Liberty

by Yardier

She stands tall above the rest,
her tireless arm held high.
She holds the torch of Liberty,
against the eternal sky.
 
Not one person seems to care,
about the crimson cost.
Of censorship of free speech,
or individual thought.
 
Why have they forsaken her,
in this dark hour of need?
Why have they become eager,
to trade Liberty for greed?
 
Where have all their big dreams gone,
did they trade them for lies?
Will they wallow in the mud,
like greedy pigs in the sty?
 
Those unanswered questions,
bring shackles to the mind.
Break them loose with God’s truth,
leave the traitors far behind.
 
She stands tall above the rest,
her tireless arm held high.
She holds the torch of Liberty,
with a tear in her eye.
