I shall mourn on the day <br />that those who have scorned me <br />lead the blind to war <br />Like lambs they will follow; <br />They wont realize they're fighting <br />for the wrong side <br />Too late will they see their folly <br />and my tears shall not save them <br />By their own choice <br />they will be branded <br />And in their blindness they will <br />walk through a valley of darkness <br />yearning for a day that never comes <br />... <br />But maybe <br />they're not so much blind as naive <br />Maybe <br />all they ever needed to do <br />was open their eyes <br />... <br />Will you let me open your eyes <br />before it's too late<br /><br />Nick Jankowski<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-call-me-a-liar-because-you-re-afraid-you-re/
