The Trial of Injustice
Author:
TheForgottenWarrior PM
When convicted of wrongdoing, it is only fair that one gets a trial. Then again, what's the point of even attempting a trial when they know it was never fair to begin with? When all the lies are set to light, will they be able to understand the reasons why? The time is coming. (Originally written in regards to the movie 'To Kill A Mockingbird' with a guilty aspect as well.)

The Trial of Injustice

The darkness draws nearer

My sense of hope soon to disappear

I long for someone to hold me tight

But that comfort will not come to me tonight

My wrongs will be my demise

The truth will be clear through my web of lies

In which I have so helplessly

Tangled myself with little reality

Paralyzed, I know it is my time

"But is there any chance?" I ask with a sigh

My future does not look optimistic

A trial of justice seems unrealistic

So I brace myself for the worst

Knowing how I'm not the first

The verdict is already known

And I must face this challenge alone
