Ditched           4/6/2016

It all happens

Before you know it

The rug pulled out

And you are alone.

But if you survived it once

Then you have nothing to fear

Because the world has always hated

The enlightened

And exploited the deluded.

What is a reputation

If you have told the truth

And what is money

If you lost it all before.

What is shame

Once you have bled

And what is betrayal

When they left you for dead.

This world is nothing

Doomed and dried out

A hollowed out husk

Prime for burning.

We did not know

And we stumbled in a stupor

Thinking that if we were good enough

We should give a little more.

But now we know

And now we can see

How much we lost

And what is in store.

It will never be enough

Because evil always wants more

Growing in the dark

Like a disease.

Man is sick

And this world

It is dying

Shaking under the strain

Of iniquity and lies.

Today its big enough

That only a fool

Will not see

Those condemned to darkness

Willfully evil

And full of hate.

Opposite of a lie

Is what you see every day

The truth outright

Straight as a razor.

Let them cut

If they must

But stand strong in truth

Saved in life

And saved if dead.
