In a land of no answers

Aa Harvey

In a land of no answers

 

 

In a land of no answers, I’m crying alone.

In a world with no feelings, I’m feeling so lost.

I crave for love, or something to make me feel less hollow;

But I have become a ghost of what I once was.

 

 

I went up to Heaven to face my God,

But he wasn’t answering so I fell down to Earth.

I listened closely and searched in the fog,

But I was lost in love, so I couldn’t get what I deserved.

 

 

Still I search for the answers, to a question I cannot ask;

For I don’t know what it is, that I want to find in the dark.

I used to think, I had all I needed at last;

But it all turned to nothing and now I am lost.

 

 

I can’t tell you how I felt, because I just don’t remember,

But I must have felt something, to have felt the loss.

As another year passes by, I’m feeling low in December.

I would give anything to remember, no matter what the cost.

    Interesting AA - getting lost because we don't know the questions - never mind the answers! Good one.

      "Love is the answer and you know that for sure.
      Love is a flower, you got to let it; you gotta let it grow...

      Yes is the answer and you know that for sure...

      Keep on playing those mind games forever.
      Raising the spirit,
      Of peace and love..."

      John Lennon - Mind Games

      The question is: how do I find love? The answer is unknown.

      This is a very deep and heavy write. I like it. Searching for answers to unknown questions.

        "Let me tell you a little story 'bout how I was raised.
        Every day work. Every day pray.
        God, family, friends, yeah everybody's friends.
        A winner never quits, and a quitter never wins.

        ...A jealous man is weak so think before you speak.
        If you love 'em let 'em know, if you hate let it go...

        So listen up y'all 'cause this is how I feel...

        I won't back up. I don't back down.
        I've been raised up, to stand my ground.
        Take my job, but not my guns.
        Tax my check 'til I ain't got none.
        Except for the good Lord up above.
        I answer to no one...

        The truth is the light, sometimes you gotta fight.
        Good beats bad. Right beats wrong.
        I'm a bar room preacher and this is my song...

        This is what I say...

        I won't back up. I don't back down.
        I've been raised up to stand my ground.
        Take my job, but not my guns.
        Tax my check till I ain't got none.
        Except for the good Lord up above,
        I answer to no one.

        Give me my right to vote,
        My right to tote, the weapon of my choice,
        Don't censor my voice.
        Hate me if you want, or love me if you can.
        If the truth is what you want then you found your man.
        I ain't backin' down,
        I ain't backin' up.
        If you think like I think, then crank it on up!

        I won't back up.
        I don't back down.
        I've been raised up to stand my ground...

        Except for the good Lord up above,
        I answer to no one."

        I hope this song is deep and heavy enough for you. Thanx for reading my poem.

        • Christina8

          That was awesome!

          • Aa Harvey

            Lol. I just found that song when looking for the right song to reply to your comment and it's now my favourite song at the moment.
