Oct 2012
The world my stage with shackled minds
By fits of rage
My anger will be known
With heaven bound & glory without
With the world unchecked
Fire I claim mine own
When Angels bleed & lose their wings
Through demons seed
It’s me who peeked there lust
When tears have trails & twisting paths
Of human failures
It’s me who slaughtered trust
When words of truth & festered hope
Become lies and smoke
It’s me who whispered first
When children dream of innocence lost
And old men scream
It’s me who mothers curse
When death is close and courage wanes
When goals seem so far
It’s me who dwells so near
My name is fear
And I live in the eyes
And on the frozen lips
Of those who do...
And who do not know.
