A Day Like Any Other…
When the sky tells me
It is going to storm
It whispers it’s soft warning
As if not to frighten me away
Just like my kingdom
I have storms inside my soul
Wild and raging with emotion
Unpredictable and out of control
It is true that I am guarded
I am free but trapped by something else
An invisible force that is most wicked
Has stolen my every ability to trust
As the clouds darken above me
A message of what is to come
Like elements we cannot tame
There is nothing, I’ve come undone
I live in constant fear
When I look others in the eye
I’m looking for something decent and pure
So far, others have only made me cry
I still think the world is worth my time
But I keep searching for something that I don’t find
It’s more a dream, a wish, a belief
Than the reality of the world I may leave behind
It’s like we are all just empty shells
Walking around, in programmed motion
No one really has a functioning soul
We are weak if we show our deepest of emotion
