Falling
I am happy.
Your greatest shadow
lights up with hope.
Your arms in manacles,
your dreams in captivity.
Later, they shame you.
Tell you that your last dream is walking out the door.
But,
the condition you are in
allowed you to cash in your miseries.
But I promised,
I guarenteed.
That your rights to be happy, will rise, seated no more.
nobody should shame your dignity, strip it from your hands.
You walk,
alone, allowed to fall.
waiting to be staisfied
unspeakable.
our only scream today is as mighty as a lion.
no, not, cannot,
should not be the horror
on our lips
Do not have injustice.
Freedom has transformed
how little character we have
if we judged.
Sing the meaning
that rings
from mountain
to city
every state,
shall speed up day.
Fo you,
Great, might, words.
I cry now,
for you.
You are falling.
