From where I come

From a land of oppression, my soul's thread frays, Where homes and hope abandoned, in silence, decays, The streets, they bleed scarlet, a canvas of dread, From where I come, anguish seeps through each thread. From a broken home, screams shatter like glass, Tears cascade like rain, a tempestuous morass, A symphony of sorrow, a ghostly ballet, From where I come, hearts wither and decay. Pulled and shattered, an outcast in shadows' grasp, In this barren realm, where despair clings with a rasp, No beacon of solace, no respite in sight, From where I come, darkness claims its invite. Through fragments of pain, my spirit's torn and worn, Crafting metaphors of sadness, mournful and forlorn, In the tapestry of my existence, a raven's flight, From where I come, despair reigns day and night. In the land of oppression, my voice whispers low, Each word I utter, a hurricane's mighty blow, From where I come, a barren wasteland prevails, Through depths of sorrow, my spirit never fails. So let tears flow ceaselessly, rivers of woe, In rhythm of my heartache, despair's eerie glow, From where I come, a barren desert of despair, In abyss of hopelessness, I languish, aware. From where I come, a journey through thorns I tread, Engulfed in shadows, where despair's touch widespread, In face of relentless anguish, I strive, From where I come, a tale of torment alive.
