Here I am
Standing next to them
Wondering why
They even try
To be perfect
When all they do is get wrecked

Pure white
Before the fight
Now they are stained red
All their innocence is dead

Here I stand
With a brand
Saying I am his and his alone
Yeah, he’s the King Bee and I’m his Drone
Don’t know why
I wish to fly
When I can’t even walk
When I can’t even talk
Without him telling me to
Without him giving me the cue

Pure white
Before the fight
Now we are stained red
All of our innocence is dead

You could call me a fool
For living under his rule
But he loves me
Can’t you see?
He is the best thing for me
Can’t you see
I don’t want to be free?

Pure white
Before the fight
Now we are stained red
All of our innocence is dead
All our innocence is dead
All our innocence is
dead

My pen is the barrel of a gun. Remind me which side you should be on.

I love the title, it adds insight into the poem that you would have otherwise been able to overlook. The poem itself is powerful in its own way, very good job.

the pain is felt in this intense piece, well penned ~hugs~

Love is the life of the soul...
It is the harmony of the universe
