it is like we are socially trapped
in a world that rejoices in violence
and destruction
we are stuck in a dominating time
where hands are raised to welcome
fires of hell
while we weep for the
gardens of paradise.
we are the same bullets
ricocheted off innocent beings
the words bullies sneer to feel
better about themselves,
selfish, morose, and vindictive
i start to question when this will change.
even the little things in life require
a well behaved and thought out procedure,
you are careful with what you say,
how you act - a manifested ettiquette that
consumes you
and we could do nothing to change our self.
this social rule has won over our mind.
we are simply pawns in its game
our movement, our voices, our choices are restricted
strings hold us and control us, a strong
unbreakable hold like a puppet.
it is hard to get out of these demonised clutches.
