It has passed away

• Artist: Slugmetal4
• Description: I wrote this poem attempting to convey my feelings of what the world (mainly western culture) and its media has done to a certain special thing in our lives. I think that it is important that we try to keep this thing alive.

It is dead and it is gone
It has passed away
The only thing left in this world
To give life to any day
What is left, what still remains
What can be done to save
The one true thing that this world has
But it is lost now anyway
These lies made to ones own heart
Have ended what we had before
It is now the thing of fantasy
For, to make it real would be a chore
One night it’s there, the next it’s gone
It was never there from the start
Just another lie, a feeling
That never made it to the heart
What is real and what is fake?
It is impossible to figure out
Impossible to say it’s true
Without an inkling of doubt
We as people are all guilty
Of committing murder today
For we have destroyed the one true thing
That we had in this day and age
Because it is dead and it is gone
It has passed away
The only thing left in this world
To give life to any day
