Sleep

You betrayed me, I trusted you 
Now look here there are only a few
I leave for a bit 
I come back to sit 
My dessert now gone, it had to be you

Eyes that burn with rage and fury 
Someone bring in the grand jury 
The evidence is here
It is bright and clear
My revenge will be savoury 

To get away without getting caught
Is something that cannot be bought 
Plan the course of action 
Without a distraction 
You are paying for my distraught 

With nowhere to go and hide
Oh you better be terrified 
You will pay for this 
Screaming into an abyss
You created a great divide

You must leave now before it’s to late
You becoming lost is something I’d hate
Afterall we are sisters
And I may be bitter 
Now dear sister give me your plate

The Invisible Battle

Chaos ensues 
People cower in fear 
They search for something that doesn't want to be found
It is successful. 
We shield ourselves, our loved ones, our neighbors 
These barriers block reality
Shielding us from our demise 
While shining light on the evil that lurks 
Nonetheless it seeps
It bleeds through
Our shining shields stained with hope 
Now discarded in the streets 
Now dividing nations 

As it gains power 
We lose control 
As it gains controversy 
We lose part of us 
Honesty, hope, history 
We lose in the face of terror 
Tears, tombstones, taking with it routine 
We lose to an opponent we can’t see 
But argue over 
Point fingers over 
Lose ourselves over 
We cling on to what we know 
We must hold on to it for as long as we can 
For if we don’t 
It will be there to seize it away from us

Silence

Silence 
The best time 
All is quiet 
No cars humming, with their exhaust polluting the air
No music playing, with their superficial words 
No T.V. shows running, with their unrealistic plots 
No people talking, with their desire to better the other 
Just silence
