Too much damage,
Too much invasion,
Has killed the prospect,
Of hope for sensation,
This road doesn’t contain,
Positive revelations.
I’ve been blinded for so long
By all the frustration,
It is way too late,
To repair the relation,
And no good solutions,
To solve the situation.
Hate is your fall,
And revenge my temptation,
No one else is to blame,
For our own creation,
So let’s cut the bullshit,
And drop all expectation.
I’ll make a choice here,
To reduce the complication,
Avoiding the trap
Of cold calculation,
For there’s no relief there,
Down at the next station.
So here it is,
My elimination:
No more arguing,
No more speculation,
No more hope,
Or further explanation.
THE END

There is a battle that never seems to end taking place inside us. The crimes of evil abhor and enrage us, tempt us continuously to seek revenge. This is what they want in those they cannot directly defeat; to elude them in situations and become like them - the dark spawn. Being evil or becoming evil is made easy, staying compassionate and continuing to help the weary and weak is extremely difficult. Your conclusion to rather die than comply with the dark is the extremis of our battle against evil. I enjoyed reading this powerfully expressed thought.

Intense and in a way so true of the current world situation and idiot world leaders viewpoints.

I agree, a very thought provoking write C. Like Lisa said so many U turns in our lives that we are unaware of. I have made many U turns in my life too, some of them full circle. But now I am on the straight road to my destination. Next stop...womanhood. Thanks for sharing C. May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whim you love, and be with you always, and at your sdie constantly. With much love in my heart, maybe too stubborn for my own good, joy to the world peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your still very sad and very terrified little sister, Barbie

There is lots of U-Turns in life, and most of them were made without even our knowledge of doing so.
We sort of slip and slide through the bullshit, but when we are done we stand up, wipe it off and keep on going.
Excellent thoughts in this one.
