• Pain1 - Poem

    Why can't we speak on the pain?

    Only on the gains.

    Only on consumerism, followers and fame

    Why is our truth a stain?

    When did we become the ones to blame?

    We’re supposed to be grateful

    "Shut up, smile and don’t you dare turn hateful"

    Can’t even complain

    Pissing on us and telling us its rain

    They tell us it's our fault

    Again and again

    All while they have gained

    And gained and gained

    They silence our pain

    And we feel shame

    We are not the ones to blame

    We did not create the chains

    For gold, grains and sugarcane

    They hoard the wealth obtained

    Through cheap labour its sustained

    I despise the wealth that's bloodstained

    So here's my poem on just sliver of my pain.
