Crowned And Alone Carrying The Heavy Load Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Stone me right at my forehead,
Stone me right through my heart,
Stone me for what I speak,
Stone me, till the last drop oozes out.

You will be left alone as the open wounded lepers,
You will be ignored the moment you lose your power,
You will be accused by those who praised you,
The moment what you speak hurt the hearts.

He traveled uphill carrying the heavy cross,
Not even one soul raised its voice to support his cause,
The meek sheep always follow the crowd to be slaughtered,
Speak the truth, you will stand apart and shine as the star.
