To what, you may ask yourself?
to the truth that haunts your dreams at night
the truth that all things come from.
the truth that deep down inside, we have a war brewing...
Angels vs. demons, light vs. dark, good vs. evil...
The great war that has been going on for centuries
We all are caught in the middle of this war,
oh, you don't believe me? Look inside yourself.
The emotions we have are a portrait of our inner self
Love, hate, anger, passion, envy, truth, honesty...
They all coincide with one another to produce a human creature.
We all have a dark side, we all have a light side
we all struggle with emotions in our lives
The confusing emotions that drives us
to the brink of insanity...
Some people can handle these feelings
others can not
Think of all the things in our society,
read the newspapers, watch the evening news
See the truth of the world we live in
Hate, violence, murder, rape, suicide, theft...
That's the reality that we grow up in,
and yet, we want to keep ourselves at bay
we want to pretend it's just a nightmare
a bad dream that we can't wake up from...
The truth is, it's all real
everyone we know has in one way been involved
in the corruption of the world...
We all have fallen from grace and tumbled into this hell...
Our flesh burns each day with the scorching heat
our tongues dry up from lack of water
but in this hell, we try to ingnore it, to hide it...
Why can't someone just admit it!!??!!
Why can't we all just stand up and take a stand
face the reality of this rock, and make a change?
Welcome to the truth of life,
Can you see it? [comments] => 5 [counter] => 235 [topic] => 13 [informant] => whiteleo1984 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 6 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Powerful write. I dont watch the news often anylonger because of these things. Its upsetting and depressing. Yes its time to make a stand if we all can do it somehow.

Wouldn't disagree with a word of this.We all see the truth of life but as a species we have not evolved to deliver the remedy.Unfortunately, there will be insufficent time for us to do so.Very enjoyable read,

huh i understand what you are saying here. we all live in this "hell" but the sun still shines, and the birds still sing, flowers grow and snow falls. there is still beauty all around us and there is still so much beauty in the human heart. and to take a stand it only takes one at first....
