![]() ClearA Poem by Justin Avan
I've seen misery make a love to me
Envelop my dire dreams and send me to the grave With my hands stuck to pillars Remembering I've seen two times of lies And no one could make sense of that I can write vilifications to clarifications To an insufferable mind Not truly wanting my answers Daunting in my own existence while they set flames to my questions As if blasphemy is a trend As if lost faith and lost hope was a rebellion to a higher power Maybe they should change where they stand... Because their point of view is contorted I've never tried to revoke what I rooted from Seedling to a belief that I never understood enough But now I'm drowning in the water in which claimed me to be One of them More than just a human being But you'll never understand that You will never understand that And I'd blame myself before I blame you for blinding me Cause I let it happen I let the deafening sounds of counterfeit cures become my only awakening To realize that lies come in many different forms And even the most comforting Can cause the biggest war Cause you'll accept what you accept without second guessing your perception Rather than break free and cast away evil You embody an eternity of insanity You keep telling yourself that this is not how you raised me But praise me for not remaining in chains That gave me mixed messages of what true compassion is In which betrayed me The same religion that wants to condemn me I can't render another night of it And I could chop up the pieces that work best But I'd rather isolate my mind than going on living in yours While convulsing in my own regret © 2014 Justin Avan |
