Born with sight, yet adults are blind.
Born with a spirit to fight, yet rebels one cannot find.
Born craving the light, but taught to stumble through darkness in kind.
Living righteously deemed a crime.
Thoughts for unity confined.
The rich legally compel the poor to compete over a dime.
Freedom and liberty redefined.
Justice, nothing more than a mime.
To stroll alone or march in madness.
To refuse to condone or wear the mask of happiness.
These are the choices I've known.
