A grasp for hope but not for normality
I grasp for something more in the world
Why ever desire something such as normality?  That’s like asking for less of something, anything in this enriching world of ours
See we have all the tools, all the elements and wondrous things in this world
And us as foolish
Truly foolish humans
We strive for lack of greatness
We strive to settle in and be
Content as we are
To be simple-minded
To hold something so magnificent only to say we should put it down before it breaks
To grasp for something, anything other than normality
Is also surrendering to the cold, hard fact that you will never be satisfied
You will never quench the thirst you so desperately crave
You will see the chaos of the world
You will see Evil’s eyes stab strangers
As well as the ones you love
The upstanding citizens will become
The pirating thieves deep in the night
Lit by the beautiful bright moon
A helper, lighting the thieves’ way to safety
