My eyes weep when they sweep this ground,

shattered dreams scattered all around.

Frightening night clouds swarm all around me,

a comfort to disguise the haunting things I see.


The strange turns stranger,

asΒ Β time warps and bends,

watching empires rise and fall

in consecutive trends.

Watching glorious wrecks of religious sects

battling each other

over decaying, dust specs.


By now,

my heart with broken nerves

hears no more,

for the water can no longer

soothe this shore.

This place is ******, warped into bubbling sadness

of mind spewing,

devastating,

madness.


And then I see you,

you that crowned your self their king,

providing tools

for tormented fools

to abuse themselves

over the sins they bring.

Lined up for infinity

to wait their turn,

some seek to be tortured,

*****,

or burned.

How could you?

And how can they?

Even now,

for all that I have seen,

I do not understand

what all of this abomination means.

Forgive me now for I must go,

I pray for you all,

I pray you all regain your hope.
