Raging Lives
A fire raging and a forest burning
What shall stop our pain?
Is it love, is it life?
Is it death?
Can we bring ourselves to ignore it?
Can we bring ourselves to hate it, to let life perish?
What can a fire bring besides hate, anger, and deception?
No wind…
No rain…
No love…
But here is all the hate
Here is all the death
Here is all the pain
No one cares but a life will pass
A life that has passed, a life that is forgotten…
These raging lives…
