Chronicles

She was birthed into a land of myth Trapped with bullet wounds And numerous gunshots Her dreams were frightened Surrounded by curses and tortures Lost within the broken walls of her belly Hope, as she was called Vomited pains and sadness Slept with brokenness smiling on her face Her body became a home - A home broken by unworthy soldiers and deceitful men Caught in a world of her own Life was a cloudy nightmare The world silently defiled her bright future And got a beautiful child out of her She was raped like a baby Left bleeding like a pregnant woman in the emergency room Her hope was scattered in the open field Rockets flew over her head Rebels danced to jungle songs preparing for war She touched her chest but couldn't find her heart With all the blood sleeping in her eyes She wraps her life into prayers And trains her lips to speak of positivity
