Unbound and freed by Socrates-
To live and dream and spread the word
Of lessons often left unheard.
For from within, one finds their peace. I like the poem overall a lot. I wish there were a way to to remain internalized at first, rather than "spread the word," which is something that seems so outgoing and externally verbal - rather than leading to an internal conversation that finds peace. Maybe "to live and dream the once absurd"
I'm free to think and do as I please.
No walls or chains or locks or keys
Can suffocate or dominate
My innate need to cogitate. Using "cogitate" might stop the flow of your message a bit.

Opposing vile tyrannies-
A call to all, though few will heed.
By my own will I intercede.
For from within, one finds their peace.
I won’t be bound by foreign will.
No rule so bold and brash and shrill. So good!
Shall box my precious sanctity
Of individuality.
By my own will I have found peace.
