Thoughts of the Oppressed

When your thoughts become a prison, your pen must become the sword in order to set it free

By Yasir KhanPublished 8 years ago 1 min read

Thoughts of the oppressed,

The world continues to bleed,

Thoughts of the oppressed,

As humanity begins to see,

That violence breeds hate

And

Hate always wants to feed.

Thoughts of the oppressed,

And you will begin to heed,

That I don’t believe in the sword,

I stand firmly by the pen,

As that is the only way to true peace.

Despite being told your words,

“make direct or indirect assertions or

Implications about personal

Attributes and/ or beliefs”

I will let my words flow, which are powered,

By my faith and belief.

Thoughts of the oppressed,

And my words will begin,

To set me free.
