Song of Inspiration
Hands held high at the start of the end
 We'll be together then, my friends
 
 Believe in me because I know we can take it
 Take the world into out hands, if only just for a moment
 We'll strike the chords of chaos to heal their broken hearts
 And chip away the silence to mend their bleeding souls
 
 Believe in me because I know we can make it
 Make them all understand, if only just for a moment
 Our words will break the barrier of things said and left unsaid
 But most of all, they'll finally see, they'll finally understand
 
 Believe in me because I know we can take it
 To take the step to lead us there, if only just for a moment
 Each note will kill the pain of things said, said untrue
 The door to truth will be unhinged, the lies will be forgotten
 
 Believe in me because I know we can make it
 Make this world a better place, if only just for a moment
 Maybe one day this world will be full of love and hope
 Perhaps then too we'll all agree, agree to disagree
 
 Believe in me because I know we can take it
 Take the world into our hands, if only just for a moment
 I'll keep playing my six-string till the day we all find peace
 But until that day, that shining day, our song will never end
 
 Hands held high at the start of the end
 We'll be together then my friends

I liked your poem :)
what I liked: how the pictures somehow fit with the poem, how the beginning and the end are the same, i could tell it was heartfelt, you rhymed occasionally but didn't feel contained by it, you used a healthy dose of repitition
constructive criticism: second line second stanza-is "out" supposed to be "our?" , sometimes the addition of "if only just for a moment" messes up the flow/rhythm/consistency-i like that line, but maybe you could change other parts around so that the flow could still be constant
Great job with your poem!
Kudos.

You say you don't remember,<br /> But I will never forget
Yeah there was a typo in the second stanza, but that happens sometimes. I felt that putting "if only for a moment" in there made my readers understand what I was trying to get them to understand. Thanks for the comment!
