Hushed

This is the very first political poem I've ever written, I hope you guys like it!

I couldn't see the light today
Someone came and took it away
with all my hopes and all my dreams
They took away what I believed
They pushed me in a world of loss
where living was the highest cost
and brought with them years of fire
and hid what I could most desire
All my words were hushed and ceased
then darkness took a hold of me
My hands were bound, my eyes were shut
Escaping now would be pure luck
The "polished Chief" said it's okay
But we know things will stay this way.
