Change of pace
I am going to try harder today
Not that I don't always try,
But today I am going to try harder.
I write, because it is a
Creative Outlet
A way to express myself
In a healthy way.
Usually it is stream of conciousness
word association exercises
to keep my mind sharp
and maybe inspire me
in some other facet.
But I also write
because it helps me
make sense of the world
make sense of my feelings
and to make sense
of how we all fit together as people.
But somethings can happen
that make no sense, a school shooting
or something like vegas.
In this case its 52 people
deciding that party
is above country.
They value patriotism
but defend the guy
who betrayed the country
for political gain.
They allow him to lock children in cages
just because they are brown.
History will prove them wrong
but will i live to see history?
words get repeated so much
that they lose their meaning
and become pure noise
lies said earnestly
become the truth to another
but there are no words
that can justify 4 years
that seemingly destroy the values
i was raised to believe in.
will you sit beside me
as the world comes down?
cause i could really use a friend.
