The pledge that was made to this young man
filled him with a passion
thinking he would be fighting for his beliefs
against the true enemy
this was how it was sold to this genuine being
but from himself was fleeing!
Like so many had been drawn to follow religion
but as is too often the case
words twisted and created making like a calling
brought together as a family
the promise of a better way of life in unity
in one large community!
Once drawn in realised life meant much more
it was a hollow dream
realising compassion and love was not the aim
unable to escape the horrors
death came far to soon the allusion shattered
his body torn and battered!
The relatives shocked with no remains to mourn
their faith apart torn!
The Foureyed Poet.
