Words To Remember Poem by Ace Of Black Hearts

Words To Remember



Beautiful words, oh such beautiful words.
Calling out, reaching out for someone, for anyone just to know you're not alone.
Fighting the good fight.
As it is described.
As it is prescribed.
The daily dose of medicine to help me get through this.
Sometimes, oh sometimes I wonder.
Is this body even mine, or is it just a lone from some higher power.
And I quiver as it starts to get weaker.
I was a vampire but now the blood is losing its effectiveness.
Another cane field set a blaze.
And like the rodents of like kind and like mind I'm looking for my escape.
Losing all my sensations, from taste to touch.
Whats left isn't much.
Breathing through some tubes.
Being told this life isn't for you.
Knowing given a fair chance you could do much better.
Out of time and going out of your mind.
Becoming a dusty old book put high on a shelf behind others.
Hidden from veiw never to be picked up or read again.
Once forgotten can we once again remember?
Helpless to the will of others.
Compasion an empathy becoming more and more old fashioned.
Just another prositute hooking on the street.
Never mind how she got there.
Who even cares.
She is selling her wares like we all do.
But the question is why does she even have to?
A life that isn't free.
Endebted slavery.
Burn it all down.
It was never that met to be.
An over indulgence in sympathy.
It does not help, it does not even carry the day.
Pity is for those who have already given up.
Just scream change it, if you want it bad enough, if you think this life is too rough.
Make sure your loud enough that no one can hide from the decidance.
Victims of the onlookers haunting eyes.
The nothingness shouldn't be a suprise.
It is the way it has always been.
The greed continues the feed this endless machine.
If you looking for the guilty, it lies in our very own silence.
The moment you had a chance to speak, and said nothing.
Thats when things got so much worse.
