ThomasRichardBurge - Hello Poetry

"I pondered the orb all night. The heat forced a mental delirium upon me, one that was not forthcoming but instead caused an unexpected revelation in my mind’s eye, through which the question of “Who is the second betrayal?” was brought into being. The orb could not withstand such a cosmic response; my mere mortality and place within the vast sea of the cosmos were brought before a council and questioned by an omnipotent force. It left me lying in a cloud of unrest and sweat, from soul to skin, awake against my body’s wishes—a rest I longed for and sought comfort in, for I am only a man, in body and mind, spirit and soul, who defied kings and dared to question gods. And now I pay the price. May mercy be granted unto me, and may sheets of forgiveness wrap around me in my final and darkest hour. I close my eyes to see the darkness. Is it bliss or terror? Only I will know that."

I dont think I can write anymore I dont know the words I dont know how much more blood and ink I can pour I dont want to try I'd rather just lay here Give up and die I dont want to fight Get out of my face Get out of my sight The demons are here In the shadows below The darkness of night They hide from the light Causing me pain Haunting my head Controlling my brain Am I alive or dead? I'm going insane Depression is real Is this all I am is this how I really feel?

Depression

I dont think I can write anymore I dont know the words I dont know how much more blood and ink I can pour I dont want to try I'd rather just lay here Give up and die I dont want to fight Get out of my face Get out of my sight The demons are here In the shadows below The darkness of night They hide from the light Causing me pain Haunting my head Controlling my brain Am I alive or dead? I'm going insane Depression is real Is this all I am is this how I really feel?

Ive come so far Yet I fear I've failed Survived the storm Why does it proced to hail? I did it for me Mostly for you But its not just us now Because 1 became 2 3 is on the way And I'm scared I'm not enough More storms keep brewing Why is this so tough? I'm a big strong man With a mind so weak and frail I can survive the storm But I died to the hail

I'm a big strong man With a mind so weak and frail I can survive the storm But I died to the hail

The town of Fal A curious place You'll never learn every street You'll never know every face For the town lays deep within the forests heart And leaving this town wouldnt be very smart With trees like guardians who control and and stare Like a God watching, the forest is always there Darkness and shadow with a crimson green glow The forests always listening, the forests always knows Dormant it stands like an echo from the past Fal shall meet the forest mother at last She calls from the shadow, she dances in the mist She yurns for you to wander to close to the abyss She is the heart of the forests, a mother from beyond this space The town of Fal Such a curious place

The unfortunate forest of Fal

The town of Fal A curious place You'll never learn every street You'll never know every face For the town lays deep within the forests heart And leaving this town wouldnt be very smart With trees like guardians who control and and stare Like a God watching, the forest is always there Darkness and shadow with a crimson green glow The forests always listening, the forests always knows Dormant it stands like an echo from the past Fal shall meet the forest mother at last She calls from the shadow, she dances in the mist She yurns for you to wander to close to the abyss She is the heart of the forests, a mother from beyond this space The town of Fal Such a curious place

Tomorrow's never promised But you make today last forever Words haven't been invented to describe how i feel Otherworldly, ethereal, shivers down my spine Blood, sweat and tears Go in to the perfect line You're the fire I'm the match I'm the rose you're the sun You're the best book I've read And I'm only on chapter one Tattooed on my heart Your name stuck deep A dream come true Am I awake or asleep? Good days bad days I'm yours always

Tomorrow's never promised But you make today last forever Words haven't been invented to describe how i feel Otherworldly, ethereal, shivers down my spine Blood, sweat and tears Go in to the perfect line You're the fire I'm the match I'm the rose you're the sun You're the best book I've read And I'm only on chapter one Tattooed on my heart Your name stuck deep A dream come true Am I awake or asleep? Good days bad days I'm yours always

Hold still while you swallow your pride Let me capture this moment When we found out you lied Cheated, manipulated Your way to the top Tell me when the lies will stop I'd hear your words But there hollow and thin All these lies But you still didn't win

Lies

Hold still while you swallow your pride Let me capture this moment When we found out you lied Cheated, manipulated Your way to the top Tell me when the lies will stop I'd hear your words But there hollow and thin All these lies But you still didn't win

You find comfort in my presence A familiar feeling you can't explain Warm yet fuzzy you'd describe my look Like you've been here before Take a closer look Does something seems off ? Am I not what you thought? You can't explain This uncomfortable feeling Now puzzled at my presence Was it all just a lie? Take a closer look

Billions wandering lost in the abyss Millions live on not knowing they exist Thousands sit alone in the dark Hundreds every minute loose their spark Ten or more don't know what to do It ends and it begins only with you

I look upon death Because I'm scared of the present The pressure of life Keeps me Holding on to better times When I was happy Because in the now I'm scared of everything And never happy But when I look upon That past that I lived Loved even My glasses have clarity But even when I look back Death still lingering In my memorys

Upon death
