Worldly Desire XV: Last

Surreal
Everything is in the past
a time when we all lived in a blast
Seemed like an everlasting dream
a scar that bled so fast, so unreal
A change that fastened my life
to society; an unpredictable cast
to boundaries; now question me

Is it an alright dignity
or is the fire a lie?
Are we airtight refugees
or does the land forbid ties?

For there is no destruction until we rise
to desire a life so great, so free
Live with one another, through our youths and truths
for we persist when the battle glows and flows
Without a brutal war, there can be no light
for we will never truly comprehend our might
The body is a canvas; the heart is a leech
A resolution never forms until we screech
like a bloated toad; like a weeping flower
all are metaphors of an overwhelming power
A snake's unwilling duty is our responsibility
for we will not hide our sacrificial pride
for everything is due to pride and pretense
for we are many until we peel pretense

This is the end of the world
Hold our hands and bring us through life
for we have no guide other than pride
for we will not strive if not for our hive
for we may just die from our okay lies
for we cannot bite if we're always alright

Our hunger for the world
Our hunger for desires
Our memories of the past
will forever last.

- End
