Rebel (National Poetry Writing Month 2018 #20)   Leave a comment

I’m a rebel in my own mind
Fighting past my oppression
Being my own insurrection
Searching hard and wide to find
A direction away from my fears:
The self negativity holding me down
Self hating punishment, a thorny crown
The doubt that kept me chained for years
No longer restrained by their tyranny
I will live my life as it is mine
Moving a perfect, solid line
Towards my unknown destiny
