There is a great glow on Jesus’ face
He was born to rescue the entire human race
Blessed are the people who believe in Christ
He is undoubtedly the divine priest
Him we should continuously pray
And keep the Satan at bay
If we don’t love our fellow human
We will never reach heaven
We should do our duty
The holy Bible exhorts us to take pity
Jerusalem is the Jesus’ birth city
Mother Mary has great piety
Jesus blossomed in the west
His teachings are the best
Our life on earth is a myth
Man forgets this eternal truth
Man incessantly hankers after riches
Doesn’t hesitate to delve deep into ditches
He tells spurious lies
And falls an easy prey to vice
He forgets the purpose of his life
And lives in perpetual strife
Jealousy and hatred are real hell
Only good things we should tell
We should never spread horror or terror
It is an inexcusable error
We should not fight for religion
Man should be peaceful in every region
God is indisputably one
Fighting for Him is real sin
We should be ready for the Doomsday
Christianity shows us the right way
The Bible leads us to the holy path
I think we will have the purification bath
We should get ready for the Sabbath
Jesus will give us his holy cloth
Jerusalem is still strong in my heart
sweet holy city of the wisest of kings
your temples still stand for faith
even in this age of change

From the walls of Jeircho
to the waters of the Nile
my knowledge of you
makes every sense to me

Israel is still a battle zone
with boarders of divisions
with men most holy
and many religions

Jerusalem is sung in churches
all over this distant land
you still stand for divinity
and I am one of your lambs

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris
Holy Jerusalem
City of god
City of peace
.
Wherever god is
Wherever peace is

There you will find
JERUSALEM!

(it is inside you
Within your heart)


There is a map which shows the WAY
There are many maps for there are many WAYS

Some say:
"There are many Jerusalems"
I don't know

There are many streets in Jerusalem
But no addresses

Everyone knows everyone in Jerusalem

THAT'S WHY IT
IS
JERUSALEM!

Jerusalem

It is there for those who have chosen to love god
To live in peace

It is right behind the VEIL
Of those who say
That you CANNOT live  this way

But you can!

IN JERUSALEM

Holy Jerusalem
City of god
City of peace

City where I dwell
.
I invite you home


Please please
Come to
Me
Maybe I expected too much,
A kiss with such passion it’d make me fall in love,
It would sweep me off my feet with its dialogue in tongue,
It would be every and anything I had thought it was.

It would be perfect.
Tilted head, parted lips,
Lusciousness and sweet glances,

A stroke to my cheek,
A gaze into my eyes,
Only to reach disappointment,
I slowly died inside.
When your first kiss with someone is not all you thought it would be...
By your appearance
you seem to be sweet,
But Beautiful Faces
are known to
have personalities
twice as ugly.
Just as one is to not judge a book by it's cover...

He felt nothing, I felt everything,
You were always my sweetest nightmare.
You destroyed me and I apoligized,
You are someone else's poetry now.

Saying goodbye
To someone you love
Is like reading the final page
Of an amazing book.

As the last chapter ends
You begin to notice
Just how beautiful
And perfect
The plot always was.  

You appreciate the joy
And even the pain
As you read and thumb
Through every page.

Finally understanding
The moral of the story,
You realize you've reached
The end of this journey.

Although the last sentence  
Is the most difficult to read
Another great book awaits
Once you turn the final page.

Eventually you may stumble
Upon yet another great find.
Or maybe you'll return
To the book you left behind.

You may just discover
Once all is said and done
That this particular book  
Was your favorite story
All along.
For Ty & Des ❤️

You're like the gap of silence between heart beats.
You leave me in anticipation,
consumed by utter contemplation,
Will I beat again?

You're like the rose surrounded by thorns.
There's no way to reach without getting pricked,
This is your way to avoid getting picked,
Is it worth it to bleed for your love?

You're like tide on any given day.
You're beautiful and yet unpredictable and coy,
Wielding the power to give or destroy,
Will I drown or will you save me?

You're just a person, someone with a name,
But in your world it is a zero sum game,
For you to be happy, others must suffer,
The choices are to either shatter or grow tougher.
