Vanessa Dizon Alvarez Poems
- Knife Turned Freedom
That knife you drove into my back,
A silver truth on a shadowed track.
It cut me deep, it made me bleed,
Yet carved the strength I came to need. ... - Bloodline Betrayal
You don’t know hate till kin ignite,
A fire that burns the home at night.
Their voices sharpen, daggers fall,
The sweetest bond becomes a wall. ... - Blood Ain’t Thicker Than Peace
It’s okay to break the chain,
To walk away from endless pain.
No vow of blood, no binding tie,
Can cage the soul or dim the sky. ... - Chains Do Not Define
Just because they share your blood,
Doesn’t mean you bear the flood.
Lies that twist, and chaos near,
Do not command the life you steer. ... - Against Rumors
Raise your voice, let truth be clear,
No shadowed lie can linger here.
The tales they spin, the masks they wear,
Are broken songs of empty air. ...
