Changing Ways

Changing Ways


 Changing old ways and changing old style
 Leading you to think rather than just smile
 Sending swimming daggers into your brain
 Your body shivers as soaked in a cold rain

 The lights ooze and bleed ever deeper into you
 Misery emerges and you know you got your due
 Hurting from stonedead feet to pounding head
 Finding wisdom in the newly born words read

 Aching pain given only to reward great relief
 Then you will know great truth and find belief
 Gone are the pleas once enslaving body and soul
 Revelation in kind guides into a saving goal

 Words slash, blast and invincibly take measure
 Bringing forth knowledge's greatest treasure
 Change your ways, change your style
 Celebrate and reward with a brilliant smile .. Tyr- 05-03 2014

Sounds like a call for repentance in non-religious terms. Nice write.
