A gush of wind hits my face
as I run to be free.
A feeling I never noticed
cause you kept me locked.
Now that I have escaped
you could no longer control,
so I run quickly.
The beautiful butterfly's greet my arrival
thus waiting.
I know I am let go
no longer suffering from your wrath.
The scars on my arms
are far gone.
I can no longer feel pain
from which you've given me.
I am free, and awake.
Every beautiful things awaits.

The author's comments:
this piece represents a girl who just went through bullying. She finally spoke up to the bully and no longer bullied. She feels free from everything and feels alive.
