[Was it always meant to rain?] Will I ever be like the sky or can the sun set with me? These are wonders betraying - what is free. Captivity - the only true freedom with some breeze. The heat burns. Can anything hear me besides trees? Even if they cover me - they cannot stand forever. They rustle - persuading me of a forbidden pleasure. A fruit left at a branch that picks at my self-will. Mentioned is how a mere fruit can restore life-thrill. Will it be worth the risk - though the sky is up above? Maybe, it's better than gazing on a dream well-slept. To soar - than count the days I've wept. - - they were right, I have no more weight to bear. My days on this planet were counted very little to care- If the trees became wet in a drizzle of ashed lament. The trees would've grown frail - as I am well-spent. - clouds now blow across the sky I once looked up to. Strangling me in the cotton tendrils I weaved as I withdrew. The sun is gone and it's cold here - why did I listen? Everything pours below, drowning the forest canopy. All my trees uprooted from the ground I stood in. Was I just living in a dream? The sky is fading away - and so am I... - It becomes blue again. - It was all a passing storm. and... the rain did not comfort me.

Up Above
Dennis the Menace Turning light, burning berries Sharing stories of the fairies Calling its lore, did you found them on the fallen shore. No, they were written on papyrus By the centuries-old Cytomegalovirus. Crack-heads smoking *** vivid imaginations are they moral compass. Bang! Skip to the future Reaper deeper leader neither speaker Vocal sounds like a viper My words **** like a ****** Hideaway from the truth Put on your shady glasses of confute. ©SARCASTICBONG

MORAL COMPASS
Thoughtless  words are the weapons   of society , attacks  emotionally Whose words only last so long, but a toxic upshot is forever. ©harpreetk1002

Thoughtless
*So empty and vain Forced smile on cadaver Carrying loads of misfortunes Dead alive and alive when l sleep Is it life or human design To hammer my shell And emerge broken bird So they can doll me up to play*
