Untitled

The feeling of hopelessness, lost and pain was awakening within me.
What should I do? What should I do?
My shame began covering me with its curses.
What can I do? What can i do?
My life was starring me in my eyes, it did not blink, once.
It knew as well as I did.
It was time.
Whatever was going to happen was so clear that it could be seen through the eyes of a blind man,
yet the man with the clearest vision can not see it himself.
A Man is the most powerless creature on Earth, yet he walks around like we're the most dominant.
I can not seem to wrap this idea around my head, nor do I understand it.
Should I take action today, or wait to die tomorrow?
I have a right to speak my mind, but is it right to speak my mind?
My heart is pacing like I'm trying to finish a race, and its funny because they tried the same thing...
yet the race is still going
We have a right, just like you
And we will use our rights to its fullest; until our days renew
