Poem
The end of this beautiful life. Holding on to the edge of the world And we are all about to lose our grip! Wishing I could have been anywhere else! When all they told us never cured my fear! I've been told that this is the beginning of life, But everything is just not what it seems… All I wanted was a love to be strong, But I can never learn how to forgive! Summer dies and the sun no longer shines, In this little town I don't call my home. I've been told that the good will out, But I can't even stand up, to stand alone! Feelings change but the day is the same And I guess that's why nothing will ever change! All along I knew that they were all wrong, But I could never find a beautiful way! Bitter lies are all I have ever heard And now I never know who I can trust! In this life we are given just one chance, But I could never raise a smile to the sun! Blind my eyes, give me cancerous bones, It's just another Devil's cunning trick. They keep on saying that things will get better, But I have seen so much that I can no longer believe! Where is the hope, of which they spoke? Another promise broken and another disease. All that they did never affected me, It just left a black hole in place of my soul! In these days of having everything we crave, Why can I not just get a little hope? At the end can we stop pretending, That the better times are up ahead? I’ve seen you all and I will watch your planet crumble And I will leave this place to burn and have no regrets! If all we are is just a dying breed And we are underneath a dying star! Why can’t we do what we know we must do? I guess our greed will leave us all dead in the end! Humanity, where is the humanity? We have no reason to carry on. Our times has come, under a dying sun And soon we will all just be gone! Beautiful horizon I see you fading away And all that’s left is a stump they used to call an oak. If we can’t stop then what will become of this place? The pollution mask will not protect you from their smoke. It’s the end of a beautiful world And it’s a place I do not even recognize! It’s evolution and the beginning of a species reborn, Because in the end all we have left to do is die! (C)2016 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.
