i remember a story
that i heard long time ago
about a baby elephant who's trained from birth
to be tied to an enormous tree trunk,
being trained not to escape.
even as the years pass by,
and as the baby elephant grows into it's adult size
the baby elephant remains psychologically intact
that it can't escape its terrain
when obviously, this elephant can.
it's kind of like that.
it just feels like i have been entrapped in a cage
for all of my life.
even though the cage bars no longer exists
or never even existed at all?
i still can't seem to escape my own barriers.
i think that i'm a baby elephant
but in actuality
i am an adult elephant
with no cage at all.
freedom reigns
