Freedom?

I have noticed,
over my short time,
that there is no strength,
or sense in being alone,
but in being united,
you become an army,
a group,
a solid hope,
a noticeable wave of opinion,
sweeping across the land,
you make a dent,
as an army,
you stand united,
to fight,
and to pledge allegiance to your cause,
but as one you stand un-noticed,
unchanging,
with little affect on those around you.
Although an army is so powerful,
it needs a leader,
a solitary person to stand,
above the crowd,
and give unquestionable direction,
to direct the change,
and empower the people,
a group has to be lead,
where one person can wander aimlessly,
to be not alone,
requires direction,
and hope,
because despair can fester,
in an aimless group,
where as alone,
the lies,
and comfort you bring yourself,
cannot be questioned,
or down played.
Alone your power is yours,
but together your power is shared,
take you pick,
all you can do is try and choice a path,
alone,
or together,
whether to direct and believe,
or follow and despair,
alone we stand a chance,
of supporting ourselves,
of finding our own direction,
but together we must follow,
and give to the group,
no great evil,
but perhaps,
a great loss.
