Joy and Justice by Boundless Divine

I didn’t post my smile yesterday.

It didn’t feel right with all the pain. 

But alas I woke to find another daughter gone today. 

So I’ll sing a song so I'll survive

Live till all the ashes fall. 

Use my power and a pen

to help orchestrate 

the world we create,

And I’ll be singing loud 

as I’m singing now.
