In the realm of likes and follows, we reside,
Where truth is obscured and rumors abide.
Let's pause and fact-check before we believe,
For misinformation can cause us to deceive.
We speak of justice, yet we stand still,
Watching injustice unfold with no will.
It's time to take action, to make a stand,
And bring an end to this darkness at hand.
History repeats, but do we truly learn,
As its echoes of pain resurface and churn?
Different names and places, yet it's the same,
Can these slight changes absolve all the blame?
My heart ignites, not with fire or ice,
But with the unspoken words, the sacrifice.
I've nailed my lonely heart to the cross of secrecy,
Letting it bleed, away from misguided pity.
I've veiled myself, hiding from hypocrisy's glare,
Protecting my essence from judgments unfair.
For a beautiful face may age and fade,
But a beautiful soul remains a serenade.
Let's rise above the noise of social media's sway,
Seeking truth, spreading kindness each day.
With justice in our hearts and lessons in mind,
Together we can make a brighter world find.
