Gunfire

History told in tears
telling tales of hurt and sorrow
blaming pain on empty fears
was it all really this hollow?

My veins still filled with pain
Your done, your words, your guilt
So often forgotten in your drain
Your mind is always adrift

Lured into believing
To see sides of an utopia
Filled heart wanders in dreaming
Past forgotten, left out in dystopia

Mind open, soul renewed
Lasting feelings to keep alive
Signs of change slowly brewed
Why are you hiding out of sight?

Lessons of a life filled with hope
Now show the truth of that troubled mind
Can’t he really feel loved?
Is he really this blind?

My heavy heart slowly retires
Filled with sadness and disbelief
I spotted ease but found gunfire
Leave the dead, my dear
It’s about time you grieve.
