Analysis of Freedom to speak



I'm here in this world,
Observing and listening.
Patience is probably my strongest virtue.

I'm a long tangle of cord,
That could be heading towards oblivion or paradise.
I don't know, but what I do know
Is I will standby my decisions little or large.

I'm a man of my word, I hope to always be.
No matter the outcome of my future,
I shall follow Mt heart to the end of time.
I know what I must do, to succeed in life.
To help myzelf, so I'm able to help others.

No matter he cause, I will stand strong.
Never flinching in the face of depravity,
Or any source of evil.

My life will be worth living
To be surrounded in darkness was my past.
I stood firmly with a light to guide me out of the abyss,
Hope is never lost to those with the will to stand.

Nomenclature,
 Richard faite Thompson II
