NOT UNDERSTANDING

We pass our lives,
Not understanding,
The meaning of life,
Not understanding.
We walk miles
For small reasons,
Not understanding.
We work so hard,
To get better,
Just to die,
Leaving it all behind,
Still not understanding.
We buy them all gifts,
To earn them,
When we know,
We will lose them,
Not understanding
We continue,
Smiling,
Working,
Living,
Breathing,
And not understanding
Pinned up photographs
What colour is the wall
Behind all the memories?
Painted with times,
With you and friends
With the family.
The story never ends,
So many memories,
We hold so dear,
But so many photos
Not up there ,
On my wall.
Hidden away
From those days,
That you remember most,
But haunt you like a ghost.
The ones,
You want to forget,
But never can

So many words
Meant to be spoken
But so many words
Broken,
Because of fear
Enchantment
Lost in the sky
Tears fill your eyes
Felling so alive
Into the stars dive
The moon will drive,
You crazy
Crazy for rainbows
Where sun and rain goes
Its throws
Its beauty at you
Fixed eyes
To the sky's
Devastation is overwhelming
Hunger spreading
Families lost
Diseases gained
Cold nights
Hot days
With no shelter
And much death.
Poverty,
IS the hardest cancer to treat
Existence is bearly there
She is unnoticed
Hand never reaches out
Keeping to herself
Always
Invisible
Intoxication fills your body
Depending on it for happiness
Smoke fills your lungs
Depending on it for happiness
One more sip
One more inhaling of poison
One more pill
One more disappointment
Still depending in it
For happiness
