To Be Denied and Struggle

To turn my back... to inwardly reap the shame... ...to lend a hand to endure the blame... ...damned if we do... ...damned if we don't... ...to allow one suffering in pain...your plea revoked... ...to do nothing...to repeat the inherent source... ...to do everything... repercussion persecution... self remorse... ...indeed to step up... is not a step back... ...to be counted when called upon...low and behold... selfless act scorned on... ...your cry for help is... now intuitively ignored... ...we will shoulder the blame... your future as your past... ...you without remorse or good conscience... ...we are discarded once more... ...we shall leave you to suffer... ...to suffer together... ...together in deafening silence... ...to survive we need close the door...
