Go Further

Life for the Common Folk

By Shareese AouadPublished 8 months ago 1 min read
Beyond the Brick Wall

Go Further

Go further than you think you can

Delve deeper than you dared to dive

Find riches untold

In the under chambers of your heart

I’ll tell you summaries of lives well spent in

Agony

The hurting of the deep, richness of life lived hard and raw

With emotion that runs over

And still threatens to run us over

Noble lives seem to have escaped us all

…well at least most of us

We bare the brunt of the brutality of life

Us common folk

Yet we can still laugh, ah, ha in the midst of the insanity that threatens

To swallow us whole

Someone yells, go further

‘til there’s no where left to go

And even a brick wall can’t stop ya

Who’d have thought that?
