Julia C

She refuses 

to listen anymore

to tiny can't-ing voices 

that force the lid 

on what 

Never

should have been

boxed

She refuses 

to limit 

any of it anymore 

with recycled thoughts 

of shoulds 

and shouldn'ts

Silly little mind

you no longer get to 

decide

Her insides are bursting, beaming
Screaming

I'm ready!

Love says

follow me

every ray in her 

whispers

Fly Now
You are Free
