Fragile Society

A tampered soul, battle ready, steel hardened

But couldn't be saved by the dark tides

That swallow up the pride

That was left behind from another's eyes

Terribly written in the night sky

Drowning from something that couldn't be finished

Anger, hate, trouble, coincidence, pattern

All because you couldn't see the other side

Of this painful past, present and future


Doubt ridden fears

Pain riddled hearts

Fragile egos damaged


No one truly understands

Why this generation was left behind

To fend for themselves within this

Troubled world

Left there defenseless

From their unbridled homes


Dismembered hearts, tattered souls, demolished dreams

No words can explain the imagery left behind

After something no one knew was coming

Even from what remains


No one can fix the heartless beings

Who refused to help those in need

A dog eat dog world

With so much to spare

Not even a blade of grass

Could be saved from this hellfire
