Struggling Humanity

Struggling Humanity

The shackles of this reality 
Don't bound the ones that already bleed 
As it's not made for prisoners you see 
But the ones that just ignore or don't believe 
  
A world were life is a fragile thing 
where an idea and a dream can co-exist 
Whenever something goes wrong or gets lost 
Nobody is really going to miss it 
  
As everything can be replaced 
One life for another as the earth is still fresh and warm 
One goal transferred into another person's mind 
While the soul of that person just carries on 
  
The shackles of this reality 
Connect us whenever we fall 
The ashes and the tombstones created as a memory 
Just a part of us seeking to control it all 
  
The raw emotions of sadness, hate and despair 
Trying to break through the air 
A bulletproof commitment, a stone-cold understanding 
or a flawless after thought 
To contain the happiness inside 
 
Which we all seek throughout life 
To loosen the shackles we all wield 
Suppressing whatever pain is hiding and stop the vision from blurring 
That’s constantly sickening, corrupting and changing people’s futuristic sight

Wow Roy, what an brilliant write. Deep complex ideas here, a lot to enjoy here.
I particularly like your lines 
'The shackles of this reality 
Connect us whenever we fall'
and
'Which we all seek throughout life 
To loosen the shackles we all wield'
i like that you used shackled to describe reality but also to describe the chains we keep ourselves in. Well done. Look forward to more. Sending love and light always ☀

:) thank you very much (I like to use alot of metaphors)

We are all bound here with shackles, because they keep us in the real world you know... they keep our both feet upon the safe ground, because if not we would always live in some kind of dream world were people will even experience more pain then they'll when just keep being realistic. Men and women may have dreams or wishes, but it's always best to not prioritize them sort of, because that will lead alot of times to disappointment. But we also cannot live without them, because otherwise you'll turn yourself in a very one dimensional person or like a grumpy one who doesn't have a purpose here or a single dream to follow and chase... with dreams you can loosen up the shackles, but removing them is the worst thing you can do to yourself. Some might feel like they are prisoners of this world, but people that share the same vision like me will never see themselves like prisoners, because we already experienced defeat or pain or even worse (they who already bleed)

My favourite quote recently is your heart is free, just have the courage to follow it. Because we are free, in our hearts and mind. We often keep ourselves prisoner in our own minds. Everything we love feel see is everychanging has already been and died. We are the observer. It can just take people longer to realize it. Loved it, keep writing ☺
