I cleaned my basement today,
and it wasn’t that bad,
It wasn’t as bad as I’d thought it’d be.

It was dirty, I must confess,
I had left it for so long,
And it took a lot of work,
scrubbing every nook and cranny,
I was tired.

But I feel better within,
I feel relieved,
I feel light,
I am proud of myself,
I feel free.

So, this is what freedom feels like,
I was never going to clean this basement,
but I’m glad I did,
I like this feeling.

Now, I will keep this space forever clean.
