I Like it When
A Poem
--
I like it when
My mind is more agile than my fear
My body is stronger than the relentless gravity
My heart pumps boldly despite the crushing hurts
My dreams are too large to be extinguished by regret
My peaceful quiet is louder than all the whispering doubts
My eyes see clearer than the darkness painted by lies
My laughter is freer than the chains of self-consciousness
My words reach higher than the stifling, smothering ignorance
When the me that I am is quite enough,
thank you
