Two strangers

Two strangers wandering through the night

Eyes as empty as midnight's ghost

Following nothing but the darkness

Never have their eyes befallen joy

So never will they know a reason to cry

Nothing can consume their empty souls

As there is nothing there to feast upon

They do not know where they are going

Nor do they know what surrounds them.

And following the darkness is a long road

Only the moon knows who they really are

They are the fear we do not know is there

When the sky turns dark, they come out of hiding

Two strangers wandering through the night

Disappear before hope has returned

WE ARE WAR

WE ARE WAR

   

All the things we swore to forget, we remembered.

All the things we swore to save, we let perish.

All the things we swore to never say, we said.

All the things we swore to stay with, we left.

We are the people who destroyed people.

The people who destroyed empires.

The people who destroyed worlds.

I hope you know that we are not on your side.

I hope you know that we will never surrender to the war that you created.

We shall not end it.

If you are stupid enough to keep fighting against us, an invisible army, then so be it.

I hope that you are ready for us because we show no mercy.

Look at what we’ve made.

We’ve made weapons and  machines capable of killing in an instant.

Music boxes, filled with the sound of joy, now play the music of death.

Yet you still trust us?

And you know who we are.

We are you…

Poem

Come home

Come home father

Why did you leave?

You left my mother

And you left me

All of our memories

Are fading away

Tears and sadness

Why didn't you stay?

It's been so long now

Here without you

Mothers got cancer

I've got the 'flu

Scared of the hospital

Scared of the cries

All of them dying

Please dry my eyes

I'm getting old now

I've moved away

Wrinkles are forming 

Hair turning grey

I'm still your baby

Mother has gone

She forgot to love you

Where'd it go wrong?

Come home father

Why did you leave?

I'm moving to heaven

Meet me there please
