I don’t know where I am, and I don’t know how I got here. I opened my eyes, and I was blinded by the light radiating above me. I thought to myself, Where am I? I tried to stand, but my legs felt numb. Had I ever walked before? No… stupid question. Of course I’ve walked. I remember long hikes down the beach, strolls through the foothills, jogs along the riverside. So why can’t I move? As I lay there, lost in my confusion, not understanding the situation, I was stunned. A sudden wave of sensation washed over me. I could feel hot and cold, wet and dry. I could hear sounds all around me. The roar of engines, the cal

I’m tired of running I’m sick of the lies I can’t hold it back now, the tears that I hide The one and the only The woman I loved The torrents of madness she pours from above Controlled by my anger Confused by my guilt I carry a burden society built The widely accepted The sins of my past It eats me alive, and I can’t hold it back! To who should I run When I’m drowning in sorrow I’m telling myself that there’s always tomorrow The days begin meshing The years are a blur I’m trapped in a cage now, with bars made of her I’m broken inside I can’t seem to think The madness inside pushes me

I wake up every day and know it’s a new beginning Coping comes easily Everything is fine People tell me they look up to me I can sense when others hurt The days that pass are only temporary Regrets are things I never carry Burdens of the past are lessons for my future Loving others comes naturally to me I’m only in it for the fun and games Talk to me, I’m here to listen My advice is that of an old soul Keep me company, it’s worth your time I’ll only miss you when you say goodbye The words above are all a lie I tell them to myself The one who knows and sees me true Is the only one who knows me… You.

It sits there, writhing on the wall Flicking in and out of existence Never succumbing to the advances I make against it It taunts me, showing fault in every move I make Always present, lest I envelop myself in darkness A constant reminder that I must change It holds me, like a prisoner in a cage Tearing away the sanity I once held dear Forever reminding me of what I’ve done wrong It liberates me, like a bird in the air Leaving no trace of existence Save for the shadow, writhing on the wall

You are my Spring You bring me beauty You bring new life Every day, a new beginning Colorful landscapes paint the horizon The gentle breeze carresses me to sleep The grass glowing ever brilliant under your radiant light You are my Summer The warmth of your glow The heat of our moments The rays of joy you cast with your smile Always hopeful, always bright Ever the optimist, you guide me from the dark Never wandering far from memory You are my Autumn The cool touch of your palm The deep colors I see in you Like the crisp leaves fallen from the sky Resting, innocent as a newborn child The passion you instill in me Will never fade away You

I've found something deep within A hole, the shape of a heart It burns with desire Its depths are fathomless I feel it It pulls at my soul It rips at my body It must be filled But who, if any, can carry that burden? I know of but one A pure, loving, angel of a person Do you feel what I feel? Do my cries reach you? You speak, and I listen You move, and I follow Your every breath is a relief Every fibre of my being yearns for you Every hair stands on end when you're near Every passing moment with you is an eternity You don't know me You don't love me You can't possibly But I dream, and I hope, and I wish That one day The hole that I could never

Years passed, your beauty glowing ever radiant. Plentiful love flowed betwixt our hearts. The warmth of your skin, The touch of your lips, The anticipation of seeing you at days end; Moments to live for, To dream of, To cherish. Walks through the parks, lovers hand in hand, The bountiful light of joyful souls Playing serenely off the face of life. The glimmer in your eyes so sweet I could scarce but taste your happiness. The days we sat around, Laying for hours, arm in arm, Enjoying the presence of one another; Feelings to die for, To pine after, And to hope That someday, maybe, We can live those moments once more. For now, I can no longer ca

Waves of pain and doubt wash over me Like and endless sea of misery. Distressed, I lay awake Watching, waiting. To who will my heart fly Now that it's been crushed and thrown to the wind? To what ends must I go In my search for peace and joy? How long, my love, have you felt so? How fickle is thy heart That so quickly it grows for yet another? The years spent with no purpose Save to bring you joy, Cast away like rubbish And drowned in emotions unspeakable. Have you not eyes To see the darkness grow in mine? Have you not ears To hear my cries for mercy? Yet you ignore my plea And yearn for a man who you know not. Perhaps I am a fool To think o

Take commands And carry out Left, Left, Left Right Left March in time Conformist crowds Left, Left, Left Right Left Take your guns And shoot 'em down Left, Left, Left Right Left Load your rifles Kill 'em now Ready, Halt, Fall out Charge and stab Shoot and shout You're taking all your anger out You're pumping up adrenaline You're walking down the murder route Keep in mind the countless lives You've ripped away from worried wives The cries of children in their beds As bullets pierce their fathers' heads You cold hard killers have no shame You murderers are not to blame For what you do you justify With all your military l

The world, Broken inside. In a nutshell, Empty. Inspiration drained, Abandoned by the Muse. Poetic revelations Prosaic in recitation. Time ticks by. Clocks have stopped. Life so temporary, Seemingly eternal. Pen and paper collide. Words clash, Meshing together, Lacking originality. Disaster and harmony, Together chaotic as clockwork. Rhyme and meter Thrown to the wolves. Humanity making an escape, Taking shelter In prison cells. Heathens and heretics Stand righteous in their ways. Discord and discontent Paving paths to peace. Complex complacency Intriguing the minds of apathy. The world In a nutshell.
