In shadows deep where whispers fade,
The heart of man, once bright, betrayed.
A tapestry of kindness torn,
In silence, a world forlorn.
Once, laughter danced on sunlit streets,
Now, echoes of greed drown out the beats.
Compassion’s flame, a flickering light,
Fades in the chaos of endless night.
The bonds of trust, like fragile glass,
Shatter beneath the weight of the mass.
In pursuit of power, we’ve lost our way,
Trading our souls for a fleeting sway.
Oh, heed the warning, the signs are clear,
In apathy’s silence, we drown in fear.
For when love is lost and hatred thrives,
The end of our story is where darkness arrives.
So rise, oh hearts, from the ashes of doubt,
Rekindle the fire, let compassion sprout.
For in unity lies the strength to survive,
To reclaim our values, to truly revive.
– Weilian (2024)
