Revolution
Call the men and arm the guns,
For a revolution has just begun.
A secession has taken place,
Yet it is in the spot behind my face.
I let you in and you ruled my mind
With an iron fist, and a solid bind.
The people are tired, starving, and cold,
And it is time for a change of mold.
Exile the old and in with the new,
Just as the kings of old used to do.
A lonely battle cry and the war is on,
But the old regime is not easily gone.
Sleepless nights and absences
Are a product of expelled commanders and slain lieutenants.
An outward downward spiral is made,
Yet the people are of a hearty grade.
On a battlefield of broken dreams
A light pierces through the seams.
A single flower from a lifeless land.
I will never forget what we had.
