This is about religion and my past faith. (Inspired by Flyleaf's new c.d)

--------------------------------------------------

I once found something that made sense
But I heard fools always believe
In their naive state of mind
Every lie working a way to deceive

True others believed the stories
And I had hope with all my heart
That the wise man's words were true
But doubt twisted me and contort

My hope was broken among the thorns
An empty feeling took its place
People casting their shame
Leaving me a target in disgrace

Where are my broken shards?
Where is that forsaken hope
I need some refugee
Some words to help me cope

First of all, I love Flyleaf! Alot!

Anyways...

This is a totally awesome poem, Zach. I can really relate and I'm sure that there are many that can.

Sorry I haven't been commenting on your poems lately, just been busy. I'll comment on more of them soon.
