Why is it still dawn?
A puzzling introspection
It's an understatement to call it the naked truth
Whereas it nakens inferior parts of us that have been scorched by the naked truth.
I'm entitled to the gratitude of these thoughts
They help keep me entertained
While pain is the most forced about Entertainment of ages that our hearts keep being glued too.
Why do I try to run away from something that knows my end to finish?
I'm troubled by the past that keeps on predicting my future.
Having a good heart only led me astray
But - why is it still Dawn?
If I've got guardian angels watching over me
Bottled up emotions turned to ashes
Meant to be thrown away into the ocean.
Trying to revive the energy of my living being
I'm stuck between knowing our failures and rewriting better explanations for old mistakes.
The explicit bandage exposing our wounds has us feeling dead while we're told to - Breath.
If hell really exists then going to heaven would be my greatest sin
I'm not fond around people that try to justify the good things one can achieve if they follow the - Word.
The word is what you make of it
And I've not only lost hope but the real definition seems to have lost it's meaning.
But here is another word with a crucified meaning - Why Is It Still Dawn?

I loved the middle part of this prose. Once you say I’m troubled by the past that keeps on predicting my future, it’s gold! Then the end stalls again - for me.
This was awesome. As I read it, I kept thinking it was lyrics to a song.
