Stolen Truths

Faded maps, Empty promises, A king's cruel decree. Shadows lengthen, On shattered temples, dust Chanting, a false saviour. Twisted truths, A poisoned well, Power's hungry grip. Ancient stones whisper, Secrets buried, buried deep, We must find our light. A single spark, Igniting the heart, Shattering the chains.
