Freedom Sweet Liberty Freedom to give my heart when love calls me The chance to give my love her chance to be I don’t want to sign a binding contract at all I need to be free to wander to rise and to fall To breathe in the blessed air of freedom flow And to stand in loves sunshine and just glow Freedom to walk the highways of my own road To reap the benefits of the seed love has sowed I don’t want to be tethered, tied to this one place I need to be free to fly and to soar in loves race To feel the wind beneath my wings lifting me And to bathe in the delight of wondrous beauty Freedom to bask in the light feeling it within To wrap it around me letting love enter in I don’t want to be confined or be held down I need to choose to wear loves elegant gown To take the chance if I wish to join the dance And to opt whether I will take up this chance Freedom to wander whither or wherever I will To come and stay, for me to roam or to be still I don’t want to be chained against loves wall I need to know I will be fee to answer loves call To be free, to not be held, to have sweet liberty And I’ll then walk beside love happy and free Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

The form was stable.. very based. I liked that part of the poem a lot. The sentences were practically of same length, creating a good flow. Id hate to be confined as well  Thanks for the thoughts....
