WRONG WAY
Our spirit is what operates the flesh,
either bringing us joy or dumping us in a mess,
when connected to open portals of our soul,
we clearly see the way to our goal.
When blocked and made to fend on its own,
it swallows seeds that others have sown,
leading us into many dead ends,
bringing sorrow and pain that never mends.
When it is silenced and bound inside,
frustration and bitterness cannot hide,
we try to ease it with physical pleasure,
grabbing at any material treasure.
None of it brings any lasting satisfaction,
all of it only false gratification,
anger and rage start turning to violence,
using the wrong way of breaking the silence.
