I have seen the face of death
The irony of hatred
The hand of evil
I have watched the world collapse
The sky surround
A horror of such magnitude
That my mind has gone silent
In the ugly scream
Of an unimaginable sound
I have heard the world explode
With the urgency of no ugly words
The ground sucked in lost realities
Surreal the steps of all fallacy
What once was alive in trepid hope?
Lost in one moment
The explosion of the eyes of evils scope
The plague of adversity holds us
In his hand
An unknown victim of the worlds
Complacency, can you understand?
It never was, what once there was
A false sense of existence
Has now been sadly born
The miseries of the human strife
The color of hate is not the color of flesh
It surrounds the weak, the lost the forlorn
There are no words, nothing more
Nothing more…
Nothing more…
Something less
(written with tears 9/12/01)
and when I ask you what’s the worst thing about being there
and you say nothing because you ‘want’ to be there
my heart stops
and I want to kiss your cheek
stroke your face
look into your eyes
and show you what
my ‘thank you’ means
thank you for every day you have given
to every name you don't even know
thank you for every hour you have given to me
i am lucky...truly
