lady liberty

i watch railroads trail behind me 
a woman chases after, out of breath
her shoulders, never relieved
give me liberty or give me death

a woman chases after, out of breath
her children ripped from her grasp
give me liberty or give me death
how long will this last?

her children are ripped from her grasp 
mountains for breasts, waterfalls for tear's
how long will this last?
it has already been fourteen years.
