Recessive Dominion

Carried away
Afar in thoughts
Tied by thoughts
Toughened by life

Can’t say no
Can’t calm it off
Inner wrath unleashed
But mother earth
So unkind to him

Oppressed; inflicted 
Faking in opinions
Decisions all subjected
Frustrated in race
A race retraced

Fear troops in piece
In part snatch the peace 
A glance at the past
Through the lent of days
Reflections fade away 

Pains within
Dying within
Without looks for hidden
Tears roll down like the river flow
Pouring out from the innermost
Just if my steps could be found again
