Victim of Politics

Simple joys took for granted a life worth living lost beyond the horizon silently seeking a dream lost among the crowded streets longing to succeed wander i do can't understand why they won't speak not a glimpse back at me just a face in a sea of strange drowning out what i feel motionlessly staring out above their heads wanting change but not reacting not directing these timid words life a blur an altered appearance of perfection i pro tray chained to the dark ******** of society forced to suck it all in a slave to the times raped by a government's weakness bleeding and bruised i continue on with out a care still believing this won' t happen again but it does everyday over and over again pounded to the curb just a number in a universe of unknowing a forgotten victim of politics as usual
