Before Enlightenment

I'm confused,

Everything's twisted

People are bruised,

Some convicted

All I see is people,

Crawling to land

And seeing blood ripple,

I don't understand

My eyes are shutting,

But I see radiant light

I thought of rebutting,

But joy hides my sight

A staircase of white magic,

Forgetting events that were tragic

As you step into Heaven,

You become enlightened
