    Freedom Jan Struther

    This poem celebrates being freed from the pains of love. The speaker describes how being in love enslaved and tortured them, making them blind, lost, caged, and mad. Now that they are out of love, they can see clearly, their path is plain to see, they hold the key to their freedom, and have regained their sanity. The speaker feels like a free and proud person again, having overcome the torment of being controlled by love when they were once a god.

    Freedom

    Now heaven be thanked, I am out of love again! I have been long a slave, and now am free; I have been tortured, and am eased of pain; I have been blind, and now my eyes can see; I have been lost, and now my way lies plain; I have been caged, and now I hold the key; I have been mad, and now at last am sane; I am wholly that was but half of me. So a free man, my dull proud path I plod, Who tortured, blind, mad, caged was once a God.

    Jan Struther
