Netherworld
Fatemeh Khashei 2002 (Iran)
Beauty darkens with absurdity
Mercy blackens with brutality
Anguish covers with smile
No one gets why you cry
Honesty fades with hypocrisy
Folks enslaved by power
That's what shapes democracy
Loyality swifts to infidelity
Comers move softly with tendency
No pure intention
You just cycle in fantasy
Frienships deplete of continuity
They explode like a bomb
after meeting what they want
All these are in our sight
We can't deny all are lie
One day...
Will eveything get alright?
