Pollution of the Soul

pollution filters through my mind

look at this mess it leaves behind.

manufactured idealisms and candy-coated pain.

everything is for nothing-someone else's gain.

terrifying images embedded in your memories

there is no cure for our cynical disease.

once you're poisoned life just fades.

your mind is lost and can't be saved.

consuming all your dreams and nightmares

taking from you, your entire life's cares.

leeching your passion and numbing your soul

killing emotion and making you evil

breaking you down til you've no pride anymore.

leaving your sanity shattered and sore.

and with no description fitting how you feel inside

such a sad depiction breaks you down and kills your pride

and then it fades out.......... it all goes gray

a thought to be pondered... another day.
