(It's been a LONG time since I've written any poetry and after proof-reading this bad boy, I can say with NO EGO that is truly is one of my better pieces of work. Show love if you got it but more importantly, enjoy; they'll be plenty more to come!)
Led Astray
All that's left to do is pray
For the ones who have been led astray
For those who fell and lost their way
In the long nights and never-ending days
I mourn for those who still shed tears
The pain of loss, the wasted years
Betrayed by those who we reveer
And stricken down by our worst fear
We loathe the ones who've caused us pain
The scars have driven us insane
And so we take your name in vain
And then we turn away in shame
For those who try to bury sins
They fight war they will not win
Their demons feasting from within
They become vessels torn limb from limb
For those who haven't the strenght to fight
Afraid to make it through the night
The answer lies beyond their sight
Two wrongs will never make a right
And so we walk this path alone
For our mistakes we must atone
Our lives and misery are sewn
Together trekking the unknown
For we are blind now; such is fate
Although this truth may irritate
The sad part is, there's no escape
But do not let hope dissipate
For someday soon we'll find the peace
We need before we can decease
The key that unlocks this sweet release
Lies within; for wonders never cease...
