Her 'Alice Band'

Holding her wavy hair from her face
to clearly see our teacher of the day,
her band makes learning easy….
Going to school....
and constantly....
wearing her band
makes her beauty
mysteriously attracting any man….
Obliviously, she is beautiful inside out
even without those head accessories.

Enlightened

I saw the light
I refused to come into it
I rejected to gaze through it
I declined…
…Why would I be afraid?
…Of the light?
I see the light again
I know I can be freed
I am unafraid…
…I have to get out of the dark.
…Now I am free.
…I have nothing to lose but my chains.
