A Darker Living

I have lived the good living for some time
Am living the darker side unnoticed...
Everyday I left what's left behind
There is no more the need for what I have accomplished

My darker living... a quieter life
I accept that no understanding needs be in order
My living is only my significance who died
My surviving... I'm not asking for something better...

Let the world destroy itself because we do
Let the world try to do better... by our rate?
Every leaders of the world... who are you?
Why is living in harmony so hard to create?

I can see the good in life dying because of us
I can see the bad in us struggling because we hate
I can see ourselves dying because we last
I can see a world struggling because we make

Social is the creation of destruction from good
Because we are capable for our intuitive survival
When every goodness was exploited more then should
Imagine a better world why not... our neverending revival

This is excellent, precised and highly intellectual. A huge 7 for me.
