Because He Died


" Contradicting 

Try predicting 

Always working

Know your earning 

But never learning

All are hurting

But the tables are turning

Some are yearning

For the fire burning 

So deep inside

Where innocence cried

Because hope had died

But still you lied

To yourself and I

Oh how long you tried

To hold the tide

Of the feelings inside

That you failed to hide 

Till our hopes collide

And the pain subsides

So finally decide

That the sins inside

And the sin worldwide

Will never decide

Us from his side

Because for us he died."

Just your typical geek. If you care to look deeper though...You can see the layers I have created. The worlds I call my own live in my imagination. Creating riddles and poems and lives and characters to become and get lost in. No one knows me, or at least the me behind the blinds. PLEASE COMMENT instagram=tamingofseawolves
