Notes About The Poem

- Black Roses -

To our world, we are traitors filled with hate
Confidence we had, turned to wonder and doubt
The spirit of brotherhood is divided into a thousand pieces

_________/)______./¯"""/')
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯\)¯¯¯¯¯'\_„„„„\)


The face of a sincere soul, bleed never loose battle
It's time to wash away the blood of guilt
Testing the earth durability with bombs and heavy weapons


_________/)______./¯"""/')
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯\)¯¯¯¯¯'\_„„„„\)


Look me in the eyes, the dream is killed
This is the reality
From another place and time, a beautiful garden

_________/)______./¯"""/')
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯\)¯¯¯¯¯'\_„„„„\)


Returning to the world that was heaven
What will we sacrifice to go back there
The world has changed in pain
