LOSING WAR┃Theme: Humanity┃Précis: Arrival of mankind, self destruction, collateral damage, loss.┃Inspired by @streetwritersofficial daily prompt "Of forgotten dreams and lost memories." ▪︎ Thoughts: Often man believes he is at the top of the food chain. That intelligence equals survival, and yet every event you witness happens to be geared at our own impending extinction; it is inevitable. And yet why do we feel so safe? Why do we trust so much in our own, ah, "capabilities"? That we know it's for the best, that we know what's good for the planet. We often call it "humanity", why should that quality be called so? The horrors and atrocities we commit in the name of - love? Defence? How can we possibly put us in the centre and compare all "good" deeds to that? We like to justify our actions to get what we want, but when the same is done to us, we cry out in indignation. Is it "self" preservation? And if it is so, is that a justification? I find that self preservation is a losing war. Not that we can't defend ourselves, but that its effectiveness will one day prove to be detrimental to future itself. Are we the world's 'nicest' parasite, nature's biggest mistake, perhaps? It all makes me wonder about what constitutes intelligence, about what this bizarre phenomenon means for this planet, the type that only we seem to display? Speech, ideas, contemplation... I only hope that we are good, that we do the "right thing", that we help all creatures and strive to attain the perfect balance. I only wish for wise intuition and wait for a peaceful, harmonious future. ▪︎ #cinderconecrucible #losingwar #poetry • #streetwritersofficial #swp_weekly • #apoeticview #herheartpoetry #bymepoetry #silverleafpoetry #heartofpoets #societyofpoetry #train_river_publishing #poemoftheday #poetsofinstagram #poetrycommunity #poets #poetryisnotdead #poets_area #creativewriting #writersnetwork #poetrysociety #poemoftheday #writersnetwork #thewritersturf #wordporn #globalagepoetry #evepoetrygroup #theurbanpoets #inclusivepoetry #heartofquill (at Humanity) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC9Vi4SDX0w/?igshid=boyg745o9ryl

IF TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME, there is a chance most of you will forget and move on which should be fine with me because I’m anyways not existing according to the moment, to stimulate what you don’t feel. But there is a also a possibility that you will still try, to search me, even if you know I do not physically exist anywhere around. Probably, if you feel, spiritually I’m exactly where you believe I should be, I would be, IF I could be! I’m driven high, just as you smile, that pure moment when you forget the past, or worry of future, that present moment so precious, requesting you to trace me in the delicate sonnet song you are hearing right now and as you read here, this exact moment, a blink mixed with the blurry-vision due to tears in your eyes, you will easily figure out, my faint trace in the deep words that echo hope, runs in the orbit of prayer &lots of love for you. I never regret my existence as such but extinguishing has been such a right thing because this experience of being without expectation is so exciting. I’m so sorry that I never said that before but to perish one day just like that had been always my aim. Obviously there was no need to give any hint, however I wish I could tell you, that I’m now peaceful, more alive as I’m drowning in my invisible happy tears & infinite dreams floating void voyage throughout my journey in the cosmos, just as you feel me in warm breeze is such a confiding comforting call !‬ So now that you have accepted my peace as your poetry, I want you to remember the last time we kissed, we closed our eyes and it was in that absolute moment, I was simply lost in the sweeping reach of course. Now, I feel the same exact elation of passion preservered in this path so unknown. Only that I cannot feel your lips anymore, even after pressing harder through the zephyr, it’s difficult and it doesn’t feel.‬ ——————————————— ‪#livewithpassionliveyourpassion‬‪——————————————— ‪FOLLOW : @creationofhymns #creationofhymns ‬‪——————————————— PROMPT : @streetwritersofficial #swp_weekly ‬(if tomorrow starts without me) ——————————————— #selfportrait #writersofinstagram #death #afterlife #griefjourney #writersnetwork #portrait #wordgasm (at Reviere) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBsaLorF2No/?igshid=6ytkumlbv2s
