Wake up ...

Rom 11:8  (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day.

 

Dreamless

 

No dreams left for tomorrow today washed them away

Life changes quickly from hope to despair

Happiness replaced by sorrow in vessels of clay

As they are breaking into pieces everywhere

 

Not able to hold tears of any substance

Neither good nor bad can guide emptiness

Life certainties are now just a for instance

As one there is formed by constant loneliness

 

The human spirit is simply much over-rated

Just because we don’t keep track of the demised

How many are not sacrificed for the contaminated?

Who then will start ruling to no one’s surprise?
