Introduction:
I seem to only pray in times of need…
And often react so ungratefully…
But if ever there was a reason to believe…
I’ve found my need…
My reason to believe…

My reason to believe…
Intro: A One Act Monologue…Sanity defined…
Today they dared to dissent…
Upset the levers set for peace…
Belief that there is more to life…
Than what they see…
What we dream is being the peacekeepers…
Pacify these beastly beings…
Through our wisdom and speech…
And if need be…
Faith so “sharpened” by divinity…
Our right beneath the sun…
Ones with the sacred trust…
Manifest through divine texts…
Success based on more of us…
And less of them!
Who would’ve thought we’d rise…
From a state of near demise…
To this place of pride…
And these things think they have the right!?
To spite us!?
They try and try!
But they will fail!
For we have faith and fate on our side!
The power of the divine!
The power of might!
To swoop in and sweep these things…
Into the darkness of endless night!
Never again will we stay silent…
Forever now we shall be tyrants…
“Why do the good people ignore me?”
All these pieces hold onto a single thought…
A single memory that tempts me to believe…
That if I could piece back together these pieces of me…
I would be able to see who I am…
So I grasp a piece…
Raise it up to my eyes…
I see…
A form of me I’ve been trying so hard to hide…
Those with sight are still blind…
For my smiles hide all pains inside…
You can’t see my heart…
Only this facade…
Well crafted “Art”…
Tailored to each individual part I must play…
Sadness is that stowaway…
Forever locked…
Keys exchanged for this scarred face…
Pain…
I know of 72 Stars who will forever outshine the infinite number of other stars that make up the night sky…
A piece of past…
That which lasts…
Verily those who claim…
That past is past…
Mask their own pain…
Witness…
Shivers at a whim…
Within the wind…
Whipped skin singed…
Marked with remembrance…
Bruised…
But chooses to hide…
As life belies…
Pain so tight…
Under this night sky…
Solace…
Nobody knows…
Letters flow…
Phrases fray…
Forever weighed…
In mysterious ways…
Sound the bells…
Sirens…
This wind…
This sin…
This memory…
Forever hidden…
Intro: This is rather dark…
My life has been nothing but a waste…
I’m a waste of skin…
Why couldn’t I have been still born…?
Or smothered at the first sound of life…
Gasping for air till I turned pale and white…
Or buried alive…Nobody caring for my cries as I slowly die…
But instead I’m living this worthless life!
Enslaved to all these slights that are breaking me down…
Yet the ground stays whole…Won’t let me enter its dark folds…
I beg…I beg…Let death be only thing I have to face…
Let “this” waste of a human being be no more…
Let me die…
Intro: I really tried to create imagery within this rather somber piece. I hope I succeeded…
Another night…
Stars so bright…
Let the souls count one by one…
For when all is done…
My turn shall be upon…
However I’m no star…
Less than a ball of gaseous light-giving massess…
A black dwarf…
Small in matters of fellow man…
Cold…
Left for the very end…
