The elephant at the bird's nest
Those tremors I have although I wear my vest
aren't caused by the elephant
who landed at the bird's nest
like your diagnosis wants me to believe.
You think I'm weak and long for your treatment but I guarantee
I'm not the crybaby you like me to be
which would make you feel better about yourself.
I know how you need people to depend on you.
You believe you cure the world and brag about your skills.
Those special treatments like green smoothies, saps and pills...
they disgust me!
I do not tell a joke but speak freely,
say it out loud
'cause I finally figured it out.
You are a fraud and will always be
a nasty, abusive personality!
I...
I woke up first and for all
after you tried to poison me.
You're not a smoothie and I will never be your groupie.
Those tremors.... they are caused by you!
Have a closer look at the elephant over there he's real and my only friend
you know. I can see where it flies and lands.
And you? You can sting as many needles in me as you wish
but you can't deny I'm sane and that elephant is where it is.

It felt like freedom. The feeling of satisfaction being release from things that I am forced to do. The feelings of freedom from those people who always misunderstood others.
The story felt like freedom? I think I would call it realization.
Besides it doesn't matter if there's an elephant or not what matters we feel good, have the right to live our life the way we like it and as long as no one is harmed it's okay to be different.
Enjoy your weekend
Yes, it does. At least to me. If I am forced to live in a way that I refuse to be but then I have to, it will be like being released from prison. A prison that I myself create because of having unwillingness. Once I am able to gain courage and face every situation like it is meant for me and finding the solution to a problem on my own, it gave me freedom. Just like in the story where the person is finally able to stand up for her/him self and got free from the doctor.
That is how I felt after reading this.
