Reality by Nile Sadler - Classmate
The pain of love lost
knows no restraint.
Similarly,
dreams die and
give birth to hate.
And we’re all lost souls
struggling to find the light.
Wounded birds
who’ve never known the joys of flight.
Heads held high
staring
at the blue sky, white clouds or the starry night.
Nearly blinded because they
shine so bright.
And we have not yet
felt true despair
we know not yet the meaning of fear.
So young we stand
full of hope.
