Over the water I fly
So be it
Through these wings I see them
Boys to become men
Men to fall old
Eyes to close for a countries fight
Never to return
Lest we forget

Billowing stacks of fumes fill me
Thousands upon thousands of mini islands
Floating away from their mothers womb
Dunkirk's morning is ready
Sand from the beaches in a foreign
Glistening
Waiting
Offering a hope that there is a tomorrow
Lest we forget

In the after much blood has been spilt
To many decisions have faltered
Yet come my demise from the great war
My purpose came
I know what these wings hold
I know how they fly
I know how they care
For the next
Lest we forget

Now as age creeps upon me I look back
I see the failed,fighting staled to a shortened breath
Redden eyes become my flooded floor
A storm rages within me for the loss of our past
For the waste of lost future
For the pain that I've seen
For the wars that I've witnessed
For the love of pure greed

LEST WE FORGET

The psychology of a woman's mind

William James Crowell

The psychology of a woman's mind

when I was young
I learned mathematics
I applied how to multiply and divide

but
I find now
I just philosophize
trying to grasp the psychology of a womans mind

but
i find now
im with puzzled eyes
trying to grasp the psychology of a womans mind

Orchid

God, look at you
Veins bluer than blue
With a surface more delicate than I ever knew
Straight from the stem your lovely buds grew
How could this world hold a beauty so true?

:: The Waiting Ignorants ::

full of nothing
and full of colours
are those balloons
ignorant they jump around
not knowing where to go next
waiting to be bursted

full of independence
and full of lives
are those cats
ignorant they jump around
with their '*******' attitude
waiting to die

full of joy
and full of ideas
are those kids
ignorant they jump around
discovering the world
waiting to grow

bursting, dying, growing
those are the blessed ones
living for the instant
the waiting ignorants

Broken hearts and shattered headlights.

Broken hearts and shattered headlights.

I'll keep the pain away from you,
My love.
Hurt is something I'll do never,
My love.
But one night,
I lost my love forever.
Motionless, she laid on the side of the road.
How she left,
The story unfolds.
Fore a drunk driver had taken her life.
My one true love,
My perfect wife.
A ****** scene it was.
One as if there were no one above.
The stains on the windshield,
I got out and cried.
As I slowly walked over,
To see if she was alright...

Go To Bed, Or End Up Dead?

Go To Bed, Or End Up Dead?

I'm bleeding and breaking,
and look at me shaking.
Funny how triggering
the seemingly benign can be.
For once I had a good day,
why must it end this way?

Oh, you stupid insomniac...
Staying awake all night only
makes me feel more lonely.

Everyone is sleeping
while my heart
I stop from beating~

I stay awake and let my thoughts echo
until they're all that's left of me.

Up in the Clouds

Prodigy

Up in the Clouds

I’m slipping, sliding,
right into the dark.
I’m twisting, turning,
falling apart.
 I’m flying, soaring,
up in the clouds.
I’m running, sprinting
across the grounds.

I’m hiding, shrinking,
under the stairs.
I’m searching, seeking,
looking nowhere.

I’m laughing, joking,
having some fun.
I’m talking, shouting,
telling no one.

I’m crying, sobbing,
drying my tears.
I’m leaping, jumping,
crashing down here.

I’m dying, living,
both at once.
I’m thinking, learning,
what the world wants.

I’m sleeping, dreaming,
all in my head.
I’m waking, blinking
here in my bed.
