Independence
Updated: Nov 14, 2022

Independence
From the forces of oppression
We shed our chains
Walk free in equality
Can this really ever be
In a world of inequality
The Great Dream
The Grand Delusion
Politics of confusion
Money and power
Control the tower
No more guiding light
Only storms and blight
We are not free
Do not be blind
The rules and laws
For all not kind
We are bound
Controlled by power
Forces of goodness
Struggle to flower
The truth is before us
Yet we do not see
Asleep or numb
We struggle to be
Healthy and well
To our capacity
I write from a tower
Holding a lamp
To light the path
For those who seek
The way to freedom
True and lasting
Beyond the laws
That bind and limit
Open your eyes
And your loving heart
The light is bright
Balancing the dark
Nothing to lose
Everything to gain
Let go of your burdens
And your pain
Step-by-step
Set your course
In kindness and love
No remorse
Do not be distracted
By the games that are played
That blind and bind you
To illusions displayed
Free from ignorance
Stake your claim
In love’s dimension
All goodness remain
Walk in kindness
And you will find
The path that merges
Heart and mind
Where love converges
Intentions align
