Devastation
September 27, 2016
Devastation lures in the infamous leeches that
steal courage shaping it into permanent scars
Devastation is a flame that conquers your heart,
Bringing it to ashes
We may all be drowning in sorrow
Though the truth about lies
Lay hidden along the path of infuriation
Devastation is not displeasure
Tis' not humor
nor life
but is Anomalous.
It does not belong in our
Pursuit to Happiness
You can run from desolation,
Leaving your hope to rot
or
Stack your failures
and plunge into the
Great havoc of success
