Our Nature

Our Nature

Dark descent of human heart
Born of woe from man
We’ve strayed so far from our start
Departing from the plan

The drum of time beats on still
Rebellion in our hearts
Violent screams are sharply shrill
Our soul and spirit parts

Conflicting desires pressed together
One of light and one of shade
Bound with an unbreakable tether
Our deeds shall all be weighed

Unable to crawl from muck and mire
Our passions burning deep
Fed from a bright and shining fire
We squint our eyes and sleep

That was wonderful. Thank you for sharing it.

Thank you so much!

Nice read OP
something to add

CREATED then born the process begins
as the SOUL manifest within flesh

Challenged from the point of intra
to test who does their best

Many seek the easy path
eventually to find its just as hard

Others know that it may get ruff
but still keep pushing on

Doing our best to understand
this life we experience through time

Why some attack and drain the energy
unless you keep strong in mind

Over all the experiences teach that
encouraged destruction equals a fail

But after enough is learned and maturity obtained
the WHOLE* can prevail

You have a way with words, loved it. This was my favorite stanza.

The drum of time beats on still
Rebellion in our hearts
Violent screams are sharply shrill
Our soul and spirit parts
