Lost In Freedom

lost in freedom
i opened my eyes 
oh is morning
another new day 
another new privilege
am alive so am blessed
what else is needed
if not to live for the day 
till it night comes 
what a freedom
what a blessing
yet around me 
are circumstances beyond
my control
despite am in control 
of my self 

lost in freedom
living through life 
i realise am human 
in the midst of too 
many devalued humans
who got no hope on 
intelligent humans 
except from God
who they live to 
Sacrifice all life gaves to
in the midst of this humans
i learned what humanity means
i was touched to live among 
them realising how much 
humour i could acquire to 
live up to my virtue
is so beautiful when 
one can live freely in 
a land of emptiness
of material wealth 

lost in freedom
i got lost in a famous system
i got depressed in getting civilised
i never understood today reality 
on freedom 
so i realise life is not a game 
but a legacy 
as i discover my soul 
in spirituality 
through the connection 
i share from the universe
of love where all it takes 
to be human is found 
yet some say am mad 
they that are too intelligent
say am crazy 
yet if i have followed 
there opinion 
by now i would have been
lost in freedom
