318. Never Surrender Your Heart

Published on 13 February 2023 at 22:05

Nobody wishes to die,

but nobody wants to live, either.

Within a zombified society, 

where passion has left the ether,

I stand before the fallen leaves,

that were once flourishing with life.

I stand before the long, forgotten dreams, 

that reach beyond our heaven’s light.

I stand before the unsettling memories,

the nightmares that haunt me,

on each dreadful night.

And I still fight, even if it kills me.

I still fight, even if I’m to die. 

My body may give up, 

but my heart will never surrender.

And until that day comes, 

I will live on forever.

I will live on in the memories, 

forgotten by the many,

And I will live on in the memories,

remembered by the few...

But they are all memories, too,

blended into a seamless reality,

and overlooked by a chaotic society.

I won’t allow myself 

to die inside this blender,

torn to pieces while trying 

to keep myself together.

I will escape the mass flood 

of a broken modern society, 

and build myself an ark, 

so that it won't consume me.

And I won’t let it consume you, either.
