soulgoddess challenge peace

For all around i hear
the voices of the
young asking for peace
to be supported by
every end.
They want war to stop
and peace to begin.
They can not believe
how long the war has
gone on for.
I wait patiently to
see if this will happen
in my time or for thee.
I pray to God for him
to bring peace for
all of his country.
I devote this to my
fellow comrades who
serve with me and
now protect this
C O U N T R Y.

Write For Peace (Soulgoddess challenge-Acrostic)

Worldwide love of nature shared by all
Responsible leaders whose egos fall
Into cities let the green earth sprawl
Take the hand of all those who crawl
Energy made by every roof and wall

Foster belief in fairness for us all
Outlaw nuclear weapons in a brawl
Respect those who answer our call

Prayers when natural disasters befall
Equality for all nations in every trawl
A place for every culture at the mall
Creating goodwill by standing tall
Every voice is heard at town hall

About this poem:
Acrostic poetry style to hopefully list a few universal ideals for "Peace" which I believe really starts with 'respect' and 'equality' for everyone else in the world.

Love What You Always Did.

What's my role in this if i'm not making it?
Never ending battle to win it. but win what?

Mainstream is what i duck and avoid,
is that what keeps my mind played like a toy?

Rulers are blind to what they rule,
while society needs another new.

Idolizing the same old thing you "love".
...when there just more on the rise above.

Let the blind be blind,
that's the only way you can shine.

Only the end because that's what your psyche decided, while i'll be the one to end this instead... Remember don't be the one to be blinded.

Come Again.

So many familiar personalities
come, stay, then go in this reality

Watched as backstabbers escape
but just know they will be denied at heavens gate.

So appealed at peoples rat race,
pulling others down to climb up the corporate ladder to be first place.

For what? To stand on top looking at the ones they crippled?
...What they dished out has a major ripple.

Drugs only to ease the pain,
If caught jail to gain.

Always be open make smart humble decisions,
one state of mind isn't hard to surrender.

Pay attention to the right things that will get you ahead in the best way,
treat good and evil the same way.

Killing people with kindness is righteous,
only sometimes killing evil of it's blindness.

Stand for what you believe,
never lash out and you'll never bleed.

It's never the ones you need,
we are all one dig deep and you'll see.See More

Are You Impossible?

What you admire to me is expired,
It's sad to see what you looked up to retired.

You set yourself in a set path it seems I can't touch,
Well, have you been all the way to the bottom to embrace and clutch??

Are your eyes set on me like I think.
And for that does your "set path" start to shrink?

I bare through the ignorance to find what I love,
...Someone that can accept me and has the touch of a dove.

Can't extinguish the start much less the end,
everything around me now just seems blend.

I can feel an uprising soon,
something and someone that will send me satisfied to my tomb

One Day.

To the bottom onlt to find my advantages,
I've found my calling now to peel off these bandages.

When that certain feeling that no one hears you arrives,
find that certain outlet to channel, never deprive.

Kept focused but lost tack
now keeping focused to eventually attrack.

Tug-a-war to pull you in? Then i'm not playing, you win.
...Seems all anyone wants to do is follow trends.

Sometimes I bash myself too much for my past, if i keep that consisteint nothing will last.

Seeing the ugly as beautiful evey now and then,
will I ever feel normal again?

I can't speak to you in words how i feel,
but read my words for they are real.

Cylce

Who are you to give advice?
When you're also skating on thin ice,

Maybe a lot of times I don't make sense,
but at the end of the day I try my hardest to repent.

Contridicters play their harp,
disapointment in my heart.

Liars somehow to gain trust,
...but why play into the hate and continue to thrust?

We are on giant floating rock in space
no bottom, no top and no gates.

Space continues forever,
the unseens we will never treasure.

The bible to show us,
human being to throw us.

Give recognition for at least something above,
deny, push away you will never feel love

when your ready

Don't let it fool you
From the outside looking in
Those walls are made of hardness
An painted with a grin
So much to hide an maybe not
Its never really a sin
Your way to say not today
I hold the key to let you in
It maybe the distance of time
Thats procured your reasoning
Or just a lonely soul
Who doesn't know where to begin
Relationships broken
An thrown in the bin
Childhood dilemma's
Embracing a sin
There is always more that meets the eye
How you personify is at your whim
So you walk your way an i'll walk mine
An i'll acknowlege your painted grin
An when your ready to expose yourself
I'll listen with ear an kin

Please Sir , Mam

Modern toys for you and me
are dreams for others to
visualize but never see.
They have, but only food,
morsels for themselves
and their family.
Clothes are there nothing
special for not a one
for no money there for
eccentricities.
Each day they would wish
and dream for food enough
for the day.
They would even hope for
water to come there way.
This was the life of poverty
you see for everyone poor
was that way.
Can you not see how lucky
we are today to not have
to exist but enjoy life
in our own way.
Pray for those less fortunate
then thee for you know one day
it could even be me.

Paul Ryan

He's so handsome
He's so fit
He's as good looking as Sarah Palin
but he doesn't wear designer glasses
He comes from Wisconsin
Janesville to be exact
He has a wife and three children
He's a good speaker
But...
He wants to cut the budget
Take away social security
So they say
His running mate is Mitt Romney
He looks like an evil man riding a horse
He has shipped jobs away
He has money in Swiss Bank accounts
Like Sarah
Part of me wants to like him
But he is a Republican
Like Reagan and the Bushes
Not like Lincoln at all
I can't vote for him
I couldn't vote for Walker either
But you gotta admit
He's a good speaker

About this poem:
This whole election has me troubled. Last time I was all happy to vote for Barack Hussain Obama. Now it's like in 1992, but no Ross Perot to be found.
