Easy
Is it so easy to forget
Certainty,
The Ground beneath your feet,
Because the wind lifts swayable hearts high before it drops?
Is it so easy to forget
Truth,
The Voice that rings in your thoughts,
Because softer lips offer transparent lies of joy?
Is it so easy to forget
Joy,
The Memories of years passed together,
Because he promises you the world that already rests on my shoulders?
Is it so easy to forget
Strength,
Atlas, who supports your world,
Because some new hero of falsehood says he can do the same?
Is it so easy to forget
Sacrifice,
The Protection offered a thousand times,
Because you have never once taken the shield that begs to protect?
Is it so easy to forget
Pride,
That Earth does not give way to wind,
Because It so gladly crushes in on itself?
