We deserve the world we live in.
.
We've worked too hard to destroy it
To stop now.
.
.
We deserve the wars being fought.
.
We've built too high our borders
To tear them down now.
.
.
We deserve injustice and discrimination.
.
We've made too much an effort to build social barriers
To get rid of them now.
.
.
We deserve bad governments.
.
We've enabled them too much and given them too much freedom
To start complaining now.
.
.
We deserve all types of pollution.
.
We've taken nature for granted for too long
To take care of her now.
.
.
We deserve illnesses.
.
We've lived on excess for too long
To start worrying now.
.
.
We deserve the reality we live in.
.
We've been moulding it for generations
To break free from it now.
.
.
We deserve what we have.
.
We've put all our energy on it.
.
.
But who's to say we don't deserve
.
The chance to change as well
.
The opportunity to wake up
.
The drive to find unity
.
The knowledge to see the errors in our ways
.
.
Who's to say we don't deserve.
.
The chance to live.
.

We all have a little sadness that we have to live with
            And that's not a bad thing
Remembering
sad days
makes me happy,
I met
You there.
We are damaged,
     You and I,
But we're not broken
Sometimes,
    Love just fades
                         Away
I am attracted to all things
that have some darkness to them
to the mysteries they hold
-real or imaginary-.
.
I'm not sure of the reason why
maybe because I have some
latent darkness in me or maybe
I want to know if I'm
   Real
         Or
            Imaginary.
Pour energy
into your
words

Write with intensity
so great
that if you held the page
from a mountain's peak
your words
would be mistaken
for
stars
