Unreal
May 19, 2012
Defensive eyes and lips like stone,
a whole world, a whole world alone!
With each word a reprimand,
a silent one, and a silent demand.
To each that I remind,
I send you this, refined.
An edited perfection,
An altered reflection.
Little darlings, do not, never do fear!
The death of night, the death of death is near.
Aghast, we stand, we somehow remain,
Still, look, remember this pain!
A battle to be fought, a war to be won,
no day, no life, no peace can forever run.
By God I tell you of His absence,
by myself I take heed of silence.
