The Moral of Today Is

The Moral of today is 
Listening to the words 
Of some other nightmare 
Watching and waiting for the next cue

Understanding, and reaching 
In and beyond the veil of the flesh 
And ink on paper 

Bringing in the ultimate sacrifice 
Knowing that in the end 
Its all about you

So it seems to cliche 
And 
A little to ironic

How someone you have never met 
Could possibly know so much about you 
Your life, your mind, your family 

For the darkest of secrets 
Often lie undisclosed and unresolve 
But yet 

Here it is and all you did
\as search a title 
and load it 

And in that title 
In the name 
In the body 

You have found salvation
Just a little bit of it 
And you know not how 

Who or why 
This became or will become 
And where 
Did it come from 

Cause hidden in the mind 
The things you never say 
Someswhere along the lines 

Thoughts became relative 
And relatable,
In Regards they almost make sense 

Almost seem logical 
Almost appear normal 
Almost become 

As they lay out on the table 
You cant help but to think 
How they were pulled 
Outside the vault 
Of things you wont ever say 
Dont ever want to think again 

But they repeat
As if on an auto setting 
And every time you hear it 

You dissapear into the void 
Of words unsaid 
Things unthought 

And It all starts over again 
As 
The Moral of today
