chriswriteswords - Hello Poetry

I studied much science, then shifted to art That presented theater to me I shifted to history, why do we fight? No effects are without cause What is the source of war? How does humanity have religion? Where is the basis of our decisions? Our complications, observations, & nations? I look to the sky. It is always beautiful. It is undeniable. I know people like facts. I love them. Logic entangled with emotion.. We walk through risk's rosy brambles.. We often end up in shambles.. Survival.. It became luck, morality, and intelligence.. You call it common sense.. It is ironic how uncommon it has become We laugh and smile but.. Too many live numb.. Feeling when we're young, fading with time Into our beloved, imagined normality.. You call it typical life.. I call it insanity.. Simply because evidence proves it to be.. Don't be mad at me I'm not mad at you.. I just can't understand.. Why you wouldn't want to understand.. We say science helps humanity.. So is it confirmation bias? Where does our fear come from? You want peace but help to end it.. We're only different because we lied.. To mirrors.. Then judged others.. Our money as a glue for a fatal game of fate.. It is not my place to judge you You are you and I am always only me.. You say you want equality We say we love democracy.. Why then does Earth.. A pale blue dot.. Help itself to its own death? The truth is simple It is simple because it is facts and logic It is also never perfectly obtainable Call it Heaven or the universe.. Either way.. Mysteries are infinite.. Nature is a woman of secrets Time is a man of faith and honor We really would benefit from listening.. To our parents.. To our God or no God.. Our Gods and Goddesses or their absence.. To our imaginative possibilities.. I will never hate humanity I will never judge you But.. I will call you out when you act crazy When you nurture insanity.. We are human but not very humane That is the reality I only will ask you one question.. I want to breach into your secrets.. I want to define your theaters of war.. I want to find conflict's source.. The truth is often scary It will still set its seekers free.. If we are more than few.. It can do that.. More and more quickly.. What we're doing never worked Survival and peace calls for something new.. I think of pure truth.. How it can be scary and still save lives.. So.. here is my question to humanity.. Why Are You Afraid?

Truth is a Rose (Why Are You Afraid)

I studied much science, then shifted to art That presented theater to me I shifted to history, why do we fight? No effects are without cause What is the source of war? How does humanity have religion? Where is the basis of our decisions? Our complications, observations, & nations? I look to the sky. It is always beautiful. It is undeniable. I know people like facts. I love them. Logic entangled with emotion.. We walk through risk's rosy brambles.. We often end up in shambles.. Survival.. It became luck, morality, and intelligence.. You call it common sense.. It is ironic how uncommon it has become We laugh and smile but.. Too many live numb.. Feeling when we're young, fading with time Into our beloved, imagined normality..

We are solutions and sources.. Much like a strange sunlight.. We're odd with so many symptoms.. We may be falling apart.. We may feel powerless.. We are not.. We are who we are.. If we breathe, compassion is still immortal.. Only way to see truth is to not be part of it All a lie needs to be real is acceptance Our world is falling apart. Your money? Its a lie that is killing us We drown in economy, in overconsumption You never take a big enough step back You let history be an eternal truth You never question validity.. Open up a history book Our main problem is.. You actually do question validity.. But only do so in unified global dysfunction.. Without ever even noticing it.. Wars still exist Conflict still persists People seek to protect their family Never knowing they contribute to crime As a result.. I even lost mine.. Humanity is simple but.. Money creates our complications.. Humanity is killing itself Just look out your window.. Or turn on a TV.. We're trying to survive the chaos we built.. Chaos is Hell yeah but.. It is not to blame.. Why do you focus only on its symptoms? Trace the sources of negativity backwards.. Why do you bask in such a Strange Sunlight..? Some rays real with some rays fake.. Your demeanor became a mask I'm sorry but its just simply true Next time you shed a tear.. Its directly due to an entire humanity in fear The world is truly falling apart.. You never investigated the right question This isn't an outcome of pure possibility Because we slowly built it into a certainty We never even knew.. There is no seeing now.. not anymore.. We may still be able to change it but.. Far too many only need to perceive a crime To swiftly judge it.. Remember.. Symptoms and Source Solve one.. the other will dissappear.. Now humanity is almost out of time.. I want to survive and I want to be happy.. But.. this chaos is a symptom.. Its source seems to remain unnoticed.. Or ignored due to being truly unpleasant.. Don't hate the messenger.. You should have expected this.. I should have too..

**** or a lie? You're drowning in manipulation's waters Fake your smile. Lie. I know your nightly tears are a fact One you can't deny A fake smile is pointless We all decieve nonetheless We're our own fatal mistake

The most luminous example of a fallen angel An ignored history.. A need for attention.. We define The Humanity Problem globally.. Let me enter the mind of a killer Let me learn from within the mind of a saint I will calculate the sociology The norms killing our psychology With pad and pen as my everlasting friend.. I want to burn in hells I seek to bask in heavens Show me the soul in my eyes Weathering through a common storm.. People will find the real normal.. If they love themselves and help others.. It should be an oddity to erase normality And so it exists only as a common standard.. That is how I grew up.. What if we ended expectations? What if we embraced change? Compassion could be a global comeback.. There is a nature in duality.. Humans engraved into double-edged swords.. If we could create love and war.. We may be able to end our battles.. We could live with evidence and compassion.. Ending our need to be beautiful, better or rich As an American.. I am built of guilt I suffer.. I displayed kindness, love and compassion I valued evidence over assumption Pointed out an economy of overconsumption Only to be labeled as.. 'Sheep' 'Idealistic' So.. to my fellow kinsmen and women.. Open up a dictionary.. If I am a sheep.. We as a whole are not shephards.. Who do you look for to guide you? Isn't America obviously lost? We are defined as sheep by a globe called Earth Currently? Like it or not.. They're right.. I am not powerful I am weak Despite the ego of America.. I am no sherpah.. I am no sheep.. I will never be a shephard.. I will only ever be me.. Think of you when at your happiest.. Revel in the lessons of how that was stolen.. It will be Hell.. I'll be blunt with that fact.. Want peace? Face it. Face you. Deflate all of your ego. We need to bring back who we were long ago.. We need to care and foster Hope.. Eradicate foolish hate.. Value intelligence and knowledge.. Divided we are destined to **** and die.. But.. United? We could be a beacon of hope.. A beacon brighter than God, who we're under An American Beauty.. That has shed her mistakes.. To let go.. Of her American Ego..

Why does no one ask the darkness.. "Are you ok?" Fools wander whilst being unmade.. They wonder where agony sleeps.. Within a Silent Mirror is genesis of pain..

A normal day waking up I fetch me a quick dose of a nation's situation The television on as briefly as possible Down my hallway, a shower, steeling myself Applying my image to shield vulnerabilities Briskly walking back through the hallway Raising a middle finger to a blank tv screen So much pain.. Coffee or an energy drink? Maybe ***** but I need to be able to think Reaching like a tired Monster for a Redbull I still can't escape by flying away.. Counter drawers, withdrawing a dose.. An antidepressant placebo This land's status always makes it both though Anyways.. Light of the new day looms I'd love to just witness compassion Yeah.. Its.. A normal day.. With a heart screaming silently With a mind trained to suppress Appearing as my best.. This stress.. When will it end..? Lately I'm on autopilot The stress feels like I'm a mess at best Knowing I'm not alone in this.. It brings a slight comfort and a wave of hurt.. Times are changing and.. Its.. Heartbreaking..

"Man in his arrogance" -Carl Sagan --May you rest peacefully amongst the stars-- All we have destroyed.. Look at the skies.. Those stars.. Those dreams.. Those wonders.. Money and power Splendor and valor Music and our judgment We do seem.. Paradoxical Harmoniously dissonant We were given ourselves.. By Nature or by God.. A gift of a chance.. Why do we draw lines? Lines of paper copied from earth Counties and countries Simple foolishness Earth is home Keep it simple Help it stay that Your opinions matter My opinions matter It is our species It is what we know now All the meanings we create.. Humanity is insignificant When sketching with the pride of ego As we drew lines around beauty to claim it We whittled ourselves down We must not hate intelligence We must view Humanity.. As the Moon did long ago.. A blue wonder's residents.. Miracles.. Free of lines Free of our own abuse.. I am only words.. Love is my hidden explanation for respect So I worry for her.. The moon.. I would see her tears I would hold Earth's Moon's hand.. I would if I could.. She exists terrified She would float away She strains against our gravity I cannot blame her.. We made life a fire in front of her Yet still there is Hope.. We could build a floating heaven.. You are not bound to Hell You can live So live and forgive.. The stars are waiting for you.. Embrace your dreams Make them yours.. We are us.. And us is all we have Nothing is forever.. Life exists to be lived

Appearances The hope of judgement The expressing of oneself a tool for sentiment Judge not the appearance of the woman Nor the postured stature of any man She never meant it No money she had to end it Then judgement was thrown against it Her silence lives where pain went.. As she walked through a doctor's doors You called her everything Then a little bit more As she lost what was dreams Still hated ever more.. Forever scorned.. He was kind Society is so blind No one is born with baggies in hand Money is torture, so he made a drug plan Now take the father or mother They simply fell ill Yet even still verbally they abuse them Hating them on a whim at your will.. Homeless after a career A Mother A Father You created their fear And on the streets humanity ends Pain draws so near.. Looked at as bums.. Seriously? My God *** This leaves me stunned Anger of all gods we wrote into existence Now only fuel for each instance of judgment Harsh words in an instant Devoid of raw substance What have we done? Do you not see this? We took love and kindness Now they seem dead I want to live freely.. As my heart burns in my head.. I think of good soldiers chock full of lead What have we done? We should have loved instead.. Look at them Real lives That have been rendered dead A horror, tears on our pillows Souls of weeping willows.. The unspoken thoughts that live in my head Beg you to care instead.. Please learn love.. Kindness.. We can still make it If we work hard at it, friend.. We can end up ahead Speeding toward goodness A lesson Pain of the past Light speed for light years.. Years long Tears fall strong.. I sing with words silent Setting aside my hells inside.. Sometimes in life you just gotta move along.. Will you hear my song? Because we have had this strength ... Had it all along..

My country tis of thee Land changed hatred free Violence for the judged Silence for the observer Evil never budges It changed kindness to brambles Left my flag in shambles We could pick up the pieces.. This is an american begging his populace to put an end to this.. We exist as broken as the lives that were stolen.. Too many are dead We pray in our rooms No cure no med Tears upon the pillows of our beds Ignorance Arrogance You've no heart to know So apart we grow My country tis of thee.. We are dying in this melting *** Such horrid heat, lost in thoughts My country tis of thee.. We grow as we fade I am not the only me You stole yourself now we cannot be free I beg you Wake up Hatred shut up America grow up This is not what veterans fought for.. Shame on you Love a blue hue Task of a saint Heart of blue paint People have tried but hearts have turned faint..
