In shadows deep where whispers tread,
The echoes of the past are fed,
“Never again,” the cries resound,
Yet here we stand on battleground.
Once trembling hands, now fists of steel,
The bullied rise, their wounds concealed,
A cycle spins, a dance of pain,
Injustice sown, it blooms again.
A playground lost to sharpened tongues,
Where laughter fades and sorrow clung,
The silent screams of yesterday,
Now shape the words we dare to say.
Surprise! The roles, they twist and turn,
In history’s flame, we never learn,
The mirror reflects what we disdain,
A bitter truth, the cycle’s chain.
From ancient scrolls to modern screens,
We weave our tales, yet tread on dreams,
The tyrant’s grip, the victim’s plight,
In every shadow, there lurks a fight.
The ink of ages stains the page,
Each line a testament, each word a cage,
We vow to rise, to stand as one,
Yet in the dark, the cycle’s spun.
With every tear that stains the ground,
With every heart that’s lost, unbound,
We trace the scars of battles fought,
In every silence, a lesson taught.
In gilded halls where power thrives,
The voices of the meek contrive,
To speak of hope, to dream anew,
Yet whispers fade, and darkness grew.
Oh, how the heart, it yearns for peace,
Yet finds itself in pieces, lease,
The echoes of the past still call,
As shadows dance upon the wall.
So let us pause, and break the mold,
With open hearts, let kindness hold,
For “never again” must weave anew,
A tapestry of hope, for me and you.
Let not the chains of sorrow bind,
But lift our gaze, with hearts aligned,
For in the dawn, a promise gleams,
To forge a path, to chase our dreams.
With every voice that dares to rise,
We shatter silence, we claim the skies,
For every child who feels alone,
We build a world that feels like home.
In unity, we find our strength,
To span the chasms, to go the length,
To turn the tide, to break the chain,
And from the ashes, rise again.
So heed the lessons, heed the call,
For “never again” must be our all,
In every heart, let love remain,
And from the shadows, we’ll break the chain.
