A world of Woe

In a world where shadows dance and secrets play,

Where morals fade and alliances betray,

A tale unfolds of a life unkind,

Where survival's law is the ruthless grind.

"Dogs eat dogs," the whispers go,

A truth so stark, a world of woe,

With fangs bared, they tear and gnash,

In this savage realm, a brutal clash.

Amidst the chaos, a lone figure stands,

A survivor born of these shifting sands,

Eyes like steel, heart like ice,

Navigating through the sacrifice.

Each step taken is a battle won,

In this realm where treachery is done,

But within this darkness, a light may shine,

A spark of hope, a chance to redefine.

Beneath the surface, a yearning grows,

For something more, a path to oppose,

The dog-eat-dog decree that rules the land,

A chance to break free from its iron hand.

As the moon ascends and stars align,

A symphony of change begins to intertwine,

From the ashes of brutality and strife,

A revolution emerges, a new life.

The walls crumble, the barriers fall,

As courage rises to answer the call,

Unity blooms in the midst of despair,

A tapestry woven with love and care.

No longer bound by the primal urge,

No longer slaves to the vicious scourge,

The pack transforms, a collective soul,

Embracing a purpose that makes them whole.

Yet echoes of the past still remain,

A reminder of the old world's stain,

The scars run deep, a reminder stark,

Of the times when dogs prowled in the dark.

In this tale of grit, of strength and grace,

A reflection of the human race,

We see the choices that we must make,

To rise above and our own paths to stake.

For in this world of struggle and strife,

We hold the power to change our life,

To break the cycle, to forge anew,

And in that journey, our purpose pursue.

So heed this lesson, let it be known,

In the realm where only the strong have grown,

That amidst the darkness, a choice does lie,

To be a beacon of light, to soar up high.
