John Griffiths Poems

If Man could learn the lesson, from mistakes he made before.
There would never be a reason, to start another war.

It could be any country, where the bullets fly around.
...

I can see your light is fading,
It will soon be time to go.
So let yourself be taken,
To where you have to go.
...

I tell you while your sleeping,
That we are not apart,
As I see the sadness in your face,
And the sorrow in your heart.
...

The light that shines so brightly
From deep within my soul,
Will one day need to move on,
To unite; and then be whole.
...

Sitting in my quiet room,
Uncertain and afraid.
My friends have all departed,
To a new home they have made.
...

The moon may be the driver
That controls the moving tide,
But when the wind takes over,
It awakes the force inside.
...

Who could have helped this child,
When his body ached with pain.
While the mother kept abusing,
Time and time again.
...

Freedom lies before me,
At the end of every day.
When I leave my body sleeping,
As I travel on my way.
...

My soul decides what obstacles
That I alone must face,
By giving me a lifetime,
To work at my own pace.
...

Why can’t folks be honest?
Why do they have to lie?
By giving different reasons,
To why we have to die.
...
