Chaos

The bodies have begun to pile
the stench of death grips the air,
no more can innocence find shelter 
as the structure of humanities wall

Crumble into chaos

Nations strike the heart of the East
Boom ! Again and again and again, 
still corpses pile up rotting in streets
as peace finds herself slipping away

Piece by bloody peace 

Strangers weep for sisters and brothers 
a bond not of blood, but unified grief,
we seek to find reason in a maelstrom 
we search soul less eyes for compassion 

finding only empty vessels  

Hardened by a retoric of brainwashed lies 
they've become monsters of suicide
the boogie man under the bed but now 
hes sighting the streets in plain view, 

She or He ? But WHO ? 

Fear has found a home in innocent hearts
children of the night gather trembling, 
Knowing not where the next bullet
or bomb or missile will finally strike home 

Stealing infinities breathe 

I dream of listless easy days 
when nightmares came only to dream,
and a light of the purest innocence 
rests unsullied on the heart humanity 


Hate is breed into humanity 
Its time to replace those genes
