I Am Free

You aim to me keep confined. You aim to shackle me in chains. You want to silence me . But I won't let you keep me here. I have broken out of the box. I have broken free from the chains. I have found my voice. Alexis Y. 03/30/2021

Great way to write this. You are boxed in, perhaps barely escaping, but no matter how narrowly you found your voiceM

Well said Alexis. We all need to stand up and say we won't stand for Big Brother taking over our lives. Good Stuff. God Bless, JB

No greater power on earth then when we finally find our voice and the strength of our within. Thank you for sharing Alexis
