A To Z

In this remarkable world without reasons
Every word and every thought seem so priceless
Something that can bring belief into you
On the other hand, it can also rip you heart apart

We learn how to verbalize the ideas in our minds
That what we think is often reversed with our heart
In our youth, we learn how to say as of A to Z
Every letter with its own value within

Agony – bereavement – caginess – death  - excitement – failure - hope – generosity – 
insanity – jealousy – knowledge – love - modesty – narcissism – obsession – peacefulness- 
quaintness - rottenness- saintliness – temptations – urbanity – voracious - wisdom - 
xenophobia – yearning and zealous

As you can notice on each word above
It has overflowed inside our minds 
We face those values each day 
These are all emotions that stay in each soul 

Some of us may struggle with reality
They keep on holding on their hopes and dreams
To find a better place to live and heart to loved
To discover what is secured to stay alive

Not so slightly of us living in worry
Searching for a bit of bliss to cover their agony
They will keep on running from reality
From the madness of life and the loneliness of heart

If there is only one hope in this universe
And people are fighting to grab on it
One hope to sterilize our impure hearts
Then my wish is to die in peace
