Poem -

Happiness is within.

Can't shake this feeling inside of me,
feels like my soul wants to break free,
keep turning my head to see whats around,
sirens are blaring somewhere downtown,
too many voices screaming my name,
the boys from the old town, said I was to blame,
can't shake this feeling inside of me,
its a bloody mess here, look at all this debris.

Keep turning my head to see whats around,
but all I see is an abandoned broken town,
clouds of darkest grey over my head,
furious voices repeating what I said,
can't shake this feeling of unease.
my neck is under the sword of Damocles,
I don't believe in ghosts, but their knocking persists,
taking a chance at freedom, I couldn't resist.

Can't shake this feeling inside of me,
but every man has a right to be free,
had to move on from the old ways,
I lit the fuse and set the old town ablaze,
said goodbye to their familiar customs,
found me a new life with fresh wisdom,
I keep turning my head to see whats around,
I see the horizon, I no longer feel tightly bound.

Too many voices screaming my name,
but your conditions and traditions were to blame,
bound by obligated loyalty and knowing your place,
feeling claustrophobic and no breathing space,
you pretended life was perfect, it was a living hell,
so, my old friends, it was liberating to say farewell,
don't want to shake this feeling inside of me,
I found my own happiness, can't you see.
