Waking Up
Fruitless sleep
Wake-less ignorance
Like running from time
Or digging the sky
Emotionless, motionless
Resting blissfully, awoken bitterly
To realize we have experienced ears
And virgin hearts
To never feel like this before
To be re-booted
The zest of being refreshed
and fitted with new shoes
To sleepwalk for so long
and stumble through the night-
how humbling the light
I turn my face with hand upraised
overwhelmed by the rays of truth
That illuminate injustice
Squinting my eyes
Then when forcing them open
I'm incensed
My fist now clenched
Hangs in the air
As a beacon for those that follow
Lady liberty, no torch
We suffer violence
And the violent take it by force
Wake-less ignorance
Like running from time
Or digging the sky
Emotionless, motionless
Resting blissfully, awoken bitterly
To realize we have experienced ears
And virgin hearts
To never feel like this before
To be re-booted
The zest of being refreshed
and fitted with new shoes
To sleepwalk for so long
and stumble through the night-
how humbling the light
I turn my face with hand upraised
overwhelmed by the rays of truth
That illuminate injustice
Squinting my eyes
Then when forcing them open
I'm incensed
My fist now clenched
Hangs in the air
As a beacon for those that follow
Lady liberty, no torch
We suffer violence
And the violent take it by force
