OPEN YOUR EYES

These words shaped like spears are about to be spoken
The purpose is clear for those who have risen
To the cause of a trial a century old
But the terms are still senile to the rest of the world.
A trial of hate and constant denial
A thousand debates points of views so defile
But for those who have chosen to fight in this war
To receive condemnation is just fuel for more.
To all politicians and to those who have power
I put forward this question a question of honor
Do you not see the smears of your self-righteous minds
In the midst of your fears do you not see the lies.
Are you not done searching for the invisible sign
Or are you just pledging to pretend to be blind
Pretend that this chapter in the history tomes
Was like a weak whisper in the midst of a storm.
Pretend that you hear these words that are spoken
But refuse to adhere to the truth that is hidden
I do not seek for vengeance and hatred
Nor do I speak of intents that are slanted.
But this constant refusal to unmask your own fear
As you let the truth tumble year after year
I cannot stand still as you smear my objection
I will not be thrilled by your constant rejection.
My nation has suffered my nation has cried
But through all its endeavors our name has survived
And if you see me fallen where I can no longer write
Be assured that my children will continue this fight.
And they will carry this beacon as a sign of distress
And these words will be spoken for as long as it takes
And time will discern one calm April day
A new torch will burn and it will not be astray.
For a First Christian Nation we are only a few
This pen is our weapon our pride is our virtue
These words have been written without a disguise
What you read is an omen now, open your eyes.
