Looking back on those times, from 8 years on
The world changed into a mean place, full of woe and wrong
I came to the conclusion that devils do exist
That Angels would never save me in a pinch
Where life was more complicated than that planned out dream
Or the fact that talking to a girl racked my nerves, made me weak
As I walked through the valley of corruption and woe
My wonderlust memories bring me up and down as I delve deeper on
Past a place called forever more, and more to a place like Hell on Earth
I began to believe there was no saving thought
The world born to simply be a rut
A wrinkle that could never be pressed
That could only be shot, put down in a grave and laid to rest
But as I stand today, left with a button pressed
I can honestly say that my head isn't so much a mess
A clear thought brazen on my lips
Revolution stirs in these joints, but never gone to the fingertips
The world is more worth living for than bullshit like this
I got to stand on my own two feet, my head cleared from this mist
So as I dance in my wonderlust thoughts
Looking back on the world, I can finally smile, once and for all
This ugly world is my world, one I can't escape
But with a little magic, even I can turn it into more than a place
More than a little knife could ever hope to do
Or giving into a system that fails to be all true
These thoughts of suicide left in a gutter, to slowly be washed away
Standing on these two wobbly feet, I can say I am alive again.
Never to be the same
Wonderlust memories feeding the fuel of change

- Title: Wonderlust Memories
- Artist: Chaotica Leonus
- Description: Most of us been in that rut, where we don't believe in anything anymore at one time. This poem is about what I saw from 8 years old to where I am today. How I felt back then to how I feel today. I'm still not 100% about things, and the world still shakes me up all the time, but I think even with a little work, things can better in time. That's what this poem is about. That and I was bored. I don't write much, so I needed to revitalize the old writing juices. Enjoy.
