Dysfunctional
Ghostly symbols
once adorned this notion,
Bearing love's testament
With solace woven into its fabric.
Dissolved into a broken ring,
Removed...
From not so discreet fingers,
As Judgement resides over broken vows.
No peace is found for victims of lies
As they fall into the wide cracks of Justice,
For hands are unable to catch
with blinded eyes,
As the weak and helpless,
Tumble from the scales of equality,
Into the dust
of a failed,
neglected system.
