A heart can’t beat when it’s dripping on the floor.
A mind can’t hope when it’s digging its own grave.
A mouth can’t smile unless it has a reason to live.
A foot can’t step unless it has the freedom to run.
A hand can’t hold when it’s held against its will.
An eye can’t see when people are blind to its suffering.
A body can’t move when it’s shackled to a stone.
A person can’t live when he's denied the life he deserves.

You deserved so much more.
