But to walk amongst the wild roses
In this cruel world, 
There is no peace but the Rose Meadow....

tiny boy crawled inside
she covered him up
hiding him from the cruel world
never letting him go
he was safe...

What This Cruel World Is About
When victims of world 
           Injustice system 
Speak the truths about it , 
Beneficiaries of the system 
Always laugh at them.

Cruel World
Tainted souls and Twisted minds
Unfair world.
Vicious trolls win the polls
Withering honor that once stood strong
Yet Hope persists to right the wrong....

Steal away my pain.
I have nothing left to say.
Heal my broken heart.

Running to you with open arms.
Through a cruel world full of harms....

Cruel World
Cruel world! 
we are always changing for others
           suffering  for them
             satisfying them
   but we most never get a return
we hurt ourselves much than we know....

Premium Member All the Tears
If all the tears that ever fell
    from lovers' hearts broken
  were to flood the conscience
    of this erstwhile cruel world

  Why, then, things wouldn't
    change one iota
       would they?...

The Sparrow
a humble brown bird
chirping merrily at dawn
none but a small girl enjoyed
this gentle music
far away she sadly flew
leaving this tired cruel world
to the silent house of God


Dedicated to the ever vanishing Sparrows....

For My Valentine
Although you may feel all alone 
Afraid without a cause 
lost inside today's cruel world
and feeling oh so small.

Just remember who you are 
and how strong you really can be 
life can be so beautiful 
like how beautiful you are to me....

Injustice
Demented Fusions
Comic Illusions
Why can’t you tell me why Justice won’t work?
I can’t stand your games.
Stop playing games.
I can’t stand your simple attitude.
No more
Modest prophecy
A becrazed homeless world
No more
No more of this cruel world...

An Angel Or a Devil
Both in you and both are together,
Solo isn’t a word for it,
Cruel world doesn’t have place for one of it,
Devil is better for scoundrel,
And so is an angel better for angels, 
Disney world ain’t real,
As soon as you believe it’s preferable for tranquility....

It Is a Cruel World Out There
It is a cruel world out there 
But, we must find the strength to live 
It cannot stay cloudy forever 
Something has got to give 
Everyone goes through the struggle 
That is where we learn the lesson 
Take things one day at a time 
So we can receive the blessing...

Truth
In this cruel world, everywhere is the law
and I have been hurled, human kind made a flaw
the convictions, the afflictions, the harsh states of mind,
some are never in a bind, but to help some there's addictions
to help handle the afflictions
and to help some people unwind...

In this cruel world full of insanity,
fueled by selfishness and greed,
you could lose your life
if you want more than you need
by burning in a bonfire
of your vanity.

Premium Member Windows To the Soul
Eyes are not the only window to a soul, words show so much more.
Whether words of joy, wisdom or pain, they are emotions in ink.
To see the whole of you in print, bared to the cruel world, takes a great courage.

Dammed as dead as a dessert of the cruel world expert on expiration and determination of soul searching embracing a journey long lived dust and bones left the decaying of a box determining visiting hours flowers tears regrets expansions of dates

HOW THIS CRUEL WORLD IS ALWAYS ABOUT
some hypocrites
are singing,
"Love " 
at one hand
and supporting rules
to terminate 
other folks 
at other hand.
As they always 
want to be riches 
and manage to protect
their illegal resources 
by killing poor people 
systematically
and seizing 
their belongings 
daily....

The Wild One
Release me o adventurer
Wild spirit that forges life into the world
Release me o captor
O mundane cruel world

Your savage spirit lies waiting, stirring, screaming
Release me
I am the wild one
I am the risk taker
The adventurer
It is untamed land I seek
In a world too tame and bleak...

Premium Member Emotions In Ink
Your eyes are not the 
only window to your soul. 
Words show so much more. 

Whether words of joy, 
words of wisdom or of pain. 
Emotions in ink. 

To see the whole you, 
in print, bared to the cruel world, 
takes a great courage. 

Healing of old wounds 
may not be possible, but 
it lessens the pain....

Cold World
Cold World
  Blizzards pass, storms ensue,
  Snowy paths, guide my view.
  Where roaring winds are in pursuit, 
  my heart is where hope is imbued.
  
  Laying the bedding, in earth’s full view,
  I hunker down, and slumber ensues.
  Where hope is, I am in pursuit, 
  For this cruel world is in need of review....
