Living Within Myself

“Evil thoughts keep running through my mind. Wonder how to make you feel the pain that’s mine.”
     “Caught up in life like I’m looking at a flashing camera. Never thinking twice, and let my actions get the better of... me.”
    “Our should I say us and this life we have made. Given the fruits of life, and we still manage to make lemonade.”
        “Bitter and sour never anything sweet. Still holding our heads up never accepting defeat.”
    “Put our hands together and we begin to pray, with no honor for our father, so pretend again to play.”
     “This shameful game, I can’t explain all the lives lost along the way.”
  “Joining the navy or the army trying to be all I can be. Coming home every night with hungry mouths to feed. Check the cupboards check the fridge... we ain’t got nothing to eat. I’m so hungry I mean famished my kids look to me for hope. I work hard but still can’t manage to keep myself afloat.”
      “Can you please, how bout you, please anybody spare some change. I’m on the streets with no home having war flash backs again.”
   “Are you listening to the news do you see the heartache. Another mother has lost a child, and six more were lost today.”
     “Wait... is it....do you see. The light at the end off this is the way it’s supposed to be.
I feel a jerk then hear a noise I’m snatched back to reality.”
     “Think about all the people that i met through my journey. Then i stop and think wait....All of them are me”
