Lightning splits the sky

I would like to share a poem i wrote about 3 years ago...

Lightning splits the sky
Thunder shakes the earth
The heart is crying
Over the knotty circumstances

Thunder shakes the earth
Water then showers the land
Over the knotty circumstances
Honesty and prejudice battle each other

Water then showers the land
Washing away the exuberance
Honesty and prejudice battle each other
Victory must go to honesty

Washing away the exuberance
Black curtains blanketing hope
Victory must go to honesty
As prejudice undermines respect

Black curtains blanketing hope
But look within, the candle is still burning
As prejudice undermines respect
Let honesty returns the pride

But look within, the candle is still burning
The inner strength never dies
Let honesty returns the pride
Let trust causes the sun to rise

The inner strength never dies
The lesson is to grasp hope tightly
Let trust causes the sun to rise
Lightning splits the sky.
