I want to be immortal

I want to be immortal
I want to be remembered

The day I’m forgotten
Is the day I die

Inspired by "Glorious"

good intentions

you fought with good intentions
but for all the wrong reasons

"The road to hell is paved with good intentions"

Bend or break

There are different kinds of fragility
One that bends,
And one that breaks

Step on a flower,
It withers

Step on a bomb
It explodes

Be careful with both,
a bomb may be dressed as a flower,
but you won't know until it has blown

To hold up the halo

I took ten lives
to save a thousand

I lost a battle
to win a war

To hold up the halo
I got my horns,
because I cannot take the rose,
without taking all its thorns.

Does the end justify the means?

Well,
can the means justify the end?

the end

There is not a ”the end” to a story.
It’s just that the rest was never written down.

never written down or read

look at the sky

”look at the sky - it’s crying”

”what for?”

”well, why does anyone cry?”

”because there’s too much inside those clouds.
it’s too heavy for them to bear, so the raindrops have to fall.”

Stormy night

.
See that flash of light,
white, hot rage
.
Hear the roaring thunder,
the rattle of a cage
.
Feel the wind
blow up a storm
.
Then know the sun,
embrace so warm
.
