9/11

by Brix Ambray   Sep 11, 2011


They want oasis but they're building desert places in their minds.
Hunger strikes the metropolis, beggars ask for alms
Anger hardens the heart, to forgive is impossible,
A wiser mind and healthy soul, eternity is our goal.

A song goes "how many roads must a man walked down..
Before you can call him a man.?"
Is it by using high caliber guns or powerful bombs?
Or is it by killing innocent fellowmen?

It's not enough to break the head or break the legs,
What we need is to destroy the spider's web
Love and educate children is what we can do best,
Save them before they become delinquent,freaks and terrorists.

In a world that care less, we should care a little more,
Freedom itself is really worth fighting for
There is always a perfect time for love and war...
I am a peace loving citizen, I WANT CHANGE NOW.

*this poem is dedicated to all the victims of 9/11 bombing.

    Brix, what a beautiful yet raw piece.

    We all need peace I think as these kinds of things are happening all over the world and too often.

    In a world that care less, we should care a little more,
    Freedom itself is really worth fighting for
    ^^
    Very powerful and true.
