"There is no justice among men" - Tsar Nikolai II


A voice trapped.
An echo unheard
Unseen, uncharted, unmapped.
A Day of Silence remembered.

From day to day
I live with who I am.
I cannot be as vile as you say.
If I try to speak, then WHAM!

Bruised and hurting I cry.
Alone and quieted I stay
Will the world be better if I die?
Perhaps I’ll be remembered one day.

4/20. A day for those voices,
those silenced by the mean.
We all make our choices
To help a problem rarely seen.

A voice trapped.
An echo unheard.
Unseen, uncharted, unmapped.
A Day of Silence remembered.

Rise you all and stand by me.
Help the voices unheard.
Do not speak, let them see.
A Day of Silence remembered.
