One of the famous poems of Ninoy Aquino, "End's Beginning". End's Beginning Prison Poem of Ninoy August 11, 1973 What now? What next? When will this end? Man is born free to live to live in chains. To be born is to die To love is to struggle, endure, suffer, sacrifice for what? For whom? Freedom, liberty, happiness zenith of human aspirations But does he really want freedom? Can he appreciate liberty? Which comes first security of happiness food or freedom? Peace at any cost or liberty? A living Filipino or a dead hero? Why struggle, life is short "Enjoy while there's time" After all, life ends in the grave. Advice of the sage! Sweat and tears water the seed Seed falls and grows, Bear fruits and dies. Falls, grows again Dies, grows again. Man is trapped In a vicious circle round and round there is no escape "There are no tyrants where there are no slaves." Cry and fathom despair to understand hope - to discover the meaning of love Love and live Live and die. Nothing to nothing hole to hole womb to tomb tears for birth tears for death water to water. Live to die Die to live Kill freedom Long live tyranny That Freedom may be BORN AGAIN!
