They say the best things in life are Free
I say the best thing in life is free...
People believe
People fight
People strive
People all want to be Free

I know why I'm Free
People who never knew me, died for me
Why do they call it Free?
The thing they call Free
Came at a terrible price
The price for Freedom
The best thing in life is Free...

Castles made of sand, slip into the sea eventually...

Fall mountains, just don't fall on me.

I enjoyed this a lot....provoked a lot of thoughts.....
like...
honestly, how free do you think you are in contrast to how free you TRULY are?

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I totally agree. Being free is the most important thing in my opinion and we all know (hopefully) that it didn't happened over night. Anyway, I really liked your poem. It's good.
