Intertwining Lives
A life of secrets,
A life of lies
When all you know is torn away
And you're faced with the reality of a world you helped create.
When staying means building upon your lies
And leaving means trying to change them for the better
But also abandoning the family you once knew.
This life is lonely
This life is lost
This life needs a home
A life of wandering
A life of questions
When you won't call it a life because you're more machine than man
When your life revolves around the accident and you isolate yourself
Because living among people makes you recognize your differences
And staying away keeps them hidden under a layer of thoughts
Overwhelming
Complicated
Cold
Scientific
Empty
Thoughts
This life is lonely
This life is lost
This life needs a home
A life born and raised in war
A life of burning anger
When you're faced with your deepest fears
And the bottomless pit filled with anger
Is not deep enough to save you
From yourself
When trust must be learned
Because you went to the wrong school of thought
This life is lonely
This life is lost
This life needs a home
A life of conflict
A life of unrelenting control
When the secrets you held back from those you trust
May destroy you from the inside out
When fear becomes a constant companion and your
Only solace
Is to stand in the rain and bleed out your sins
Because you are a living sin
An anomaly,
An outcast,
Different
This life is lonely
This life is lost
This life needs a home
These lives exist in a fallen world
The victim of greed
The children of this age of ash
Come from two crops
The twisted
Gnarled
Mindless Monsters
Who lack humanity,
Taken from them by the dark cloud of ash
And reformed to mindless violence
The survivors
Dirty
Determined
Scared
Fighting to stay alive
In the new world order
Clinging to humanity by the skins of their teeth
Living in these times change is not a welcome thing
But maybe it can be accepted
In the form of a third
And a new world order along with it
