Road to Freedom




BY CAROLE NICHOLS

I gaze upon the stars, and then,
Nighttime shadows pressing in,
Memories creep of where I've been
And where I long to be again.

I see the paths I've walked upon,
Often rough and all alone.
I wonder where my life has gone
As I yearn to feel the warmth of dawn.

I could have gone the easy way,
But in my heart I could not stay.
I'm reaching for freedom, come what may.
I will start my life anew this day.
