A BLAZING SOUL

A BLAZING SOUL

As far as my eyes can see,

The blood of the elite feast on me,


I am nothing but the voice of a poor soul,

Dying every day; to survive in this rat hole,


Refrained from voicing my opinion; held back for no reason,

I live naked on the streets; rotting to death; every season,


I do not live at the cost of your life,

But I pay you with my blood, dying every day to survive,


In return, you suck my soul dry,

Stabbing me till I bleed; stabbing me till I cry,


For I die today; many may die like me,

None that you care for, none you shall see,


But we suffer for your deeds,

Living like the rocks by the shore; being thrashed by the sea,

Might never realize what you have done,


Blinded by your ego, you will remain the same,

Making us run a race; that can never be won,


What would I not give, to live without fear,

For until that happens, I know I will tear,


Our hunger, our cry, our agony, our death,

Increasing by the night,


Your power, your pride, your ego,

Rising knowing no limits, sees my sight,


I think; I question; would god ever forgive you?

For all that you have done,


I turn back, look around,

Blazing souls like that of mine; I see,


We have no savior; I know!

God left this place a long time ago.
