Above…

Cup your hands

Carefully catch my tears

Don’t allow them to land

Among hidden, unknown fears

Reach out to hold

My body trembles

Break words through folds

Mind wrestles and crumbles

Time steers in slow motion

The future peddles uncertainty

Fears cover hearts lotion

Loneliness closes nights curtain

Misunderstood in a world disconnected

Defiant to comply at societies knees

No individual is welcomed, nor connected

Refusing to rely on opinions decrees

Empty of self, rejected and shamed

Accusations wings fly high

Fierce to withstand wrongful claims

Courage determination is dangers cry

In a world shouting wrongfully

Designating bad to appear good

Cries of justice hated, shaped rightfully

Sorrow stands tall though division stood

The multitudes anger at righteousness

The righteous stripped naked at defence

Confusion attempts to malign goodness

In a world downside up, will justice commence?

Afar off I hear….Above, above, above….

Above all, One understood harrowing’s state

Above all, One lived through the mire of humanities traits

Above all, One came to die for humanities sake

Above all, One felt all, willingly, taking humanities bait
