Ignorant Lullabies

Ignorant Lullabies

Hail Mary, the Lord should be with thou

sinful self

Upon a world you create of selfish

hate and endless stains of self- pity.

 

Truthful tears run down a face,

looking to the stars for confirmation

of who to be on a harsh night of

stinging words and actions that

can never be revoked.

 

Praise the Lord for he knows

the agony you should and the sobs

you moan before the last amen.

Empty heavens and hushed words of

concern for your soul.

Help is an empty threat that echoes

hollow failures in a world of false

smiles.

 

Hear me, for I should the loudest truth,

as my words fall like burnt out ash

upon an ignorantly paternal world.

 

Hush little girl for your words

need a kind hand to guide them towards

whats right,

whilst we, the righteous individual

get high on life itself and lead you

towards a peaceful green lullaby.

 

Break away, but your words have bruised

the innocent face which you wish to soften the blow

of the truthful thoughts of your truest knowledge of

all things black.

 

Silence your music,

for I do not understand.
