Boy in the still pond
He looks at me with those eyes
And knows… we are alone

David J Jul 4

I had that nightmare again... I remember your eyes
That choice I was forced to make who lives... who dies

Never forgive me, gentle stranger... for what you endured
Taking the fall, so that all life that night was secured

The fate I forced and will always regret
my karma chasing me in dreams I can't forget

That look you gave me shook me to the bone
Those eyes of pity for whom I could never atone

I was once in a terrible position at work, police on the line and decisions to make. I could ***** at the grave choices I was forced to take. It's clear in story's but muddy in strife. Was it worth hurting the innocent to save an evil man's life...
Why couldn't you just hate me... im so sorry, im really really sorry. I wish you hated me. It makes it so much worse... knowing how kind you were.

I still feel sick

Kippers’ Kove

Theres a place at the edge of the sea
Drawing you in while your woes flee

The people are warm and gentle as tea
Where drifters are welcome, yet leave you be

There oft smiling bright, a mayor… or three
Ha yes… odd but ever caring, a true family

So why not drift over, please come on down
Theres always a place for you here, our Kove Town.

Kove Town

Theres a place at the edge of the sea
Drawing you in while your woes flee

The people are warm and gentle as tea
Where drifters are welcome, yet leave you be

And smiling bright a mayor… or maybe three
I find the more the merrier in this family

So why not drift over, please come on down
Theres always a place for you here, our Kove Town.

A cold bed

This is the first night
That I understand it now
My bed… it feels cold.

What a terrible feeling….

Don’t meet me

I kept us waiting…
I’m sorry…. I’m struggling
Please… don’t forgive me

I know your out there… and thats its me were waiting on… but.. I… im too scared to see you yet. Scared because I already know im unworthy. How selfish I am… it just proves it to me more.
“That I should never meet you…”

So far down…

Oh thirsty boy…
Thrown himself in the well
Learned how to drink
Until his belly would swell

Oh thirsty boy…
At the the bottom he stands
greedy for more
Scarring his hands

Oh thirsty boy…
Does not try to climb
Rather dig through the mud
Seeking water in the grime

Oh thirsty man…
He knows where he’s been
He’s still there now
To far down this hole of sin…

“Why… Oh. Why was there no grates, no walls, no barrier to entry. Seek and you shall find, so why has no one shut the doors…. I look up defeated, my hands to bruised to climb.”
