Traditions and Contradictions


Customs and Traditions,
Filled with Contradictions
Feeding only the Egoistic side
Taking you for one hell of a ride
Twisting and turning you upside down
Until all you can do is sigh and frown
Never revealing what’s deep within
Concealing all the places one can begin
To find the true meaning of life
Above all the heartfelt strife
Leaving you wanting, no, demanding more
But the strife is so big you just hit the floor
But when a door is closed a window opens
Inside your heart, if you have so chosen
To reveal the connections to the ones passed away
The’re in your heart waiting to come out and play
Needing only for you to remember
When you love someone it is forever
Forget these customs and traditions designed to make you cry
And remember them in your heart, where likes eagles they fly
Remember the love and hate you had to this day
Lower your head and pray
That through it all you can see within
That there truly is none else beside him
