I heard nothing but the furnaces gasping for air
The wind spoke of the cities atrocities
Silence was the order of the day
Those that choose it are labeled weak
But I saw peace in it
The clouds looked red
Like her eyes
Like the pool of life she lays in
You stop when the traffic light is red and proceed when she says no
You obey a robot and yet fail to hear her cries and gain pleasure from the horror in her eyes
The litter rustled and the ominous noise it made got ignored much like her pleads
The abundant buildings across the city are humanities doppelganger, dark and empty, its former glory gone all I see is gore!
Sweetheart, you write too many rape poems
I wish it were my last
I wish the world was nice
The nation is wounded
somewhere right now a girl is a ditch praying for life!
She just took her last breath at the hands of love!
She's about to take her life because the pain he inflicted is just too much, the bruises just won't heal!
He just forced himself on her and she's convincing herself that, that's just what lovers do!
She's 10 holding her breath under her bed cos dad wanna play daddy at night!
He's 13 crying himself to sleep bcos the big boys made him bend!
He wants to tell someone but den it'd make him weak so he cuts himself instead!
He is 17 he didn't want him but she just did it he beats himself up bcos he knows it was wrong but he's man, he should be proud!
She see's him creep into the daughter's room but she turns the other eye and pretends not to see the pain in her baby's face the next morning!
He provides her with her fix her baby's pain is a small price to pay!
She's only 18 taking care of 8 members!
Their greedy mouths always open
She's in bed with the devil but as long as she keeps throwing us our piece who cares?!
Fuck!
The wind spoke of the cities atrocities
The sky remained clear
For anyone brave enough to grab the new page
For anyone who dared to see beyond the skyscrapers
For anyone who recognized the deity in the stars within themselves
Fuck this city!
