Silence

Tears,
Lachrymose and melancholy
Wrenching pain within
Eyes water uncontrollably
Over-flowing at eyelid’s rim
Don’t want others to see
Must stay strong
And keep appearance
Must hold it all in
But a single tear slips
Falling upon the cement ground
A loud pounding boom
No one has yet seen
Or heard the loud crash
Of the impact of that first single tear
And one after another
Come raining down
As you sprint away
Leaving all others standing,
Confused and uncertain
Seconds pass,
Like centuries on end,
Until they chase you down
And question the matter
But you’ve grown accustomed to it all
Routine almost
And shake your head
And sadly smile
Nothing’s wrong,
Nothing’s the matter
And life goes on

Sun

Bright sun shining
Lighting our way
Brightening our day
Giving us life
All on Earth rely on thee
Shining light and heat

Trees and flowers,
Vines and plants
All use thee to flourish and grow
From flora,
Comes oxygen
For animals,
And humanity
To breathe and live
Thus without thee,
None can be

Thoughts of You (Song in Progress)

huh. Well... I actually wrote this like 5 months ago, but the vocals still aren't done and I apparently forgot to post the lyrics up, so I posted them up now. And here is the link to the music w.o vocals to listen to for now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGHYeymy5kk&feature=player_embedded


Hands and fingers intertwined
Mind and thoughts all combined
Heart and soul a single link
Each pair completely in sync


Day by day each passin’ by
Don’t take a notice, don’t see why

Rather be awake than sleep
Reality sweet as dreams


Your every thought consumes me
Your every move – ecstasy
Your every motion - gentle
Your every whisper – so sweet


Your every touch - a soft caress
And all else just escapes me

Nothing else in this whole world
Exists except for you and me
All around is so blurry
You - the single focus


Thoughts of you consume me
Layin’ there, unable to sleep
It ain’t needed anymore
All I want is you by me


Your every thought consumes me
Your every move – ecstasy
Your every motion - gentle
Your every whisper – so sweet


 ‘Til the next time we can meet
Thinking of both you and me
Of us and our memories
Of us and our memories


Your every thought consumes me
Your every move – ecstasy
Your every motion - gentle
Your every whisper – so sweet


Your every touch - a soft caress
And all else just escapes me

Satanic Waltz

Music trills at three-fourths tempo time

Pairs moves smoothly through routine

Stepping steady and strong with the song

Dancing along, partner at hand,

Ballroom at foot, wide and smooth


The notes and steps together held

Alike with the hands of dancers plenty

Aligned lovely a sight to behold

Waltzing so sweetly in partner’s strong arms

And then a sudden twist ensues, disrupting


Although they all carry on cue

And the course seems hitch-free

As the candid photos capture their movements

Seemingly beauteous and pure

But the sweet is combined with corrupted dark


Black magic sweeps down upon couples unwary

Drowning the brightness and blockading the light

Darkening the mood of party-goers aplenty

Dooming each pair as they circle and weave

Despite how well kept their steps remain


Around the floor, they waltz oblivious

Able in moment as to waltzing but naught else

As Satan seizes their minds, bodies, and souls

Aching and sore but uncertain to why

And again the darkness sweeps downwards


Evil death plagues each dancer’s eyes

Eating way their souls, gone

Evolving now swiftly, diminishing to ever less

Entering the hellhole reeking of stench and heat

Each foot deeper into the pulsating depth of the core


Nonstop falling into the boiling mass

Newt’s eye taken, dragon scale stolen

Nagging tongue cut in, spider webs tossed in

Never grow old nor live again

Not anything except an eternal existence


Given up souls and going to hell

Grasping the past as it’s gone for the wishes

Those that no genie or fallen star could ever grant

Turning in desperation to devilish fiends

Thinking naught of consequences come yet after


Satan’s deal closed, signed and done

Serving him through sand-less land,

Waterless seas, and tree-less canopies

Where searing pain starts amongst the heated storms

Burning Lucifer’s mark into flesh, tattooed with each step


Relief he brought rushes past before thine eyes

Realizing the truth and reality upon you

As ends now meet and reach

Rearing scalded at facts you overlooked

Ripped and shattered at the lusting want cheated


Moment of bliss, barely enjoyed

Brought from the wishes and desires engraved

In mass produced thoughts filling majority’s mind

Marketing well amongst meek and simple men

Who all seemed to think it through, only to be mauled


Servitude begins and never ends

Signed away a life after life

Which cannot even be considered living

A death worse than death itself

A satanic waltz of three-fourths time with Lucifer himself

Oh-Possum


Grotesque pasta curlicues and pretzels
Splayed on display from the cavern wide
Dripping and drying in the afternoon sun
Flattened and scrapbooked upon gravel pages
Glued down by last breathes spit and blood
Saliva driveled: mix of garbage and soil

From the hollow of the jaw cracked wide
Open at the most uncomfortable angle
Disturbing the pedestrian passersby
Jaywalking the yellow stripped gravel-y grey
Looking down away from the height
Of the height glaring, competing with the stare
Blank and endless found beady upon
Expression-filled emptiness

Stomach’s contents gushing to join the page
From the door anew beneath the slender pouch
Alike its sister intestines born from jagged jaw
Past yellowing claws of teeth and matted fur
Blending with the curl of tail underneath
All the guts, the endless whorls

Left on this board as a new puzzle
From the nocturnal night roam
Scavenger lone hissing at the approacher
Slow to move as always, until
Frightened into stationary shock
Frozen and unable to escape
Blinded and silenced by vehicle unwary

Soundless shrill seen still
In the morning come and morning past
High noon evolves and mourns angrily
Waves of temperature from its temper
Quick the travelers afoot led
To the death site, heads down
Forced to mourning by rays relentless
Bashing and whipping burning light
So that eyes meet the gore and opossum’s
Death glare and silenced yelp

Summer Afternoon


It is beautiful outside
It doesn’t look quite like summer,
Yet it does in a way
The sky not quite blue,
More of a grayish, light blue type of hue
Our tree is quite beautiful,
It is unlike other trees,
Its leaves hanging down,
Waving gently in the breeze
The ferns and flowers sway softly
In the silent,
The trickling of water,
The only sound heard
It really is beautiful outside,
Today, in the cool and the quiet

Doubt

Doubt is a poison
That slowly creeps into your thoughts
Uncertainty and disbelief spread throughout
Slyly invading your heart and mind
Relationships severed,
Bonds broken and torn apart
Separated are friends,
Disintegrated are lovers,
Divided are families
Unwary and paranoid,
Unsure of all,
What they knew,
Seems a lie
It is a needle that pricks and pries,
A thorn digging deep,
Claws scratching endless gashes,
A knife opening bloody wounds,
A rapier that kills

Catching a Falling Star

Feeling doubt and questioning fate
Engulfed in darkness from afar
But clinging on to the hope late
From catching a falling star

Skies flicker with lights
Wishing on the first star sighted
On one shooting across in flight
Amongst midnight planes piloted

Awaiting the magical properties
Of dreams and fairy tales come true
Star dust not only from a mythical species
Altering the negative view

Even if these are deceiving
Even if already knew surreal
Having such superstitions driving
Having such brings hope of steel

Eyelash undone
Eleven eleven time struck
Each birthday candle done
Earnings tossed in hopes of luck

Fallacy from childhood formed
Maturing, knowing otherwise
But to these we’ve still stormed
Momentarily content in such lies

Something so familiar
Such that is so routine
Sliver of hope remains closer
So keep aiming to catch that falling star
