Striking upon with justice,
Future generations waver.
Life breaks free!
It trembles, shatters, breaks!
He strikes and plows the land,
With death he offers justice.
Man and woman the core price,
Turning into vivid embers.
A poem inspired by Hellsing Ultimate's OST - Monster of God

too lonely to beat
too painful to bear

hold on tight
and make it right

take off the mask
and let them watch

they are the judge
to make things right

Cherokee Proverb
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

Before you judge
a man for his sins
be sure to trudge
many moons in his moccasins.

It's not Your fault; You're just the epitome,
The manifestation of this society,
Or maybe the race as a whole -
From start to end, You played this role.

After all, was not Noah the sole fool
Who loved the Lord and became His tool?
And the sinful world around him jeered -
Lonesome Noah was thought quite weird.

You represent all my social trauma,
My insecurities and highschool drama.
You have everything I want to be.
I lie in chains but you are free.

Socrates, too, was condemned by You,
Killed with poison for the truth he knew.
You said it was for the good, but no,
It was Your pride that acted so.

You're popular, sporty, pretty, small.
I'm lonely, artsy, ugly, tall.
You do bad things and the teachers love you.
I do my best and... nothing.

Jesus was rejected by his own kind,
The Jews who had once been blind.
They mocked Him who deserved their praise,
Thanked His mercy with a wooden raise.

You're showy, bratty, loud, and cruel.
I'm nervous, friendly, quiet, a fool.
Wherever you go, you find friends.
I act like you and my hole deepens.

No, I'm not Noah nor Socrates,
Not Jesus or who else you please,
But I'm in a similar boat as they.
Tears and pain wash me today.

All the pain I feel inside my heart
Is worsened when You play Your part.
You're like all the others, but I chose
The model as the cause of my woe.
A jealous person tries to justify their hatred of someone with more popularity than them.

I want to see you,
but you're nowhere to find.
I wan't to see us.
There's not an us.
And I,
I'm dancing with the shadows,
shameless;
I'm calling myself for forgiveness,
doors closed.
I don't even see me,
anymore.
If you don't forgive yourself and instead chose to shut the doors to your feelings how will anyone else get to see you truly?

all this study
for something I never loved
            -in a world full of judge-
for an exam I'll never pass
and even if I did,
life wouldn't care a bit
counting hours before an exam I don't really care about but have to pass if I want to get my degree one day.

His hair was
l
o
n
g
and
g
r
e
a
s
y.

His teeth could use a brush.

His clothes was old and tattered.

From the outside he looked quite dangerous.

His face was scratched and *****.

He looked hungry and thirsty.

But no one knew that he was a genius,
because they had judged him on being homeless.


His mind worked fast,
but all people thought was that he was an outcast.


And no one even wanted to talk with him,
because we people judge on what we see.


But if only we could forget
that money,
does not make you a wealthy
somebody
.
We all judge. What would it be like if we didn't?

There are days when nothing seems right
What ever you do is a mistake
You try to hold it together a little longer
Just hoping that you won't break

They say you can't handle the pressure
Deep down you know that's not true
Take responsibility for your own actions
There's no better judge than you

It's your life not theirs
They won't receive judgment from you
Because you're the bigger person
They know they make mistakes too

The day judges me.
I don't smile? - I am an emo.
I avoid their eyes? - I am arrogant.
I don't fight back? - I am weak.
No one wonders why.
Instead they use me 'till I am lying on the ground.

Helpless
Defenseless
Alone

The night doesn't judge me.
She embraces me like a warm blaket.
She protects me like a strong shield.
She comforts me like a caring mother.
In the night I can be me.
I can cry and she catches my tears.
I can look into her eyes and she sees my soul.
I can tell her my secrets and she keeps them forever.

She keeps me save.
