The Awakening

Awaken dear sleepers;
children of the wondrous age.
Shatter the walls of conformity;
and allow the individual to reign.
Bare strength in hope, and in peace;
and allow this darkened world,
to fall...

Stand tall,
arise to defend your mind,
let none but faith; sway you.
Value life,
arise to defend mankind,
let the wicked fall; for their hearts turn jaded.
Value love,
whisper words of wisdom,
to the future; for young minds are betrayed.

So this, be the awakening; of today.
So we as one, can be enlightened; as shadows fade.

Prepare,
for the reckoning bares presence,
the shadow from a close horizon; you have been warned.
Thirst from truth,
on the shores of a new age,
self fulfillment; self proclamation.
Un-ending,
must the opposition stand,
for life is beauty; from which we have been disconnected.

  1. Deep, I like the visuals displayed in the wording of your poem.

    'So we as one, can be enlightened; as shadows fade'

    I like this line alot, it's a deep thought that kind of creates a personification with the shadows.

  3. This is a very interesting poem. It really makes the reader think of the life at hand and of the future. It really describes how people should always do as they want and not as they are told.
