We fight for democracy, a voice for all,

Yet silence the opposition, in its brawl,

We claim to be fair, in our own right,

But ignore the powerless, and their plight,

The irony of democracy, an absurd sight.

About the Creator

R.Freya

Poetry is my soul's language, and I wield words like a paintbrush. From heartbreak to hope, I capture emotions and spin them into verse.
