Winds blow

[Helikaon]

Time stands still
One moment to the next
Light is close, burning bright
or is it hell just one step to the right

I see the corruption through dead eyes
times arnt changing yet it still just words
yet words can still have my soul
pulling on its strings with driven finality

Blood courses through these veins
but others see it as if it were tar
play there games of hope
when words are lost in the sudden reality

The cruelty in this world isnt changing
it just adapts to the times
there is no honest man
for man was never honest

Cut deep with a driven cause
or is it cause they are driven to cut deep
Pain isnt changing
causes arnt dying

Time never stood still for the "honest man"
only blew the winds of hope in his face
to give this man his life, a life such as it is to
continue to go on living in this world of corruption

It's an intense poem,Ice and a good one at that.

Time never stood still for the "honest man"
only blew the winds of hope in his face
to give this man his life, a life such as it is to
continue to go on living in this world of corruption

This stanza is the one that gets to me because it sums everything up nicely.
