You clip off the
wings from a butterfly
And you gift her, a
garden, and wonder why
Is she not happy?
Why, of course she
hasn’t learned
To be grateful
For what you do for
her.
Because every time
she looks at the sky,
The realization
hits harder,
She is unable to
fly.
Sure, you gave her
the freedom
When you had her
crippled,
So she may appear
to the world, free
But she knows she
is still caged.
Your kindness, your
majesty,
How dare she defy?
That ungrateful
goon,
Let her rot in her
ugliness
That will teach her
a lesson.
Why, she asked for
more,
Let her have it.
But she didn’t ask
for more, did she?
She didn’t even ask
for what was hers.
You stole from her,
her right,
And the world sang
your praises,
Because they saw
you planting roses,
They didn’t see the
thorns you hid,
Your kindness, your
majesty,
How dare she defy?
And now they see
her cry,
They mark the tears
as greed,
Stamp them as drops
of lust.
That petty little
thing,
Who’s gonna accept
her?
If it weren’t for
you.
She drips ugly,
Lacks colors.
You took her
beauty,
And she never asked
why,
Even if she dared,
You would have
choked the words out of her,
But you didn’t
wanna risk it,
So you cut off her
tongue,
But the world
didn’t see that either,
Because you fed
them lies,
And the mask you
had painted on your face,
Sold them all.
You built this
fortress,
Of façade,
No one will ever
cross,
Because no one
cares about the truth,
As long as they
have someone to blame,
And no one to
protest,
The truth will be
marked,
By the silence of
the accused.
And you’ll call
yourselves just,
You’ll call
yourselves kind,
Another voice will
be choked,
Another soul will
be caged,
In this free world
out here,
There will always
be another one,
Till the end of the
time,
There will always
be another one,
Till it becomes,
The reason behind,
The end of the
world.
Gave me goosebumps.
