The Trouble in Life

When I see the trouble in this life,
I hang my head and sigh...
When I see the apocalytpic signs,
prepare myself for battle like
a warrior who resolves to stay and fight...
I sing my death song,
because I've been slowly dying all along.
All along...
When I see the trouble in this life;
the self righteous spite,
unblinking eye as innocent babies die,
the lack of third eyesight instead of beauty and light, and the fast setting sun approaching unending night..
I feel it isn't right....it isn't right!
Nothing is fair and only decisive
action can clear the stale air...
More and more people becoming aware
of the trouble in this life...
Too many folks just can't sleep at night
because of trouble in their lives...
For all the stress they strive thru strife
but its just a mountain made from molehills.
Scavenge the dry bones of an old kill;
Mental starvation testing no longer bold will...
Hold still... the trouble in this life
will make quick work of that...
Fight back! Tooth and nail....
Bite and scratch...at the trouble in this life...
Stab the lies with 10 inch knife!
The beast must die before the balances
and checks again are correct...
But as of yet... no ends left
for the man who comes to collect.
Disrespect....the trouble in this life...
Singing my death song....
Because it isn't right...

MizBlaze you are on fire with this one, and it is all so painfully true. But nobody said life was meant to be fair, we all have challenges and some challenges are harder than others. Still an excellent write.

i agree with the previous comment from abluesky, except the part of god. god fixes problems with apocolyptic events, or so the mythical tellings of this being say... its up to us to spread the word to those who are would-be turds. 98% they are, bolth wide and far. but its mearly our bodies that die, people like you and I. for when the time has come, and truth be done. its poeple like you and I who will stand tall, over all of those who are bound to fall. do not dispare, dont be sad. get even, get mad. for the world would be remade some will say, and for this day we wait and we pray. let them suffer, let them die, one thousand times, i wont cry. for the heedless and reckless have had thier time.

i love this poem .i would say this poem is from you heart and was created from the way you look the world to be ruling itself by some few others.you do say right things in your poem.and everybody that reads your poem have to agree with you about that.yet as a friend i fear for you for there is too much meaning in what u write and it is not only just a poem but u are preaching to the world.Good work and May Almighty God guide you.keep it up.i am with you.and i love it all.rate 100
