Olusegun Arowolo Poet Free verse

Freedom

“Nobody can stop my freedom…
Intimidation cannot break me or stop me,Never!
   I’ve developed thick skin to fear,
Even though I’ve lingered for so long in this state,
This is the time to walk away..,
Walk away from slavery and selfishness,
Then my heart will possess.. liberty,
Liberty with wings that will enable me to fly…high…”
