Love Poem: Free Spirit

Free Spirit

I've washed my hands of religion 
rather than let it brainwash me. 
I'm no longer a prisoner being held captive 
by those bars of lies and deceit. 

Religions build walls and divide us 
holding God as their hostage is their way. 
Preaching the only way to heaven 
Is to believe in everything they say. 

But I'm no longer a prisoner of religion 
my mind has been set free. 
I believe in goodness and spiritual love 
and that God resides in me.
