ISIS

Embedded image from another site



From far away
the world sees the video
westerner's beheaded
a mother's tear drops far away
the house is weeping
mother I love you
I kiss the moonlight
I kiss the moon face farewell...

ISIS chants Islam
they violate Islam
burn a pilot
they are savage dogs
rabid dogs
carrying a knife in their pocket
asking the world if it has a problem
although the problem is you...

You brainwash your youth
telling them
roses are blue
violets are red
because that's what Allah tells you
because you are blind...

ISIS what separates us from the animals
what separates us from chaos
maybe it is
the ability to mourn
people we've never met
although a stealth bomber
and a suicide bomber
both kill for political reasons...

Questions

There’s no god, it’s all a lie, just stories to tell your children.
All my life I’ve lived this way, the way where god’s not present.
I suppose I’ve sinned, so many times, if you go by that religious credo.
Now my time the end it nears, there are questions that need answers.
What if I’ve been wrong, and they are right, heaven and hell exists.
These questions through my mind they run, as seconds turn to minutes.
All too quickly these minutes add up, as my remainder is counted in hours.

wild child

WILD CHILD


No one could handle no one could control

that forlorn lost look that asunder of soul

left so delusioned with fair of face

no one had seen the wild childs distaste

embittered and fractured no stable abode

through your own lawless means of retaliation you strode

fighting your peers turning to crime

rebelling the system in total decline

no help when needed so why should you care

when self preservation was a normal affair

do what you must do what you will

an overload of emotion possessed to fullfill

no family no friends left all on your own

simmering confusion about to be shown

no love was given no affection to receive

honesties now wavered you'd transformed to deceive

care homes and prison couldn't halt your behavoural streak

keep on offending musn't show you are weak

strong in the wrong sense that habitual misguiding

no room for sentiment no room for hiding

and so the wild child was born upon that first breath you made

disfunctional upbringing they'd be a price to be paid




Another older ode a little darker.. its fictional with my own twist on things!

City of pain

Heartbeat weak,
About to stop,
Like the windings
of a worn out clock,
Only the faintest of
ticks and tocks,
I stare in despair
at the repair shop,
Every door,
boarded and locked,
Come with me see
We'll take a walk,
Through the streets
of a town that time forgot,
I'll talk of things
that used to be,
Tales of people
like you and me,
The roads will tell
of a brighter time,
Busy, bustling passersby,
Laughing, talking,
living life,
Now only lonely echoes
and broken street lights,
Down dead end alleys,
Past memory lanes,
Trash and litter
all over the place,
Dumpsters all full
like its garbage day,
Desolate and deserted
so noone stays,
Just one inhabitant
stands in the rain,
Alone in his own,
City of Pain...

Raw

I go for the bottle to steady my nerves

The day has not yet begun

Last night was all laughs and fun

He leaves with a quick goodbye who is this guy

My heart is low I take a gulp of sweet surrender then another and another

It dosnt take my rawness away but exposes me and hits me hard

Like the bottle I smash to the ground

In a thousand fragments.




Peach.

SAVE ME

I do close to nothing most everyday
endless indignation impedes my way
Inescapable depression my Kryptonite
so draining it negates ability to fight

In a paralyzed fetal position I lay crying
attacks of panic from thoughts of dying
Decaying inside whispering walls
frantic for someone to hear my calls

Personal demons often infiltrate my mind
ways to avoid them I am unable to find
Faith is gone but hope shan't reach dead
will to live hangs by the thinnest thread

I've become consumed by sorrow
inducing me to dread tomorrow
Home depicts a lonely prison cell
'Save me' from my personal hell

In this utterly wicked world I don't belong
life the alleged "Gift" turned out horribly wrong

Time To Give Up

Time to give up
The national debt is over 17 trillion
Drones are everywhere
The population of the world is over 7 billion people
Isis is winning
Ebola is running rampant
Bullies control our schools
Modern music sucks because of stolen music on the internet
People are going in debt over fancy gizmos, like cell phones
In spite of over 30 plus years of harping, Americans are fatter
Innocent people are jailed in mass
Robin Williams killed himself
I can name countless serial killers, but not one of their victims
An illegal alien has a better chance of getting a job than an American
The catholic church continues to protect p*dophile priests
Mechanics are legal crooks
So are politicians and cops
Electric cars are too expensive, even though they would make clean air
Fruits and vegetables are too expensive to eat
Pop and junk food are cheap(dollar menu at McDonald's)
Security Finance, Cash Call, Check Into Cash, can charge 312% interest
Most jobs pay crappy wages and have crappy working conditions

where are you?

at night when the ghost are out
it's so much easier for me
to ask the stars
where I can find you.

I am hoping they'd all lit up
and tell me that they've found you
and tears flow no more
that my waiting is all done.

you're found!
here back in my world
you might not belong to me
and I'm okay with that
I just have to know you're alive
not lost
among the oceans of fallen angels
but here with us
the good thing about it
is that we can always change
we can always start all over again.

and that is my biggest hope
to change for the better
I've learned that from you

soon when I'll see you
I'll be in good spirit
wishing you the best
that which you deserve
something we've failed to find
within us

and you definitely deserve the best
so all my wishes for you
from the bottom of my heart.

game of love

When winning is the name of the game
But find your heart exploding
And true messages are in hiding
Be wary of truths for its beguiling

I fell in love with all the right reasons
With a man so full of passion
I worshiped the grounds he stepped on
And true love we were both charmed

But as time passed and loved deeper
White and light color became darker
Passion and considerations disappeared
Replaced with disrespect and fear

Love indeed has many faces
If unguarded it can deeply blind us
Inflictions of pain and sorrow follows
Burying us in destitute

I'm careful now, I've learned well
For life can become a living hell
But as long as I'm alive l won't give up
For there's true love out there waiting to be found.
