The Creeping Darkness Pt.3: The Unforgiving World

Growing up enclosed in a shell
Encaged and protected only knowing the stories your parent's tell
Waking up to each morning with a sweet smell each time one steps outside
Though not every individual really has such privelage

The grass and sky are bright and fresh in your eyes
Innocent faith also resides not knowing of the world the other side
You go to school following the rest learning also a golden rule
At least some of these children learn these things

Life is like a two sided coin for depending on where you are
Determining what it means to you
But to tell one the truth for each day one lives they also die
As the creeping darkness of the unforgiving world hangs one to dry

Maybe not for all the first 10-20 years of their life but eventually in all to live means to die and many have faith that in dying they may live.
Others to live is to have fun, to drink and be merry, to indulge in selfish desire.
Though honestly you may be living the way you want you also still die.
As each day you have fun other things will pass you by.

Better oppurtunites, choices, and such can lead to a different kind of life.
In the end still is it not destructive to follow ways of the creeping darkness of the unforgiving world?
Over time do you get lost in a fantasy that is destrutive not only to yourself but others around?
Only to become a prisoner in chains bound and lost and empty at a cost.
