It's Just Another End of the World

We don't know why we're here, or why we put up with it, or why when things end other things begin. Do your best and don't worry. If it's not good enough. Then move on it's not the end of the world.

We're all ghosts,

We're the oppressed and the corrupt, 

Tip-toeing in and out of what's real and what's fantasy.

What's there to believe in?

What was true as been and gone,

Truth and love are temporary, do your best and don't worry.

We've drained imagination, no-one cares who's real or fake.

We've worn the purity out of truth, everyone's unkind.

There is a better fate, there must be but I'm not worth it.

Grim sky hides uncertain stars from the myth in your heart.

Oblivion is all that's between us, we pay for our dreams.

From the heart of the heart of pain, it's just another end to the world.

Author's Note

The heart of the heart of love is war, pain, misery and despair.

This is amazing. I love the third stanza.

"We've drained imagination, no-one cares who's real or fake.
We've worn the purity out of truth, everyone's unkind.
There is a better fate, there must be but I'm not worth it."

Your poems always really drive one to think.

This poem is wonderful! I love your use of words. I love the way you wrote it. I really enjoy reading your poems! You have a way with words.

Good job, it's a great poem. Your stanzas develop into longer ones as we learn more about the speaker, good use of physical imagry. Your vocabulary is the third best thing about this poem. Fantastic.

very thought provoking read..someone's perception of concepts physical or spiritual is always interesting..truth and love are forever enduring...

Excellent!
I am hit hard by this, so many reflections of life and the senselessness to it!
Awesome work love!
All will become clear and yet there is that fear of what is beyond, or the realisation that the heart is a ghost before that time comes, whats worse? lol
Stunning work!
