Publisher's Note

BRILLIANT

we wish our life was brilliant
crystal visions we to keep ourselF
WITH everything to prove
why not follow the route?

on THE journey through life
LIVING a so-called influential
pretending we belong
WITH an invite and credential.

players live for the moment
dreamers STRIVE FOR the best
IF THERE IS A HIGHER PURPOSE
the time is now to grasp.

furious and frustrated
use our imagination to get by
stay inside to forsake emotion
government and state poised to lie.

NON-exempt from those who suffer
memory is a girl with time to think
their names come when alone
because the past is left to sink.

when our life was pure
see that if that is true
the trick is not to quit
please just believe in you.

"Before you lay your guns down"
wondering IF you LEFT A TRACE
if you were brilliant
you could find your true place.
