Why Do They?

Why do they continue to make me suffer,
this nightmare they've put me through?
Why do they want to kill me,
for something they know I did not do?

Why do they continue this injustice,
when they know there was no crime?
Why are they so vindictively corrupt?
Such evil is difficult to opine!

Why won't they admit the truth,
instead of covering it up with a lie?
Are their careers and reputations so important
That they would allow an innocent man to die?
