the peasants shed their tears alone,

while the kings and queens

sit upon their judging thrones .

come down and take the child by the hand 

show him the way.

for time has come where the light

upon his path,

        is starting to turn dark.

put away your mind's prejudices.  

the prejudices that hides behind 

      the illusions

and the contempt that hides 

      inside the delusions.

in the core of the hollows heart

 is where insecurities,

             feast.

sometimes silence cuts deeper 

     than a stabbing knife

       cutting through to

               the bone.

and

       sometimes silence 

    shoots stinging barbs. 

a soul destroyed cry

 breaks the night's silence.

     listen to its laments.

the wounded beast is easy prey

to the contemptuous  

 who sit on

 thrones of high.

these throne occupiers don't awaken to the pain

from their downpouring 

                                  rain
