Is suffocating my senses
Calculating my despair
I’ve acquired numerous losses
Although they can never compare
To the masses
They strike a chord within me
Exacerbating the catalyst

Everyone has a job to do
I guess they should do them well
No one, supposedly, controls you
Yet your sprit is jailed
You control your destiny
That myth has been dispelled
In this new world irony
The path is concealed

The nature grows around me
Where has the judgment sunk
Are we machines feeding on money
With our emotions locked in the trunk
Is this all that remains of huminty
The decency that withstood time,
Slowly has withered and shrunk

Debate me if you disagree
I dare you, enter your plea
I could swear your smirking face
Is shouting you are guilty
I'll let you down gently
I'll even give you the remedy
The trick to achieving serenity
Is to set your body free

I enter a guilty plea, but plead my case all the same. This in-decent world exacerbates a catalyst within me as well, but at the same time I am caught in a horrid, cyclical and slow death of unrealized desires. I can say I find serenity quite frequently but we've all learned ways to shut it off and shut them out. The ways we lack are the ways down that concealed path - concealed even to ourselves, usually.
Very interesting piece here, and it is just not right people haven't commented on it. But then again, that says something else, doesn't it? Fantastic job!

:)

Hmmm...this seems like a veiled, self struggling write...to me anyway. I like it because in one sense it's like you're teaching the reader, but hidden in between the lines your sitting patiently, waiting to be taught...The title caught my eye because about 10 years ago, I wrote a poem entitled; "I Plead Insanity". lol That should give you a laugh!!!
