Jester

Who do you write for...
What you write?
Why do you write...
What you write?

For you to heal?
Or for the world to read?
Or for them to see
How you bleed?

Did you not scream for help?
Did you not bare your soul?
Where are those friends?
Those people? Those foes?

Aren't you done
Being whispers for them?
Don't give them more stories
To spice up their fun.

They taunted your wounds
And laughed at your pain.
They mocked your tears
And your disgrace.

They offered you a bed
In exchange of yourself
They hugged you here
And sold you there.

So, shred your paper
Throw away your pen
Build a bigger wall
And mount a stronger lock.

Shoot down any visitor
Don't answer to their knocks
Stick to mockery
As a court jester, you rock!
