Hate that's left a bruise.

Oh, you know ;) Psh, poems.

Consider yourself warned,

You’ve spoken against truth.

One lie masked in blood,

Hate that’s left a bruise.

 

A speech to bring heart

To the men of your kind

Just to play a part

In what we know as time.

 

In darkness is light

So you say “Why should I?”

One who lives for truth

Should not consider lies.

 

“So it shall be written

And so it shall be done.”

Mockery at its best?

Or compliments we’ve won?

 

Speak against a nation,

Or speak against a kind.

Rid the world of scum,

Through music and a rhyme.

This poem is just what I needed to hear. I just lost a jury rape trial and my offender walked free. This poem summarizes much of how I feel and the words have such flow and feel so natural. Your thoughts are poured out in this piece and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
