How Could You?

Lock him away, why don't you?
Make his whole family suffer.
You're nothing but a coward.
The consequence of innocence being overpowered.
You did this to him.
You did this to them.
You did this to me.
He has a family.
Grandchildren wait for the day of his release.
Breaking a family apart.
You have lying down to a cruel art,
don't you?
Nothing you said is true.
Karma will stick like glue,
To you from all of the others,
Who managed to see through.
They never discovered your lies.
Do you get off on seeing,
A sweet, kind man,
Such as my grandfather,
In this much emotional pain?
You'll find out soon,
That you will lose all of your gain.
