in the darkness
concealed in silence
fear slaughters the innocent
gorging on the joys of baby smiles
consuming the happiness of the elderly past
a hideous laugh pumping adrenaline
eyes clenched, arms unwrapped
abused, crippled and maimed
rip off the shackles of control
release endocrines of exuberance
swirl into a tidal wave 0f rapture
be free
free to become inebriated with life
stumbling over tearful laughter
live life, live happy
be in the moment of joy
