THE FREE MAN

Fetters around my ankle,
And the wings are clipped,
A paean whistle in the air,
The Victory is finally here.

She arrived last night,
I was sleeping deep,
When the dawn broke,
I saw her, she was a beauty.

She touched my bruised fustian chest,
And the Pain released my whipped soul.
She smiled and the Morning star shone,
Whispering that she will stay.

Is this a dream or I have escaped,
My mind is devoid,its still,
My eyes wipes away the umbrage,
My heart embrace the truth.

Fifty years of my living,
And the maelstorm that surrounded us,
The attempts, the failures, the sacrifices,
All merged into her.

Those nights that i felt weak, and cried,
I realized, that she was always watching.
For these eyes.gleaming before me,
Made me a sentinent man!

I was betrayed by my blood,
And cast away from the world I fought,
My life could have been easier their way,
But against the words in the Holy Book.

Did i belong here?
For I failed to be an epigone of Distrust,
And I wondered where is my land,
How i will find the way back.

And as she sat next to me,
I realized she will take me there,
When tomorrow i will be stoned,and die,
I will be a free and a happy man.

And together we waited for the hour,
And when they will come, i will smile and leave,
But will come back for i want them to see,
That my life was rewarded in the end!
