addressing the static state of mind
Public lock your doors
open your stereotypes
load the gun and fire upon us
will it bring peace to your doubts
knowing that our voices lay silent six feet under
will it be the day of reckoning when you lay next to me
when nothing is shared but the darkness and dirt
if we walk again will it be different?
are we just flies stuck on the opposite side of the spider web
in a repetitive cycle till we lie together again in time
how long are you willing to wait neighbor?
until we seal the casket of difference and engrave our last words in stone
will we finally be ready to rest our bones
knowing nothing but the days we've owned
the hourglass sits alone
embrace me neighbor no words of hate spoke here
cry your tears in this moment of clarity
with our eyes open souls at peace
before we blink.
