I stagger in desolation
To find you in isolation
Doomed was I, to want that which cannot be 
They tell me, ‘beware!’ 
They not know of the depth of you

They tell me, ‘a love you shall not utter,
my dear, you cannot alter!’ 
I tell them what a sweet sweet living they waste
Not to have their heart beat for you 

They ordained me to change the ballad 
They showed me the way to Lethe 
I sang the only ballad my heart fathoms
And showed them my way to Acheron

So in anguish, I dwell!
To solely love you
In the abyss of my heart

But the illusion of us 
Is all there is 
A secret garden you are 
Behind the door of my soul 

To you.Out there.

i know that i tend
to over-think the new
year, as if a single day
will change my entire
life. but you know, what
if. What if, and what's wrong?
what's wrong with believing the
new year will be the start of something
wonderful? Let me tell you;
it is okay to have such hopes
and be afraid of them too.

i understand how people are different
and get confused
misinterpreation
translation
interceptions
switching places
propaganda
communicating and not really
telling the truth
jaded
and persuaded
by those around
influenced
by their decisions
their power
their will
somehow we end up in the same place
together
it just keeps going
Slowly, Slowly
She lost her mind
All her pain is kept inside
Surely, Surely
They can't see
All her tears are drowning me
They flow down from her soul
The years pass by as wrinkles show
Simply, Simply
She breathes a sigh
All her life is stopped in time
Sadly, Sadly
They won't leave
All her ghosts that are haunting me
They chant their screams like lullabies
The sound goes on throughout the night
She weeps, I drown
She breathes, I choke
All my love, my heart she broke
She runs, I fall
She leaves, I die
All her pain becomes my cries
Slowly, Slowly
She lost her mind
All her pain is kept inside
Surely, Surely
They can't see
All her tears are drowning me
an immorality of words
from a hypocrisy of humans
pretending to live a truth
with a lie underlying the illusion
collusion in revolution
the only way we have to prove
that life is what you choose
we never chose the chosen few of them

 Dec 2013 oaks i kill
Nick M
my pencil taps like a metronome against the wood that is my desk
each second being counted by my mind longing for the sound of the blaring bell
to indicate it's time to move on, I play the waiting game all day
sitting alone in the corner of the room, every couple minutes dazing out the window into the scenery
all the kids in the classroom mindlessly talking away, my ears focusing in and out of conversations
not because I want to hear but instead because I'm forced, their mouths blaring like sirens off a firetruck
I sit here, thoughts eating me away like always waiting for the day to come to an end,
waiting for the time I get to myself to lay in bed and stare up at the ceiling for seemingly no reason at all
I feel more lonely than ever, the feeling that no body cares or has any genuine interest in me anymore,
the feeling that my friends hate me and even if they say they don't I won't believe them
the feeling that I just want to lay here and wait for the day to come where I go to sleep and don't wake up
but I want to live, I want to see the next day and hope that something happens, something of a miracle
maybe everything will come together one day, and that's what I'm hoping for
but until then, here in my bed I will lay pondering of what good things may come
I just hope they come soon
