The rise or fall of a single manA Poem by Kenneth Nicholas Lowe
This holy filth upon the mind is driving me insane
I thought about the years before, it's now a different game When all around my killing field, good and evil looks the same You tried it once, you tried it all, no good will cease the pain To run and hide, your unborn fate will catch you in the dark Try to find some peace of mind, with roses in your palm The roses are stained with red, by the griping of your hope Your lies and deeds were the rose's seed, karma found it's soul Like a boomerang, it finds the hand of its owner, true to heart The return, is surely twice of thrust, no face can hide its mark It's hallowed blades unbinds you, it's patience, will keep your guard Your begging won't absolve you, your bleeding is the charge Your insanity's killing spree, will leave lost and damned No holiness or judas kiss, too late for prays and plans These hollow walls around, will soon coming crashing in Your maker will never find you, the devil turned away from sin The long forgotten sunshine, will turn your wounds to green With a parasitic harvest, your mind and body screams The nights of song and days of long have lost their taste in time You leave yourself to torment, you fill yourself with wine Your bloody eyes and fading smiles, your body is not to command Your wandering highs and fetal lows, your mind is not to demand Your lost in your own exile, your free in your own bounds Your torn in two, with room for one, a death without a sound Objects once your pleasure, have turned an ugly friend Your pain, a twisted comfort, in overdose you swell Your will to live, to see this through, odds are never in you favour Your the greatest of Adam's kin, no proof to show your labour There are some of ye with the will of, Richard the lionhearted The most of ye will plunge your soul, from this world departed The lion hearts that faced their fall, will spawn a seed of Spartan favour The rest of ye will sink with me into an abyss of no slumber © 2014 Kenneth Nicholas Lowe |
