My great crusade-by Jared Ken C. Perez

I do not see, what is beyond me…
Does the sky deceive me?
The earth that my sole rests upon
Warm yet untrue.

Oh my Jerusalem,
I sought for you…
Your promised redemption,
My great crusade.

So I thought,
Cleansed you from infidels
And demons thriving
Within your walls…

And you promised heaven.
Now all is done…
Where is my paradise?
For all I see are ruins
Of your past…

Have I wronged?
Thinking I saved you,
From the demons that beheld your heart…
Love my enemies, good and true.
But hurt me betray me,
Please tell me…

Are you my Jerusalem,
Or my captor?
