40 Days & 40 Nights

HomePoetry40 Days & 40 Nights

No rain in the desert
Our emotions ran dry
Lifeless reflections
Refracting in our eyes

Their people are dying
And we don’t care
Missiles are launched
Bombs bursting in air

Casualties of children
And innocent civilians
We’ve become evil
International villians

We’re paying the price
We’re forced to pay
The cost to get by
Our morals betrayed

We wetted our tongues
To quench our thirst
Our entire life is
Entitlement rehearsed

Black gold consumed by
The elites are partying
But we’re still struggling
And barely surviving

This moment realizes
The need to believe
Good and evil at war
The plagues deceived

The bottom of the sea
The battle of the beast
Salvation is coming
Rising from the east

Deadly clouds of greed
Killing the deceased
A bittersweet taste
Of nuclear disease

Choking on dust
We can barely breathe
The illusion is confusing
Politically conceived

Idolizing the golden calf
We fell for the lie
Tears now rain down
Falling from his eye

40 days and 40 nights
The tears have flooded
Rising waters will drown 
Our sins cold blooded
