THE RAPE OF A SOUL

THE RAPE OF A SOUL
Conquest of truth has an ancient beginning,
Slowly consumed by the changing times
With the passing times, the truth loses its vigor,
Slowly disfigured by titanium lies
The lies lay scattered on the dust of an embroidered ego,
Camouflaging the facts that were always there
When we find humanity arguing with the truth,
We have to agree to the rape of a soul.

Trying to live through building a bridge,
A hug and a smile lead the soulful songs
Between the truth and the lies, there lies a disguise
Slowly emerging with its well of reverence
Disjointed beliefs, married with ease,
Gently conceives an ignorant bliss.
Ignorance persist through arrogant zeal,
Each day reliving the rape of a soul.

Faking beliefs, never finding a way,
Bearing a faith that is as strong as dust.
Questions arise to question this hope,
Finding its answers in a confused race,
A race of untruths brings the glare on a face,
Finding peddlers of lies with an innocent gaze,
Only if the truth would be the truth,
Maybe we would be free from the rape of a soul.

Some say belief is a garment of faith,
A garment that everybody wears today;
None is naked, not all are in the same garment,
Some are covered in their own.
Overzealous remorse sweeps an arrogant space,
Imposing its garment on an unfamiliar face.
Loosing passage to this dome of slavery;
Conceding the truth to the pride of riches,
Slowly immersed to the rape of a soul.

Finding relief in a comfort of truth,
Learning to trust its gentle ways.
Slowly convinced by the power of friendship,
The truth finds a soldier of truth,
Still in the world are craftsmen of lies,
Who decorate the truth with their nefarious venom!
Men playing God by the power of their lips,
Slaying men by daring God;
Men are not afraid to intrude on God’s law,
Willing it to suit their taste.
The worthy man finds himself torn apart,
Feeling oppressed by the craftsmen of lies,
When you follow anything except the truth;

That is when you rape the soul.
