The Cure
A flower, in gorgeous red, grows on the ground
The cure, shining silver like the Moon by Night, on the other side
And between them is the broken one
Who asked for Help but never got it
Who screamed because of the Pain but no one heard it
Who showed the Pain for everyone visible but no one saw it
Everyone was just judging
It’s the own fault to be broken
It’s just the own Laziness that keeps you away from a Change
Someone like that just gave up because it was hard for a little Time
No.
A broken one gives up because everyone gave up on them
Tell me? Would one of you all fight?
Just one?
When you lost your Warmth and everyone refuses to give you some
Would you fight?
When you’re drowning in an Ocean, trying to reach a helping Hand and everyone refuses his Hand
Would you fight?
When you’re all alone, craving for Company and everyone refuses his own
Would you fight?
None of you would
When you don’t see the Worth of yourself in the World and there’s no one to show you
You give up.
And you’re just judging
You’re not seeing that it’s also your Fault
But these people, who refused their Help, who were judging, are now standing in front of dirt
Apologizing to the Air
Regret in their Faces
They don’t see it’s also their Fault
They just live in their own World
But still…
They can’t understand
The broken one just asked for one Person
To help them
To be their Friend
But everyone refused
They believed in Humans
But only Disappointment was left
All the Light, Trust and Love was gone
And only Darkness remained
They needed a Guide out of the dark
But nobody saw it
So they had to find a Way by themselves
The only Thing they could control
The only Cure, the only help
Always there when it’s needed
It feels like it’s the only Thing that helps
But in the End
And now, all the People are asking
“Why didn’t they say a Thing?”
“We could have helped them”
Now they seem to care
Now they want to help
They just understand that they asked
They don’t understand that they have to listen to the Silence
But sometimes it’s too late
Too late to help
Too late to Care
Because the so called Cure already helped
Because the Cure is the Reason they’re standing here
