Out of this ugly mess

Out of this ugly mess,
this attitude of 'I'm the best',
no time, no rest,
just test after test
forgetting each other,
sister and brother,
a tool of a lover,
lies should cover,
our cries,
our ties,
our sighs,
our good byes,
which we deny,
we buy,
time, time, 
time magazine,
hoping it does not end,
that death isn't just around the bend,
that God his angel will not send,
that our life will not blend
in with the host of others
the time gone past
fast fast fast
behind us now
deeds of which we are proud
deeds we sing about loud
and those we ignore
those which bore
into our hearts' core
defying hope,
defying joy,
defying love,
defying God
comes
light.
