The Courage in Turning the Page

Aswathy K It takes courage to open the newspaper every day. New horrors which demoralize in every way. The future is bleak, the present burning, The past remolded to fit current yearning. It take a piece of my soul every time I touch it. It erodes my will, sanity and wit. Yet I carry on for one reason alone. Those who ignore condone The actions which paint my front page red And don’t question the lies we are fed. So inform yourself and speak up, Don’t be on the wrong side of history and be wise. The world is a dark place, Don’t make it darker by closing your eyes.
