Inner echoes

-

 

These inner echoes 
They are the voices of an empty soul
Every scream and bellow
None of them are in control.

Empty soul with a heavy heart
Voices dying as your friends depart
Nerves of steel and a heart of gold
Makes a man complete, you were told.

The only people who could understand
Are the ones people consider damned
No friend to confide in 
Departed are all the kin.

These inner echoes, reverberate through your empty soul
They never make it out of the darkness
They hide in behind your inner thoughts 
They come into the light when you are made whole.

The Cherokee War

  The Cherokee War. We got ready for the great battle,  With our every step we made the chariots rattle.  As soon as we heard the bugle,  We barged into the jungle.  We were fighting a clan of tribals,  Who had just finished their ritual.  Our general told us that ‘It was black magic.  And that the outcome of it would be tragic.’ We broke down the bamboo wall,  We intended to destroy it all.  But my comrade didn’t think so,  He hated to see the blood flow.  He withdrew from the fight,  While we ravaged the village with all our might.  I thought of my wife and kid,  Thinking of them a cruel thing I did.  I accidentally slashed a boy,  Who I thought was a decoy.  Then I thought of my own son,  How I used to treat him with a bun.  Even he must’ve had a dad,  Who taught him what is good and what is bad. I threw away the spear,  To protect someone’...
