Freedom Poem by Fab Ricciardi

To be free, totally free
You must have been
Enslaved some time before,
You have to know
What it’s like
To have chains
Bounding your every move.
Someone or something
Must have opposed you before,
Held you down,
Locked you up before
And
When you finally break free
From the chains
That are holding you down,
Will you really be free?

The road to freedom
Is not an easy one,
Many of us don’t realize
How locked up we all are,
How enslaved we all are,
Locked up in our life,
Enslaved in our jobs,
The nine to five rat race
The tedious daily routine,
Wake up
Kids to school
Go to work, eat
Pick kids up
Go home, eat
Go to sleep

Is this what living
Is all about?

When will you be,
Totally free?

You will be free
When you realize
That
There are no rules
There is no schedule
You just live
Live to the fullest.
Live, Love
Laugh, Learn and Teach

Live
And
Be free
