Confusion

Below our very feet, there are souls dreaming of nations after them. Despite being held hostage, every understanding is collected Throwing away all faith, allow their hate. Walls tremble with thoughts, glass shatters like all anxiety Artists scramble for cover, only to find and discover How cowards steal for themselves and find no fault Water. Water. Burning desire. Fingerprints dissolves as if dropped in acid. Shadows and smiles go so well together but darkness and light cannot mix, like oil and water. Fire. Fire. Why are you so cold? I'll take on my foes if it means I'll die. God. God. You above all know their thought. Forgive me for crying. Anger and sadness, they pale in comparison to my gentleness and happiness I don't agree with the world and want to show them all but I'm only a tiny seed. Birds grasp at my as I've fallen through cracks, water drip drop onto my skin. Sun show your fire, give me heat. God make me rise, make me grow, not unlike a disease. Wolves that howl and fish that swim, such opposites but both kinds alive to survive. My mind is dull, and heart is weak Words tumble in cheat
