The Capitol
The greatest way to reclaim a nation, is the relentless attack of peace.

It's Lonely Out Here
I'm in crowd
And all I hear is loud
I feel more alone when I'm with others
Than when I'm by myself under the covers
I know that I'm never truly alone
The one I loved turned into Al Capone
I'm waiting for the one
I'm tired of being full of solitary bones

A Past
I used to write like I was running out of time
Some days my soul feels so poor it doesn't have a dime
I'm still pouring poison into my soul
My mind used to be as sharp maybe it's grown dull
I still pursue my God
He guides my life and where I trod
But lately I keep struggling trying to put him there
At the top of this barren fair
He invested so much in me
Was it all a waste?
I feel like a patriot in Boston dumping that tea
It wasn't in me, his faith was placed
I know his faith is in himself shining through me
If my future is blown from my past
He is not to blame

Hey guys! You all loved Whispers of Stars, I thought this poem might help elaborate!

So much knowledge to find
So little time to learn
So many people to teach
So little time to reach

Complacent
Is this you?
Focused on your own life?
Your enjoyment?
Your entertainment?
There's children in South America being hunted on the streets for sport
There's shootings across the globe
There are women contemplating killing their child because they aren't able to take care of them
There are mothers raising their kids alone, no one to defend them
No husband or father to fight for them
Slavery is still alive
Who will stand for what's right? Who will fight for the defenseless?
Is it you?
Or are you too busy thinking about what you are going to eat for lunch or where you are going on vacation?
Is there any man willing to dump the poisonous images and stop thinking of their own pleasure for the sake of others?
Are you complacent?
