Freedom in You

Why do I keep running
when I always end up here
where I started
facing you
and a secret held deep
in my heart
I search for freedom in others
only now to think
perhaps freedom is not what want
you are trying to tell me
the truth
but do I dare face it
have I tavelled
only to find myself
here with you once more
the demons thought defeated
perhaps not enemies
I have forgotten something
remembered only
when I look into your eyes
is what I always wanted
there after all?
