SILENT WARRIORS

4 years, 5 years, 10 years,

Since you gave up on life,

They blamed you, for not being the \'right\' girl,

Blamed you for uttering non-sense,

Blamed you for speaking the truth without proof,

Blamed you for every right thing you did.

Is it wrong to raise and shield the wronged?

Is it a crime to fight for justice?

 

When the candlelight flickered and stopped,

People lost hope in goodness.

Maybe the evil and the cunning will triumph at the end, after all?

Maybe we can\'t survive if we are good?

 

Time passed, you were forgotten,

The candle was ignited,

Burning all the brighter,

The hidden treasures of your discovery,

From the underworld slowly,

For the glorious truths to be seen so clearly,

Priceless efforts of the silent warriors,

And they were biting their nails,

Remorseful for making you leave.

 

Oh, but it\'s too late now.
