In The Darkness


In the darkness
I hear screams of
A man whose house is on fire.

A snake with two heads
Two tails
Is leading this kingdom

Hypocracy is nothing new
To the chamelion
And bravery is no stranger to the Lion

When the bush is on fire
Speed can never be a threat
To the Cheetah

In this river of sand,
Swimming is of no use to the fish
And cowardice is no shame

To the lion fleeing from
The hunter loaded
With guns and bullets

The jungle has become
A kingdom without a king
And the lion,

A king without a kingdom
Sits the crown on his knees
Leaving his head naked

When hell unleashed
Homes broke
And ashes become dust

We never dreamt of heaven
Here was a perfect Paradise
Until hell unleashed
