I. A sun deemed resplendent, bearing only a fraudulent shine The only luster it holds yields shabby verses and lines A weary heart wishing for chosen eyes to descry unwritten letters An exhausted mind yearning to rid of the demon's loud chatters II. A desire to commence a mutiny, A desire to spark a rebellion Engage in a war with army tanks riding domesticated stallions Efforts remain futile, feeble are all attacks Skulls remain unbroken after a thousand thwacks III. A posture resembling a colossal monument A name etched temporarily on the copious firmament What's strong is not, what's loud is quiet Who stares at the gun craves for the lethal bullet IV. A new flesh has developed out of nothing but grime Layers of filth has accumulated on what once was prime Daggers have been thrown, arrows had been fired To seek for an escape is urgent as it is dire V. All goodbyes shunned in exchange for a longer lullaby A dying crow ready to leap off a ravine, ready to fly Not all apologies were said, not all gratitude were expressed The ninety-nine shall remain suppressed VI. Darkness was the light and the light was incessantly sought A soul beyond repair, a concert of tumultuous thoughts Temporary is the peace during slumbers Eternal it is if the bed is six feet under

Farewell
I. A sun deemed resplendent, bearing only a fraudulent shine The only luster it holds yields shabby verses and lines A weary heart wishing for chosen eyes to descry unwritten letters An exhausted mind yearning to rid of the demon's loud chatters II. A desire to commence a mutiny, A desire to spark a rebellion Engage in a war with army tanks riding domesticated stallions Efforts remain futile, feeble are all attacks Skulls remain unbroken after a thousand thwacks III. A posture resembling a colossal monument A name etched temporarily on the copious firmament What's strong is not, what's loud is quiet Who stares at the gun craves for the lethal bullet IV. A new flesh has developed out of nothing but grime Layers of filth has accumulated on what once was prime Daggers have been thrown, arrows had been fired To seek for an escape is urgent as it is dire V. All goodbyes shunned in exchange for a longer lullaby A dying crow ready to leap off a ravine, ready to fly Not all apologies were said, not all gratitude were expressed The ninety-nine shall remain suppressed VI. Darkness was the light and the light was incessantly sought A soul beyond repair, a concert of tumultuous thoughts Temporary is the peace during slumbers Eternal it is if the bed is six feet under
