I know the pain you feel is deep,
your want from life is simple peace.
And though I cannot guarantee,
please listen closely, as I speak.

Presently you stroll alone,
searching for a hand to hold.
You feel your sorrow in your bones,
in harshest sun, you still feel cold.

Pre - dawn, however, is darkest night
that must be followed by morning light.
I pray you won't give up the fight,
the universe will set things right.

I know at times, it seems unclear
that happiness is always near.
But wholly I believe my dear,
someday soon, you'll find some cheer.
Can you guess
My hidden secret
Where in darkness
You will feel pain
But also pleasure
With a forbidden taboo
For nobody will know

A life full of history
I really wish I could erase those memories
They are my dark past mystery
Yeah, it hurts and still does leave me jittery

A soul both dark and light
A spirit both fighter and lover
A heart both strong and gentle

I speak for injustice
I fight for the bullied
Yet I tremble with fear
To the darkest of human spear

I was told I had to define myself
I'm either this or that

It doesn't feel quite right
To choose one but not the other
For I am both

So I abandon and take flight
Finding my own heavenly shelter
Protecting my innocent light
A poetry of me struggling to keep my light and at the same time using darkness to defend myself.

Do you hear society crumbling?
Do you see the cowards fleeing?
Do you feel the burning?

The streets are filled with the screams of women and children
Hell is on Earth but you don't even realize it yet
The forgotten shall remember this day

You pray that God bless all you have
While the forgotten have nothing
They have lost all empathy

Your being is a mockery
May the forgotten have mercy
The desolation shall be all we see

Close your eyes
Dig your grave
The forgotten and I shall remember this day
Pretty brutal if I do say so myself lol
