The price of peace

The price of peace.
Peace at what price?
You have to have a voice
Or people will destroy you,
You don’t have a choice.

You must speak out,
Or you won’t last.
You must remember what happened in the past.

When they caused you pain,
And put you to shame.
But you must hold your head high,
And look them in the eye.
And hold onto your good name.

And hope they will see the real person that is me,
And turn away from the evil.
