Brave

 Break thy bones

Bully them and hone

Laugh at them

Make filthy signs

Call their names

..

Make them feel apologetic 

For they have acted lowly, 

To break an old monopoly 

Until they stop questioning

Until they stop staring and husking

Until oblivion dusk on them

Hit them hard! And hard!

..

Make them feel alone

Downgraded and dejected clone

Skin them down, 

For they have dared what was your own!

And when you feel that

they are broken in pieces, 

And their purposes are shattered 

And thy will not 'rise' again, no matter

Leave. 

Leave, letting them bleed.

..

Just YOU make sure, 

He became a coward

Lost all the hope, 

Has nothing to cope

And will not live long

Neither survive nor slight along

..

For what if, they persisted,

Overcame the pain and remained,

to what they passionately call, 

a 'BRAVE'

You may have nothing to crave.
