Peace In Your Heart
Mother, I just put a bayonet in someone's heart and
found it warm with love, his last words were
goodbye brother, god have mercy on you.
I let the last touch of his hand on my heart,
gentle like the breeze of the night, and rested.
I bowed to him and held up my head to the sky
crying and saw the angles carrying him with their wings, singing
remember love and pain merge in songs.
What a moment, how beautiful the spectacle that was
rudely interrupted by the bullet piercing my skull.
