Hmmm

By Ocean of Truth

This bunker so cold
Segregated by mental barriers
             of opinions and standards

Yet the roots still cling to each other
      Grasping at the non-existant sustinence they crave

And these structures can only sustain
               So long against these overwhelming circumstances
Shockwaves and tremors
    Wreak havoc, amidst the calm

Drifting along this easy stream
              Coming deathly close
     To the waterfall ahead
