riot

in this land i am forsaken

By princess jasminePublished 4 years ago 1 min read

for too long we have been quiet

let’s get up and start a riot

stand up and yell “stop damaging our climate”

do not scream the words. cry it

because this population is giant

but everyone has become too reliant

so calm with being silent

only a minority are willing to get violent

speak up. stop living in private

for too long we have been quiet

in this land i am forsaken

i think my presence has been mistaken

a life worth to be taken

sort of a beautiful creation

ruined by this strange generation

who lack the education

full of discrimination

making my personality misshapen

being judged for being asian

i have lost all determination

maybe it is time for me to leave this civilisation

i can no longer keep waiting for an awaken

in this land i am forsaken
