WORTH

we are born into this...
no... we have brought ourselves into this...
no... we were planned and placed into this...
no... we find ourselves here...

right here

we find ourselves bound to a day to day where breath matters not until its our last
we dedicate lifetimes to the gain of others
we strangle passion and desire while profit and demand are resuscitated
we profess ourselves above beings thriving in the same sunlight
we measure ourselves and eachother against the schemes of credit and debt
we disagree with our predicament, but find comfort amongst the flock
we mute the raging mind that chokes on its own disbelief in our quiet hours

right now

I'll say what I feel
I'll love uncontrollably these creatures that share this trip through the stars with me
I'll stop only when I can't go on
I'll follow only when my heart can no longer lead
I'll live before I die... I'll live.
