They all now had praised him with honour
His face was layered to fool the others
The layers will deepen further in sin
But the fooled are too blind to see it through him
The scarred will have themselves held in disappoint for the gullible
And the gullible will never know if he was a saint
Or they might not ever care of what he’s done was justifiable
What he had done to the harmed was never enough to spread
As the harmed and the scarred will never be peacefully lulled to bed
The trauma will be placed somewhere in their mind; back or front
As they watch the failure the society has come
When will the asleep become awake — for the awake to now be sound asleep?
You can add a comment for feedback if you want. I'm still struggling to understand poetry and how to write it
