Yes,  the time has come, not to begin or to end anything
But for me to fall, fall from a blinding height in to the depths of darkness and fear
Looking over my shoulders, I realize how much things have changed
A boy who lost his way or tried to find a way while growing up
Truth made me realize the things that i can hold and what I've been sold
And the things that were sold to me are far more than what i can hold now
Deluded before, enlightened now, but nothing has changed
I find myself at the same place where it all began
A place where there is nothing, but emptiness that ***** the life out of me
So cold and alone, wounded and scarred, fighting a battle that was already lost
Something inside me is waiting to die or is already dead
May be it's the dreams, the joy and all that makes me "me"
I no longer feel anything,just going through the motions, a dead man walking
Wearing a mask made up of pride, lies and deception
Time for me to drown in to the ocean of uncertainty and hope I will be saved
This dreaded journey I must take to slay my demons and to make peace with my past
It's time for me to fall as the sky crumbles and everything falls apart
This is the end.
I am a dry well.  Tangleweeds
grow in my gut; spin there, growing;
rise in my throat and choke me; and
spill from my mouth, stretching somewhere.
Humans pass by me, offer glances,
then rescind them.  The young ones--
the little ones--stare longest.
Though in all my imaginings
I have not quite felt like a person,
I know the question in their minds:
"Why is that thing still there?
Nobody uses it anymore."

My knuckles have turned to white,
From gripping the bar so tight.
Plunging ever faster through the night,
I abandon all - restraint, fear, sight.
                         ----
Bouncing blindly, I grimace,
Not from pain, but sudden bliss.
The pang of perception leaves me breathless,
Was I really so faithless to miss this?
                           --
I see now what I've forgot,
That my worry's all for naught.
Trust in that eternal, stems the onslaught
Of uncertainty with which life is fraught.
                            -
‎"I broke my heart once ,
Shattered pieces lying around ....
Now I find it in
a childs eyes ,
Sometimes in a strangers smile
In a flower or a bee
In every breath ..
It lives
eternally " .
Crimson lips stain
cigarette ends-
    meet, never sufficient,
    never worth-
        while you lie
        next to me
        in my bed,
        in your tomb,
        on my lips
        the stain of death
artistic strokes of a brush, mountians blue, a rivers rush,wind blown trees and daffadills, you paint the sky to meet the hill's,mixing colors gray and white, paint a cloud, reflect the light, a motionless child lost in time, artistic strokes all in your mind, reflect the earth and steal it's plunder, a rain soaked night filled with thunder. a blustery wind blows threw the trees, a ship afar on rolling seas, you see the light and paint the sun,your brilliant work has just begun, you stroke the canvas with love and pride, now we know whats deep inside.
Sometimes life stands still,
Like the moment before a breath.
Inhale, exhale, repeat.
Potential behind each beat.

The reflection of the rain at night
Mirrors our tiny lives.
Blurred and seemingly unending,
But washed away by morning light.

Lost in oblivion, devoid of emotions
Sadness inexplicable and feelings senseless
Dreams shattered and people left
A sense of apathy persists
Self realization has took it's toll
The vision is blank and future looks bleak
So cold and desolate, a superficial robot
That cries out for help inside
No guilt, No conscience, No worries
Nothing, but nothingness remains
just wanted to write and let it out....not coherent or well articulated....
to engage in vocal
agony
leaves no repose

& we've fought as far
as the altercation
goes

now please my
dear



won't you leave me
to my own?



I'll place my gilded cape
on the ground

& step far from
our throne
