Live through this

By Beyond Zion

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Replacement, That one great placebo for a perfect thought. Like when you want to speak but there are no words. In life we are the challenge. Like manaquins, we stand by idle with potenial energy. Yet, we find reasons for failure. Under-developed by choice, we examine our loss of intention, And follow each other over a cliff. The sword has fallen, and the pen remains true. Steady to the brink of sadness, we adjust our televisions to promote our happiness in sorrow. Capture this moment, for it will fail. Written April 21st, 2002 © on Apr 21 2002 07:04 AM PST   0 • 9
