Innocents of corruption

In the shadows it lurks, corruption might,
A chilling reality that haunts the night.
Behind closed doors, a web of deceit,
Where power and greed mercilessly meet.

A tainted, poisoning hearts,
As trust and integrity slowly depart.
Bribery and fraud, their weapons of choice Silencing justice with a deafening voice.

The innocent suffer, their dreams crushed,
While the corrupt thrive, their conscience hushed.
Promises broken, lies whispered in of pain and tears.

But amidst this darkness, a flicker of light,
Courageous souls who refuse to take flight.
They fight for justice, their voices raised high,
Exposing corruption, no longer shy.

Braving threats danger, they persist,
Determined to eradicate the iron fist.
For in unity they find strength and grace,
Shattering corruption's hold, leaving no trace.

So let us not turn a blind eye or stay numb,
To the chilling reality of corruption's outcome.
Together we rise, demand reform,
A world where honesty and virtue transform.

For only through our collective might,
Can we conquer corruption's chilling ight.
And forge a future where truth shall prevail,
A symphony of justice breaking the veil.
