What causes it? For reality and delusions to get warped into one Is it the crippling solitude of the darkness? Is it the heavy weight of abuse? Or perhaps the decay of never being seen When does the soul die? Does it die when shrouded by abandoned night, Does it die when no one sees the life that beats? Or perhaps does it die, when there's no love to be found A slow descent it is, One stained by unseen tears, unheard howls.... Is it madness to succumb to the one true love, The one that accepts all, Understands everything, But still embraces you Ah', the pain, it turns to pleasure How it aches with life I no longer feel cold.... I feel nothing but bliss, so please, my new friend Don't abandon me You and darkness are all I have left

Madness
Bitter night, resentful howls of the abyss Once a frightening omen turned lifesaver, Now your deafening silence once more plagues me Why have you turned your back on me, Why does your company now make my heart ache, The sweet sound of relief, now turned to a bombarding reminder In pursuit of the dawn, I said farewell to you But the chaos of life has brought us back together Despite the sun shining upon me, I feel no warmth nor hope Bitter night, resentful howl of the abyss, At least I still have you in this drowning solitude The night always waiting to keep me company once the sun sets Until eternity at long last binds us forever

Bitter Night
In a world of chaos, you eventually became balace You became the center of gravity amidst the sea of flaming chaos A dose of reality that set the laws of light So tell me then, dear friend, when did you go from being my sun to being the black hole that destroys all? Was it when you demanded more energy from a collapsing star? Is it my fault for not showing more weakness? Should I have asked for more? Could I have asked for help.... Or was I simply to weak, another consume; My shine to weak, for the flame that consumes all within reach of the Supernova

Dear Friend
Oh abyss, Why must you be so addictive The embrace never felt, The love never reciprocated, This is the yearnings of the unheard For salvation For enlightenment For all, but reality The dear abyss of the unknown

Abyss
Love, thy double edge blade Pierces the depths of my soul It sets the world a' blaze The warmth that thaws even my frozen heart Yet, thy blade destroys the equilibrium It makes me impulsive, reckless, fearless of the abyssal darkness How can one not be consumed by the temptation of the warmth? The flames that light up the night, are also the flames that consume all reason Oh love, thy embrace is as wicked as it is salvation itself Is this madness? Is this real? Why does the beat of my own heart surprise me? You wicked fiend, although bittersweet I'm grateful to feel such warmth Oh love, my double edge blade

Oh Love
The Great will fall The Failures shall rise And what once was, will never come to be again Lines are being drawn, Sides being chosen As unity self-destructs for rebirth; What is true? What is a false illusion? The righteous, the evil, and all the in-between, None will matter as Humanity's worse is dragged out unto the daylight No more secrets No more denial There's no where to run So I'll embrace this shitshow This sick joke of reality, with open arms I'll draw my own lines and choose my own side Not for victory, do I take a a steeled step forward; I will not fight for self-righteous falsehoods But for my own freedom to simply be Simply being and letting be, Something that the world seems to have forgotten

To Be
**** people, literally and figuratively Be yourselves because nothing's promised in this life, Not life, Not death, Nor happiness nor agony So live life to the fullest, To please the only God y'all should give a **** about; Yourselves Be happy, Be sad, Be in agony, Be in love But above all else, Continue to be human because you only have one life And no amount of regret or wishful thinking will turn back the sands of time And time itself is fleeting, Ever more reason to enjoy life while you can

**** All
I'm a fraud A liar An utter mess I keep on walking, smiling, trying Yet to what end is this all for? Hope, dreams, and aspirations are of no worth to those dead inside It doesn't matter how hard one tries, that twinkle will never return to our eyes In our solitude are we with kindred souls Through tears, we smile For the remembrance of our precious beat do we trudge on I'm not alone in my suffrage Though not my intent, do the lies spout For those who still have that twinkle Whom still have the beat of life within For the love that tethers me to them Such are the lies told; Of excitement for the next dawn Of aspirations for the future Of hope for tomorrow

The Lies We Tell
Dark misfortune may gather up above, Bleak clouds that shower and beat the oblivious earth Dread, Pain, and Despair soak and pool together Yet know that this will pass, though the trials are rough and unbearing It's essential for life Wrath may strike across the heavens And as hope is overshadowed by Anguish There's no escape from the dark days This too is essential for life, for rebirth In time the heavens will be pierced by the rays of life The pools will fade, the winds will settle, and the silence of peace will return The storms will concede, the sun will shine once more The stars will still be there twinkling and gleaming The reward for endearing the dark stormy days, Is the profound beauty of life all around; Life isn't only joy and sunlight It's also endearing the hard times

Hard Times
A gem multifaceted Different avenues, different worlds? To fail is to succeed, to succeed is to die What do you do when both heaven and hell reject you? Do you cry indignation? Do you beg forgiveness? Or do you do nothing? A gem upon the heavens, one that shines but only in the night A star that shines only within the shadows? To be reborn is to forsake, to stay is to condemn What do you do when there is no way to move? Stay stagnant and a relic? Risk it for rebirth? A celestial being with potential tainted Too bleak to shine upon the heavens Too bright to shine within the cesspool So do you fade away? NO! You shine upon the heavens! Purify the cesspool! Rise or descend upon it all! A Fallen Star answers to none but helps all! A Fallen Star is what we are! Failure and hope in one The children that neither HELL nor HEAVEN saves The children that shine through it all; Dust, darkness, hail, or sunshine The Fallen Stars shine bright, not for the sake of Heaven nor Hell But for themselves That's what makes us Falling Stars
