Topic of the Week

Is this

Just the topic of the week

Another trend, so to speak

A picked up pulse or switched up beat

That covers up what you can’t keep?

It’s hard to stay at bay sometimes when shadows are so willing

To take you to that place you want, but timing’s just the shilling

It’s hard to see the plea sometimes when light is under cover

You’ll pay in full but blinded, say: “I only lost a dollar.”

Are you

Just in love with the thrill

Another high or way to chill

A way of life or coping still

That covers up what you can’t fill?

It’s hard to see the God in you, this World- it gives no mercy

On top of that, I trust in you that you just need to foresee

The hope you know will take you there without this dust that promises

Nothing but an unsolved mess that begs to halt this busyness

Was that

Just another way of covering

This emptiness that’s hovering

Or confusion that’s just smothering

Turning these things to nothing?

It’s easy to get caught in this- I’ve been engulfed myself

But I could not complete that book- I put it on the shelf

The information, I’d attack- like a child that was starving

And like that child, I would eat until I started barfing

Am I

A novice to this higher level

From this game that’s of the devil

Just a scrub that feels disheveled

Who knows quite little of this rebel?

It’s easy to assume that I am just as guilty

I do in fact have blood stains on my hands, so I am filthy

But is it strange that I have shifted my mentality

And out of that, I’ve seen a path… or maybe I’m just happy

Are we

Way too polar with what we preach

Indecisive with what we teach

Or just confused if we can reach

A reasoning to stop this speech?

Sometimes the only thing to do is take the hard

solution

And if that doesn’t register, then check what you’ve been doing

Journalists are masochists, their columns- full of hardship

So why succumb to poison by the switching of your topic?

Some burdens never lighten up.
