Your body is weak
Your mind is leaving
Your skin is thin
I know soon you must go
That it will all soon end
Lingering wisps of happier times
The sent of perfume and cleaning supplies
Pictures of faces from long ago
I just can't seem to let you go
Ghosts of those loved linger by the door
Waiting for you to follow them home
They know its time to go
I scream out no
I beg for you not to go
I pray for one more day
I weep for I can't make you stay
Life will move on
I know that true
But I will always miss you

Oh Son of two Corrupted hearts and moving parts
shatter the glass that holds your heart,
let the blood flow like rain
You are only a part of the machine they say
but you know the truth
spoken between the words of vipers
you are more than what they say
You are what you see to be

We are a speck in a large swirl of stars, planets, and galaxies
A second to us is but a useless moment in an endless eternity
Time moves on even if we are absent to see it
Days pass on despite whom we may miss
The universe could care less about who calls out,
in agony, in sorrow, in pain, in anger
They are but a split second of sound in a torrent of silence.
The stars don't seek to know who you are.
The universe owes you nothing.
You don't have to exist.
But you do.
On your own terms you live and breathe.
You owe the universe nothing.
You owe the stars nothing.
You exist on your own terms.
You live because to choose to.

Upon the blank paper slate
a world of light pencil sketches
unfolds before my eyes
Spiraling curls and striking lines
combine to form the image
hidden within my mind
As the picture comes into form
the world seems to blur
focused only on my craft
My work is worth the time I take

Burn the stars
Darken the day
Close the blinds
I will not go out today
