:Unfailing Me:

By Deathkitten

Is it so difficult
to feel the energy
in such a strong force?
Could we match power
or should it stay unmatched?
Would you see deep inside
if it were deeper than the channel
or be fixed & stubborn
as always?
Judging every "mistake"
you feel we make
Observing the lifestyle
& our surroundings
Criticizing each word
that may slip through soft lips
in hopes to harden them
& the rest of us
Will you bury the flares?
Each & every desire?
Would you be happy
if I said I was the job
& you were hired?
Are the flutes & violins
in my darkness
so distant
that no ear may hear?
Would anything ever be
so unfailing
in order to appease?
May we be self-renewing
through passing years
& generations
or must we bow down
in falseness & irritation?
I cannot speak for the rest
but I ask not of you
or anyone
to be me
All I asked for
was room to breathe

Unfortunately it does seem that a tremendous amount of people look down on others for such superficial reasons.

    to me nothing is failing or unfailing... Everything happens for a reason. But i try to match the power with the power in order to be who i am that is just me. Judging others for who or what they are is never a good thing and should never be done. This makes the one feel like everything is just nothing and leads us to think that all love has left and will never be seen again. This isn't true but there is so much truth in the words you have penned through this. and the love never leaves we just hide it deep inside and fight to keep it from showing. Scholar

    I think alot of it is cause & effect, action & reaction, etc. No one should be judged, but it happens. Chaos & discouragement rises...*sigh* love can be difficult to feel in those times. Thanks, Nikki :)
