Just Beyond, the freer world awaits...
A cormorant flies across The still, bounded waters of the Dam, As the free bird glides over it with ease, It seems to chide the water, and tease, Just beyond, the freer world awaits... My self-adorned shackles, Yet bruising the ankles, Seem to clang louder, and convey, Just beyond, the freer world awaits... The weight restricting the freedom, Promising to get lighter, as it cries Act, consolidate, decide, and quicker Just beyond, the freer world awaits... A moist breeze caresses the towering green mountain; The embrace comfortingly says Don't worry, just a little beyond, the freer world awaits...
