Fall of an Empire
Everything dies and crumbles to dust
The leaves which are now fresh and new
Will slowly fade and become nothing.
As the seasons change
As time passes by
Everything will become nothing
As Rome fell so shall we.
Within a single lifetime
Some will see millions of deaths
Yet everyday they will carry on
Knowing that although everything dies
Although everything turns to dust
Nothing is ever truly gone.
Life will spring forth
From the ashes of a shattered world
And something stronger will
Take the place of what came before
Fear
I'm going to curl up
In this dark corner
And hope the world
Doesn't find me.
A frightened little girl
Strangely calm until
You look beneath the surface
and see the storm within.
I wrap my arms around my body
And hope I'm safe
Within the shell I made
To run away from fear.
Ironic Insecurity
Silence drips from
My broken veins
And all I want to do
Is scream, insecurity
Stops my throat
From making a sound.
I'm left here with
No way to tell
The world how I feel
Now that I do
Anyways the world would
Never understand.
If I could scream
If I could tell the world
How I feel
I would have nothing to say.
It's ironic, I want to scream
But I can't,
If I could I wouldn't.
In Dreams We Wait
In dreams we wait
Casting off the chains
Of this cruel reality
Just wait, dreams are
Better than you've
Ever thought
In dreams we wait
To see eternity
In someone's arms
Or in ourselves.
In dreams we are
Immortal, not
Ophelia on her
Flower death bed
Not the starving
Not the needy
In dreams we wait
For what will
Never be.
Murderer
It is not my fault
Though your blood is on my hands
I never meant to...
Eternally Suspended
Emptiness, souless
Pieces torn away.
Need nothing now.
No heat or cold.
No clothing .
No air nor water.
I am eternal
And eternally numb.
Suspended by dreams
And the fire of pain
No longer felt.
Eternity Immortal
Eternity is
The greatest fear of many
The highest dream of few
Immortality is
Not worth the struggle
Why watch time unfold
Yet be part of nothing
Humanity cannot even imagin
What eternity is like.
Comprehesion is beyond
What these frail minds
Can grasp.
It Waits
This world is not what you think.
Behind the meaningless talk,
Behind the empty smiles,
A struggle is taking place.
Right beneath the surface,
Just beyond our view,
The monster is struggling,
Desprate to get out
Of the confines of our minds.
Teeth bared, ready to strike, it waits.
Nothing
If you could see the truth,
See behind the lies,
See that this means nothing.
Nothing amounts to nothing.
Talk means nothing.
The only way to answer
The questions you are asked
Is to look into those
Souless eyes, look straight
In and as, Why?
Why is this how to act?
Why is this how to feel?
Why should I care?
Why should I be nothing too?
Why should I be like you?
Everything
I am the darkness
You're afraid of
I am the light
You run to.
I am mystery.
I am misery.
I am joy.
I am everything
And nothing at all.
I am the one
You love
and the one you
Wish you knew.
I am pain.
I am pleasure.
I am everything
You want to be
And everything
You despise.
Going Home
I want to go home
But I no longer know
Where that is.
Stability is a luxury
And one I rarely see.
I belong somewhere
But I know it's not here.
In your arms
I find some comfort
But right now I'm alone
In the darkness.
These thoughts creep
Into my mind
Leaving me without sleep
Dispell them please,
Let me rest.
Let me go home.
Life Waits for No One
Life waits for no one
Whirling about you
It never stops
You keep turning
Until confusion makes sense
Darkness is nothing
Neither is light
We are all what we want
No matter what we say.
We live the lives we're given.
Life waits for no one
As it flys past
Some watch it go
Do you? Do you ask it to stop?
Quickly, climb aboard
You're missing so much.
Speaking in Blood
Blood makes noise you know
It whispers as it flows
Within your body
It talks of life
The way things used to be
Before you were broken
Before you bled
It screams as it drips
From broken veins
Releasing the pain.
It speaks of passion
The fire that ignites it
The joy of flowing so freely
The beat of two hearts
Beating in time with eachother.
Our Dark Heaven
The night falls through my fingers,
Like hourglass sand.
Time is passing slowly
But it's still too fast for me.
Come out with me beneath the stars
And catch the grains of darkness and time
That fall from my grasp.
Don't lose a second
For it is far to precious to waste.
Make this night last forever
And even that's not enough..
I want to stay like this forever,
In the silent darkness
Wrapped in your arms
But daylight comes to soon
And the light is so bright
That we awaken from our mutual dream.
Awoken from our dark heaven
By the reality of day.
