See No Evil

The siren screams by,
As another innocent begins to die,
His heart still beating,
His life force fleeting,

As I walk through the valley,
Of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil,
For it all seems evil, every breath,

We dream of an end,
Of a force which might save us,
Books are written, films directed,
But the devil inside, sits, ready to enslave us,

Our lives have been made captive,
To immature dreams of greatness,
We scream for a utopian world,
Yet we can’t fathom being selfless,

“If I had the power,
I would kill all that is bad”,
But have you ever stopped to think,
That perhaps it is you is truly bad,

We have so much,
And yet it seems so little,
The warm milk and dirty knives,
And purple clad men playing the fiddle

A smile hides the pain behind,
Oh what we would give just to rewind,
And if we rewound,
Starting anew,
Would it really be different?
Would we then have a better clue?
