A Worthy Cause

Freedom is unfettered living,
It is unrestricted access to
 life's pursuit and treasures,
It is an equitable distribution for all,
Fair judgement and open playground,
I’m not held bound,
I belong to myself,
I’m not afraid to talk,
My voice is my weapon,
The prison doors do not stand in wait, 
Nightfall does not scare me,
All stand on equal footing,  
No slave, no freeborn,
Fight or flight,
Freedom is a worthy cause,
Its aberrant, a shattered hope,
A light kept in obscurity.
