Just

Just sounds write
Looking for light yet I'm found by night
Thoughts collect like dust alone in my room
Hope lingers though some is swept out by jealousy's brooms
A crowd is prison
We all have a mission
We all have a soul but not all of us are living
And I can't be heard unless something higher tells you not to listen
May the pages I turn single out my freedom
Tell me what good is a book formatted by demons
I am still life some just chase money
Hard to come by but easily taken from me
Nothing but my mind's engines humming
Burning hate so I get out and leave them running
Afraid of smiles so I take off running yet I go nowhere
Funny how the majority always wants to go there
My emotions travel along my distant thoughts though in park
Some have thick skin but mine is covered in bark
May my prayers cover all even those that wickedly mention me
Branches  graze my window unintentionally
Forced by random breezes
Love is truly failing due to the many lessons that pain teaches
I wonder about the fallen while I'm standing on my feet
Who needs friends unless they in need we barely speak
I once drew a picture of my daughter
I wish kids these days didn't have to picture their father
Technology getting better but the world getting harder
So close to my dreams but my life's seems to be farther
The clock constantly moves and ticks as if its daring my pen to keep up
Seems like people that mean the most always leaving us
The kids play upstairs and their thumps are like speed bumps to my flow
I sigh out of frustration but then I just let that go
I love peace but there's a war in me
I'm wounded in parts but only God can conquer me
Truth is everyone has a heart in the beginning broken because another reached
What I thought was only in my grasp in these sheets
Materials are so seductive I think we all got a crush
Its a relationship when we touch
The question that causes defiance is it religion or is it science
So many instruments for accomplishments that play triumph
The challenges that sometimes rewind or repeat
But I go on and form life's beat
