Freedom.
One word.
It only has meaning if you allow it to.
Nothing can silence it. Not pen n'or a sword.
Freedom.
Being able to fight for what you believe.
Ignoring the taunts and boos,
Ignoring authorities that stand in your way.
Freedom.
Being able to bend the rules without consequences.
Being able do do what you want without restraints.
No rules or guidelines. only you and your thoughts.
Freedom.
Nothing can silence it.
Don't even try
Or else those who fight for it will fight back.
I end with saying,
Freedom belongs to us all.
If you can't fight for yourself, fight for freedom.
It's the only thing we've got to hold on to.
