History's Sad Song (Revised)

throughout my life
I've heard many a sad song
relating to the lyrics
that seemed to play too long

way back during the Crusade

I´m here to bring you
What you don´t need
Another heartfelt poem

Worth less than
Chewed gum
America I’m tapping
At your window
At 3 am
With a bag full of
Sour wine
And a shopping list
Of grievances
America wake up
It´s me and I...

I flung...

I can't keep silent of one youth.

Priceless pawns purged into war, but in vain, 
for the fall of the king marks the start of a...

Sweet flowing hands
Sweeping charm
Dancing slowly
Like wings
of a butterfly

His eyes - gentle, perceiving, acknowledging
In the midst of silence, he's aware of her every move

Sliding along 
Shuffles feet
as arms 
go back
Taking snake shape
The great cobra strikes

His lips...

Poetry flows above me
I ghost write and show the lyrics disguise me.

the style is free.

It intrigued the mind of Tolkien 
It inspires us to be free
Often it encourages me

It lurks in the dark
It has no end but must start
It hides in our minds
