You made a deal with the enemy
Based solely on unfounded faith
Sacrificing everything you said
You stood for
And hoped to
Impart to me
False faced figures
Touting hope and freedom while
Laying seeds of destruction
Twenty years in the making
You assured my honest children safety
As they now enter the void of the noose
That was your bare promise
Democracy was merely a dream
The Republic was merely a ruse
Maybe if you suckled oil
from my bare breasts
Maybe if you mined gemstones
from my southern lips
Maybe if my kiss to you
was sweeter
You would have stayed
Your own ideals
And my people
Not withstanding
Now dark clouds once kept at bay
Roll in with the passage of your day
Seeing my sons sprout with hate
That wasn't meant for their hearts
Watching my daughters
Disappear
Once again
