When poetry cry’s

When poetry cry’s 
So few achieved survival 
So many got stuck along the way 
Too many fell off the track
So many died before the end 
Too many got to the finish line but 
Couldn’t cross over 
So many drawn on the high sea 
Too many gave up the pain with their last breath 
Cos the desert was so too hot to bear
So many wishes were made before this trip 
Too many prayers was said along the way 
So many songs of inspiration from the voices willing to make it 
Too many feared yet kept courage alive 
So many were brave yet destiny was so far from luck 
Too many keep hoping to make it through at last 
So sad that all this victims were just 
Escaping 
Yes escaping Just to find a better life 
For the days yet to come 






When poetry cry’s 
Relate with reality my friend
Cos you can never know 
What a new day can bring 
So tonight my pen bleeds 
Only for the quest of humanity 
How could the strong help the weak 
How will the fathers of our land be 
Our true mentors
How could we walk the road of peace 
Together 
How is it impossible to love one another 
How can we grow pass wars 
Or are we meant for destruction 
Where I ask again is the conscience 
Of the world 
How come we suffer just to live 
How long will people keep dying Just 
To escape poverty 
Is a shame to humanity 
If ignorance of peace 
is pass on from generation to generation 
How can we do better 
Cos the kids needs a save planet to grow 
The young needs to truth to save our future 
So tonight my pen bleeds for peace again 
Let’s set ourselves free 
Life is beyond mere manipulation 
We can do better today for the days 
Yet to comes else 
We keep bleeding and this is 
When poetry cry’s 




Tributes to the struggling 
Common man 
Dedication to the world 
We need peace
