Lamented, our landscape was clumsy Fated unfair, trying to find a way to comfort seized ideas Nearly painful, inverted history reveals itself Dishonored and banished claiming self-righteousness Asserting with clenched jaw, tolerance awaits Surpassing those sporting fragments of ignorance Within the atoms of actions and words, assertive consolations Your victory squabbles with verse, searching for the truth Indeed, this time strengthens the exile, regimes all confusion it hooks Unpredictable this persistence, to victory? Why? For what reason? Where is the value…the pleasure in each untrue atom of engineered utopias? Through this destruction by your hand, I can find no consolation Reward painting itself in the jaw of belief of steady sands of the ocean I stand by love, by the power and earnest search for truth Philosophy will not leave my side, yesterdays are not lost Ambitious solace, piercing visions, persistent in strength From which I have learned that temptation is the enemy Driving away wailings led me from grief to the directive light Moral visions transcribe without mistake what passions imply Today a cry reeks deep out of a grieving throat Sacked and pillaged by insidious corrosions Come ideas hijacking inventive poetic explosions Eager fortune sways to easily discern What was historical drama now lays fractured & burned Facts never be known, or the truth of intentional soul Yet, in a world sick of evil, for every betrayal There births a framework of justice compelling personal I choose to avail the root of moral certainty For the real justice swells, encircles by theoretical necessity Love is a martyr, beautiful and pure Allowing perpetrations heartless and cruel To recognize the theory of greed, banished by freedom In the end, no matter the pain, we die with dignity Personifying the rational, that it was worth dieing for For within death comes life, rest assure Truth is the personification of who a man is Enlightenment implies the warrior And having the courage to follow it...beyond all shadow of doubt In that is where I chose to stand, and die by that sword Then so be it, if I shall die alone! For I will always be the author |
