Free by Mary Carolyn Davies

It’s Friday, and Fridays usually make me feel free.

Free
By Mary Carolyn Davies

   Over and over
      I tell the sky:
      I am free—I!

   Over and over I tell the sea:
      —I am free!

   Over and over I tell my lover
      I am free, free!
   Over and over.

But when the night comes black and cold,
I who am young, with fear grow old;
And I know, when the world is clear of sound,
I am bound—bound.
