The Invisible Chains Poem by Rose Kanana
The Invisible Chains
We are not physically chained
But freedom we have not
Oh dearest freedom why are you elusive?
For how long do we remain in the shadows of invisible chains?
Why are the invisible chains painful than the metallic chains?
Close to three decades we saw no fences yet we were chained
Our hands and legs had no metal chains but we remained chained
Why is freedom so elusive?
Respect humanity by breaking physical chains
Respect humanity by breaking emotional chains
Respect humanity by non violation of rights chains
Respect humanity by breaking the hate chains
Oh freedom! why are you so elusive?
We have nothing left to lose
You ripped us off our pride through rape
You ripped us off the remaining dignity by making us queue for hours for assistance
You ripped us off the remaining dignity by profiling us as criminals
You ripped us off the remaining dignity by allowing us to share a bedroom with our grown up children
Oh freedom! why are you so elusive?
How we yearn for freedom
How we yearn for emancipation
How we yearn for freedom to tour the continent
How we yearn for freedom to partake into the state plans
How we yearn for freedom to be human beings
Freedom, oh freedom why are you so elusive?
A very conscious provoking poem Rose. Lets break the chains and be human.
Seriously this is what you need.A situation where you reach out to the society is great.Educative sis.
Civil unrest/war pushes us to the corner... How we yearn for freedom How we yearn for emancipation How we yearn for freedom to tour the continent How we yearn for freedom to partake into the state plans How we yearn for freedom to be human beings Freedom, oh freedom why are you so elusive?
Still you can remain free, as freedom is not a gift from any human creature. It is a gift from your Creator. So inspire of all chains you can remain free, as freedom is a human mood and state of mind and Good work ROSE.
Very deep message Rose We have nothing left to lose You ripped us off our pride through rape You ripped us off the remaining dignity by making us queue for hours for assistance You ripped us off the remaining dignity by profiling us as criminals You ripped us off the remaining dignity by allowing us to share a bedroom with our grown children Oh freedom! why are you so elusive? May God strengthen us.
