Poem Title:
Poem
In this I tale to all my tale of the life that I’ve been through And if I write this tale of life Then the tale I write be true And if found false beyond reasonable dought may all my name be cursed For I tell this tale with all my word and what left my word be worth In truth I write in sincerest hopes that of it you may read Though I pray you hold no sorrow dew for no sorrow is due to me The time has past that alas my heart be lost at sea For the tide at last has freed me of my past my selfishness and greed And all it left is a broken glass that reflects my sorrow and grief As the fall does turn the trees to bare upon the fall of the final leaf A vacant field of smoldering ash from the casualties former flame Is all that’s left to gaze upon upon the battle plane And as I lift my eyes to gaze and reflect on the lands fall The coldest grievance echoes through my head saying I could’ve stopped it all The distant words of an old negro spiritual begin to recite inside of me Oh what peace we often forfeit oh what needless things we meet And should be should scapegoat on what alter may our faults bare For all this do for we do not take everything to god in prayer Though always I hold these words in my heart and of them I do believe My faith bareith not enough to trust for my faith be incomplete Though complete enough to sustain in you that I do believe that you know the level of my faith therefore you won’t deliver me And in this I bare my deepest woe for in you my last hope lies For the angels that were all once hear to stay have to all my grievance died And name the murderer who sins name the committer of these deeds And in that name my heart doth break for the murderer is me So now as I stare at the dead war grounds of what use to be my home I hum the tune of the beast Jawloon for it be my SADDEST SONG
