THORN

 

THORN

 

Bewilder mind disbelief, the stark reality,

Knows very well dusk to settle quietly,

Why, life thinks day never ends willingly,

Think deeply, night only a dream,

Steals awareness, instills sleep, lays limbs,

Forgotten name, place, identity, and faith,

Inert stays a symbol, non-existent unreal,

Wakes heart again sun rises probe past,

Why persist sun ever sink world was lost,

The name, street, city, or people the same stay,

How come vanished in the darkness play,

This life face strife play rife mistakenly a lot,

Every answer heart retort untrue night but,

Dream visits erase existence, purposes, love,

Open your heart spread wing, soar high,

Love unattainable mind injects addict fry,

Wrong is you, hypocrisy explicit display,

Sunset yesterday, night canopied darkness,

Rose, a beautiful moon if an angelic face,

Wash our heart silvery light cool thrilled,

Aroused passions lust ornate love creeper,

Wished infinite urge endless stay forever,

Burning bright mischief monger sun rises,

Wake up the most deluded rest of us hurt,

Love to live in another world, heavenly real,

Never know us, O' human, disbelieve exists,

Exist we live in darkness moon show path,

Spread happiness, joys profound, soul worth,

Mingle easily with stars winking starry night,

River projects silver plate we swim in delight,

Glowworms lighted our poem of love plenty,

Gardenia jasmine opens petals of love aroma,

We dance our sequence less identity gender,

Less we find name origin color blood splendor,

Body touches body unites ecstatic amorous,

Less hue and cry, molten heart  soaked in tears,

Felt separate bodies soul unites climax thief,

Not human pleasure thief visits in guise creator,

Stills everything our lust pleasure it dawns,

Living idols, we start playing with the sun,

Result of love, another generation is born,

Challenge our authority deletes, ever, night exists,

Under the sun, this generation frightens us,

Livid with our symphony less recognizes day,

Cry out angrily, hello, dark moon, why claim,

Not we belong to you guardians of the night,

Born us only lives  under the sun we see,

You are thin void unreal Lord gave breathe,

We breathe, alert, aware of identities numerous,

Built once roam now thousands still curious,

Love color of skin myriad tongue expresses,

Expression incredibly great slang credulous,

We believed our creator, not you, faithful,

Only to surrender under the sun spread,

As many paths that many fights carnage,

Know to rule under the sun, supreme savage,

Sold for gold unfold bravery, name, or fame,

Our tribes sing for an eon, our valor not game,

Spirit of the night thorn in our heart pierce,

One world, one people, one goal rehearse.
