In Blackest Where There Be Shades
It becomes so hard to forget a day like today
So close to the sea, so close to the end of forever
The blackness paints too perfectly for words to say
I am to see a life beyond my life to be better
I cannot emphasize enough how much it got me
So many years in the making without realization
Seen wasn't until to see... to actually be
Are we truly a human in actual mannerism
How has it become an achievement to attain?
A betterment in life to only those who can afford
That of poor for richness to maintain
Why isn't the unaffordable in accord?
And it isn't a human life who awoken my senses
Simply an other living species who indulges
Every other lives born into chances
Never in manners... certainly not in sizes
I might just well forget this very day
Because to witness is to forget or remember forever
When blackness paints too perfectly beyond words to say
There are always a different life beyond life to be better
