Free Spirit

I'm not lookin' for no complications

Don't ask me for any explanations

Don't need no justification

For my little incidental deviations



I don't have to answer to you

I don't ask you why you do the things you do

You can offer your suggestions and advice

But don't think it's gonna make me think twice



I've made up my mind I'm gonna do it my way

Now let's see what you have to say

I don't wanna be tied down now

Don't you get too close or I'll stop coming around



If you want committment, don't come runnin' to me

cuz I'm a free spirit and I gotta be free

There's no way anyone can have me

That's just the way it's gotta be

Author's Notes/Comments: 

written ages ago
still has meaning to me cuz I never wanted to marry and should never have done it but live with the consequences I need to get rid of asap for my own sanity...anyways...I am truly a free spirit and still feel that way even though I have a stupid piece of paper I wanna burn that says I am married and have it over and done with...I need to be free...I feel free anyways cuz any connection to my supposed husband was lost long ago...it has been a very long tumultuous ten years, a whole decade wasted...time for a change for the better...
