Flames Of Shame

Flames Of Shame

A country that is like a mother

Has no place for a daughter.

She is left to be disgraced

Acid thrown to be defaced.


Her voice goes unheard of,

Among the so-called bigots

Who claims to protect her.

If she dares to confront

Them, then she is burnt

So that no one will raise a finger

As long as memory lingers.


The justice that they claim

Has not reached her domain.

She is mercilessly killed

And all their deeds nulled

With the fire that engulfs

Her, along with her dreams and prayers.
