The sheer disrespect of this

To disregard and feign bliss

I listened to the movement

Now I’m stunned to silence

Claim to love it, unconditionally

But boast resent with charmless ease

What seems to get overlooked

Is this is not compulsory

This isn’t who we are

Lost in the lines in between

Your bitterness in this business

A hate supreme and merciless

Pierce with distaste to watch it bleed

Romanticizing misery

This league is bred to criticise

And now we watch it multiply

Fail to resist intrigue in interest

Detonate the illusion of affluence

This sunrise brings entitlement and we fight to earn it

All is not lost for this lost art

Though it’s forged with lukewarm sentiment

When all else is laid out to rest

How dare I dare to demonstrate?

What was beloved is now waste

Grieving the death of easier days

Against dominating waves

Laboured breath forcing it to wake

Call control on what you did not create

Reduce this weight before we sink

Revive and reverse, resist and return

Conquering my despair

The true prevalence of passion
