Stars cant shine without a little darkness



The graves abyss,
How could someone do this?
Out so plainly,
It’s so deadly.

Walking all around,
It has made me dumbfound.
All the pain,
Written on their face.

I wish I knew….
But what could I possibly do?
I’m no hero,
unlike all of you.

What’s my advice?
Screen for opinion on rase.
A neutral stance,
Is our best chance.
