My heart aches;
And my soul blemished,
I see the pounding in my mind.

My body weakened;
And my guard down,
I let the darkness fill my eyes.

My eyes blank;
And my mouth brittle,
I taste death passing by.

My feet lift from the ground;
With my heart beating,
I smell the smell of being forgotten.

My consciousness lost;
And my hand by my side,
I feel myself falling into oblivion.

My senses astray;
And my figure forgotten,
I hear the silence of the void.

One Day, I flew a Kite. The sun was shining bright.
Then I heard the sea on the wind,
And smelled the places I had been.
My ship had sunk many years ago,
But my life had never ceased to groan.
When despair had gripped me heart and soul, I found myself again in control.
For the tide is a thing that comes, and it goes.

Lightning.
A strike through the dark;
A streak of light, breaking through the night;
A spark from the sky;
An ignition from the clouds;
Cutting across the skies,
Like a bolt of fury, the wrath of light,
Mighty, and strong.
The wrath of lightning;
Blasing, and surging;
Like a sheet of light, pulsing through,
shattering through;
The power of lightning no-one can beat;
The indignation of lightning, a powerful feat.

Sadness; Fills the heart with flames;
Slowly turning into hatred;
Sadness conquers your thoughts;
And leaves you in mid-air.
Your thoughts; Oh your wonderful dreams;
Lies crooked, twisted, contorted;
Your Thoughts;
Like a broken flower,
Lies awake for hours,
With nowhere to think;
Time warps around you,
With teardrops falling down;
Like a thunderstorm heavily, Falling..
Falling...
Falling....
Falling.....
Each second feels longer than the last;
With your mind contorted,
Staggering into the abyss
Your hands tremble, and your eyes shut,
Finally, With no more to cry, And,
Your soul left your body;
Sadness left your mind..  meaningless;

Hatred a vengeful act; a bitter thought.
It spreads like wildfire, everlasting, ever-growing,
Hatred an eternal reflection; where no love can overcome;
It is in every person's heart, waiting- waiting- watching.
Hatred wants to anger, outrage, destroy;
It leaves a person, torn, distraught, empty;
Like a lifeless vengeance, Hatred
Invades;
Kills;
And burns;
All the hearts it comes through.

Somewhere a lifeless body sits in the rain.
Somewhere a creature unknown tears apart.
Somewhere a boy sitting in the rain greaving; crying.
Somewhere a dream tears part their heart;
Somewhere a once anew was filled with sadness;
Somewhere a boy sat broken, shattered, dejected;
Dreams; So joyful, So wondrous, So deceitful'
Dreams; A shattering in the heart, a lifeless body;
Dreams; So innocent, yet corrupting;
Dreams; Leaves your heart severed, beaten;
Dreams; Leaves you crippled, subdued;
Dreams; Ends your soul in one blow, one stroke;
Dreams; The start of your journey, yet also the end;
Dreams; Once held Light turned Dark;
Josh H Nov 2020
The darkness has taken the night;
The world is a fright.
With no hope in sight,

The light has vanished;
The hope gone.
My words blemished;
And my soul has drawn.

The lightning strikes ;
With nowhere to see.
I abandon all tears;
My conscience seeks peace.
My wholeness has gone;
And my light dimmed.

Far too much misery,
Too much noise;
Too much singing, too much song;
Far too empty, too wrong.

— The End —
