Evening Poem
Well, of course everyone
Has a right to express
Themselves however
They want
And these images
May have some
Deep meaning
I just don't like it
Humans without eyes
Or non-human eyes
Or whatever it might be
It is all a bunch
Of *******
If you ask me
Distorting what
Is natural
Altering what is real
I am a lover
Of the light
You know the deal
That doesn't mean
I can't appreciate
Being miserable
Or being sad
It doesn't mean
I can't appreciate
Being depressed
Or mad
These images
May express
How someone feels
It may communicate
A pain that is real
And I of all people
Can understand
Emotional pain
I am miserable
And alone
Sitting at my desk
Writing these poems
I feel that earth
Is just a temporary home
I love the light beings
Don't you see
The ones who
Spread joy
To you and to me
Muhammad, Buddha, Jesus too
Religion can be good for you
Or an agnostic
That is fine too
Just don't let
Your heart
Turn to stone
Do not let darkness
Drag you in
Lovers of the light
They will win
It's being natural you see
Being light
And walking
So happily
Sometimes life
Will make you mad
Other times will make you sad
I'm not that happy
Not at all
But I was sent
To earth
I will stand tall
Not too proud
I'm just me
This is the life cycle
Just let things be
You will decide
In the end
Whether you want
Light or darkness
To be your friend
Blackness and void
I am not afraid of you
You provide the background
And like the stars
I can shine through
