I wrote this poem during the COVID-19 lockdown period when I realised for the first time how hard it must be to live without enjoying your human rights, not to experience democracy and peace, and be affected by disasters such as the pandemic. As a scholar of human rights, I believe that rights and related concepts must have personal meaning for us before we can deliver rights-based social work services. This poem reflects my personal understanding and experiences related to freedom. I would like to perform this poem with movement.
