Beyond Reason

Into my hands
my future has been molded
surrounded by dreams
drowned by lies
 Pictures of my reality
resemble a drink
in a blender
chaos rests here
 Torn between
what is and what could be
from my toil my hands bleed
 Trying to fine reason
 a world of black and white
when hope appears to be lost
When one one is favored
and another dishonored
 Trying to understand this world
is it real or dream
the heartlessness of man
is beyond all reason
