The marks, the stains
My words I shall not refrain
From veins the pain flows
Of those chained
Stains from
The fights
For rights
Freedoms still
Not in sight
Stains from
Clashes
And lashes
Stains on the walls
Of those with
Voice
Power
And pride
Stains of those
Who refuse
To be
Silenced
Or hide
Stains on the wall
Of those
Feared
And misunderstood
Stains of those
Who were told
Who to love
How to love
And how to act
Religious veils
Sanctify that
Though we
Transcend
And ascend
Will the fear
And hate
Ever end?
That's the greatest
Question of all
Until then
I'll continue to
Tell the story of
The stains on the wall
