song of the denied

Post by orangetree »

Sophia was moved to visit a large collection of people who were all trying to get into candlekeep, and all denied... her new wizard friend included.

So she wrote a song about the denied, the unworthy, a lament with a spark of hope that someone will always care who they are.

A song to the denied.

The door remains closed,
Not because of foes,
and though we question why,
We're not even given lies

Marching upon cobbled streets,
For purpose and whispered beliefs,
and words spoken so brief,
that end in tears of grief.

Descending down those stairs,
Your head hangs in shame,
A heaving body so lame,
As if life were a game.

Another one denied,
Without desired traits,
Another losses faith
another turns to hate

but please stand and wait,
Because I think you are great,
and I know you feel irate,
I might just be too late,

You might think your life is dull,
But be proud and stand tall,
Even if denied your call
walk down and never fall

I know you are worthy,
I know you are angry,
I know you could be,
all that you believe

Even if you are denied,
A soul on fire and fried
A heart and future crushed,
A painter without a brush

Let me paint the words for you
Let me show you what you do
And I know life isn't fair
But know that someone cares...
