Star Fall

Star Fall 12/11/2012

The world is full of poets
But the world has no heart
Nothing but an endless stream of childishness
That we have all heard before.

There is no one to blame
And there is no one to punish
Not for what we are
And not for where
We are going.

Getting angry doesn’t help
But giving in is worse
Because even an animal
Grows bolder
Whenever he senses fear.

There is no need to run
And there is no need to complain
Because the answer is as obvious
As the sun.

Look today and notice
What it is
That roams the street
And who it is
That murders.

Nothing can change
The truth outright
And mere words
Are nothing but a joke.

The silence says it all
Everything we should have known
A tacit form of approval
In accordance with their view.

At star fall
Everything will change
But it will be too late
For apologies
Or excuses.

The heavens shall shake
And fall upside down
As men run
And try to hide.

But the good have nothing to lose
And they have nothing to fear
Because without loss
There is no growth
And without an end
There is no beginning.
