Freedom(my First Poetry) by savedbreak: 10:36am On Dec 09, 2013
---FREEDOM---
The colonial masters came
They make us slaves
They turned our kings into peasant like us
They turned our women into whores
They killed our children
They burn our homes

We cried out for freedom
For they were heartless,ruthless and vicious

Their torment make us one
We form a rebellion to end our pain
We fought for our freedom
We Chased away the wolves amongst us
We took back our belongings from the thiefs who came to rob us

Freedom at last!
But yet we cried
Years gone but peace didnt come
We thought we are freed men
But We are slaves to our evil human nature
Government looting our money
Parents selling their day old baby to enrich their pocket
Teachers raping the student before he could get her grades high
Students indulging in the art of evil cultism

What has the world turn into?
Can we ever find peace?
For We can be freemen to the naked eyes but we are still slaves to ourselves
