Independence

Though you are a man

physically speaking

there is still a child inside

emotionally screaming

tearing you apart from within

Independence needed

maybe not an option

leads to frustration

in all walks of life

ripping at your very soul

Capability questionable

wanting to live your own life

that first leap of faith

real or imaginary

cutting the umbilical cord

We all go through this

at least once in our lives

leaving the safety of home

choosing our own pathway

standing on your own two feet!
