please, please
explain to me
how these words
can be reality
is this the world
i thought
i knew?
is this the one
through which
i flew?
are these
the buildings
i saw before
now twisted
and burning
people falling
show me no more
is this the land
i grew up in
and laughed
and cried
and buried
my sin?
is this my world
where i was born
where i was fed
every night
and morn?
i don't want
an answer
just take me away
i can't bear
the burned memories
of my childhood days
this earth
is not worthy
of the people bestowed
or is it the people
no love to land
have showed?
please tell me no answers
but tell me more lies
i don't want to remember
the days of my life

it's a very strange poem. strange indeed but i am just writing it about my old neighborhood which i went through today. the first verse was inspired partly by the comment i wrote on someone else's poem but i'll shut up now and let you write whatever you want for a comment. bye!

life may just take a while but i guess heaven's worth the wait

You don't need to make yourself shut up, SD.
Sometimes, when you're trying to make a point, you have to keep talking. (or writing)
well, anyway. (I say anyway, too much.)
This also was a very good poem..
I hate, also, how things change, and want to be fed a mouthful of lies.
Ah, that reminds me of this one Kitty song...
"your mouth will be of led and lies."
or something like that...
Any 'who'... Wonderful poem, once again.

If we follow the invisible line of hatred, it will lead us straight to our hearts.....    and pierce.
