The World at Large

  The descending sun spooks me, As it reminds me of impending doom. The fate of the world hanging on  the joker wearing the crown. A game of deceit and endless conspiracies, Rigged to make the hidden emerge strong. ‘Come one come all’ The sign bellows. Not one peasant decided to enjoy the menu. They are sinking to fall in their own broken ship. All towing to head into the dark abyss. We enjoy playing the game when it is, Someone else who’s head will twirl if they miss. But when the trigger loads and the target is us. When the bullet wants to grab hold on us. We run so far, without a hitch. We run to never stop to check. What happened to those who tried to save us? What happened to the joker who longs for love? What happened to the magician, is he still sick? The old man, next door, did he get his tip? The world of our species amuses me. To see the world move by so cheap. The moon is now out. It winks at me. The stars shining bright following me. The world beyond our species, Fascinates

Yourself...

And yes, it's not easy. It was never meant to be.
It takes time, patience and great care to get back on your feet.
I know you can do it, I know you have it in you...
You just need a light spark to ignite the inferno that is going to burn in you.

It's gonna end soon,
this war with yourself
Life will welcome you on its own soon.
As long as you keep rebuilding yourself.

The monsters will die down.
Their screams will be anguished.
Their molten cages will be hard to break again
and light will finally find you in your dark abyss.
