i go to funerals
without shedding a single tear
i've looked the devil in the eyes
and i've been touched by demons
i've died inside so many times
and bled out more than i count
and you think
i care what you may think of me?
you're mistaken, dear.

standing here on the edge of an island surrounded by a sea of ice to thin to walk on i look up to the stars to if anything can save me but there is nothing the day hides it all but there is one i feel its connection with me and so i wait for the night once it arrive i see it clear now this bright orange star casting it light down on to the ice and with out a thought i follow it's light and there it leads me to safety in a garden of flower and fruits i'm now so tired i just wish to collapses  but i don't i lie down on this soft grass in this garden staring up at the sky
this is just an idea that came to me to give a story to the poem of mine the stars

i lay here on the soft grass staring up at the stars now dotting the crystal sky my eyes set in stone staring at one impressive one this one is not like the others it sits there burn a beautiful orange almost feeling me with a fire i feel the sparks igniting my soul and for now i'm filled and connected with that star

these feeling once o so faded return in a fury sparking and shocking every part of me it hurts the rush the return the feeling once thought to be forgotten by me overwhelm me and push me beyond I no longer understand why they return the only answer is love

As some fly others fall
As love rises darkness falls
For those who love light the way and those in darkness fade away
For in love the light glows strong and in darkness it is but all gone
For with love comes joy and darkness comes misery
Yet still the people in darkness grow and the one in light slow fade
For there is now end to the cycle of darkness and light
When the light falls darkness rise
And then it begins yet again

For those who love light the way and those in darkness fade away
For in love the light glows strong and in darkness it is but all gone
For with love comes joy and darkness comes misery

In the golden light of the morning sun the fires still glow gold
With the fury of greed on the hills now dowsed in red and gold
Now as the corpses lay still and cold with the lust for gold expelled from their souls
And slowly as the final fall with the greed of gold still burning deep within their souls
For now the battle has dulled and the gold now darken by the blood of those who fell in their lust for gold.
