[bodytext] => Through this water and earth we grow Feeding from its filth, sickness consumed Through roots our fates entwined And in our veins runs its cure In this city of pain, where sound echoes Howls madness, murder roams Those who fear flock, eyes closed And the hunter always gets its toll As the clouds darken, shadows grow Let me hold your hand, keep it warm Because they are cruel and I know And forever pain is their goal So let me touch your lips with mine And show you what was left of love In this sadness we are all bound To love, through our hearts and minds Now, together we stand and wait As the light of the day goes out Comes in the winter with its breath cold And beats down the rain and snow With the wind, our children torn and blown We weep at nigh, naked and forlorn Yet no fear touches us for we are strong Love is guiding us and keeps us close [comments] => 1 [counter] => 171 [topic] => 2 [informant] => net [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
