No More Tears

Colleen presents us with the opportunity to choose our own words and format for this week’s writing challenge. I chose Spirit and Free.

I’ve watched another

Gasping for their final breath

As they left this world

I have watched as their Spirit

Was freed from a life of pain

farmers market meanderers

They wandered freely

Amidst the colors, and smells

No thought required

surrender

I thought about it

There is nothing to fight for

I am free to choose
