Gently.
When the ambiance of apathy encompasses us
And the Mist slowly clears
In a distant world
I can see you intertwined with
A shadow of me besides your side
My heart beating into my chest
Am I dead or am I dreaming?
As the music continues playing
A soft melody caresses the air
The lyrics we wrote in this book
Defining who we are
Staring blindly as we walk along
Unaware of our lives passing by
I see her tears, and it tears me inside
I don’t know why…
I once tasted her love
Just to watch it fall apart
Took your hand to walk this road
_________
Looking up into the stars
Sometimes all you need is hope
When everything else crashes and falls down on us
It’s time to pick those pieces of life we shattered
No use in putting the past back together
Its time to create something new
A life with one another
The hand that guides me
Stroking my face
Crystal words fall from my eyes
Melting into the pool of a broken heart
Her laugh in my head
Her smile in the sky
Her whispers dance with the trees
Inside he dies
_________
Quickly the world has swallowed any
Hope of my emotions
Circles upon circles in a cycle of life
Ending where we began
Cold and naked into the world
Penetrated by its corruption
The frozen droplets of dew, and your cold breath
Extinguish the candles
Here your head once lay
I close my eyes
Where is life taking us?
Is there a use to this paradox?
How many bullets does it take to die?
Surrealism creeping into the seams of my reality
A cruelness beyond measure, yet we push on
Inspired by those memories
Your presence far outlives your existence
For every captured soul
We send out letters to the dead
Anguish within the confines of our mind
To those thoughts never heard
Where do they go?
Those prayers never answered
Silent to an unforgiving god
Exhaling , In His Final Battle
The Ink slowly drying by his hand…
