Hearts gushing and groaning
Souls wearing and panting.
Peace calling, but falling
And then, pain to a propel heart wishing.
Pardon oh, this palatial style to move
With no happiness, but panic
And then the gaiety they remove.
With her government making the air toxic.
Throngs of people throb to pain,
Turmoil their hearts, then they go again.
This season secluded for no man to tell,
If cast, hearts will yell.
Sentries, scurry for tears to sear
With painful pace, these stories now tear.
Children cascading tears to dry
Men slain to fight this sly.
Women walking slow on cramp road
Children again, for no dreams to unfold.
In slim bamboos blowing on the air,
It dashes on many for a bloody smear.
One leg deepens on unfailing hole,
Tearing defenses, self-seeking in senile.
Day changing to eyes of night
Dark night slurring to fight plight.
Day and night, hearts shouting and shouting
With no voice to resolve, but routing.
How rotten this thoughts to advance,
When spanked and smitten to it trance.
Might cross and look over it dreams,
Trailing to trick of self-esteem.
Tears pouring and pouring
The terrain blush and falling.
Nice piece here. Let us all do what we can do to support the movement, this country mustnt fall into corrupt hands.
