Today

Contributed by spider on Wednesday, 3rd May 2006 @ 02:20:33 PM in AEST
Topic: Suicide



today the world will really live
the deaf will hear the joys of sound
the blind see spectrums, rainbows,
a swirling haze of colour in the sky

today is the day the Gods walk out
the day the mutes will scream and shout
the crippled will dance and turn in the rain
and feel the air rushing across their bodies as they run.

today police will respond to young rape victims
and pedophiles will not be released from prison
drug dealers will not be rewarded
and politicians will be honest

today people will respect each other
people will not be pushed in the street
or their homes. or on the floor of a public toilet.
people will not be betrayed or lied to

today people will love each other dearly
never hurt their love or cheat on their love
or rape their love or beat their love
people will hold onto each other for dear life and never let go.

today i will die and all my dreams will be enternal.

sounds like the perfect world....well aside from the last line. World's not perfect and i doubt it ever will be and i'm sure everyone here can relate to you're anger. Just hold on in there, behind all the evil is good and beauty....somewhere out there
