In the midst

Discounted...
Discredited...
Defiled...
And defamed...
Slandered
And mind slaved
I can't handle this game

Plans planned so carefully
Me obliviously unaware
Too cute to wonder
And too young to care

Beginning at the beginnings
I do dare to tell
I was wishing on wishing wells
They were playing in HELL
With Ron Paul, Ol' Jimmy
And Donnie what's his name

Where's the shame?

No turning back
Fast forward to here
Rewinding the future
Doesn't work my dear.

Dry creeks run warm and
Rivers always flow
down stream
And
Water falls were just
Rushing waves to ponder
In the midst of it all

Now I'm left to wonder
What the hell is life for?
Like fish in a pond
That always take the bait
And then go back for more

Fair isn't fair and this is a war!

I think shame is sadly optional these days. Nice vent.

thanks for sharing

I leave to walk ahead, only to be lost
Even though I cannot see the end, I will leave on a journey at range, i think its alright if i disappear

Having your trust destroyed is infuriating. I hear the war drums beating at the end. Bait should be studied and analyzed before you grab on for sure. Enjoyed!
