Freedom Poem by Herofil Olarte

The essence of freedom
Grows stronger in wisdom
Like a rainbow after the rain
Beauty that can only be seen

Day by day I struggled to be free
In a world build with boundaries
When will it end?
To live life in a one world again

Look at us, as men
Fighting each other with no end
Innovations with cruelest intention
Ruled by few with greed ambition

Look at us, as women
Respect no longer being given
Elders shamelessly taken care by others
If only tears seen, that day you were leaven

Look at us, as children
Grows up in violence
Disrespecting our parents
And acting out seems like a video game

Is this our tradition?
Or a well planned stabilization of a nation?
A decadence of fading truth in motion
Where freedom is just only
A mere pigment of my imagination
