Silence your thoughts,
You should be seen, not heard,
Two steps behind the man you walk
You are not allowed to speak
For you are nothing but property
And can be easily replaced.

False propaganda pints us against one another
You are not a sister,
You are competition,
You are not my mother,
You are the crazed woman my father warned me against
You are not friend
But foe,

But what am I to do with these unspoken words
Unshared thoughts,
Unshed tears,
I can recite you my pain
But find myself unable to recite my happiness,
For who would listen to the babbles of a woman?

On the ledge of sanity
Borderline insanity,
Sinking in the pool called society,
She is no longer sure of her name
Or of her true purpose.

The enemy attacks,
And we fight back,
Military colours,
Dress us from head to toe,
We chant the chants of peace,
Yet our actions betray our cause,

Blood stains our hands,
Are we any different,
Then the so called "enemy"?
No, we are but their reflection

Mankind's pride leads only to destruction,
The fate of nations
Crumble under his decisions,

Are we any better then the criminals we lock in cages?
Yes, of course we are!
Murderers are punished!
Unless they **** in large numbers *
To the sound of trumpets.

We live by an eye for an eye philosophy and in the end we are all blind.
*quote that inspired this poem by Voltaire.
