i've never felt
more alone
than when
you leave
without
warning
Short.

What if at the very end we were asked?
What if at the very end we were offered?
A chance , a one of a kind opportunity..
To do it all again.
All of IT,
With one catch!

Not to do a single thing differently,
to lose all the knowledge we gained,
and start over as if we were never there!

And we took it simply because
we hoped there would be hope.

We took it because we were stupid enough to *Hope.

Somewhere inside my soul,
There lies my faith in the world.
I try to believe in the empty,
But there’s nothing to see.
I try to live intellectually,
But therein no logic to me.
I wish to see the world for what it is,
But I mistake it's beauty for the ugliness with in.
I feel like my sight has lost its way,
While looking for something To believe is true.

I have a friend,
and a friend she maybe.
Though life’s grasp has a hold on her,
She does the same to me.
We stand at the edge of a forgotten road,
looking back at mistakes of past lives untold.
I have a friend,
a friend she may be.
But sometimes I don't see how she can be a friend to me..

In and out, life has now surely run out
you came in with a cry, bowed out with a smile
Your last act is what you made it out to be and aspire
Your life’s work is what it is and where it will forever be
In and out, your life has passed and another’s has begun,
You are no longer forgotten, you had a good run!

I am an idea thought up.
I am an idea forgotten.
I was a thought heard.
I am a thought  forgotten.
I am what you could’ve been.
I am the song of your heart.
I am a song unheard.
I am erased and forgotten.

Greet me!

You think you know me
You think you’ve seen me

Praise me!

For I am a hero with my own might,
I am a savior in my own right.

Love me!

For I am Love,
and I am a vision of him

Fear me!

For you think you know me
You think you’ve seen me
You think I’m your hero
but in truth; I’m no one’s hero but everyone's last step before the fall
