Thoughts of Expression

Thoughts of expression

No purpose has life, 
Nor reasonable rhythm within,
The constraints of our time.
Soul siblings in spirit, 
Human angels on earth.
Feeling inside,
Often denied of our strength, 
Protection and pride.
Professing protection, 
As one's lip services.
A confusion of chaotic clouds, 
Drifting away.
An enraged heart of hatred,
A selfish road of fumbling,
Words from our emotional expressions. 
Our reflecting memories,
Past, climbing in the distance. 
Quantity exists by becoming extinct.
Shattered stained glass tears, 
Rapidly falling to rest upon the cheeks of snow adrift.
Explanations of justifications 
Finally knocking on the open door. 
Pretending points of clarity, 
With every breath we take. 
Is a windfall of perseverance.
With the swords of words spoken from our lips, 
Piercing our hearts tonight.
Eventually to see the same,
Reflections of others.
Faith ignites deep within, 
Our souls aflame ablazing.
Ideas unheard of,
Unseen sights.
A variety of visions , 
Left behind, 
Caused by our blindness, 
Of a nation. 
Distracted from the truth of 
Life's true meaning.
