Inside the Minds of the Unspoken

Remember The Time

Remember the time when we were sinless and pure

Remember when we were children and received help when we cried

Do you remember when we didn't know the truth

When we hadn't hurt

When we hadn't cried

When we hadn't lied

When we hadn't experienced the terrible designs of our world

When we believed the design was for us and not them

We didn't think about the consequences and we didn't need to

We didn't need to think about every move we took or every breath we breathed

There was no need

But now there is

Now we have hurt

Now we have cried

Now we have lied

Now we know the design by heart

Now we know the truth

Now we know the truth from the lies and the fake from the real

And we try and try and try to shut out the honest world for we miss the old one

We miss the shield we had over our eyes that hid them from the glare of truth

We have tried to pretend we still have our shield and some of us have succeded

But there are the few who cannot allow themselves to put on their shields

They can't allow themselves to alter into what they were before

They are the ones who are the true adults

And only they can see it for they don't have their shield

They threw it away

They burnt it in the fire this world has made for itself

They can't go back to what they were and they don't want to

They are the ones that will still be here when the rest of the world has been turned to ruble

When the world has turned into ash

When the world has turned into the true picture of what it is

Only they will still be here for they don't have to panic at the world's image

They have seen it this way all along

And they will survive

If they are old, or young, or middle-aged

They will survive

And I am one of them

And I will survive

We will survive.
