 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

geishacountrypoetpoetry759
I cannot bare the slaughter
I cannot bare this pain
So much needless violence
Where blood now falls like rain.

Lives that are now ruined
Before they had begun
Laid to rest in anger
Beneath the burning sun.

Everyone is shouting
But no one wants to hear
All the children crying
Crying out in fear.

All claim to be the saviour
But they are only saving face
While history will tell the truth
again man fell from grace.
