Poised Yet Lost

This world
Feeding on shameful subservience
And abundant of the dark element-
That is radical assumption
Harmony,
A word that's kept closely,
In the confines of my heart

Shun progression
Have faith in emotion
As it cannot be learned
Expression is meaningless if
What we live for is left behind
So many swimming the lost cause for sense

A systematc trance
Parting forever it lingers
Barricading the tears it is
Waking the dormant meaning

A change
More than aesthetic
As the skin is nothing
Compared to souls' pulses of oasis

Rolling out of the clouds
We scar of the poison we've become
Degrading to rocks of impenetrable mind
As so many walk
With no brightly burning radiance to see
Grasping on wax dripping away

But our shadows
Will always remember as they cannot be touched
As every seed,
On our path is to home
Like a road to serenity
A trail to sincerity and compassion
The will and direction to climb up,
To identity

Author notes

This world is full of heartless people. Where is sense, where is compassion?

    excellent

    I always wonder what makes some people heartless. Is this something they want? Is it something they've been taught? So many unanswered questions crying for answers. I think this is well spoken Roti. You have a heart that speaks out for answers to questions many of us have echoed. One day may we find the answers. I like this very much. Inspirational and courageous. Brian

      Thanks Brian, I've just been so sickened from the bureaucracy in everyday life. Its in everything and people tend to forget common sense and good heart. So simple, yet so complex. Some people, like in gov. for example, forget about the human element and passion and merely what is good, for pure crap which annoys me to bits. People are turning to robots, sounds strange, but very true.
