Today

In the world of today everything’s painted grey Our past had been behind us, oh but no not today Do this, do that, it’s what they say Right up front the past lives painfully displayed It has begun, the segregation of you and me We are pulled apart by those who deem Our separation, we’re pulled apart like thread from the strings Their whispers on air, our pasts declared A denial to our future, what fruit does this bare Our future is dark, stocked full of hate Sorrow and Regret, the only things we ever create In the world of today, is it joy that’s been made Happiness for the destruction, the annihilations we’ve displayed The pain you’ve created, the destroyer of all To hate, to fear which one belongs Your past is not the only to whom matter Your interpretation of lives past, brought down, shattered lives destroyed in just a day When someone says “The Past Must Pay” It’s brought before us tattered, dismayed The past is behind us that’s where it should stay Our future could be bright, but everyone beware Love and sensitivity, our evidence, our burden to bear- 03/08/2021
