Challenge of the Week LXXXII
Here in the USA, it is Independence Day. What does it mean to be free? Do we need to feel free to be free? Are we free? Write about freedom. Fiction or non-fiction, poetry or Prose.
Freedom?
Freedom is cruel.
She only comes when our throats have been scraped from screaming so loud
and when our feet have been bruised from ruuning so fast.
Freedom may seem so beautiful and bright,
but she'll only stay if we hold on tight.
Freedom brings comfort to situations damp and cold,
but she'll slyly slip away for things your scared to announce.
And so,
we will never truley be free,
never from ourselves.
