Spark
Voices in the dark
Madness, that defiant spark
Words, Rhythm, Poetry, Rhyme
Escape, Express
The Truth is mine.
My speech on paper,
The world unkind,
Speak out with thunder
Expand your mind.
Broken family, Breaking home
Pencil, Pen, I’m patching holes.
Screaming fonts, Punctuated silence
Words have power beyond this violence.
I’m reaching out, crawling in,
Purging, Birthing, Dropping tears.
Transform, Transcend, Remain the same,
Whatever it takes,
They’ll know my name.
