On My Yoga Mat
 Mar 2016 echo

What am I doing
On this planet?

Really?

I just spent a half an hour
Or so lounging
On a yoga mat

In a park

Like I always do

I didn't work last week
Maybe no jobs
This week either

I'm poor
Oh well

Put my long pants on
Because it was cold

One day,
I'm sure

All the big countries
Will start a big war

There is no lesser evil that benefits the greater good,
The people victims in a system thats misunderstood
Fussing and fighting over money and their policies
Forget the hungry, dying species, and polluted seas

Saying the systems so superb, such a grand thing
being fooled and bamboozled to where we cant think
No longer following our own dreams
So convoluted trapped inside of this grand scheme

Jack of all trades, master of none
they have many games to play, you cant go after just one
Please pretend to have a say, in their controlled outcome
be at ease, go to sleep, as feet stomp to war drums

Is this how we should exist, should I really be ******?
Am I the only who thinks we can do better than this?
Why do so many participate in this ignorance?
Why must we allow fallacies like this to persist?

May I never be content
May I never be complete
For when we stop evolving
We become obsolete

Together?
 Mar 2016 echo
Zoe
Together,
a word I dislike,
for he has left
and gone.
You made
a promise to me,
yet I'm all alone.
Oh God,
please help
me.*

...
Just thoughts.
A prayer.

Peace

The
relief I found
is sustaining and freeing.
No longer working
******* tests.
No more
bullies.
Peace.
I now have
obtained it.
Peace, wonderful
peace.

So difficult was this year of school.
Glad for a vacation! :) <3

These hands hang down
and my heart droops within;
these feet are tired - my back sags
shouldering so much,
visible and invisible.
Oh Lord, sustain me,
I pray!
Lend me
strength to
continue,
lest I should
fall and not
be able
to get
up.
