Divided by choice

Our votes a collaborative voice

shouting out- for or against change

Ask and you shall hear a flurry of

thoughts, slurs and worry

*"We are stronger together" or " we are better apart" *

We remain divided
the 'undecided'  are fair game
hurried to succumb to a decision -
with no revision
of the facts.

you are undeniably beautiful, your beauty shines so bright
like the possessing charm of stars, twinkling at night
but when my heart sinks in a black pool of sorrow,
sinking and drowning in more fear and horror...
it is not your beauty I remember
it is not your beauty I remember

And when my lonely soul again feels alone
under the rain in a dead-silent tone
or when my soul with anger is overtaken
or when my heart is in fifty pieces broken
it is your undying love I remember
it is not your beauty i remember
we humans are drawn to beauty like bees to flower but when beauty is stabbed by Age's dagger or when it cloaks itself from our eyes... we remember what really matters
....LOVE NOT BEAUTY
Dawn is coming so we better start running.
With the sun fast rising our problems start flooding back to us.
Pound your feet and stay off the streets,
or they will find you again.

We’ll chase these nights where we live without shame.
Light floods from the sun, we’re under the gun.
And it shines on our imperfections.

It’s always easier to run from your problems,
if you could only keep running.
Closing in, you’ll never win.
If you could only keep running…
You moved away,
you thought you were safe.
Don't fear the reaper,
'cuz I took his place.
I’m falling apart at the seams,
Trying to keep you out of my dreams.
Every night I see your face,
A perfect image of my shame.
A time in my life where I went so wrong.
I’ve moved on I just want you gone.

The memories come flooding in,
from a place in my mind that I thought was dead.
Who is that man pretending to be me?
Was I really that awful?
I’m so sorry.
A quick little poem that I had jingling around in my head and decided to write down.
A killer of killers.
The truth from a liar.
You're just as wretched as the ones you defile.
You criticize but can't you see,
your apple didn't fall far from Eden's tree.
Just a quick something I had rolling around my head.
