Words Unspoken

Roselyn

Money

Power 

Glory

that is the goal right?

right?

perhaps not

perhaps it is finding what you love most

and giving your dying breath for it

what if it is about seeking your passion

and giving up everything you know for it

unapologetically 

or what if it is the smile on your little sisters face

looking up at you with so much hope

that same hope you would see slowly flicker from your own eyes

reborn in new small green eyes

before the world has bit its teeth so deep in yet

perhaps it is the tear you wipe from your best friends face

the heartbreaking glance, as if the tears has made her eyes like glass

her dark eyes, that whisper

where have they gone?

true pain, that you yourself have felt many times

because life can be so unforgiving

cruel really

...

but life, it can also be beautiful too

it allows us to feel

to touch

emotion

sensation

Alive

if that is what we are

so i ask you, lover

is 

Money

Power

and Glory

truly the point after all?
