The Burning Roads

The Burning Roads

Don't try

to dry

your tears

today

Just show your

pain

under the

rain

Don't hold them

today

No one will see them 

today

It will be like a flower 

in spring

like a new spouse

with a ring

you don't have 

to stay

you don't have 

to pray!

give your Lord

a rest!

and fight for

yourself!

**************************

your tears when

they fall

hurt more than

a ball

let them fall

kill them all

let speak, for once,

your free soul

**************************

I don't think

that sun can save you

when darkness 

is living inside you

**************************

You can't survive

in a world so narrow 

It's daily killing you

your never-ending sorrow

**************************

Furious you are

Now explode 

Blow, blow

Blow your sadness 

and go, draw

Draw an expression

on a smileless face...

***************************

Will they feel?

As ice under sun's heat?

Will they feel?

Your wounds which never heal?

***************************

Behind the careless eyes 

they hide one million tears 

and like when the tide does rise

Life will be so deep

Break the meaningless lines

Prove there are no signs

you will die when you want to

It's a path that you must walk through

*******************************

You can end the mental game

After two decades,

you still the same!

Beat your nothingness

with a new mind size

You can be more than what you are

you can see more, travel too far

*******************************

Stop war time

Stop the crime 

Don't walk with hatred

the burning roads

Red blood will always be red

No matter what they did

No matter what they said

********************************

There is no fill

to fire's hunger

look at the blood

falling on cinder

It's like that ruins

are feeding its anger

Will they now see?

Will they now wonder?
