He tried to call it even
when I caught his simple denial.

He asked me why I was leaving
and I could not explain my trial.

He never replied
when I spoke his name.

It brought me off guard
and he shall take the blame.

I remembered him saying:
thee shall doubtless fall
and you,
you will lose track,
trying to stand tall,
measuring your height
and forgetting your sight.
Do not ever let them win,
you do know what they would do
with such a shameful sin.

I took his one and only advice
and became a slave for his disguise.

And never for once
did I ever see him again.

Ask me why
and I shall tell truth.

Call me a liar
and I shall bring proof.

What ever you do
do not claim your freedom
or legal right.

As long as you live here
there is no such light.

So pack your belongings
and book a flight,
you are leaving,
you are leaving tonight.
