This is not a love letter
How could it be?
When I am in love
How could it be?

This is not a love letter
As I have hoped to be
The words of love
I have hoped you’d see

This is not a love letter
There is nothing else to say
Than to let you go
To let you fly away

This is not a love letter
How could it be?
When you are in love
And the loved one isn’t me

Walking around like a pack of animals
Following each other
copying what we see,
What really separates us from animals?

We talk, we think, we try to explain
but we also follow, we do as we told, we believe what is said
We work, we build, we have fun
but I'm still not seeing what truly separates us from animals

The only thing that I see different is our power
anything different we try to hurt, **** or experiment on
if any animal behaved like a human
what do you think we would do to it?
We'd experiment, we'd ****, we would torture
or put it on TV and turn it in to a celebrity.

So I ask what truly separates us from animals?

I can feel it in the air.

We are all getting much more powerful. Prayers are being answered with earnest and manifesting immediately.

It's now no longer enough for we poets to simply say things like we mean them.

We must say things that mean something.
A brave man once stood
fighting for what he believed to be true
it took an army to silence him
but his message lives on

He came into this world as a miracle
tough on his parents even tougher on him
I question, did he know how his end would come.
From the moment of his birth he was gifted
but later in life his gifts would change everything

If he was only a man then what a man
he deserves our respect not our hatred
2000 years have passed and we are still waiting for him to return
he died for our sins, so sad, so very sad
I question, does everyone deserve his sacrifice.

It brings a tear to my eye
whipped
stabbed
tortured
killed
to much for anyone to bare
he didn't deserve it
especially for only refusing to back down on his beliefs
I question, did he have anything good in his life
I hope he did.

I'm sorry
I'm your friend
I'd protect you
I love you
you truly were amazing

If you wasn't the son of God
then you deserve more credit than you get
we don't know what really happened
but dieing for our sins is an amazing sacrifice

I'M SORRY
YOU DESERVED BETTER
