Price of Heaven

by LadyPearl   Mar 28, 2007


Give me strength to Face to Truth
The face of Wrath shall come
Forgive me for what lies I may say
The sinful words of today

I've lost my hope to bleed for you
I've lost the heart to fight and watch
As children drown in Holy blood
And tears of God gather in a flood

Failing to see how Heaven is cruel
How pain is the way to life
I fail to see the wars in your name
Cold bloodshed is nothing but shame

Is this the price I pay for Heaven
Against my heart and your written words
To swim and bask in bloody wins
Yet these wars seem never the sins

Isn't love for you enough for me
And love for others truly light
Must I bow to every "In Gods name"
Though most are of falsified claims?

Give me the strength to question truth
Why sins make sins seem little less
When Holy the word dances around
Or is this by something we are all bound

    I like the poem. The subject of the poem was interesting. It was slightly confusing to me, but still interesting. There were some minor errors in typing but only one in the first stanza that really significantly affect the overall read of the poem. I thought the flow was decent, but the rhyming could have been a little better. Some of the rhymes didn't quit click from one line to the next.

    Overall I thought the poem was good. 5/5

    I like this Poem. You had a prayer in the first stanza.
    Give me strength to face the truth,

    Needless Death has always been pondered by men and woman. Understanding why is a life long search.

    The rhyme scheme was odd and different so although i liked it i never really got used to it. Umm...i thought this poem was really nice...you used the powerful words that shaped the poem in the right direction.

    "Failing to see how Heaven is cruel
    How pain is the way to life
    I fail to see the wars in your name
    Cold bloodshed is nothing but shame"

    that was my favourite stanza, i felt such truth and relization in it..=]

    ...as i said, i liked the poem...so 5/5
