And Maybe... Poem by Vision Ghost

And maybe I do ponder on such continual thoughts
Before I consider the next random psychotic image
And maybe I could be some kind of new found god
Before worship of every word to kill their classmates

And maybe I question which god it is you worship
Before they burn in the streets of flaming effigies
And maybe I can’t decide who it is I believe in
Before I discovered what is it for voter apathy

And maybe I didn’t support this war of evil politics
Before the fighter of a holy war removed his head
And maybe I could brutally murder a paedophile
Before they accuse me of taking a lesser of two evils

And maybe I should choose to never love again
Before I conclude it’s only ever brought me pain
And maybe I should take a sharp blade to my wrist
Before I realise I can’t get past the stinging cuts

And maybe I should rest my head and wish for death
Before I experience of sleep is as close I’ll ever get
And maybe I should have another nervous breakdown
Before I conclude I felt so safe in hospital that time

And maybe I cannot take much more of this world
Before I realise I’ve actually too much to live for
And maybe I should text a friend who is out there
Before I realise they seldom if ever do text back

And maybe I am so exhausted I cannot condone
Before another word is uttered before some sleep
And maybe I might dream tonight of somewhere
Before I awake again the next day, another spent
