Poetry from the soul.

For the Sake of Love

I walk in a blind world
Its heart has become hard
Its ears are now deaf
Like a cataract, the blindness spreads.

They slaughter without conscious
Lie devoid of intention
As they bow to death
And become enslaved to its power.

They forgot how to love
Forgot kindness existed
They forgot the truth
So worshiped a lie.

And I fight
Not for Freedom
Not for Equality
Not even for you.

I fight so truth is told
And love made known
I will battle till my death
I will fight for us all.

But don’t be mistaken
These words don’t bring peace
These words make child fight father
While brother kills brother.

I’ve been told they’ll hate me
I’ve been told they’ll exalt me
But I don’t fight with a sword
My sword is the word.

Yet when they kill
For their hate of love
For their love of hate
I’ll stand and smile
For the sake of love.

Did you see the city?

Did you see the city?
Burning without flames
Did you hear the city?
Where the song of silence sings

This is the city.
Where the free are born in chains
Where the skyscrapers cry,
For the blood of their slave

This is the city.
Where Babel was rebuilt
Where self imposed Gods dine,
Feeding on a beggars crumb

This is the city.
Like Atlantis lost in time
Both behind and before,
Yet now the sinful saints fall

Did you smell the city?
Burning without smoke
Did you feel the city?
Trembling in its hope

Dear Scotland

Dhá millennium ago
The butcher diced Gaelic brains
Watching blood ooze from the veins 
Still they held immunity
To not caress Rome’s vanity
A Childbirth Juxtaposed

Scotland’s freedom triumphed
Behind a wall in isolation
Devoid of foreign entanglement
Their glory was theirs alone

English Kings grew jealous
So English Kings did march
The kilts where burnt in blazes
The kilts where born in blood

For three centuries of time
The wars of blood did loll
Brave heroes died immortal
Till Scotland’s peace did fall

A Scottish King would rule both lands
Such irony be heard
Scottish knees that bowed before
Now walked on England’s throne

A birth given not in blood
A marriage given without love
Two nations then, one nation now
Seventeen O’ Seven

Welcome to this noble land
Free markets born
Steam engines roar
Bacteria are damned

Yet happy endings did not come
For Peace did meet his match
Our soldiers died eternal deaths
As poppies fed off thistle and rose

An elected Caeser now sailed the sea
So soldiers bore war for liberty
In kilts they duelled, in kilts they died
For English Boys and Scottish Girls

Now blind men walked the earth
For the chasm was hard to see
The sick lay cared by Doctors
While The Doctor walked our screens

Welcome to this noble land
Sporting muggles born
Wizards soar
Mars bars are deeply fried

Yet the ghost of divorce comes creeping
Though not born in blood
He steals away our love
Twenty O’ Fourteen

Now Scotland you must choose
To keep or break your vows
I ask that you would stay
Leaving walls to histories’ town

So Salmond can you kid
If you think old Britain’s done
For though not born in love
The Union still is one.

The Wave

I’m in a wave
I’m in an all consuming wave
A wave born out of the chasm in Gods heart
It’s when my soul meets his, and then meets another

This is not a tame seaside wave
This is a cosmic, eternal invincible wave
It’s a wave that will carry on, till I’m dead in my bones
It’s a wave that will carry on, till time is buried in his grave

This wave is so powerful, it’s carrying me paralyzed
My heart cannot simply contain what this wave has put inside of me
The wave goes as far as I can see, and as far as I can see it’s pounding straight for me

This is wave that will have cataclysms on the being of time itself
It is an all consuming wave that leaves my heart breathless in amaze
You see this is a wave that has come over me since the day it began

A small wave at first, is now reaching land
Like a tsunami let it destroy all that it may reach
Like a hurricane may it destroy the foundations of alters on which our knees bow

This is a wave that echoes in the eternal history of time
It is a wave that comes from the sea of love
In all four forms of love

This is a wave that leads men to die
It is a wave that was born of blood
That has been moving through generations
Until its will would be done

This is the wave that will see all things come
It is the wave that creation has longed for in eager expectation
This is the wave that will bring captives from there chains

This is the wave that will bring a broken hurting world free from pain.

END.

This is the end
Humanity’s last futile breath
All the tyrants, born self-proclaimed Gods
All endured for nothing.

When the ice blood stops pumping
After Humanity wakes at the dusk of immortality
What will we remember?

Power, Wealth, Status.
Or those we forgot
Prisoners born of our ignorance

When a generation looks back
Remembering us as condones born of blindness
Who murdered the human inside us?

Love, Fight, Serve.
So your silence won't be judged with your sins
That the lamb won't be cursed as the lion
When we walk on the road to eternity
Will our love have bled us empty?

Futile, Sinners, Oblivious.
Our last mark on this earth
When all is done.
If nothing is done.

A Look Behind

The men of earth mourn
Begging of lights dawn
The children of men sing
Singing their fathers lies

The years behind wore us down
Old demons haunt us now
Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq
Taunt of when peace did bow

Bankers ate their weight in gold
Vultures famished of gluttony
Made us despise elected kings

Monsters devoured ancient truth
Expressed truth as lie
That war makes peace with war
Or money's jewels born to adore 

Across the sea
The war of donkeys' rage
Men caught in piety
Fighting eternal wars
Yet chained to death they lay 

Still we believe
Every nation formed invincible
Our ideologies immortal
As anniversaries of chaos loom

Did you see the day
Immortal armies fell
Did you see the day
Came the angels of hell

Now we crave love to fix
To end our invention of death
But we've sold our love as sex
All wear a prostitutes' dress

Still You forget love is a man
With two holes in his hands
Who will redeem all things anew
By the peace of his land
