A Cold and Lonely Road



Greed, Greed comes with
Distraction, distraction comes with
 Pain,  pain comes with
Tears, tears come with
Lives, lives that fight to survive an era with so much death and injustice.
Lands taken food taken life taken enslaved or tortured. These lives don’t know what their destiny holds or the danger it beholds.
Kicked out and derived by the evil the evil that surrounds them the evil that comes, it comes and it destroys including steel what it’s not there’s.
Winter cold as ice the ice that runs in their veins suffering the suffering of walking, starving, and without clothes.
In chains, the heavy chains make it impossible to walk dragging their strength to finally run away but at last,  those are dreams instead. while this journey continued lives are lost on the way slowly but surely it becomes a cold and lonely road.
we raise a flower to the dead to honor the lives that have suffered……
