I See the World


My heart hurts for reasons I can't explain.

I see the world like no one sees it 

And it all seems strange that the earth is exploding with rage, hate, and pain, 

yet the loudest seek themselves. 

The powerful are out for selfish gains and I dream dreams of the past with its shame 

and haunts. 

Jaunts to the dangerous with aims of operating on the edge of the Morning Star's domain. 

Heroic atrocities and calculated obliteration. 

Planning plans to maim and break those we saw as wicked. Or were told to by the game and the images, feeds, and comms. 

The screaming mothers with bloody seed and it came to us or them. 

I see the world as no one sees it. 

I see it in shame.

Woke With Rage

I woke with rage beyond my mind It's tempting, I find. Intensifies with time I whisper to myself, "I hate this place..." God Dammit, I hate this place and the face That stares back at me in the dreaded glass. I don't even know what "this place" means. Whatever reality shattered my dreams Or took my drive, gumption and nerve. And I can't help but think that I deserve Whatever fate this was destined to be. "Breathe," I say. I can get past this. Whatever this is can be forgotten in time, The thought is tempting, I find. 

Gratitude

I hear my kids laugh and I think of their past when they first said "dad" and all the times they were sad and, my God, I swell with desire to see them grow old. I hear the stories told from those before me and thank God they were bold enough to help me create the life that I hold. I, simply, see the next sunrise and thank God I'm alive and can, maybe, strive for this idea of acceptance to his eyes. I rejoice in each day created by the Lord, I lived to see it rise. Gratitude will keep my thoughts on a high rise and my hope will be my guide

Path

The path that I travel was revealed in the dark. The spark of a dream set my goal, set apart From all the roads I've previously taken.   Shaken and stirred by the world, struck abrasive. And now I face him in the dim, dim light And I fight him with all mustered might And realize tonight that he and I are one. His eyes see the sun as mine, can't run Because his heart is mine that beats. He's me and I'm him.  Take control and grit our teeth. Face the demons of his creation that feast  On his pride and release destructive talk. Ive walked as him and broke in the duration. Now I face him. And I will win.
