I Am Free Poem by Tameeka Smith

If I live my life
The way others see fit
There will be nothing
But a whole lot of regret
I have to live
The way that
I see fit
Life is too short
To deal with
People who's only
Goals are to see
You living miserably
It's my life
I am free
To live the way
I want to
As long as it's
According to the
Will of how God
Say that I am
Suppose to
I am going
To do what makes
Me happy
I want to
Be free to
Be and do me
No longer
Caring about how
People chose to
See me
I don't need people
Who takes away
From me
I want to live
My dreams
Have a circle
Of people
Who believes
In me the way
I believe in them
It goes
Hand and hand
Feels so good
To live as
I plan
As best as
I can
My heart is
Filled with glee
I am so happy
Because I am
Free
