Clarity
Truth of the mind
Does it foster love?
Or does it foster chaos?
Lateral truth
Lateral violence
How many have died
Fighting for lies?
Chandy May 23
Control and coldness
Sliding scales
Twisted reflections
Balance is needed
But all we offer is extremes
One or the other
All it does is smother
How far we have come
Tells how far we have left
Independence
Turns our hearts insulated
Blocking and dodging
What matters most
By killing hope

Oh, the rain
Nurturing and plentiful
Necessary for life
As it drops down our hands
Oh, the rain
I wonder if one day
Our rain-soaked hands
Will be filled with holes
As you pierce right through us
A cry soon hushed
Since the deal was
Acid for gold

People crumble
The rest shall follow
I would save them all
But the pain is hard to swallow
Chandy May 16
Teeth like knives
Eyes blood red
Hands adorned with claws
Feet fast to hunt
A beast, a monster
Self-made moniker
Looking in glass reflections
Was it always like this...?
Am I the victim or just another monster?
Chandy May 16
Awake and dreaming
Dreaming while awake
Awake while dreaming
But reality keeps me dreaming
Of a better place where we have meaning
Now all that remains are illusions
Justifying ourselves
By removing feeling
While the successful look down
To feel something
So cruel and smug
To fill years of disharmony
Chandy May 16
Skyline's colors
Constantly changing
Blue and grey
Orange and red
Yet it is still the same
But I wonder if when
Things fall down
The sky is weeping
Or just maybe
It is sharing something
To help somebody
