Sunny Day
Pregnant
woman at the door
Watching
others wanting more
Same
tricks tried inside this tomb
Child
writhes inside the womb
Child
cryin’ in a church pew
Frustrates
many comforts few
Mothers
blush for the mother
Fathers
rush they can’t be bothered
But
there’s a…
Sunny
Day
Life
can seem so far away
Recalling
life, takin’ life away
Blind
man tryin’ to find relief
Child
mocks the blind man’s grief
Life
grinds life expires
The
man finds peace the child tires
Young
boy running across the street
An
old man talkin’ to his feet
Tryin’
to get them to cooperate
Cursed
by life & blessed by fate
Man
stands tall because of difference
And
he falls translated hindrance
Labels
hemmed inside our sleeves
Hatred
stems from jealousy.
Middle
aged problems never seen
By
the young lost in their dreams
Scathe
the grain, precede to fade
Confront
the pain, dreams find the shade
Sick
man lyin’ in his coffin
Needs
help dying coughin’
Confusion
talkin’ or is this fear
Walkin’
away footsteps he hears
A
man with a badge stands up for me
With
a false sense of identity
A
lifetime spent security
Caught
in his grip I writhe free.
