A Clash of Convictions
Anthology ; Ephemeral Whispers
Poem#2 “A clash of convictions”
Do you love Chaos?
“Yes I am a man”
What is peace to a man?
"To some victory, to some pain"
When they win the war within
That is peace them
For some it resides in women
But is that really peace?
A maiden may break your heart
A worthy cause will not
Dwelling amenity can never be
But dying a worthy death is peace
A breeze on a summer eve is peace?
Or wealth, food, sons and land?
But only a worthy war and death.
May our souls rest in peace!

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
