Misdirection

The puppet master pulls the string,
“Behold! The terror this will bring!”
A flash of light, a deafening sound,
All eyes are fixated, tightly bound.


“Tremble at the shadow’s might,
The darkness that consumes the light!”
While whispers weave a phantom fear,
The truth, unnoticed, lingers near.


Drink deep the tale they offer free,
Of dragons lurking in the sea.
Believe the lies, the gilded prose,
As genuine wisdom softly goes.


For while you fixate on the fright,
Ignoring reason’s steady light,
The hand that guides, unseen, unheard,
Steals futures, whispered, every word.


Misdirection. A clever art,
To captivate the mind and heart,
And leave you lost, confused, and blind,
While reality is left behind.

šŸŽµšŸŽµšŸŽµ Money

(Verse 1) Sunrise creeping through the blinds Another day, the daily grind Got bills to pay, a dream to chase This hungry heart, this hurried pace I want the green, the folding kind But something deeper's on my mind (Chorus) I want money, that's the honest truth Not gonna lie, escaping from my youth But I don't love it, no, it's not my king Just a tool, a chance to spread my wing I need money, yes, I need it bad But I won't sell my soul, I won't be sad Just to get it, lying in the dust Integrity's a treasure, I can trust (Verse 2) The whispers tempt, the easy way Cut corners sharp, where shadows play They promise riches, instant gain But leave you hollow, filled with pain I'd rather struggle, honest and true Than compromise the person I should be, for you (Chorus) I want money, that's the honest truth Not gonna lie, escaping from my youth But I don't love it, no, it's not my king Just a tool, a chance to spread my wing I need money, yes, I ne...

(Verse 1) These lyrics echo, a trapped refrain, A storm of thoughts, a relentless pain. I want to speak, to bleed my soul, But truth unveiled might take its toll. Would sharing change the bitter taste? Or leave the landscape, barren, waste? (Verse 2) Dear Dad, this birthday letter trembles so, Not fear of words, but fate's strange flow. A cruel coincidence, this day of birth, You absent always, devoid of worth. How could you sever, erase the past? No memory stirred, no shadow cast? No tears of regret for what you'd done? You were a thief, and my childhood's gone. (Verse 3) I rage at God, how can I forgive A man whose absence made my mother grieve? Perhaps your reasons, I cannot know, For leaving her, and watching us grow... Alone. What had we done to earn this plight? A son deprived of father's guiding light. The stolen moments, a hollow ache, Did you plant the seeds, my anxious mistake? (Verse 4) They say, "Don't play the victim," words unkind, But they d...

Raining

From realms of white, a whispered sigh, Descending slow from cloudy sky. A simple sign, a silver tear, Of nature's grace, dispelling fear. The parched earth waits, a thirsty plea, For life's renewal, wild and free. Each verdant shoot, each tender bloom, Awaits the gift escaping gloom. Necessity's soft, urgent hand, Across the barren, thirsty land. A lifeline sent, a healing touch, Desired, awaited, oh so much. The rain descends, a gentle beat, Washing clean the dust and heat. Survival's balm, a precious thing, On hopeful wings, the raindrops sing. https://www.effectiveratecpm.com/d8kfphba?key=f373639f46902a880b678aed26520b0c
