I need the sea, the highway and some freedom
Ride
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
Lana Del Rey song and energy. Make me wish to break free and celebrate being alive.
Ride
True freedom my friend is dancing with the wind. Singing song till the morning light.
Knowing open highways and not being controlled by money and possessions.
I want the sea, the mountains and to taste freedom.
I have lost my way. Yesterday I put my feet than body into Lake Huron.
I realized I forgot who I was.
Today I’m locked-up and caged. I accepted the rules of profiteers and cold hearten people.
I must learn for the sake of my children. Can’t laid dead for liars and naysayers.
Ride to better places an thoughts my friend, to the open and free roads. Open locked door and swim in the deep sea and stand with grandchildren on cliffs watching the Hawks and eagles fly.
We are prisoners by poor decision.
Just ride with unknown destination. Find secret and quiet places. Touch the coldness of the water.
Embrace the trees and thank the Gods of life. For new day and chance.
Find the free people. People who have time to dance, laugh and taste the sweetness of life.
We are many.
Lana Del Rey whispered to me in song. Just ride. Leave the bad days behind.
Walls of prisons can be took down if we don’t give in to false hope and dreams.
The only limit we have are the one’s we had create.
Dance, sing and laugh. Take the kids to the lakes, sea and forest. Show them from the peak of a mountain.
The world is large and free. Live! don’t just work and wait for death.
Coyote
John, your writing is good and this song is amazing…I could listen to LDR all day long and yet long for more….One of my favourites. But I must say that I do appreciate your taste in music.

It can. I did a few times. Rode the Winter storms and roamed ancient cities with no place to go. Freedom can be pieces of a life. Thank you for reading and the comment.

My near 19 years old had just got the job at the bakery. She loves it. But the burden of the new world has had started to show its face and she sees the world differently already. She felt the world starting to revealing the other side of its face and truly the sense of freedom is far from showing. She starts to learn of what this world can do and be, and what capabilities she has to reach out to certain possibilities in her life.
Yes, the world is harder nowadays while long ago the world was simpler in some ways. Yes, we all do hope that our children know the freedom …
