There were beams of light before me.
Eyes wide to the rays of blue.
The night is out but the vision is blinding.
In marched the reinforcements
Witness to freedom's death
My strength was deemed impotent
Some deranged setup was planned.
Carried out by strangers hands.
Now I'm left to walk alone.
Broken was the bind of freedom and blood.
Left to lament.
Something I did not yet understand.
How I lived a life so incomplete.
I can't forgive
I watched as your world came to a halting end.
Left to walk alone
No room for conversation, yearning for a drop of solace.
I’m left in deprivation.
Chaos became reality
Congealed of pure disharmony.
The blame must fall on something.
Led away from what I love.
Look back for a glance at sorrow.
To the one who did this all.
Everyone of my suspicions brought into reality is giving me a clear vision.
The contradiction reigns as it spreads to all my thoughts and now I wonder, what more could be hiding?
Now I'm staring in the face of reality something I'm having trouble confiding until now
