A Peace Less of a Dream

Today thinks fondly of yesterday
Like a lover embracing that lonely pillow
Soon to realize tomorrow was never meant
As  precaution cautiously breezes through the window
Mixed with the smells of sulfur and never morrow
Flowing into the nostrils of angels and men alike
Who await with happiness and butterflies
The sounds of death and slumber
When the final battle of men and souls are lost
To jealousy and unforgiveness
The rights of which were never earned
But still we judge and decide with limited knowledge
Thinking us smarter than we truly are
For even an infant can destroy a toy
With little thought of you and me
So here we are at last
Finally getting it!
Finally getting over ourselves
But now it is too late
As the whistles and horns blow
And in every hand the bible
And under every breath a song
Singing to those same whistles and horns
Not sure if the end of it all is manmade
Or heavenly kissed without forgiveness.

Marcel

Jealousy and unforgivness
two brothers to avoid
Nice work

Could feel the struggle, to the perfect end.
Well done.
