A Tale Untold

So I walk down the paths,
Of gravelled roads and broken pasts.

Of futures bright, all left unsaid,Silence forced, and forever laid. 

As I walk, I sweep my eyes,
Over the rocks, A hundred miles,

And See,
See the reality,

For what it is,
For what it says, 

These people,
Standing upon their graves,

No loved ones to visit,
No loved ones now lives

They are all dead,
Buried in soiled Bed. 

Some wealthy Tyrant's deed,
The lust for Power and Greed

Like a Sabre, Huge and Vile,
The many lives, it Sacrificed,

Their ghosts now stand,
Faces ashen,
With blood drenched fights,
And trails of pain. 

With hands outstretched,
They seem to ask,
Who robbed them of
Their Corporeal Mask? 

To tell the tales,
I walk down the paths ,
The gravelled roads, I take,
And leave behind my heart.
