How can so much hate exist in world of such beauty
As the fire rages on I beg for the rain
The wedge digs in and I/'/m confused by the reason
Sidelined by the constant persuits in greed
Money just a knife to carve the divide
If I could stop the suffering I gladly shed my last breath
Could I bleed hard enough to save a life
Id take up the blade and do it myself
Stand on opposing sides drawn out as enemies
But the truth runs deeper still
And its true there more than one side to every coin
Though bound by a bridge of mental
A bond that keeps it as one
And if it were to burn they would all burn with it
Death is honesty personified
Ignorance is cast away when sleep comes etarnal
I only hope I live long enough
To witness a time when kids are forced to shed their purity
Because in their eyes is the only place you find reason
Before all the world destory innocents
Kept in the dark, Because they see only light
To awe struck in wonder to notice the pain
Then the hands of reality strip them of love
Standing besides us, Hate takes hold
The standered of living means that heart grows numb
To be anything you have to feel nothing [comments] => 4 [counter] => 209 [topic] => 8 [informant] => WellEyeDo [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => AmericanTragedy ) Your Poetry Dot Com - The Void Today

The logic in my eyes only strengthens my emotion
How can so much hate exist in world of such beauty
As the fire rages on I beg for the rain
The wedge digs in and I/'/m confused by the reason
Sidelined by the constant persuits in greed
Money just a knife to carve the divide
If I could stop the suffering I gladly shed my last breath
Could I bleed hard enough to save a life
Id take up the blade and do it myself
Stand on opposing sides drawn out as enemies
But the truth runs deeper still
And its true there more than one side to every coin
Though bound by a bridge of mental
A bond that keeps it as one
And if it were to burn they would all burn with it
Death is honesty personified
Ignorance is cast away when sleep comes etarnal
I only hope I live long enough
To witness a time when kids are forced to shed their purity
Because in their eyes is the only place you find reason
Before all the world destory innocents
Kept in the dark, Because they see only light
To awe struck in wonder to notice the pain
Then the hands of reality strip them of love
Standing besides us, Hate takes hold
The standered of living means that heart grows numb
To be anything you have to feel nothing
