Freedom
I saw a child
His eyes were full of the invisible tears
He never cried but in his eyes
There were words that made me freeze
I never want to be a prisoner
Not even for a day
I never want to be chased after
Not even listen to what they say
I never want them to tell me what to do
Not even what to wear and eat
I never want them to tell me whom to pray
I know my God , He does the lead
I never want them to follow my direction
Don't want them to be in the same line
I don't want to be forced to do something
Go your way, and I go mine
I don't want to be put in a cage
looking at the world from inside
Don't want my eyes to be shining
I Just want to see the whole world Wide
Stop following my moves, i'm not a prisoner
Stop pretending that you are protecting me
Just hold me with your arms wide open like a bird
And show me the light and set me free
I couldn't do any thing to that child
Just smile and touch his head
His eyes say (i believe in hope)
I sit watching him eat his precious piece of bread
