Freedom

***



Freedom

As I slowly speak out loud

to taste  the sense within

Of so simple word

As freedom



Why does

it overwhelm me

With melancholy?

Or do I still sence fragrance

of blood



Why  do I still hear the cry

Of warriors from elsewhere

Fighting for their rights

Giving their lives

For Freedom?



Right of every human being

But many aren?t allowed

To breathe the fragrance

Of so costly word

As freedom



Freedom

A small simple word

But it contains much more

More than history ever holds

'cause it's a part of every soul



So please cherish always

the freedom from within

'cause without doing that

you can't fight for

Freedom
