What Never Was and Never Will Be

Something dark and intrinsic

Speaking words to a roughed up soul

Waiting for another ball or shoe to drop

From such an unsuspecting hand.



Swearing upon an unforsaken soul

For a feeling that is meant to be.



Gone is the liar

Tainted flesh thrown upon the pire

Flames extinguished

Behind sleepless bloodshot eyes.



Can you take a breath?

Another single minute

To uncompromise

What we are?



As humankind, in our very nature

The majority choose to live

When a broken few

Wish to die.



It's that black thing

The evil we all harbor inside

Beat it back to submission just to live

Struggle until you have nothing else to give.



What is to come will be decided

When you stop trying to fight this

Embrace and build upon what you are.



Only then will you see,

The uselessness of that dark fog

It tries to control your every move and simple word.



What is unseen is that the beholder

Can rid one's self of the catalyst

One for unending pain and grief that's suffered

Soon you will no longer dwell upon or even see

What Never Was and Never Will Be.
