Bleeding Generations

Come with me, lets take a tour
There's hidden truths, behind every door
Slaughter house & Cattle fields

Here yields,
the generations of

Soothing dreams of agony
Haunting screams of apathy
Opened minds of scarcity
Closed binds of sovereignty
Loving path of cruelty
Hating wrath of consistency
Bleeding tears of beauty
Healing cheers of brutality

They Kill the broken & keep them low
They Watch your blood seep and sow
They Starve your rotting corpse you breed
They feed from your soul the more you need
They Torture the poor for all to see
As their passing streets of glee

Repeating these cycles
Are all that we know
Which feeds the trauma that wont let us grow
With eyes gouged out, we cannot see
We're blinded from reality
While we fight and while we hate
They sit up high and laugh at fate

They Punish your pain with all Their reign
Then we blame the needle, while mocking in vain
Yet the price for peace is never the same
They made you believe the enemies within
So We tie them up and cut their throats
While chanting justice, in their coats
The Blood of generations flood the streets
And trauma continues on repeat

We are the monsters under our bed
A constructed system that keeps the rich fed
They creep in the shadows of our head

Your led by greed
Prepare, despair
you'll never be freed

Wake up, wake up
nightmare, nightmare

Collateral Innocence

Tumblr: @hidden-norms (Axela)

Collateral Innocence

Poisoned parents, hidden lies
Severed eyes, violent cries
Internal wars never managed
Children are collateral damage

Broken glass, screams of rage
Arguments that last for days
Angry men, causing pain
Frightened children, covered ears
Drums of sorrow filled with tears
Blankets covered, trembling fears

Blamed & shamed For everything
Missing items, bad days
Chasing a high they'll never find
We're the problem all the time
Unjust consequence released
A mom who watches vacantly

Most of the time, left alone
Nightly rounds I did at home
Checking siblings, covered up
one last room, just in case
Not surprised, by empty space

Nervous system, stays alert
With Closed eyes, i cant see
Need someone next to me
Trouble sleeping peacefully
What if someone needs me
Neglected children, look up to me
Oldest sibling epiphany
Sacrifice yourself to please
Solve the problems, Keep the peace
Make sure everyone's at ease
Soothe adults, with disease

Dirty clothes, knotted hair
Lice that always reappear
Roaches crawling everywhere

Chair to stove remedy
Empty fridge
Pickle jar & condiments

Eviction notice constantly
Eviction noticed repeatedly

I'll unpack eventually...

Searching for forgiveness

Tumblr: @hidden-norms (Axela)

The Judge

The Judge was silent with no appeal
A judge that only I could feel
As I stood trial like everyday before
I already knew my fate before I walked through the door

The judge seen a monster
the jury seen a neglected child
the judge was filled with disgust
the jury was filled with sympathy

I tried to plead my case you see
but the judge and the jury couldn't agree
Although the jury forgave me
The Judge stood unwavering

Even though I plead this case a million times
I decided to give it one more try..

I'll forgive everyone who hurts me if that's what it takes to give me some grace
I'll burn my skin off if that's what it takes to make the disgust go away
I'll sacrifice myself everyday if that's what it takes for you to love me
I'll abandon myself and forget who I am if that's what it takes for you to accept me
I'll use my body to protect everyone else while I stand unprotected myself
if that's what it takes to be seen as somebody else
I'll take any punishment you offer me if that's what makes you happy
Just please tell me what I have to do to finally get you to forgive me

The Judge was silent with no appeal
A Judge that only I could feel
In my final attempt
I dropped to my knees
Begging

please forgive me

As I looked back at the judge one last time
I realized
the judge was no stranger to me
and no amount of punishment I condemned myself to would have ever made them forgive me
because the judge was my reflection
looking back at me
a reflection I couldn't see

I couldn't forgive me.
