What Road Did You Take To Freedom?

What road did you take to freedom?


Did you sneak away in the dead of the night leaving everything and everyone you knew behind wishing it could have been different?

What road did you take to freedom?

Did you wade in the water to cover your trail, or leave a job that no longer fit who you had grown to be?


What road did you take to freedom? Did you leave a relationship that didn’t honor the truth of who you really are because you had grown to know you deserved better?


What road did you take to freedom? Did you hop on the innerground railroad or come on a boat greeted by Lady Liberty?

What road did you take to freedom, education, art, travel, the longing of your own heart’s desire?

What road did you take to freedom?

Did you climb your way out of a bottle one step at a time making amends along the way?

Did you go searching for the road or did it rise to meet you?


What road did you take to freedom?

Did you seek aid from a friend of a friend or did you follow the glimmering lights of the drinking gourd?


What road did you take to freedom?
