M
white mountain, your beauty is revealed your top rises above the lake bed and beyond the trees and breaks through the barrier which contains us Winter's cold wind carries cigarette smoke up to you and the burning ash falls into the water below the bridge a perfect scenic picture fading with the sun and a pink portrait of light fills the sky before it all disappears the **** is stomped and disposed of with time we will all secumb to the night hide these secret burning lights

An Ode to Nature
Dig your own grave day after day deep down into the ground through the roots of the trees past the skeletons of ancient beasts into the lava hidden at the core dig down through layers of soil. dig until this hell becomes your home until your own grave is filled full of pain when your hands will shake from strain when legs give out and fail you and your bent back aches and the darkness becomes more comfortable for your eyes but do not stop to feel that pain until you reach the fullest extent of what it could possibly be. then, when no more can be taken when the heat is moments from consuming you. you will awake and fade from this false heaven we call our home.

Its somewhere deep down there
Am I swimming? Or am I floating? Something's changed It's a new feeling Once lost but now found The breath released out of me is calmer than it ever has been The weight of the air no longer seems to weigh me down And the water doesn't **** me in I stare up at the sky above and for hours I don't mind just sitting and staring I must be floating

Calm
These glasses have fixed my views And repaired my perception and my moods. I can finally see clearly. Not that I was ever blind But when I stared off, far away, I couldn't decipher the signs. They were strange, foreign to me I couldn't make them out. Then I placed on an old pair of glasses To help me see. Presently, I stand in a home. One that is not mine own and I can see what I never could before. I see a new life for me. One that is filled with music art literature and history Where I'm surrounded by nature happiness and family. It's a new vision that these glasses have given me and I'm hopeful to make it my reality.

Two frames of glass
He has dug deep wounds into the sockets of my eyes And rang sounds so horrendous that my eardrums burst to escape Vocal cords were vandalized, relieving my vulnerability to cry Still, some senses remain so I reach out to feel your memorable shape. My only fear feeds on what's left of my fading corpse That your skin be burnt or your body damaged beyond fix And all I'll have is my last remaining force Then I shall recall you with my lips

The Devil Let Me Keep Two Senses
The window is open and from the sky a bright light sends an old memory of you, to me. Layers of blankets lay scattered widely across your room, draping off your bed Soft Yellow lights fall from the roof and shine a heavenly glow around your head That night the moon captured two wounded strangers laying there Whispering and laughing, allowing their secrets to be captured by the air. Time faded away I held onto the moon too tight So as I sit, reflecting on the night I notice how badly I miss those yellow lights

Yellow lights
Did I fall into a void for a minute while I was thinking? Did I suddenly disappear away from here while I was blinking? For so long my absence has played tricks on my mind I was living every second and yet I forgot to breath I was totally present and yet completely unaware I am here and there and everywhere Where am I now? Who am I? Have I lost all memory or worse Have I changed? Like the leaves in fall or the shedded skin of a snake I leave an old safe behind in my wake. And all I feel is fear.

And yet the sun still rises
My intake took your fuel and ran it threw to this carburetor and disguised itself as a brain. It took all the information thrown at it and combined it together, then a little spark caused an explosion, which led me here: I stood idle and held myself in the ice cold rain, Water began dripping down on my shivering frame. Each drop adding a beat like a song’s surrounding pound, Running thoughts drown out into a long forgotten sound. Pulling the handle I choose to release this body's soul. And I strike solid like a nut whose free from the tool, And land with a force derived from deep set desires. Finally free from the strong grips of deadly pliers. My soul is free, therefore it no longer seems to mind That I drove away and left my lonely nut behind And there it remains in the heat of the black asphalt Sinking into the earth because of mine own ****** faults.

Freedom from the system
Countless times while scrolling down a screen I've come across a glistening smile From a girl who's wishing to be seen I'll stare at her portrait for a while Then read what she’s left for all to see And contemplate the hypocrisy Of her wonderful philosophy Which she has laid out in front of me. We seem to have a million ways to live A thousand different techniques That teach us how to thrive A billion different people, And it all comes to this: That no one can find Happiness

She shows the pain in her eyes
For you I shall search wearily through this night unill the lonesome loathing I’ve named darkness fades away. For you I shall brave the bright oncoming light that your scorched sky shall send my way. Oh, that I might grow to have the might to hold you tenderly, forever in my sight Your kiss, which burns red onto my skin; burning with that lust that they describe to us as sin. May it never leave, but to remain to remind me that our love is pain. I sustain to every second And every second I am held subject to my blinding queen Evening comes eventually. when you return, know me by my mark: Buried in Ash I shall breath as the only burning ember of bark.
