Roses

!Trigger warning ahead! Please read at your own discretion

White petals,
Fall the sky,
Stained,
With blood,
That will never dry,
White roses,
Now stained,
Red,
Fall onto the ground,
Over 700 dead,
Their lives taken,
By their own hand,
Because they saw,
No other way,
Because of the choices,
That are being made,
By one man,
Of power and greed,
700 women,
Took their lives,
And it will not be in vain,
We will honour them,
Our sisters,
Our daughters,
Our granddaughters,
We will keep,
Fighting in the cruel,
World of pain,
We will remember,
Them and their names,
For how is the normal,
How can we stand by,
And stay silent,
As our choices,
Are stripped away,
As our rights are taken,
By corruption and malice,
We must fight,
Despite being scared,
We must be strong,
Despite knowing,
It might all go wrong,
We must continue,
So no more lives,
Have to be taken,
We must stand against,
This evil,
We must untie,
Under one banner,
Under one name,
Under the falling petals,
From the sky
