Banned Poetry

[Tash]

Because I'm banned and I've got nothing better to do.

Poem #1

No man is an island; entire of itself,
Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main,
If a clod be washed away by the sea;
Any man's death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind.
My death has come, too soon I swear,
A chapter of my life ended, unreachable to me,
But I swear in our Gods name,
What left shall come again;
Because I am involved in mankind.


Poem #2 (Sonnet)

To only see grey bars printed on black,
To only have three small pleas, all in vain,
To never again, go home or go back,
Leaves a mark on your heart; a blood red stain,
To not know the crime that barred your life,
To not know what was your final mistake,
To lose so many memories, in one big strife,
Shatters your soul; makes your very spirit ache,
To be unable to see hard earned friends,
To be trapped under judgement, all alone,
To meet such an abrupt undeserved end,
Tears a hole, in your weeping broken bones,
The blow has been dealt, no longer a game
What once has been lost shall come once again.


Poem #3

The Hammer strikes,
Strikes once, strikes twice,
And the rock wall falls away.

A new wall’s built,
Renewed, Rebuilt,
That bars my humble way.

I sinned a sin,
A simple sin,
One that I don’t even know of.

Now I’m blind,
Unable to find,
Mine city of cravenly love.

Unable to go,
To thy sacred cove,
To find my trusted comrades.

Because I breached,
With freedom of speech,
The laws imposed in thine lands.

My freedom denied,
How to survive,
This cage without a key,

One thing’s for sure,
I can’t endure,
Without my friends beside me.



Poem #4

You warn me,
And you warn me,
But I still don’t understand
What did I do wrong?
Mods,
Why did I get banned?

You say that,
I broke the rules,
But I still don’t understand
What rules have I broken?
Mods,
Why did I get banned?

You tell me,
I deserve this,
But I still don’t understand
I deserve to have my life shattered?
Mods,
To be unfairly banned?

You think that,
You are right,
But I still don’t understand
Why abuse your power?
Mods,
We deserve a second chance.

You need to,
Reconsider,
You need to understand,
We are people too,
Mods,
We deserve a second chance.

Please open,
Your eyes wider,
And try to understand,
We, have feelings too,
Mods,
We deserve a second chance.
