Where Are We Goin'

Where Are We Goin'

A Poem by Healing Star
"

On a Morning that is as Bright as any other, in a Dawn that could be our Last, in a Year that could end our Fear.

"
Have you thought About

Hey, have you thought About

Just where it Is

That we're Goin'

Have we thought About

Yeah, Have we thought About

Just where in the Hell, we are Goin'

You know it seems this S**t

Just keeps Piling Higher

I said, did anyone Notice

Just how High

It all just seems to Get

And that Maybe, one Day 

We are ALL going to Drown In It

I said, we just might Drown In It

And it is so Stinky

And there are so many People 

That just can't seem to stop Crying

And there are many at the Top

Who just can't stop Lying

And I have to Ask, Right Now

Why are so many Dying

Why are so many Dying

And 

Have you thought About

Hey, have you thought About

Just where it Is

That we're Goin'

Have we thought About

Yeah, Have we thought About

Just where in the Hell, we are Goin'

I'd like to Think 

That there are so many, who can See

Through all the Blindness

And believe that we Can Free

Everyone, through our own Kindness

Yes, so many are waking Up

And are whipping their Eyes

Of the sand that's been placed There

If we keep Believing, after so many Tries

That we can truly clear this Air

Clear this Air

This filthy Air, that we all Breathe

That our Hearts can be Trained

To give up a Dream that had no Silver Lining

And that everyone got Lost in what we thought we Gained

When will the Pain

When will the Pain

Cease

Only when all the Children begin to Believe

Yes, when we can help each one to Know

That we were Deceived

But now that we have awakened from the Dream of Old

We are going to Create a whole new way to Be

And train each other to care for each and every One

To hold each other on those Nights that it gets Cold

And that there are better answers than the Gun

That we can change before our Dream gets too Old

Have you thought About

Hey, have you thought About

Just where it Is

That we're Goin'

Please, won't you Join me in my Prayer

Help me to Cry out to the Masses, Please

That this world is not so cold, and we can play Fair

Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please, Please

Won't you take just one more Look

A look at just where the Hell that we are all Goin'

Put down that Drink, put down that Book

What is it, that your Beautiful Heart is Showin'

Do you even Know Anymore

What it is that that Heart of yours is Showin'

And if you go and you Check It

And it surprises You

Well then maybe then, you'll know these words are True

I am a man who has finally realized he needs to write down what matters to him, that I might learn from myself, what is important, what I value. To capture who I am now, for that is all we have is no.. more..
