Today, we are all wounded, we are scared, lonely, depressed.

It drives many men and women crazy and leads them to do horrible things. It is the confusion, what do we do next? It is the question of right and wrong that divides us and destroys us. Perhaps, you should focus on the cries of a war widow, a starving kid in Africa, family of a kid that died in bombing or merely a sulking teenager who never got any warmth from his/her parents. The root to all that is bad and evil, also the root to all that is beautiful and amazing is inside of us only. We, just like coins have two faces! Only, this coin flip is not a gamble, but a conscious choice! So why not stir it towards the light?
A black mirage unfolding itself
engulfing us in it.
A wrath unknown, unseen, upon us,
taking shapes, taking forms, undeniably convenient, such is it's trap.
Sorcery of the highest kind,
emerging from the deepest pits that is our soul.
Nothing that we see, nothing it is that we say.
Is it fear or is it foolishness that we standby today?
What is it that guides our actions?
Many say we act out of love,
others out of despair, destitution, destruction.
A faith too, that we blindly follow!
They say I'm a believer, I fear god.
What god is it that asks you to kill,
What god is it that renders a heart without love,
What god stands against an innocent?
Or perhaps, agony becomes us,
Cold and malicious,
It twists and turns, feeding upon our darkest, damaged parts
A dementor it is truly, eating us till we are left nothing but a hollow shell of a person.
But is that all to us?
What defines you?
Is it loathing, hatred or fear?
Or do we commit crimes in name of love?
What would the world be like if what drove us was empathy,
or even a spoon full of compassion!
What would world be like if we spoke more as 'we' than 'I'
What would it feel like to have a family of millions,
each soul filled with light and warmth.
All it takes is to resist the darkness,
resist that part that seems convenient,
that selfish ghoul
If only it could be so, we would see it all, and say everything ❤
