Nightmares


fuck right it’s a crisis!  
the wasted life gains nothing  
poor looks better than a living death  
terrible horrific accident  
kids knowing hurt from birth  
having to see their world demolished  
everyday a mother, everyday a sister  
having to morn while trying to keep themselves alive  
how can prayers be so denied?  
tragic how the privilege ignore this  
they rather forget and let die!  
 
I dream of houses, I dream of fantasies  
I live in nightmares, but comatose is my escape  
disease everywhere, eating my life too short  
can’t be remembered when everyone I know is gone!  
is gone!, is gone!  
from hell to heaven
 
 
drinking water looks like mud  
food is whatever we can scrounge up  
love has no meaning  
not when you’re treated worse than animals  
how can the rich be so mighty?  
only ever feeding their own greed  
meaningless martial and vanity  
what I wouldn’t give to be so clueless  
and just forget this world of pain!  
 
I dream of houses, I dream of fantasies  
I live in nightmares, but comatose is my escape  
disease everywhere, eating my life too short  
can’t be remembered when everyone I know is gone!  
is gone!, is gone!  
from hell to heaven
 
  
I say goodnight  
it’s too cold to survive  
a wasted life that never stood a chance  
tormented soul who only wished to be loved  
my dreams are now a joke  
to those that have everything, it’s all just a joke!

Author's Note
This is an edit of a older poem of mine. When I wrote it I wanted to give a voice to those that don’t have one. The ones that grew up knowing only hell.
