A Passionate Journey

Animosity

Today I dreamt of life on earth
And I boarded a train ready for the world.
Descending on the streets where the sky is scraped
And the crowds collect.
Confused and alone I try to find my way.
My heart beat as I chased
My life through the street.
Walk with me.
Cold world,
Embrace me
Because I am lost in the chaos
And I feel all alone.
Nothing to call my own.
I fell in love today
And it was the best thing I ever felt.
No more confusion about who I am
Because this is who I want to be.

I woke up with a purpose
And I laughed back at the crowds
Drowning in modern bullshit.
I planted a tree in front of my home
And I can no longer see out of my window
But it makes me smile just to watch it grow.
And I opened my eyes
To the beautiful things that make my world spin around.
Today I heard that another hundred men were killed.
Many people joined me in dismay
And we crowded the streets.
Today everything was taken from me,
Stripped down to nothing but a bag of bones.
Today I ripped out my heart out
Of my chest and I stamped it into the earth.
My face turned to raw bone
And I danced with the stars.
And the pages stopped turning in my passionate journey.
They just couldn't tame him.
