A Poem
Silenced
Black and white
Blood that stains
Eyes that linger
Bones that break
. . .
Welcome to the palace
Welcome to the games
Welcome to the fatal rounds
No one hears us say
Welcome to the palace
Welcome to the games
Welcome to the fatal rounds
No one hears us say
. . .
"Leave before the games begin!"
"Darkness festers beneath the skin."
"Watch your back and don't dare to breathe..."
"Shadows follow where you lead."
"Darkness festers beneath the skin."
"Watch your back and don't dare to breathe..."
"Shadows follow where you lead."
. . .
They call us royal
Queens and kings
We call ourselves the silenced
The ones no one can see.
They call us royal
Queens and kings
We call ourselves the silenced
The ones no one can see.
. . . . .
