Dark Dreams

Song for the Children of Gaza

Dark Dreams-Marc Marlon Villaflor

I

Dark lonely nights all are cold 
stillness of pictures haunting 
Blood scattered on the smoky pavement
Dried eyes turned into a frozen rain

II

Until when, we keep on trying
We lost everything ,

Lifeless angels lying on the street 

Brave heart still fighting to take away this pain 

Chorus

The new dawn comes with blurry vision 
While I'm holding our promise
Walking on the unfamiliar space 
My soul keep pushing
Trying to escape to the concept hell they have made

III

The lust of killing keeps me wondering 
Are we trapped in this never ending game?
Or we perish to become a martyr of somebody's dream 
Now the serine stops, I am facing my inevitable bent

A song with a gripping and indepth message about the social cycles of life itself. Great work Mark. A thought-provoking write. :)

[Leslie Philibert]

Indeed a fine poem, but I will steer clear of the political background !

[DIVYA]

This is very touching and poignant. You have such depth and vision. Glad to see you back on WC Marc.

[Rita L. Sev]

There is such a depth of sadness here, Marc. This is poignantly written.

[Rivaxorus]

I love all the poems I read on here. Not many people reply to my stories and poems seem to get the most attention but that's probably because they hold a lot of passion in them. This was a very nice read, pen on.
