Tears On Black Water

deep inside i hide from a enigma (enemy) which no one could believe a thing or thought no one will see taken in account that lives are not what they should be and everything is blanked out by what one should believe i now see it is over for me i will never become what i should be there is someone who is standing by to take it all from me i watched and looked and waited to find that these who live in glass houses don't really shatter when someone throws a rock they play in others houses made of sicks (sticks) suns (sons) and use the weak or in need to rid themselves of unwanted things (people) without getting the real punishment that all weaklings need so i will watch the thing i love most die and no head will role and only the most of me will die i can say that i will never forgive how do the dead do this? that what can only be asked of the living because how do you find tears on black waters no one is coming to save me just writing for history's sake..... warning: you make wake to the realness of the cold wars being waged in you own back yard who will they practice on next... this is not a fight i have already lost..... only the believed can fight power with poems!! by:Verlecia
