Give Me the Liberty

Give me the liberty to know
To utter and
To argue freely 
According to my conscience 
Such prerogatives and whims
A sinister force capable 
of crushing me at will
Above all Liberties 
Thus when the sun shines 
so am I 
But when night falls 
so are my fears
That noble faculty of reason
Not given to me to rust unused......
