Clean Sweep

There is no happily ever after

Just dust of death 

Organized chaotic disaster

Don’t cheat yourself and pretend

There is a prince or princess waiting 

In some time and space unknown

They live only in dreams we try to bend

Innocence lost does not equal freedom gained

Freedom gained does not mean peace

Peace lives only in few and far moments

Moments of happiness a w***e and tease

Tease a glance at what is golden

Golden is not the only rule

Rules are harmless to guide beholden 

Behold yourself to find humility

Crying is just as deserving as being silly

Silly to worry about what cannot be changed

Be not willing to change and give way to fear

How is that living life to its fullest my dear?

Patience can be a cruel observer

Have none and snap to and fro

There must be a bit of curvature 

Where is the beginning

Being death the ultimate ending

The sun is rising and that’s a start

Amongst the destruction still beats a heart

This is so good, Pandora...after all the realities kick in we witness the destruction of falsities but tomorrow is a new day and with that beating heart there is a chance that we can rebuild on better ground... you capture what I feel has happened in my own life: a clean sweep.... great poetry!!
