Choice?

Choice?

A Poem by Healing Star
"

About the Politics I refuse to Follow, I have not listened to News in a couple of years, no standard TV hear, netflix, Gaia, Amazon, Hulu is all we have and it's usually Gaia for me. I

"
Has it ever been more Clear
Do you really have a Choice
As you go into that voting Booth
Has it ever been more Obvious

So you Really have a Choice
The interests of the upper .25 of a Percent
Will surely be covered this time Around
I feel kind of dirty, nothing seems Heaven Sent

So I ask again, do you Really have a Choice
It seems there isn't at All
Only an opportunity to express my Voice
Has it ever been more Obvious

That they have gained total Control
Has it ever been more Clear
Have we all really lost our Soul
Perhaps it's ourselves that we should Fear

I hope you feel there is somethin' worth Savin'
But I'm beginning to wonder, my Friend
Are we moving Forward trying not too Slide
Where will our Hearts be in the End

Everything Around just seems to be Shaking
So many Souls just seem to be Numb
Can you hear it, I feel the Ground is Breaking
Is it that Time, has it really Come

It use to be my paycheck went Far
Now it seems it's gone before Light
But now I don't know who we really Are
Now do you really think this all seems Right

Is there someone been messin' and Riggin' the Game
Seems it's been buildin' since the Day I was Born
And you always got someone New to Blame
It's time we stand and not be Torn

The same force that arranges things Now
It's the same as what killed the Kennedy's
Do we really know to who they Bow
And Martin Luther as he stood on the Balcony

There is Hope, it's not in that Booth
It's that the writings being written on the Wall
But it's not a subway, but each of our Hearts
I hope in my Message you hear a Call

At the end of this War and Hypocrisy
There will be no winner, but the ones on Top
I need to find my own Philosophy
Hoping my seeds will make it to Crop

The Hope is in the New Awareness were Finding
WE will wake into a new Dream as the Fog Clears
A feeling that our Love is where we'll be Binding
I See a Bright Future with all conquering Fears

Love will find a Way
Like a Poet who uses his words as Weapons
Lives to Fight another Day
We have to Believe we can keep Carrying On

Even if the skies still seem a bit Dark
Know that Love will find a Way
And a whole new Adventure we now Embark
The Universe is with us on Raising this New Day

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..
