Free Bird

Away I must run,
I will run far into the hot afternoon sun,
I will travel for many of miles,
This I know will take me quite awhile,
Misunderstandings are to be expected,
Animosity again has been detected,
When I look in the mirror, I will tell you what I see,
A tired, strung out woman looking back at me,
Someone that many have grown to resent,
So many mixed messages that I have been sent,
It is time that I begin this journey,
You see, before, I was in no big hurry,
I admit that I have enjoyed my time doing what I did, it did at one time make sense,
But now, things have gotten out of hand, it is much to intense,
Although we sure did have a lot of fun,
Partying, getting high out in that hot afternoon sun,
Unfortunately all of that fun,
Lead me to not act as a responsible mother to  my daughter and son,
Luckily for me, I have been hit with what they call reality,
Onto a new life for little ol' me,
I must ran fast, for this bird has finally been set free.
