Look How Far We Have Come

We were hidden away in shame



And the servants became our masters



We were the family secret abomination



Cast away amongst the rafters







The chains that bound us in darkness



Clamped over emaciated bone



Society waits in eager delight



To watch the diabolical show







We were hidden within the walls



Separated by your worth and judgement



The echoed filler of screaming fun



Drowned the cried of your amusement







We were demon possessed and tormented



We needed to become pure



The drill went deep into our skull



And our silence confirmed our cure







You saw us as a punishment by God



Our life a reflection of sin



Leaches bled us, Purging calmed us



To drive out the spirits within







The shame and embarrassment



Was too much for you to take



driven out of the place called home



We were your biggest mistake







Families abandoned families



as they remove us from sight



Our only companions are the voices within



Stripped bare and cast into the night








Look how far we have come







300 years on



And the shackles are harder to see



They are invisible through the mask of day



At night they cling tighter to me







The yelling of the crowds



As they passed us on the streets



replaced by the whispers of judgement



their words stuck on repeat















The chains of irons that we wore



Are replaced by chaotic pills within



Emotions dampened like abandoned fog



While injections numb cold skin







Families that disown us



Are more subtle than once knew



We aren't hidden from the world so much



But still hidden from your view









We aren't subject to public stockades



Battered by bricks and stones



the scars run deeper within us now



cut by the silence that you throw







we have a different mask for display



that we take off every night



Anchored by indifference and shame



Is this our new birthright?







So please don't show us we are beneath you



Don't silence us with distance



Because when we feel you removing yourself



You are confirming our life sentence







Remove the unseen chains



From the weight of your stare



Its too heavy for us to hold



And its too strong for us to bare







Someone you know well wrote this



In the hope that you won't run



Just to listen and make me the same as you




Please show me how far we have come
