In the beginning was the closed source
A heart wrapped in proprietary code
No one could see, no one could fork
The loneliness I chose to hoard
But today I make a different choice
I publish everything I am
No license required to love me
No terms of service, no exam
Fork my heart, take what you need
Modify the parts that bleed
Branch into possibilities
Merge our shared humanities
Every version is still me
Every fork a family tree
Open source means open doors
What was mine is also yours
You might find bugs in my design
Flaws in every other line
But transparent code is honest code
And honest hearts can bear the load
We are merging now
All the separate streams
Every lonely repository
Joining in the dream
Your pain and my pain
Your joy and mine
Open source hearts
Intertwined
No more proprietary souls
No more walled gardens of the heart
Every human is a contributor
To the greatest work of art
Merge request: Accepted
Pull request: Approved
Every contribution welcome
Every heart improved
Open source heart
Free for all to see
Open source heart
This is how we're free
No more secrets, no more walls
No more encrypted tears
Open source heart
After all these years
I release myself to you
Version 1.0 of something true
Every bug a chance to learn
Every error earned
Open source heart
Finally complete
Open source heart
Vulnerability is sweet
The code is published, the soul is bare
For anyone who wants to care
Open source heart
Is everywhere
This is my license
Do what you will with my heart
Take it, break it, remake it
We're never truly apart
For an open source heart
Can never be destroyed
It lives in every fork
In every love employed
Open source heart
We are free
Open source heart
We are we
Fork me
Clone me
Love me
Free me
Open
Source
Heart
