People In Bondage

Refugees are humans, people with sunlit dreams wishing revenge and pain soon would be gone; hearts held in vigils, their grief unabated as rudely cups the night in some foreign place, to will their wings, freedom from bondage cries. Journeying far when nights tear homes away while they await destiny, a time of real peace clutching on hope no vain attempt for women, and children bathing in pools of fear- just because a riddled power struggle taints this will to live rightly, a universal command. Stand aloft with the breeze, be mightily proud let your echoes roar on as liberty sings. People Contest hosted by Richard Lamoureux June 2, 2018
