Subject: Thoughts

Thoughts

thoughts stir in my head
dark feelings of dread
I try to stop them
but still self condemn

can I have a valid mission
with no passion or ambition
I ask what purpose I serve
or do I merely just observe

daily battles with worth
what do I offer this earth
am I part of the problem
from inside it may stem

I hurt no one at all
but do I help if they fall
my sanity is in peril
soul held over a barrel

so afraid to step out
I whisper don't shout
does anyone listen
as my tears glisten

chaos all around me
I pray on bended knee
please give me strength
to walk the full length

I walk on trembling legs
past the man that begs
I look into his eyes
hear his deep sighs

no one listens to him
his future looks grim
but its not my concern
I think as I turn

I hear a child calling
she looks so appalling
"Daddy I'm hungry"
it makes me so angry

how could I walk by
and ignore her cry
so cold and cruel
I've been such a fool

I am but one person
but can't let this worsen
I can make a choice
I do have a voice

I can make a change
so words I exchange
I offer some compassion
I see his face ashen

he broke down and cried
said his wife had just died
they lost all they own
out here all alone

I got involved today
they have a place to stay
she slept with no pain
not out in the rain

I saw someone fall
I did hear them call
I do have some worth
a reason on this earth

I want my voice heard
passion to be spurred
help your fellow man
I did......so you can
