sufi keeps going
Woke up to tunes of mortified screams and unshakeable views As the sun appears for a brief second, I can hear an An angel cry of mercy and love But atlas the sun was covered by the clouds of the Feared And so I walked away with a little hope Down to the streets, I was mugged and pierced I yell aloud to life, "Why am I still alive I am nothing to Father time and mother nature tells me I should die But yet life grabs me by surprise and makes me wake up to the most unspeakable frights I tried to make it to school on time Education won't help me if my mind Ties me up inside, suffocating the feelings that I hide. But down the street, I went Wept on the floor I spent I see for a brief second a Rose So red and vile So imposed by life's denile Towards the rose I go The sight was quite a surprise The smell of sweet dew was in the air i I stared at the rose that glowed From the concrete, it grew How fun how new Over joyed by the sight I cried. How can this still be alive ? Something didn't feel right It stained my brain How can such a beauty Grow out of a place so insane ? Great minds come from great pain - anyomous poet
