In the Realm of Shadows
In the realm of shadows, injustice thrives,
A bitter poison that blights countless lives.
I world where virtue is battered and bruised,
Where truth is obscured and goodness abused.
Inequity spreads its venomous seed,
Targeting those who are in dire need.
It mocks the cries of the oppressed and weak,
While favoring the powerful and sleek.
It casts a shadow over hope’s warm glow,
Leaving hearts heavy with sorrow’s cruel blow.
Yet within this darkness, a spark remains,
A fire of resilience that never wanes.
For hearts united against this unjust plight,
Can ignite a flame that pierces the night.
In solidarity’s embrace, we find might,
Together, we’ll conquer the wrongs we fight.
So let us stand tall, unwavering and strong,
For justice and fairness, we’ll strive lifelong.
In each voice raised against oppression’s sway,
We plant the seeds of change, a brighter day.
