Oh lord see me
tell me I'm still free
I see non existent chains
wrapped around me
In a world of opportunity
I thought we was free
but I have a feeling
some ones watching me
Oh lord save me
take all these eyes off of me
why is there no peace
in the land of the free
It seems to me
the only way anybody can be free
is if they are not breathing
Too right Dave, guess it will be onward going, invisible chains holding on to us, and a few very visible, such is life.
as long as freedom is bought and sold, there can be no freedom!
Good poem Dave, Big brother isalways watching! No one is ever free. Thanks
Once in a while we feel like this, particularly when we are sad! Nice poem!
'None are so hopelessly enslaved as those who falsely believe they are free' (J. W. Von Goethe) . Snowden has shown that you were right.
The only way one can be free is to be honest about life. We weave to many strings We tell to many selfish lies just to stay on top.. I love this writing. Simple, far sighted and deep. Congrats Mohabeer Beeharry I have just posted a poem. A touch of light There could be something for you there. Thank you.
Again a fantastic write.. You have concluded in a wonderful way..Loved it.
freedom, freedom, freedom is what every living longs for, i like thinking of a free society where people get equal share like any one else. Good poem Dave.

I would like to translate this poem
Well said Dave, it used to be a free country, but it seems that our freedom is being eroded away bit by bit, and slowly but surely.
