The Cosmos of all souls

The Cosmos of all souls

A Poem by Grey Evanescent
"

just a lyric that went inside this sometimes-empty head

"
Sitting on this chair
I look out the window...
what do I see?
(I see myself)

Watching trees burn down
through this transparent glass,
I see myself
(killing me)

They say it's enough
to wake up in the morning
but when I open my eyes,
I see more reasons to be grieving.

I dipped my fingers on the calm lake
Rippling my reflection.
What did I see?

I say I saw an angel
dripping blood,
fallen grace.


But I saw nothing,
just a reflection
of a passing life.
-
a useless bullet
of a dying man


You see,
to destroy nature
does not only mean
to obliterate our future
but
it also means
erasing our past
leaving nothing
but the
unfinished
ignorant
present

Thanks for the review girl :)
Very good message for all to remember,life is the world we live on.We die,she'll survive without us.Carrying a better place engulfing new life and forgetting about mankind.
