#offence
Offence has no real validity, Yet it is used to justify the taking of lives Is there one, that the world does not offend If so that person has not lived or felt, Warlords, rapists, racists, murderers and those who are cancers on society walk among us daily Those who profess to know the will of god and act on his behalf, Perceiving  and executing unhelpful dogma that infects our reality   The words respect and correctness have become harbingers for cowards, As our muteness silently strips us of our freedom, Apologies are offered gift wrapped in fear Sticks and stones still break our bones but pictures and words now **** us**

The worst Place to be On a battle field, Is taking cover From the man Firing at you with Blank rounds.

dont hide from whats not there
An itch of an inch – scratching to reach that place we once walked; it was almost the measure of love; with elevating conversations that led to a level of trust. Now wearing linen divorce clothes, to separate the time that wore us down; as I carried a smile in a frown; as we all plant a seed of respect we have for others, hoping in due time it flourishes. But trust me, winter is loveless – summer is the state of your heart, where the sun still longs to shine even when it’s hidden behind the clouds. Love is needless, to those who only respond by the own feelings; looking for someone just to entertain them, by only giving them a good feeling. As all my bones break in despair; at the sound of the skeletons, I must break in my closet – my soul shakes like the trees caught in a storm; with electric branches. I’ve been struck down; made to be someone with no passion, no meaning, or digression. Passive-aggressive – only out of annoyance; for an inch of my life, revolves around entertaining people who show pieces of their true colours, and still expect me to act colourblind. _How they offend my sight!_

Offended sight
The heart wants The hand speaks Through the middle ground The birdie flies well tempered Peaks
