Fallen Nation

I stand here all alone For our justice’s been dethroned Waiting for my trial Which is more in truth my exile I know there's no justice here For it is that truth I fear The judges here corrupt No way to resurrect What's now a fallen nation That is now planning my cremation Or rather a public execution For this is their solution To the problems caused by me And my views of liberty

Hello Christy, I like this one! Here us my question... do your think changing "I" to "We" would change its meaning or broaden it? Thank you for sharing. Steve

It would change the meaning. But my story behind writing it was a girl in a recently turned toltarian government who spoke out against this control. She's waiting for the death sentenced she know will come...
