Society's Lie

By Gman

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

In a world of despairA small single flowerPierces through, to grow thereIt's a little bit of peaceBrought into the warThe bullets flying, ceaseTo see the flower's loreIt wasn't always this wayLands covered in red bloodThere once existed a dayWhen the rain made mudBut it seems societyHas made too many enemiesIntoxicated on sobrietyEmbellished in its atrocitiesWhy have we become so irateIt's crying shame, to seeTo be blinded by our hateHostages, in a world freeIt was given to use on loanWhat a mess we have createdAshamed, I call this homeWith numbness, I am sedatedAt this rate, we will destroyNot just each otherBut this our biggest toyWhat we call nature, our motherThese words are wastedOn blinded eyes, and deafened earsTo late, we have tastedThe hates,over years and yearsSo sit back and dieTo find the promises of lifeWhere society's lie Written October 31st, 2001 © on Oct 31 2001 12:09 PM PST   0 • 9
