There was a time when I thought that I'm going to have you like forever I spent a while till I realized that forever is just an illusion It's easy said than to be done Even if you love me strongly deeply inside yourself you know the truth that nothing last forever you may think that our love is enough to beat the word itself but the word itself can get us anywhere else reality is no heaven no paradise.

Forever is Just a Word
When they killed my mother it made me nervous I thought to myself, it was right: Of course she was crazy, and how she ate! And she died, after all, in her way, for the state. But I minded: how queer it was to stare At one of them not sitting there. When they drafted sister I said all night, "It's healthier there in the fields"; And I would think "now I'm helping to win the war," When the neighbors came in, as they did, with my meals. And I was, I was, but I was scared With only one of them sitting there When they took my cat for the Army Crops Of conservation and supply, I thought of him there in the cold with the mice And I cried, and I cried, and I wanted to die. They were there, and I saw them, and that is my life. Now there is nothing. I'm dead, and I want to die Randall Farrell (1914-1965)

The State By Randall Farrell
Have you ever thought of the life you are into Have you ever thought of the child you used to be All you needed was a toy, to bring the joy You had missed You see people die, you hear children cry Homeless people pray for the end of their day You used to say a heartfelt words to some people you have met When all they needed was a milk To feed the starving kids People are killed, people die, and children cry You never went to see the suffer they are in You only watch a broken TV screen with half a light You thought your own suffering was too much And that you had a hard time figuring out your hopeless life You don't need nobody to get you from the life you are into You have a shelter and a strength to build an empire for you and them But you never thought of the life they are in How come! When you already didn't think of yours What a shame A selfish with a shelter With no aim or maintain.
