You’re living in a world where your dreams don’t come true,
and everything you do and say is held against you.
No matter how hard you scream there’s no escaping now,
for you’ve entered this world and there’s only one way out.
So scream all you like to the billion deafened ears
nobody turns their eyes as you confess your deepest fears.
Your fears of a new tomorrow and the never ending pain
will become an untold secret and a secret they’ll remain.
Everybody has become zombies in a world that has turned black
never sleeping, ever wandering and never once looking back.
People turned their backs on faith, on beliefs and on mankind
they’ve forgotten how things used to be and left it all behind
So scream all you like to the billion deafened ears
nobody turns their eyes as you confess your deepest fears.
You will live this life forever for there’s no escaping now
since you’ve entered this world there’s been only one way out
Hold the dagger steady as you dig, deep in numbing flesh
your cloudy eyes show no emotion, take your last full breath.
As you release your last breath of life you take the first of another
and find yourself in loving arms, held close now by your mother
And you scream all you can to the billion deafened ears
but nobody turns their eyes as you confess your deepest fears
You will live this life forever for there’s no escaping now
you keep entering this world to find there’s no way out.
This poem took my breath away and leaves me speechless. It is a powerful write.
