Poltergeist of Perseverance

“Living when living matters most”
Profound statement when living like a ghost
Death, in fact, will be my redemption
Freedom finally given from the palace of conception

              Burn it down, Burn it down
              Reverse world’s turn ‘round and ‘round
              Make them speak without a sound

I don’t die a physical death
I simply kill my wasted breath
Away with the greed and stupid self-pity
No more normality; entering my own inner city

Fuel the blaze, Fuel the blaze
Only truth will stop this craze
I trust this brings better days

Birth today will bring peace tomorrow
The world is mine; I have no need to borrow

    I am so incredibly glad to see tha you are back. It makes me very happy (: Aside from that...this poem is wonderful...it is exactly how I feel and have been feeling lately.I could almost hear the words being sung. Very song like. It flows so well together and it speaks to me. Amazing. Great job my friend. You as well, never cease to amaze me. Thank you so much for sharing, for continuing to write. I say 'amen' to second chances and the will to change. Best of luck with that and best wishes. <3
