A drought in connection,
Starving for truth
The threat of conformity
depriving the youth
A dry hunger,
A thirst for what’s past
An explosion of thoughts
saturating too fast
In a city of chaos,
tricksters appear
An assassin to siphon the conscious
left in utter darkness to fear
Suffocated by righteous opinions
either by companion or foe
The lines blur into oblivion
distorting the right way to go
Barricaded—
beneath a web of lies
Sincerity—
finds a place to hide
A tip toe through the strain of clout…
The memory of escape left in doubt…
Yet—
A step beyond the comfort of familiarity,
Past an unfixed barrier guarded by uncertainty..
A faint glimmer of hope will shine
A place where souls will transcend time
