Do We Enjoy Freedomin Democratic Government? Poem by Ramesh T A

Has democracy allowed the freedom we are supposed to enjoy?
Enjoyment of freedom, liberty and rights are there in law;
Law being imposed by executives seems to deprive all freedom;
Freedom is a sort of opium we enjoy as in dreams of our life!

Life with laws, social conventions, and culture is uneasy;
Uneasy is one who wears the crown, it is said, is true...;
True it is to safeguard freedom, we have to pay some price;
Price we are paying should not be too much to bear for all!

All freedom to think, speak and do all things everyone wishes;
Wishes of all people seem to be difficult to implement ever;
Ever democracy seems to be a lesser form of evil, all feel...;
Feel of all surely needs reforms to make freedom enjoyable..!

Enjoyable time of democracy may come perhaps only by developments;
Developments by education, discipline and reforms, freedom is good!
