Cost of Freedom

                  Cost of Freedom

                                  -i-
Turning his head for one last look of home, giddiness washes over him as he walks away. Eerily ensconced emotions endlessly echo. Leaving it all behind, the cost of freedom.

                                  -ii-
Frail young body racked with pain. Callously cancer claimed creation.One last labored breath. Leaving it all behind, the cost of freedom.

                                  -iii-
Found the one to share my life with, giving self away. Joys and sorrows in the journey. Gladly giving grace gazing face to face. Forsaking all others, cost of freedom.
