Premium Member Battle Scars

Don’t judge that kid with her arms all scarred
Don’t brand that kid as bad
You never would have survived 
If you had the life she had
So say a prayer and show you care
She’s paid more than her share of dues
Don’t put her down or say bad things
Until you’ve walked that mile in her shoes
Those who suffered in war earn respect
They are greeted like super stars
She came from a war you wouldn’t understand
On her arms, the battle scars
Her own home was the battle zone
The desperation, feeling all alone
A situation she felt no escape from
Then late at night the urges come
Innocence lost like a bad dream
No self respect, no self esteem
It is an ongoing battle to feel whole
You can see the beauty within her soul
Sometimes I pray for a Judgement day
You have no heart if you look away
Flashbacks come and the anger stirs
The guilt she carries isn’t hers
There is a need for justice long past due
A need for acceptance from me and you
With anger, despair and fear demanding
The child needs some understanding
In spite of all the tears she cried
There are still battle scars deep inside

Raid On Aids

RAID ON AIDS

 

Methuselah’s age, wisdom produce

Longevity a dream comes true

Humanity, cuts a perfect picture

Our existence, evolved in pleasure

A good life, mortals must treasure

Be very shrewd, to mark a measure

Riotous life, concludes your closure

By a dove’s wisdom, uphold a future.

 

 

Productivity groans in decline

Man’s extinction draws its line

A universal pandemic, in every clime

Reckless mortals, faintly holds to time

Time ticking, the end is bleak

Many a robust dream fades in a leak

Can we then pitch a niche at the peak?

A many vision with hearts, it breaks

The very raid, is coming from aids

A careless lay, you are sealed with aids

Jailing the libido, then be spared the raid

 

 

Raid on aids

Not just an African affair

With a universal sense, all must be fair

This fight involves, plenty conscious pair

The rampaging aids is not a friend

Yes! Viciously a means to an end

Let’s unleash a raid on aids,

Indeed the monstrous aid is on the raid

 

 

The aids raid may put up a scare

Raid on aids, let’s charge in offense

A surprise attack, it beats a retreat

Raiding the monster, will save our world

A whole new world free from its raid

Moral adherence, tames this beast

Abstinence pairing fidelity makes the champion

Be very smart, guarding your loins club.

One casual adventure, will perhaps seal your fate

 

 

I dare, but ask?

Should we raid the aids?

Who can dare its geometric raid?

Aids indeed, deserves the raid

For humanity sake, lets put paid on the aids

An all out war against the aids

A raid on aids, will aid the world

 

 

Raid the aids, only not on the pages

Actors war better on stage

Let’s wear rage,

And confine it, to its cages

So humanity will leave through the ages.

 

 

 

A  dedication to humanity’s global fight against the deadly scourge,  AIDS,
