Freedom

Hajar Mulder
In the mind lies unlimited freedom
If we allow ourselves
It's our very own kingdom

The body restricts our freedom
Unless we starve ourselves
Freedom needs a nourished kingdom

No air no life no freedom
We like to fly ourselves
To an air castle kingdom

It belongs to freedom
Not only to neatly pile the shelves
But to cut them to pulp at random

Together we make freedom
Others are no part of ourselves
They want their own kingdom

My mind's flight is my freedom
Yet minds like to connect among themselves
With those it allowed into its kingdom
Boundaries make freedom within my shelves

    Thank you! Freedom is so important. But it's challenging too.
