where once I had a choice to shine
long ago the desire
I find I now have this need
to rhyme

once upon the day
where memories
reside now
in close distance, a cemetary,

a crematory shall be awaiting
my body soon,
a part of life
I've seen flowers bloom

in glory then the next day be gone,
friends aqcuaintances
smile
then their faces done.

life is temporal,
and so speculating on the end,
I find peace somehow,
recommend it to you all!

It starts with a tickle to my heart
tries to gently push my lips apart

I resist, much to it's consternation,
not giving in to it's polite provocation

It bounces around in my brain, so distracting!
Ever so slowly I feel my discipline cracking

My heart starts to race, my eyes turn to steel
I must stand my ground!  I simply can't yield!

You look into my eyes
sigh
my last defense broken...
How could I ever have stopped these words being spoken?

I love you
.
When you say "I love you" far too much and try to hold it back from time to time

We are of knowledge and the stars..
      
                    but ignorance keeps us on the ground....
freedom of thought is an excellent motivator
              

                     when not hindered by the words of stupidity....

I am ****** because I believed that load of ****.
I am ****** because they said they loved me.
They would have let me die, did you know that?

Sinking under the surface of the norm.
Lacking air , life leaving my body.

I hate them for leaving me to die and judging me still.

For reasons of the unknown,
what is it about the snakes charm...

Could it be the hypmatising eyes,
that makes one feel paralized...

Could it be the hissing sounds,
that sometimes numbs the mind....

Could it be the site of it's fangs,
that keeps you near...

Could it be the bite of might,
which now the venom flows...

Your time could be near,
as you get feelings of fear...

The snake has now charmed you,
so what do u do...

Let the feelings hurt you,
because your time is due...

Life's moments that sparkle
          like fireflies,
are the brightest
              that shine in the darkest of times.


*Cherish them....

Vivisection of now sunken residue
         even though woven in unsighted glares

She graces her surrounding with afterimages
         of what was, but now only sees inwards.

All is witnessed without viewing reflection.
          Perceiving the world through hands of oblivion.

Devotion drowning in oblivion,
                 Hearts slice open a vein....

                           Cold essence
of what once beat for you....
