“Thought needn’t become action should it make the world a worse place to be.”
Nature abhors a vacuum,
Voids created daily with bullets and bombs,
Souls preemptively taken from the world,
Consciousness swirls around black holes unfurled.
Lessons learned as children,
Footprints of joy and fear,
Forging what will come tomorrow,
Unspoken struggles of absence and sorrow,
Fear plants the decaying seed,
Silent ruin of hidden worlds,
Destroying ourselves within,
Slowly exposed and labeled as sin.
But the power to destroy,
Also becomes strength to rebuild,
Let us abandon self-erasure,
No more emptiness need be filled.
Love this; and great title!
This is very good. 💜
