Author S. K. Nicholas

if it persists that

forgiveness is the summer of our hearts

then we must resist

no longer

I want to save the world

but first

I must save myself

so much hate

so much fury in this weary heart

but love always prevails

even in the midst of

a great depression

I want to save all the losers

who are lost

just like me

I want to cry

to feel alive

after so many years

pretending

that everything was okay

I want to wrap my arms

around

all those who believe

in something more

who see the wonders

of

more than just

despair

these are the days

when changes are made

no longer afraid

no longer a muted voice

suffocating beneath the

waves

I want to save the world

to love everyone like a lover

to do something that matters

to make a change

in a sea of bland

indifference
