Its presence brings fear and silence,
That combine to draw out tears.
A deep pain that won’t subside,
As it delves deeper into your soul and mind.
Leaving hearts filled with emptiness,
Tears that won’t dry.
Faces stained with hurt,
Distorted and unable to change,
We become incapable of shaking the pain away,
Familiar faces now ghosts of yesterday,
Baring offspring of depression, suffering and insanity;
Staining your soul with pain.
It’s the only thing that takes but won’t give

Death

This verse soundscape
is labelled dejected and angry.

Procrastinated
pockets
of
hope deferred
make the heart choke
in a vice-like
pressure cooker
tension filled
with
the cardiac solution called
LIFE

Think about it.


Tasting your own medicine
is
such a bitter pill to swallow.

They say
“Be the change that you want to see”
but
NO CHANGE
I see
on paths traveled
now
&  
before
me.

Does this mean
the change I want to see
is
‘no change’
a Spirit
personified
slowly
dying
yet
living
within you and me?


Think about it.


Tired of a dead lifes' heart attack?
then
SEE THROUGH
the change you want
to be.
On your journey
bitter pills do digest.
USING
the
MEMORY
of that
ill
taste
to heal
&
outlive
the sickness
prevalent in this
human
RACE
?



Think about it.


WHAT REALLY IS YOUR HURRY?

S L O W  D O W N.

Can't you can see ?
GRAVES'
great joy
is
to
blind & thieve
"your grace"
leaving you
with just enough energy
to
kick the bucket,
while robbing you of understanding
that these
sweet words
origin
from
YOU
to
ME
reflecting
what 20-20
would let you
really see...

You are Kings & Queens


Think about it.


We are all connected unilaterally.
Put plainly;
we agree to disagree,
in the midst of the fact that
there can be
no lasting freedom
until there is a weathered
wisdom
of
UNITY.

So(w),

If you see her
hold fast,
relinquish not,
D O N 'T   L E T  GO!
For
that's the point
when we truly become
LOST SOULS.

The essence of war is; there can be no lasting freedoms until there is a weathered unity, until then we continue to agree to disagree.

The

                         etch     their     own     mark,

           at                        the hands of those

                           who       have      the       

                                     ­                      courage

                   to turn its

                                           hourglass.

I googled the word entertain, realised my mistake,
made a decision to walk in wisdom and be kept safe,
refusing to entertain fear; choosing to entertain faith.


entertain - ɛntəˈteɪn/ verb:

1. provide (someone) with amusement or enjoyment.

2. Give attention or consideration to (an idea or feeling).

To: consider, give think about, contemplate, give thought to, bear in mind;

Antonym: REJECT!

I am told
Nun
is a picture of a humbled
gasping fish
who realises
he can only truly swim
in a sea of
His righteousness.
