Heart resents this feeling;
Doesn’t want to give in.
Been gone so long now;
Could never return to old ways.
Been lost
Been cold
Been numb……
A fallen angel with burned wings,
Sits alone with tears that sting.
Children live harsh lives;
They cry
They hide
Then they die.
The earth puts on a bright face,
Just to hide the dark truth.
A life of pain that some seem
To forget and ignore.
Smile at what’s happy,
And never live like before.
Sun shines
Sun blinds
Sun burns….
One man’s happiness is
Another man’s failure.
In this bitter transduction
That spreads on and on…..
Hurts my soul,
And I’m left confused.
Can’t give in to these ways;
Must fight,
Must live,
Must learn.
Digress from illusion
And see more than black and white.
Configure what was lost
So that it can be found.
