Faith
You are never promised tomorrow.
To live your life, you must sacrifice
Give up the temptation to pay the ultimate price
To find heaven, you must live in your personal hell
Here is temporary, but there is permanence in paradise
But what is the point of being free if I am still in a cell

Protection
I hear them outside. Their footsteps blend with the wind to try and disguise themselves, but I hear them. Right outside my window on the second floor, they whistle softly but just precisely enough for only me to hear. That thing out there, probably big and tall, wants to get me, but it can't because I'm in here.

Hidden Happiness
The world in which we live, is constantly changing, and this applies even more so in these days in which we live. With the implementation of AI into the workplace, people are beginning to fear for their jobs. With the rumors of wars circulating across the globe people are falling into fearful states, that are spurred on by changes, the likes of which we have never in human history, experienced before.
