Skin

Time stood still as the waves crushed against the sand.
The wind raped my hair as I choked on the sea breeze.
Here I felt my re-birth, my rejuvination, my second youth take place.
Everything I had ever lived was washed away,
my soul was cleansed.
The grains of sand underneath my feet passionately kissed my toes,
I felt slight enlightenment as the water splashed against my ankles.
Finally I screamed, releasing all I had held in,
It was there right at the beach, where I finally shed my skin.

Oh Broken Glass....how explosive.....now remember that moment when you set yourself free!!!
Remember it was you that you were in bondage too!, It was you, It was you, Broken Glass......now you can expand....fly high like the eagle into the sky. The boundries you've set......are all gone....never again imprision yourself again, BrokenGlass.....
Stay Free!
Wonderful inspirational Poem....please remember that moment!
