THE ROYAL GHOSTS

THE ROYAL GHOSTS

The world knows,
how they all lived,
as king and queen.
prince and the royals.
how they bowed when asked.
some people thought,
they were gods.
but they were not,
for they weren't immortals,
And there was this time,
when they died.
each of them killed.
killed by their own,
as some people said,
The prince was insane,
for he was in love.
mind hid he lose,
weapons did he have,
addicted he was,
by the mysterious,
black substance.
shot them one by one,
and he was gone.
thirteen of them died.
many more injured.
but after all,
its said by those,
who surivived.
what if they were bribed.
by those who actuallly killed.
killed fora reason,
ALL those insane
and he was a scapegoat.
the prince alone.
and what about that
black susbtance?
everybody knows who gave,
he does still live.
and what about those weapons,
he had,who gave.

Times changed and many forgot,

those Thirteen ghosts still haunt,
in the palace brought down.
brought down a reason,
by someone who still lives.
the one who was overthrown
the living host king.

Dont you hear them?
dONT YOU fear them?
They cry all the time.
ask what was their mistake
and there is this prince
who yells
why was he a scapegoat?

dont you hear them
dont you hear them
those thriteen ghosts,
each of their bellows.

Times changed
there were thirteen thousands more
those children,those men,women
some who killed and got killed
some who never did
those innocents, who died
many who killed still live
live for a reason
live with pride
curse those thirteen thousands
again and again.
and here they are.
those thirteen ghosts.
who live with them,
sing together,dance together,
with those thirteen thousands.
but they are royals no more,
they are like them
the ghosts.
they haunt us all the time,
those thirteen thousand ghosts.
those thirteen royal ghosts.
don't you hear them?
don't you fear them?
those dead still alive,
live deep inside our head.

Sincere condolence to the brutally massacred royal family and the Nepali people who died in a decade.... long war.
