Lands of paint, spilled across enemy lines
Sheared glass trickles up along the curvy plains
Teargas creaks in and out of stoned barriers
Gunfire sprays the murky skies with a distinct taste of cowardly cry
Suicide bombers bursting with pride
Soldiers peel off moving buses
Wads of blood scattered with an eerie ache
Families cry tears of shelled pain
Propaganda, a cancer without a cure
Morals slowly descend into the Dead Sea
Feathers of scared shrills scatter the infinite clouds
God’s wings a shadow of betrayal
Trains of poetic peace speed through beads of blood
Eyes are forever bloodshot
Pillars in shambles, crumbs for all those lost

This is a very powerfull piece.
You've really conveyed all the emotions of this terrible time.
Good write.

~Jennifer Nicole Boutilier~

*for someone who's used to heartache,losing it all was just a matter of time*
Be kind,for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle

Nice poem. I think it should have been posted in Dark Passions.

Ronil (A mask for everyday. Imagine a life without them.)
