Liberty, I say thee in tremble’s voice, defending my fate upon gallows high. My chosen life’s dream, and willful desire. Is this my fate of choice, to swiftly die? As blood does flow and wind the river’s course into the tides and reeds of once calm seas. My heart shall beat but naught of my repent and thee, thy traitor, I’ll not ye appease. Virgin, the lands upon the windward shore where forests groom the skies and brightest stars. Where foul shall soar soft rising winds freely impeded not by cold and rusted bars. As oceans shall conquer and crush the crown. As waters shall fall from storm filled skies. As life shall this body, draw from, expire. As triumph shall shine of these lifeless eyes. Freedom comes harshly though a dream is filled while bones lay drying, and life’s blood is spilled. |

(big hugggsssssss) I have so much respect for those brave, powerful figures in history who sacrificed their lives for the good of others, and no act of love will ever come close to matching that of Jesus Christ! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is liberating, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |
