Freedom
Freedom, what is it?
Does it come from within?
If you are a twit
At this question you’d grin
But, without freedom
What would we be?
Does it define us?
What does it decree?
We can’t see it, or touch it
It’s not even there
But when our freedom is gone
We all weep in despair
Heroes fight for it
Brave lives are lost
Yet look at this world
Is it worth the cost?
People are dying
Children but starved
Yet through these victims
Freedom is carved
But what is this freedom?
I don’t understand
For the sake of this concept
No life is deemed grand
Unfortunately so,
For the cost is so great
We need this freedom
For it evens out hate
