Freedom is the freedom to say
"I'll think of something new today."
Freedom is the freedom to know
"I choose where my mind shall go."
Freedom is the freedom to prove
I'll not be forced to stay or move;
Freedom is the freedom to write
And find my way out of the night.

Thanks.

I wrote it in about 30 seconds. Everybody else had a poem on freedom, and I was feeling left out. I'm sensitive that way...

Welcome to the freedom club. It is a good poem for 30 secs. Hey isn't that a record? (flips through the Guiness)
