This life chaotic
Surviving hell to grasp at heaven

This life chaotic
hypnotic
energy rushes
gushes all around me.
A sea of endless particles of pain
I look for the sunshine within the rain
the rainbows light
all fight leaves me
but I won’t give into its spite
the hate breathes
makes you believe
In humanities downfall
It’s a tall order
living this life in the borders of strife
where there’s no passport to any heaven
or any country in that region
the engine.
The cogs of the machine
have us enslaved
even Lucifer when he stood up to God
was thrown down and fell
into Hell.
This life is pernicious cruel and harsh
most kindness is given by hard graft
and the silence is sometimes the only thing
that makes us less daft
for in speaking harsh words are sprayed
like bullets across the page
or in our ears
giving us fear and tears
that scar our sanity
in this reality
where we study someone’s psyche
but not its creator the hater who crafted their malice and spite
and if we don’t realise that they in turn were also formed from people who didn’t always give a fuck
and told them their so called inner truth
Just to toughen them up,
and yet they didn’t water them with love
or feed them with grace
they deliberately chastised their minds
with words that were unkind
just to make them their clones
the worker unquestioning drones
You shouldn’t base your life
on the ideals and ideas
of people who gave way to fears
and insecurities
give your life to making yourself you.
A loving kind person a shining beacon a colourful hue.

Boom. This one hits solidly. Excellent ideas. Are you still writing Daniel? Seems many haven’t for a while, including myself. Only reading pieces a bit more again this week.
