I used to have some
but now I have none

The more I try to do good
the more that has gone

I'm no longer loved
I'm no longer trusted

Like an axe to David
My statue is busted
Christopher Nov 2020
I always wish for what I have,
but do I always have what I wish for?
Christopher Nov 2020
There is a fine line
between faithful confidence
and hopeful grandiosity

Those who walk that line
are categorized in finality

On the result
of the side of which they first fall.

Even
if it was the wind.

It is hard
when moral code
tells truth to abide,
on grounds of goodness.

To be good
is to be above average
on that scale

To be hard
is to be above average
on that scale

So I surmise
to be above average is a blessing

And the greatest blessings,
hold the greatest weights.

I used to think I knew
what normal was.
Then normal wasn't normal,
which isn’t normal.

Now I think I don't know where is left,
where is right.
Now I don't think I know where is up,
where is down.

Blinded by noise
And deafened by sight
The comings and goings of his day
build foundation on strifeful plight
Yet morning always comes
and still he continues to wake despite
His sorrows a part of him
but who he is whole
is a man of fight.
Christopher Oct 2020
The more I know
the less I speak
For silent is the mountain
of wisdom’s peak.
