Freedom
Defined.
By design
Salve to an understanding
Freedom is caged.
Shackled by the slumber of doubt
Without faith
Freedom wastes away
Like the tepid water running out of a once fresh mango
Slowing turning the fruit into its own grave
Drowned.
Burdened by habits of thinking
Freedom waits
Like a puppet in the wings
For someone
To pull the strings.
Fear activated
It mimics life.
I am saddened by the victory
Of fear over freedom
Once again.
When will we be free to be free?
