• Dialogue: Bitter, Are We?


    The happy times are drumming on
    We embrace them, by pushing away fear – the anger
    Because, rejection and hurt are cursed words
    That makes us bitter and frail, by realigning ourselves

    To dreams…

    What are dreams?
    I’ve made my own and refused to believe-
    That the hatred and lies, unlike the beauty inside
    Are the downfalls we’re freely fighting for?

    As we perceive…

    The dirty ******** I give, hang here…
    Right here, on my heart, riddled with strings
    A puppeteer to the black, the sky, the track
    Woven right into my soul, tightly
    As the echoes bounce back and forth…

    Nothing
    Nothing
    NOTHING!
    Will bring us back – bring me back
    With a fool’s word like redemption
    And mine a simple sorry.

    Sorry..
    It isn’t good enough.

    My will wavered, and fears ignited
    Washed in your shadows, where I’ve been slighted
    Because human beings don’t belong
    In a world so pure and in dreams that allure
    To this insanity that plagues us all.

    We forfeited love for pleasure
    A temporary high, a ruse
    I smile, cry and laugh inside
    At the one thing I cannot bear to lose

    I choose..
    Myself.

    Then there’s that thing you can’t destroy
    It's the air that I breathe,
    It seeps into me, spreading
    Like the fires that burned in Troy.
