Burnt to coal, wrought and engraved in the flames, Hardened in the ticking clock of all time, The fire ignited by perilous aims, Ashes laying collecting dust and grime, Its cooling into solid hardened ice In the desolate, frigid, windswept, planes. Cruelly spurned by the role of his life's dice, Impervious to another's sharp pains, He seeks to warm his own frozen stone heart. Unhindered by the normal moral qualms That beat upon those who posses a heart. From his **** drenched are his ****** palms. His heart has long since ceased to beat. He roams the shadows, silent, discreet.

Stone Heart
And you scratch and you claw, But you cannot change it; Everything has a flaw.   If only to find it, To fix it, you yearn. Somehow to restore it, The passion just burns.   And when you think back  Some time or another You forgot why it vexed you Just the hurting, recovered.   But on it comes again, A swell so large, overbearing, overwhelming, It knocks you down hard.   Oh the burning And oh the desire To quench to put out The raging fire.   Your hands start to shake. Your knees start to tremble. Your mind leaves you senseless, You no longer resemble   Yourself, your a beast, a monster, a fiend, You look out on the world As it twirls serene.   So much to decide. So much to take in. It  must bend to your forces And make you fit in.    But why try to fit in When no others except you? You know you are right Why let it  effect you?   You turn and answer in an icy growl, “Its not for me to change, Its for them to bow down.”   Ah there is the reason you are pained so. You wish to just always be right, Never grow.   I know your passion, The burning desire. It coursed through my veins, I too breathed the fire.   When finally you accepted it, When finally you realize Your rage  has no effect But to bring you your demise.   The rage will die down But still smolder on. The passion, the fury, Will still play their song.   Control is the answer, Is what you seek. Control of yourself; You must first conquer the weak.   The anger will burn Still down in your soul, But the pain and the sadness Will release their firm hold.

What is the answer? Well truth betold The more thats known The quicker all the lies unfold. Nothing can be proven true By the likes of either me or you. We all have our parts to play. Our own agendas bar our way. The mystery will never end While everyone has Leverage with which to bend. Another's will ****** upon them To ensure their role within the bargain. They fruitlessly try to shift the fate Which belongs to them or their compatriots. For what purpose may we ask? Sacrifice for a lasting love? Leave themselves to martyrdom? Whether they may win or lose, And whether they may live or die, What is truth and what is lies?

The Answer
A word whispered A thought pushing out When should I say it Or speak it out loud? Is it worth the effort This one thought Ushered forth by my soul? Should I or should I not Speak my mind?

What path to take When so many choices lie in our wake? What brought us here To this very spot? Where whether or not We can distinguish from Right or wrong. The choice we make Is the path we take Although we make a Gain or loss The toss of a coin A random thought May shift our fate forever With so many paths Where will we meet our last And come to a deadening end.

Path
The world's injustice flattens you down, Your trapped, stuck, There is no way around. They all say “it'll be okay!” But what do they really mean? They say in time that “you'll be fine!” But thats not what it seems . . . You'll hide it away, Forgotten you say, Till someone touches on the scar. And free at last, The tears will stream fast, And you force them back down your throat, I'm sorry my friend, but, Not all pain mends.
