Democracy will not come
Today, this year
Nor ever
Through compromise and fear.
I have as much right
As the other fellow has
To stand
On my two feet
And own the land.
I tire so of hearing people say,
Let things take their course.
Tomorrow is another day.
I do not need my freedom when I'm dead.
I cannot live on tomorrow's bread.
Freedom
Is a strong seed
Planted
In a great need.
I live here, too.
I want freedom
Just as you.

Thank you.
I feel your pain and sadness about how PP residents have been treated. And now you have to cope with the loss of Mr Chiam.
As a fellow Singaporean, please accept my apology. Please do not lose hope or give up on Singapore. Keep writing; keep posting.
