Justice prevails
Love fills our sails
Shadows can’t hide
When light’s our guide
Energy’s read
Nothing’s unsaid
Through games we lose
We pay our dues
When time to win
Earned lucky spin
Cheaters who boast
Regret the most
The price to pay
On judgement day
Trapped and fearing
Vision’s clearing
Time to answer
Necromancer
What’s been taken
Now forsaken
Unfair earning
Tides now turning
Tribe of Ma’at
Never forgot
Thought hope was lost
Into trash tossed
Was cursed and nailed
But never failed
To see task through
And make world new
Love now ruling
No more fooling
Never too late
To change one’s fate
By doing right
Choose path of light
Cast out the dark
Trust inner spark
Reclaim power
Leave the tower
When this life ends
You’ll know true friends
Cared for your soul
And played their role
As once agreed
Till all are freed

I like how this poem celebrates goodness in every line. Just loved the the lines “Thought hope was lost
Into trash tossed
Was cursed and nailed
But never failed”
This poem also has a sense of motivation. Beautiful lines Melissa!!

Thank you Aahna! I woke up in the middle of the night with the words of the poem in my head and needed to write them down before I could fall back asleep. Glad you like it. I remain hopeful that justice will always be served and goodness and love shall prevail. ❤️
