He Didn't Know

He doesn't know what he's doing
He doesn't know who he's hurting
He just keeps on walking towards the door

He was raised this way you can't blame him
His father raised him this way
This is what he believes is right

His chest hurts, its constricted
Barely breatheable, but he proceeds to enter
The coffee shop is awful full this morning

He takes a seat by the window
He gazes down the street at his father
His father smiles and nods very gently

He closes his eyes flooding with anguish
Not of those around him is he hurt by
He doesn't know if this is right anymore

He presses a button
Noone screams in the place
There is no time to scream

His father gazes pleased by the light of the fire
His son has accomplished what he was raised to do
This is a moment for the family

But as the boy's soul rises
He doesn't know where he's going
The rest are headed somewhere else

He goes down and sees a devil
Why is he here? He did Allah's bidding!
He did what Father told him to do!

But he is here forever now
Why didn't his father tell him?
He simply didn't know



my first poem....ehh

As the fire and lightening rain on the desolete land
Life slowly drains away like hourglass sands
The world turns bodys burn innocent blood covers thier weopons
Like a jigsaw puzzle of exisitence the people split into sections
Fire rages armys are taken and unleashed on the already oppressed
Until the oppressed grab thier swords and raise them to thier enemys necks
Like teardrops of dragons of legend the blood slowly ignites
Woman cry as thier men die and more are sent off into the fight
The sea bubble in frustration trying to drown the hatred in its frothy waves
A dark hoode figure sharpens his sickle as he stands over the graves
The oppressed are called cowards yet only seek what is taken from them
And only want respect for what they beleive is sacred to them
Thunder crashes but what falls is not rain nor is light blocked from the sky
Until the burning and screams exahaust of machines
and dark smokes billow up and bring dark to the eyes
How do you stop a man so willing to die?
Who in nightmares hears crys of those no longer alive
How do you say wars not the answer?
when the cancer of death has eaten his heart
How do you show him light?
after a life s long in the dark
The rubble crumbles and exahaustion and struggle weigh on the land
Confusion sets and questions of WHY? formulate inside the mind of man
Cowardly acts return cowardly acts the cycle continues .......war remains
Poloticians fight with verbs words of hidden insuendos .....its all a game
Its hard to understand how id feel as a man if the roles was reversed
........maybe id be the one with a bomb strapped to my shirt

shit was dope good battle

i picked empire cuz he went into a lot more detail with his words, socrates used good words but it was kind of straight to the point it didnt have as much detail as empires, it was very poetic and deep..good imagery, no hate to both empire got this tho

good luck peace

Empire: i felt like you stayed more on the poerty topic... also yours had very good flow which made ya poem goodthe structre was kinda messed but it didnt really matter i liked how you made the poem... real good.... and you improved on poerty
SOc: to tell ya the truth...that was kinda weak....didnt really stay much on the poerty topic and lacked allot of basics of poerty...... sorry to say but empire really took the win hands down....

Don't say rhyming.
Poetry can sometimes be much more poetic without rhyming.
But ehh, it's a poetry battle so I ain't trippin.
