The Final Flight to Freedom

Silent through the years  
Like a giving tree  
You kept cutting branches  
Shredding me by decree  
   
Quiet as harmless rock  
Sitting by your side  
You kept smashing your hammer  
Cracking my core inside  
   
Heart blossomed like a flower  
So many times sitting beside
Hoping you would hold me tender  
But got plucked and discarded aside  
   
Finally, I became a bird  
In this heartless nest  
You tried to severe my wings  
But I soared and flew away, for the best.  
   
I forgive you for all    
That you have done    
My soul is free of you    
Finally my freedom has come  
   
Open blue sky with sweet release  
The light has touched me I am finally at peace .....
