LOSS OF WORDS
<p><span style="background-color: transparent;">There are things that just can't be explained,</span></p><p>Things that has to be hidden from light.</p><p>Have you heard of such things said at night?</p><p>If you have then you understand why they're not explained.</p><p><br/></p><p>'Hush' that's the sound made by those who want to hide</p><p>The wrongdoers who cannot stand their own wrongs.</p><p>The abusers who silently feed on others fears and thorns.</p><p>Silence is their only strength that's why they want you to hide.</p><p><br/></p><p>I, myself cannot fathom why we accept to stay still,</p><p>I'm at a loss of words when I hear stories of their victims.</p><p>More lost, when I hear the reasons they gave for hiding these things,</p><p>Ignorantly giving power to the predators of their fears still.</p><p><br/></p><p>Who said we can't win against them?</p><p>Who said we should obey them and hide their evils?</p><p>Take this speaker, and speak boldly against their vile acts.</p><p>No more secrets, especially not those abuses.</p>
