FOUR DIFFERENT STATES OF THIS NIGHT (In a state of) JOY AND REFLECTION The beautiful day Like this I will look back on I will miss And see, remember In faded colours Shades of gray With a tinted smile And hints of blue I wish I could share this With you (In a state of) BURNING What evil I've done Just to become One of the others To make you proud So you could say My son the officer (In a state of) CONSCIOUSNESS I know I'm a hypocrite I know I'm a liar I know I argue against My own opinions and beliefs I know I'm divided But even as much as I hate it I can't help it So don't look at me like that Stop loving me I'm not what you think I'm not the coloured scrap You've painted me to be If I were to reveal My true tones You'd hate me so So please hate me (In a state of) CONFUSING HOPELESSNESS How much is a life worth? How do we know when to stop? We're no longer just spinning gently Into eternity and oblivion We're burning into overdrive To win the election We make war Blood is great stuff For the polls Vote for genocide! We've become supernatural Who decides when it's enough Where do we go from here? From super to hypernatural? We won't go back! Love, is but a word Our existence is fear Chasing the comfort We are numb And we want more To become even less Oh! To be a dream What's that? Is that you? |

Welcome to Passions! Enjoyed the rawness to this...I can't describe it any better but your words hit hard.... If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried. |

Androgynous~ Welcome to our poetic circle of friends~ 'Love, is but a word Our existence is fear Chasing the comfort' This is a ponderous thought and I shall do just that~ Thank you so much for the beautiful reply you put on my 'Write Me A Mountain' ... I am always pleased when someone takes the time to reflect on the words that have fallen to the page~ It's a beautiful day to be a poetess~ *Huglets*  ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Welcome to Passions! I liked this poem. It describes various seasons in our lives. We go through different states at different points in our lives. You wrote How much is a life worth? A like is priceless, especially to God. Very well thought out and very well written, you will be an excellent addition to Passions. Once again, welcome. Sheri Adams Jesus lives in my heart! He can in yours too!!! |
