The End of the Beginning

By Flying indigo express

With your free will, you may do as you choose
Did you not say this isn't a power play
Yet somehow, your will and mine are fused

Run free, wild with no restraint
My movement stopped. my liberty cropped
In shame, regarded with distain

I believed in the absence of strings
May the gods forsake the bliss that ignorance brings
It was for the strings, that I became the Fool

    I applause the preciseness of your words. In a few lines you describe this unwanted situation of false self-awareness. Thank you for sharing.
