I’ve been running like a sentence
Never begun

I’ve been searching for a way
To let you know…


On clouds surreal, I feel
“There’s nothing left to fill the spaces…”

There are different degrees of dying,  
From the intentional ingesting of toxins, to
   traps of woeful mental misery.
These are the scars of war,
the result of a battle waged against
An insanity we call
American Culture.

Dysfunctional. Systematic. Denial.    

He’s drowning in his tears.
I see worth unraveling profusely,
Flooding a tender heart relentless
with undeserved, unceasing abuse.

Soul’s Cry.  This isn’t freedom.

A lack of belief
In worth inherent
Shatters sanctums where
Serenity resides.

I weep. Echoing truth with the fury of flames inspiring a sunrise of soul psalms.

O' to be delivered from the realm of the rational into pure song...
