The morning's swearing wears away
At the sight of midday.
Midday's timekeeping and selfish pleasantries,
Is shoved at the deliberate onset
Of evening's pirouette.
Evening is a slow demon.
What was once in its husk
Shies from its predecessor;
Anxiously timing its rebirth;
Dawn only exacerbates.
Night shines black through the curtains,
Inside enclosed it is a blessing
As the day's lightning
Fades
And on comes
Peace.
Until the moon, ditching its promises,
Finds more to disappoint,
In the end.
I sometimes wonder if it'll ever come again.

i'm fading away.
transcending
life
and anything that comes
after.

i'm wasting away.
pieces of me
breaking off
here and there.

i'm going away
and the blazing trail i've left
behind me
will burn the truth
into all who dare to follow.

don't try and save me.
i'm dying
anyway.

Our  Lies are the mask we wear
We must  break free
Or  we will  become person  the fade image that people see

i cant even try
now that you've bled me dry
so i can no longer move on
from everything thats gone

the sharp knife in my hand
to make the final stand
and take away all the pain
that falls in the rain

show the demons that have come
that im ready for my final song
when the words no longer make a rhyme
and stand still this final time

how can you see my fate
when you cant stop your own
cuz its in this final state
that i am left alone

now that i see the light
for the final time
i finally lose my sight
unable to shine

Night starts fading,
stars begin to yawn;
time slowly drifts towards
the most awaited dawn...

I've been hurt before by love
But fly off and away like a dove.
The sting goes away
With each passing day,
But when once I was young
And first learned love stung...
That pain is here to stay.
The shadows grow
Dark and sinister
An icy chill
The blood begins to flow

The cries of the broken
Torn and tormented
Their hearts hurting
The pain never to soften

They say time will heal
But these souls ache
With the pain of the world
They don't know, because they don't feel

You can never get loose
You can't breath
It's like you're suffocating
Like you're being hung by a noose

There is no light
Forever forgotten
They're drowning
Losing their eternal fight

No one will save them
To remain forever lost
No more will to live
Their life will slowly
Slowly
Fade
Today is the day
That all the things that I fear
Will disappear
And I will be just a memory

Just a memory
I don't understand
Why don't you look at me
I am not invisible
I am here, I am here

And though I call you
I seem to just disappear
I want you
Why are you looking away
Please just tell me that everything's gonna be okay

I can't feel
I can't see
I can't do anything without a key
I want you
I want you

Today is the day
All my worries have slipped away
I can sleep well without the fear
And I will be a memory

Today is the day
That all my hopes will fade away
All will seem like just a dream
And I am just a memory
I am just a memory

I won't lie
I won't cry
I won't die and be alone
I want you
I want you

I can see you but you can't see me
I don't understand
Were did I go wrong
I can't be just a memory

I want you
I want you
Don't you see
That it's just me
Not a memory
I want you
I want you
I am not a memory
I can't be dead
I can't be dead

I am a memory
I am just imaginary
I am in your wounded eyes
I am the reason for your grieving tears

I am just a memory
I wrote this many years ago...It's not that good but I thought I'd share.

It may seem kind of repetitive but the repetition is more of thoughts rather than words...if that makes sense.....

the restaurant
where we used to
hang out
closed down
the other day.

im not sure
if i am
happy
that there is now
one less thing
around
to remind me of you,

or if i am
scared
that you will
keep fading away
until you
completely
disappear.

Ignited by two
It generates fire too bright
Leaving both blind
Like sleeping spirits
Until they linger farther
Farther away from each other
And
Love fades
Like vapor
A sweet mist in abruptness...
Love is beautiful. But sometimes and most of the time it finds its way out. We dont really know whether to find it or wait for it. I guess it just happens. -_-0
