One
A hundred billion people have lived and died before me

Yet why am I
The one

Where did they all fall too?
The dust we breath
Inhale

It makes you think a different way
Past families
Earth to earth
You read a different story now
I'm so not from this plan

So now I have your thought's in mine
I wonder where you are?
Do you now think I'll do my best?
Will you now be ?

One

7 billion live amongst me

I know my markers made
The dust that waits our hill
to fill
Can wait another day

This land we thing that owes us all
Yet money rules our head
A figure lied in death and life
To steal our daily bread

I'm told our life's in H2o
As all we are
Blows dust
My Inner me fears not
This world
For this I am
The one

The silence in the sun spread a smile  
Fields of green,gold and red lay before me
Birds in flight still new to the breeze
Swayed and sang to my rested heart

This is my England
The place my breath was born
A world within a universe
A place I call my home

Chatter from my fellow man
As liquid filled our souls
This garden lay before us
The pub our other throne

This is my England
The land I take my steps
A love for living life here  
A place I call my home

My thought a week is over
A drink like Friday's do
The rest from all this madness
Relax with friendly hue  
  
This is my England
The land that we do best
A life for living be here
Home sweet home
I bless

The clouds have come to the sea of
my mind
Light dulled to a tiny flicker
With the end of the world waiting my
fall
In with the waves I sweep like no
other
Lost to the wash I crash to the burn

To drown in ones self pity cares me
not
For my map has blurred
Torn and battered
With no route to aim

Ahh this life all my life
This time takes my time
Sadness comes ready  
All ready
For the reach
All ready
Takes my breath
The dream is over
andy fardell Jul 2013
The bed lay warm as my eyes turned
to black
I wanted to hear the silence

But the match went on
My pillow hid nothing
Below

Stop is all I prayed
Nothing fixed
Yet all comes broken

My yearn for the peace
From volumes that cried me
Soon the silence

My look
Their view
These poor people that see
No better
For they are the broken angels
They are the lost not found
The devil in his weakness

A clap drowns out
my sound

Such pity rains me over
For I can see the sun
I can taste the water
I can sense the fresh winds of spring
For I have lived
I have stood
I am me

All life returns to the earth
One day my mark will have faded

So I bring a little smile knowing
That I have spawned the ground
behind me
I have drank the water from the
gods
I have written for the future
I have learned and I have
loved    

My world is very small right now

The face that stares before me
Red and angry
All lost to gain from the thumb to my
afterlife
For I care not
As my work is done
Feathers float before my look
My last look
andy fardell Jul 2013
Tick of the time as minutes washed
away
This weight upon these shoulders
spread inside me
My dark came so quick

A crimson black that caught my breath
by its beauty
The time to blood on
was near
The time for worry faded
I was ready

They say fear infests a passion
To fight for love
To live a life
To hold
Yet my hunger swept this smile away
And my thirst to drink you dry
Became me

My eyes felt so lonely
Was it the look that I never saw
Maybe the view hidden from my wall
Or just the looking down watching these feet
Drew my drawl

I wanted no one to see
The look in my window
Hidden
Shameful in my mind
The world felt heavy

So this is the way
No looks about
This chin stays low
And loneliness friends me  
No harm
