In the raindrops, and in the puddles in the street,
reflections of you, reflections of society,
yes, in them,
life goes by, often under far too heavy skies,
and life is never as light as it should be,
and in the raindrops, and in the puddles in the street,
reflections of you,
reflections of society,
society scrutinized,
society as it is, society as life goes by,
society passing quickly in the blink of an eye,
and my oh my, how rapidly life does fly,
far quicker than we would like,
and far less enjoyably than we would wish,
and how we rage against the unfairness of it all,
and how we get irritated that what we see and feel,
and get from life is not what we want at all,
and in the raindrops, and in the puddles in the street,
reflections of you,
reflections of society,
reflections of reality,
reflections of life,
and not always what we want,
but because of the reality of the time of our lives,
and the truth of life unfortunately,
far too often miserable faces are seen,
and money and love generally, are the causes of them all,
and the causes of suffering in society.
Ravaged
Ravaged by the mind,
ravaged both day and night,
memory loss,
forgetfulness,
intrusive thoughts,
contemplations,
ruminations and contemplations of suicide,
CPTSD,
irritations,
frustrations,
anger and rage,
CPTSD,
Oh, how I wish it would die,
how I wish it would go away, forever and a day,
but it never seems to happen unfortunately,
and all I can do is try my best to relax, and sigh.
