Enlighten


Like a wildfire, it spreads

The hatred, the anger

Like a domino effect, it follows

The pain, the sorrow

Driven by rage

Control is lost

Revenge is key

 

Like hunters, we kill

No remorse, no regret

Like pathogens, we invade

No reason, no purpose

Driven by nature

Logic is lost

Revenge is key

 

Hope remains, by itself

Waiting for change to awaken,

I speak, I write,

In hope that one day,

People see the light
