I look in your eyes,
And I forgot how to cry.

My tears hide from me and gaze from afar,
As your lens pierces my soul with secrets that swallows my depth.
And I am left with stagnant silence,
That breaks my jaw and swallow my thoughts.

I don't know how to cry.

You wept time and again
As the door of your temple was shattered into fragments of broken vows.
How is it that pain always find joy to prey upon?
There are grades to sorrow,
A girl in travail will burn your ears with tales of pure fire from the depths of pain.

I will speak once of this sweet evil,
After which I will speak no more.
For in **** is an ape that scorns the heavens
And teaches the earth to lose honour or find pain.
He is a beast!
One that should be sacrificed to the gods of the earth,
And sentenced at the gate of heaven to an eternity with pain.

I now know the valley
Where killing joy is a joy in itself,
And I wonder if I can ever understand this depths I am in the shadow of.

I look in your eyes,
And I still don't know how to cry.

Your visit at the depths of pain
And how you overcame
Has taught me how to satisfy my sorrow
Without shedding a tear.

Taken forcefully by her father.
I knew a dame,
Whose heart was dear,
Her love was fame,
Her light was clear.

She gave her heart,
To that young man,
Who made a start,
That fits her plan.

But soon it seems,
For then he changed,
He packed his things,
And left Estranged.

She cried and wept,
And felt so weak,
On me she cleft,
And soon fell sick.

Her light was gone,
Her love was dead,
The deed was done,
Her soul was red.

She told her tale,
To me all day,
And then bewailed,
Till she grew pale.

Then came the nap,
That stopped her shame,
Right on my lap,
Her rapture came.

Tick! Tock!
Tick! Tock!
My bowels are running...

I am a passing cloud
Amongst clouds,
Eating myself up in little chunks of tiny droplets.
A restless dungeon,
Constantly banging of clanging chains.

Tick! Tock!
Tick! Tock!
My bowels are running...

I am a brother to the wind,
Consumed by the fire of burning feets.
The accursed breath,
Racing fast towards a shallow grave.

Tick! Tock!
Tick! Tock!
My bowels are running...

I am a moving brink,
Whose heart beats till it crushes time out.
For I am the beginning and the end of time,
The very breath that fuels its motion.

Tick! Tock!
Tick! Tock!
My bowels are running...

I am a sick hour,
A dying minute,
And a gasping second.

Tick! Tock!
Tick! Tock!
I am a steady runner,
Racing to my very grave.

She coasted over him,
Shallow and deep,
Hot and cold,
Surface and beneath,

She floated atop him,
Wild and dangerous,
Tamed and secure,
Vulnerable and weak,

She ebbed and flowed,
Towards his curved edge,
The verge of his reverse,
Her very own toppling.

He was the cliff...
And she, the waterfall.

The fire burning in my eyes,
The passion erupting within me,
The love you felt and thought suffice,
Wasn't,
For I still perceive the diademic mount,
That placed me at this height,
With her Angelic touch,
I still bear the feel.

With her star quenched,
And her love misplaced,
I turned to you,
To fill the emptiness in my heart.

With the lies that fall
so smoothly off your lips
my trust in you crumbles
my heart breaks and bleeds.

The lying
it comes so easily.
It's as if you don't care
about the hurt they cause.

I hate this,
I hate second guessing
every action and word
wondering if its just another lie.

Do you care?
that why hurt me deeply?
that they are tearing me apart?
DO you?
By nature,
Within every man are two foxes...

Let us pray...

Pour forth we beseech you oh fox,
Your howl echoes in our hearts,
That by it we strongly adhere,
Made known in our actions and thoughts.

Amen!
We say,
To prayers served cold,
On a platter of flatter,
When we starve on willingful obedience to strange foxes,
A-men!
Singular fights plural,
Holding their own in this tumultuous ambush,
For survival and supremacy.

Wiles...
When the right eye and the left eye sees differently,
The right; the good,
The left; the bad,
And the brain sits in-between,
Torn in instincts,
Which runs counter to its obligation.

(Creeds of the heart...)
In here,
There is food,
Enough food for survival that stirs the dullest of instincts,
A saviour for the brain whose guides are safe to follow,
A satisfier, eradicating the abyss of confusion,
By some pure magic.

(Let thy will be done...)
Here is the matter to pause over,
For the brain calls the play,
And feeds a fox of its choice,
The heart can but only suggest which in its perfection,
And the anger of the heart,
Dissolves into tragic pleasure,
A combination of lessons learnt,
When the wrong fox is fed.

Let us pray...

Pour forth we beseech you oh fox,
Your howl echoes in our hearts,
That by it we strongly adhere,
Made known in our actions and thoughts.

By nature,
Within every man are two foxes...

Always fighting...
And always hungry...

For the fox that wins,
Is the one we feed the most.
