Out of orbit.

Postby drllrd74 » Thu Jun 23, 2016 1:42 am

We're a world, that's out of orbit,
a racing star that's gone awry;
blazing in the darkened night,
burning brightly, as we die.

Left behind, an unknown God,
we treat sin as no big deal;
but around us, life is fading,
and it makes the dull mind reel.

Sin is absent, never mentioned,
gone the choice of right and wrong;
and tolerance no longer need,
we stumble as we go along.

Only change will turn the corner,
repentance from the depth of heart;
transformation of our nature,
can give us, the wanted start.

We're a world, that's out of orbit,
spinning madly in the sky;
knowing not the final answer,
nor the rhyme or reason why.

We are spinning out of control David, the new generations seem to have little respect for anything other than themselves, often even life itself is held cheap to them.... i don't think there is an answer at this late stage ... :cry: :cry: :cry:

Very true and very sad. It almost seems that any day we rise, we could spin out of orbit. Thank you for the inspirational phrasing, nicely penned work. Best Loretta

This is so true. I feel things are tumbling into an abyss. It feels like we've passed the point of no return. Very well written poem.
