Ember's Voice

Burn
Strings tied to their lives now burn
Burn
Ropes tied around their hands shall burn
Stuck in time
Help being blind
Desperation rises
Starve for light
Fed with lies
Passion for life imprisoned
Tears
Ashes from tears, on hope’s face, runs
Lost
Flame in peace’s heart was long time lost
Ember’s voice
Wisdom’s choice
Freedom, one aspires
Glimpse of hope
Gone as smoke
Freedom reached through fire
Walls raised by oppression
Yet invisible
Down, they can’t be torn
Flames lit by repression
Burning silence, one cannot ignore
Blazing cries, hatred resents
Pain leads to soul’s deliverance
Drifting from hands of contempt
Fire led to soul’s resilience
