oops
|
She sat on the shore
Toes tug deep into the brown
And black of the mud
No, this isn't real anymore
She realized some time ago
And she cries
She knows that place is never coming back
Familiar faces
Fading, like the ripples from a sinking stone
When can I go home....
She waits for an angel of white
But all the debris
Blocks out any vantage point of light
For the virus of greed and hate
Seems to have infected everyone by now
Muffled guns and explosions
In the far too near distance
She had dreams, she had faith
But they lay incomplete
Inside her head
She keeps a vision
Of what she thought it would be
Trying not to incorporate all the misery
Right before her eyes
The dead, telling a tale
Far too bleak to understand
She was just a child
In need of someone's hand
But it retracted with time
And her mind
Was never meant to grow
Just to reap sorrow
To bathe in a hole
This hole
Where nothingness
Takes its toll
She struggles to stand
Horizon meeting the land
A fire breaks out somewhere new
Another person burning to death
She never knew
And the ashes disintegrate
Into an atmosphere
Turned to static fuzz
No, she never got to see
Peace, or the beauty of life
Just planes with bombs in flight
Striking the sea
Sleeping giant
Always constant
Its waves blue and alone
There is no one
No man to atone
For the evil
Things we have done
No mother no daughter or son
So tired,
She dives into cold water
Mistaking its touch
For some lost friend
Sinking
She hopes to never come afloat
This wasn't her future
This isn't what she wrote
God have mercy
She prays
Please be there
To meet me down below.
