Poetry: Leave me alone

by Shawna Sutherland

Created on: October 26, 2008

Leave me sleeping breathless no more

a peace beyond peace

a spirit let free.

Let it be, let it be.

Don't try and change the course,

Leave me at my final destination.

Just walk away and leave me alone,

just as you once did many a times before.

Don't pretend to care I see right through your insincere smile,

I see a full hand of jokers...I have folded and left the game.

I never existed, you never knew my name.

Who am I, no one.

Just an essence who came and left, an angel sent here to teach

but no one eager to learn.

Line up the cattle one by one,

true individuals who aren't willing to conform,

are threats to society and banished to the killing floor.

No free thinkers allowed, only the aloof

pitiful fools they will never learn,

Just millions of clowns looking like goofs.

So quick to judge and jury another's life,

but ignoring the sin in one's own.

Throw a stone, spit at their feet anything to draw the attention away from one's self

enough so they can feel like they are good and pure,

this rare find is not a real find for they are holding fool's gold.

Little will they learn before its too late.

The end is no longer one day, the end is already here.

Many lives leaving blood on their hands, they will have to pay the ultimate price,

for their own lives will be judged and sacrificed.

All will be hung no one spared,

mercy no longer exists, only in prayer.
