Thoughts Of Ether
Cory Jay Aug 2016
_______
What’s the meaning when you’re living to die?
Worthless when all your possessions fry
When the world strips you naked and you got nothing left,
Passion can always be found in one’s breath,
So now analyze... they ask me why?
To relieve sadness, to tell what I don’t speak about.
A bunch of starters but never a finisher, never diving deeper.
Open more eyes to humbleness, and how cruel the world is,
To make someone become what they have always hated.
Truly just want belonging, and recognition.
A way to mend scars and restore my once bright picture.
Respected by those I despise, as tarnished lies settle in my own eyes.
I is stopping me but myself also fuels the dream.
Going on when it’s hard, but giving up when it’s impossible.
Maybe I fear the word "I'm possible". But when action and words don’t combine
All that’s left is a thread of hope on a thin line.
Alone in the city singing a suppressed song,
You can’t be depressed in a life that’s not very long.

Alienated
Cory Jay Aug 2016
In time it seems sweet dreams never come easy
A sad song on repeat, My soul grows sleepy.
Who am I.. but an alien among the alien-nation
Known only to the unknown
Solitude is all they've known.
Listen Closer and you'll maybe hear,
the metronome of a heart, carved into a cave.
Hollow and dark, Imagine it inside out.
Still the same, But only now it's surrounded by Light.
what Seems remade isn't all that remains.
But a chip too, from the old dark.
still and soft; it still strikes the spark.
The sound is the Sounds of distant echos...thundering, Wandering and Wondering,
Close my eyes and picture Memories so vivid, although they have aged so very much...
They still bring joy and tears to my eyes.
Unexplainable. its such a beautiful, Bitter sweet life.

— The End —
