A present
From the heavens
Received over night
Unwrapped across
The Earth
A blanket of white
You probably don’t think
about me anymore
(as spring about winter
and winter about fall)
But tell me
in the deepest of nights
do you ever wake up
feeling the calling
far from your sight
(and sight of any man
life or even meaning)
do you ever start crying
because the tears from
miles and miles don’t
let you free yourself
from burning (in the
same time dreams
of you were cut
from my heart—
—the reality so painful
and shiningly suicidal)
but don’t worry please
for
the stars and the trees
and the world is
the beginning for you
(for me the end)
Too late
No color
No feeling
No honor
In stealing
Another
It pulls at our limbs
Strikes rock against flint
to make a fire
of desire
to Drag us in
No color
No feeling
None other
Trapped and peeling
No skies
As we die
We fall victim
To an attack
Trapped in a system
Painted black
- From Diary of an Ominous Mind
Rainy days...
Calls for the fallen ones
United
They collapse into tears

Rainy days...
Makes it colder than most
Frozen
They hold themselves close

Rainy days...
Summons the darkest creatures
Heartless
They start to feed on your fears

Rainy days...*
Silences the loudest cries
Breathless
They begin to celebrate in the fire

*On rainy days
Leave the beaten aside
Allow them to crash
Promise them their space
Because once they rise from the fallen droplets
They will stay
And they will be
indestructible...
Stand up, stronger and tougher than ever.
