Rose coloured glass

Shunted by words and interactions
I however, remain firmly grounded towards my actions

Slowly i reminice at times when "Thank You" and "Your Welcome" were accustomed towards those who saw the need and necessity

I stand and observe, baffled, at the gears that drive desire and self gratification.
And forgotten will those remain who bleed in the light of egos and power

I hold my heart as the thought of us is lost
Me and You who matter
Me and You who suffer
We are lost
We are now seen as commodities used to negotiate a matter that loses us

I bleed internally as the work done and consciousness created is misguided as the face dies
Who befits a journey paved with anarchy and envy
What qualifies extremities brought on by predominate states of minds
Hypocrisy ever so lightly released into the air
Pulling the tides together frequently hoping to create a storm laced with deceit and secrecy

I remain humbled throughout as I pave myself a road governed by knowledge and strengths  only generated by wise words and positive experience
I remain assertive as I hold true what is permanently the soul cause of my existence
