A Thousand Black Flags Fly Over Our Farewell
A thousand black flags fly over ahead
Looking down,
Staring hard
As silence is dead.
We fought underneath, two of a kind
Yelling
And Crying,
Hate tainting our minds.
A thousand black flags fly over our farewell;
Waiting and hating
The life we've lived in hell.
They stare and they watch with utmost despise,
They stare and they watch us ruin our lives.
A thousand black flags; they wisper and speak;
The mock
And they pity
How utterly weak
We are when we fight, we quarrel and kill;
How weak we are
When we are standing still.
A thousand black flags fly over our farewell;
Waiting and hating
The life we've lived in hell.
They stare and they watch with utmost despise,
They stare and they watch us ruin our lives.
A thousand black flag fly under the sky;
Quietly
Thinking
As our emotions do fly.
They dance in the wind, so graceful it seems;
And as we punch
And we kick
The flags hear our screams.
A thousand black flags fly over our farewell;
Waiting and hating
The life we've lived in hell.
They stare and they watch with utmost despise,
They stare and they watch us ruin our lives.
A thousand black flags fly over the streets;
Sleeping
And dreaming
In their massive fleets.
We lay down below, silent as night;
As the moon shines down:
It calms our fight.
Nothing can change what we've said and we've done,
But people
Are people;
We can never be one.
We live and we fight through our everyday hell
As a thousand black flags
Fly over our farewell.

"A thousand black flags fly over our farewell" conjures up one strong mental imagery~ :)

You especially do great poetry whenever using the very human themes.
