The Psalms of My Soul

the Psalms of my soul
 the eyes sees alot 
through the realities
of our struggles today
i can no longer be 
 quiet in the jungle
of disaster
while i live in an
illusion of paradise 
i realise life is not 
easy when humans
are far away from
reality 
so my soul bleeds
to a psalms of poetry

the Psalms of my soul 
the crys of the innocent
are ignored nowadays
like it sends no message
even when the walls painted
with the blood of the poor
shows the brutality of power  yet
it is waved away like nothing
happened
we grow in media as 
we rely on it ability of 
information 
yet it don't change reality 
in real reality 
i cant recall what benefit
life stands in truth 
if today we are still
in same system of yesterdays

the Psalms of my soul 
i wonder of life
cos a lot evil is obvious
in disguise of good
i think of love
where i perceived
a reality of wars
i see alot lies 
buried in our truth 
even when i feel 
i could say a truth 
i still panic 
out of my own thoughts
so above the hills of 
freedom i wish to lay
my thoughts 
as i pour out this 
poems i do in simple
English
 cos there lies 
the Psalms of my soul
