Difference has been seen
Old has been gone
History has been written
No editing at all
Unlaced it from your skin
Frame it as your prize
Learn from it &
Apply it in your life
Catch the glittering future
Leave the fading past
Hold onto your dreams
Start your journey with pride
Same is bland , spice is nice
Ups & downs , Glad or glum
Cherish them all, you'll be fine
Relish all way long , that's life
Walls will be laced up
sooner than blink of an eye
Then you'll complete
the journey of your life
That would be the last
Lace of your life .
It's ok to not have people to inspire you be your own inspiration. I deny to end life with regrets.
From nothing but

Cerebral constructs

Mind becoming

Matter

Spontaneously

Combusts.

I was too long in the dark
Craving the sky to run my lips over.
I never owned a sun
So I set myself on fire.
(And now I burn in desire)
It's dark,
Shaun Morgan is bellowing into my ears that he's reliving the same experiences over and over,
That nothing's forever.

The flick of a bic,
The taste of tobacco and ash,
Filling my lungs and giving my brain a buzz,
And in this sleepless night I'm inclined to agree with him,
Nothing lasts forever,
So what are you waiting for?
The disembodied
Voice from the
Sisters’ counter
Echoing down the twisted corridor:
Ma left yesterday. The house, no house.
Wanted to do the night duty.
At least, got some company here.

The house
stands open to the weather.
Walls cracked;
roof collapsing
A mildewed teddy bear
moulders
in the crumbling fireplace.

Woodwormed floorboards;
rotting stairs.
Glass in the windows
shattered
like broken dreams
and everywhere
the sour smell
of regret
and lost ambition.

No idea what to call this.  Any offers welcome.  For this posting I also changed to regret in the penultimate line instead of decay.  I wonder if this is better?
You initiate my heart to swell
Up with love
As time went on
Love  was terminated
By your curiosity
Now I must start anew
So what if I miss you
Nothing lasts forever, does it?
