Water over Blood
Your blood is poisonRaised for envy and hatredYour own blood you want to put downBecause of your lackings What’s the use of blood?If the blood is poisonGive me clear waterCleanse my heart from hatred Why is the blood boilingFull of deadly poisonEnough to hurt your own Now I knowPure water is betterThan poison blood Continue reading

The Death of Silence
SpeakAbout that day of horrorTo bring you justiceRight at your door SpeakTo go against that monsterWhose voice tried to take away yoursWith eyes even the bravest are tantalizedWith intentions of malice shookEven the devils of peril SpeakFor you are the commander of this fightYour warriors in form of family, friends, social workers and lawyers are Continue reading

Song

Portrait
Pose for the portraitLook pretty, be stillIn all the facade they’ll never knowThe secret battles you’ve foughtAll alone They’ll never sing your songYou’ve kept it locked away so long They’ll never know your storyHidden behind all your glory Your pain is but your ownToo scared to share it with anyoneThe past has hurt you muchBut Continue reading
