STILL I CRY FOR YOU ( By AXE )

ONE TROUBLED HEAD SPEAKS
ONE HUMBLE HEART LISTENS
ONE MAN IS REPREMANDED FOR HIS HONESTY
ONE SOUL BECOMES AWAKENED
WHILST THE OTHER IDLY SLEEPS
AND ONE DAY IS LOST IN HOURS OF MEDIOCRITY

BUT STILL I CRY FOR YOU
AND STILL I WOULD DIE FOR YOU

IN THE RESURRECTED GARDEN
ONLY GOOD SEEDS GROW
BUT THE WEIGHT OF EXPECTATION IS NOT EASILY IGNORED
AS THE HUNGER PANGS CRY OUT LIKE LITTLE CHILDREN LOST
WHILST THE CROPS ARE CULTIVATED
BY THE MAN WHO WEILDS THE SWORD

BUT STILL I CRY FOR YOU
AND STILL I WOULD DIE FOR YOU

IN A BED OF BROKEN PROMISES
THE INSOMNIAC STILL DREAMS
UTOPIAN ILLUSIONS TO SATISFY HIS MIND
AS HE CLINGS ON TO ALL EMPTY HOPE
HIS DESPERATION SEEMS
TO BE THE ONLY SOLACE HIS IGNORANCE CAN FIND

BUT STILL I CRY FOR YOU
AND STILL I WOULD DIE FOR YOU

Behind The Poem: 
This poem was inspired by my brother's obsession for materialism and how I pray every day for his awekening.

I wish we could all suffer

I wish we could all suffer from nirvanic insomnia. That sentence was inspired by you.
