Submerged Ruins

Submerged Ruins 
Sometimes we ponder about tomorrow 
While everything is falling apart 
Disaster continues everywhere 24/7 
Everyone is going mad 
Turn off the news and the distorted noise 
Ignore the drowning rage 
Don’t be hypnotized 
Find your own spiritual way 
Do you hold on to sympathy? 
Don’t follow the world 
Follow your own heart 
Not people 
Not alarming chaos as bleeding continues 
Write your own chapter 
Just be you  
No one else 
Remain calm in the storm 
Everywhere you look is constantly burning 
Lives are fading 
Walk the narrow road 
The cross is the only way home
