We were one, we were a team Now you're gone, never to be seen I see you every night in my dreams I'm empty now, but you're happy, it seems. I thought that I did everything right Until I saw your message that night Am I wrong or am I right? Should I have put up more of a fight? After all this time and now it's over So hard to deal with all this when you're sober Maybe I should go sit in the rain With a pill and some ***** to numb my pain. Don't want to talk, I just need time To realise that you're no longer mine Have to figure out what I do next The next girl I find will just be for *** I feel emotional and physical strain Losing myself, I'm going insane See your face and I know that I'm dreaming Wake in the night, can't breathe and I'm screaming. If it's not my stomach, then it's my head 3am heart racing, that feeling of dread Lately I just don't feel like me Vision all cloudy, just wish I could see. Each day I try so hard to pretend My whole body feels broken, just wish it would mend Right now it's difficult for me to carry on I'm trying not to break, I'm trying to be strong. Standing here shaking, on the grass whispering to myself, 'this too shall pass' Earphones in, drowning out the voices that are in my head, along with other noises. What I need is to forget about you To change my scenery, to change my view I can't give in to this depressing mood I need meditation and solitude.

I need meditation and solitude
The light of few so brightly shone, and there you left. Going, gone. Away, away, still further you went the love strings of my heart so bent dead and gone, the flame put out my mind no longer filled with doubt 'you're mine', I say and still you walk my lips quiver, no way to talk I cannot go on, not anymore yet every day I'm at your door there I stand, alone in the cold every day until I'm old come back to me I beg of you still I wait through rain and dew prepared to stay until my last day my love for you shall never fade

My love for you shall never fade
We saw nothing that was inside your face everything so well did hide he'll be okay - no use prying but inside your heart was dying A mask you wore to hide the pain the sadness and sorrow, driving you insane and still we saw nothing, not even a glimpse not a shudder, a tear, not even a wince As you stood there, feeling only dispaire in the silence of 1000 stares we ran to you, having finally caught on but too late we came, into the woods you had gone. Slowly you walked, under the light of the moon your heart wretching from pain and gloom and there you came to a solemn standing tree from which nobody your act could see Just one moment it took for thee to set your mind, your soul a'free at last your suffering put to ease a lifeless body swaying in the breeze

A moment in time
What he says may roar through the crowd But on deaf ears it falls eventually after years of sunken silence The profit becomes an equal His thoughts remain untill they don't The rain falls a new and out of the pool more musings rise To which music is played respect is shown and hands are thrown up He too does revel in his following, his pool of delight it's turned to acid, by God of course. An image is shown All who gaze upon it shall remember untill no one does and long after one thousand cycles past We are all shown as equal as no one is left to remember what is good or bad the creator of words is gone There is only what is but meaning there is not for we too upon taking that first breath we too were fooled

Blank
I am the futile nightmare I am the one you seek Oh so long ago I plunged my talons deep inside your flesh And as the thick, dark blood oozed out of you we watched together as your life diminished Sharing in this agonizing torment I held you in my embrace I am the impervious manifestation of evil As you begin to realise You are going to die Our bond strengthens. As you lay In torturous suffering I stretch out my tongue And scrape it along your cold skin I am that of which nobody dare to speak Born from the putrid blackness I surround you My viscous texture engulfs you You become me I become you I am the one true commonality In every reality I exist In your reality I dominate Upon a towering mass of corpses I look down into chaos And from this throne of bodies I do as I was made to I am everything never changing And as a mother consuming her fetus I consume that which lies inside of me Through this sick game of time from which my will is derived I am left knowing only your fate for none is mine.
