Overun, past the max
Taken in to much, tipped the stack
All went well till the last straw
Then there she was on the floor
Work and play got all confused
Then she hit the *****
Didn't go **** up all at once
She looked the part and danced the dance
Then the day it all tipped the balance
Now not her or even near
Her friends don't come near
But a day at a time step by step
She rebuilds the life that she regrets
Alcoholism
Destroys friends

the sun shot with an arrow, bleeds out
blotting the sky with red

running up the blood-stained stairs
hairs raising, hell-raising
your feet racing
a stampede, a cacophony of undead
crazing, blazing
groans groping your tail
fire-breathing zombies

a glitch in the matrix
déjà vu

me behind you
in a floor of mutants
high up in the tower
they overun, overpower
i'm hit, bit
i die on the ground
and watch you crash into the glass
and freefall
explosions on your back
supernova attack
you, a reverse icarus,
the sun on your back
falling, a comet,
destination certain,
curtain of darkness

a dream within a dream
gigantic war machines on the horizon
indigo sky, devil angels cry
it's the end of the world

awakening, i see
ancient swampland ruin
trudging through the green river
i see kids skipping on stones
and they lead me to a fountain of bones
and a black horse in its reflection

i see you behind the doric column
i reach out and call your name
but you walk right through me

and so i weep in the fountain
and from the blackened waters
i find an arrow
which i place in my bow
to bleed out the sun
i hope dreams don't mean anything, because i know exactly what they're telling me.

A Scarecrow awakes
To an angry pumpkin sun
The field's overun
S Smoothie Jun 2016
Once again thoughts run haywire
overun by you
mind crackles alive with alternative universes.
Or cracks we could slip through and melt together.

-----

Searching for an exit its too late
Nothing but the inevitable longing of home

----

Warm eyes melt away the distance
As always,
time has no meaning for us,
it only passes drawing circles around us
dragging with it destiny's indelicate strings  into knots of fate
That only seem to tighten

----

Resistance is futile
Fate has consipired
face to face again
Heart to heart,
Soul to soul.

----

Old wounds fade
A new pain rises
The inevitable nothing
Another lifetime of longing
Two steps away
And aeons apart

----

A tangled mess of miss-timed,out of tune
love symphanies
That inevitably end apart

----

What else is there to do
But to spend endless aeons in your eyes
And capture long lived memories
Of an ancient past
Where everything was held in eachothers arms

-----

The Gods decreed no
Setting our pawns in motion
But there are no other obidences
In our soul's hearts
Despite our best intentions
It seems we can never be
Truly drawn apart


----

Let the emotions fall
Through the guard veils
Let the hidden energy of our souls
mingle in eacothers atmophere
To be in this moment,
In all the gloriousness of love
The truest kind
The kind for all ages to come
Ours.

The demons within life
i battle constantly
Exorsising them out
I need a constantine
Overun by these shadows, they always lingering
Bringing with it constant chaos
In reality so it seems
I try my hardest to overcome
they dragging me down
Im barely afloat
So does this mean that I drown
I feel them picking at flesh
But I will never ever frown
I know in my heart I will overcome
Surviving this onslaught
Until I wear the crown
the waves of chaos is constant
Overboard I get thrown
Fighting wave after wave
how apart we have grown
My smile only widens
Knowing I will never go down
If i do, I get up again
As i am not on my own
My life is sacred
And so is my kin
the only constant
With the joy that they bring
I draw from my strength
And my heart start to sing
The notes is blissfull
So It makes away with the sting
If this sounds awfull
I have to deal with the stink
the aftermath
and desease that you bring
I have to shake this feeling
Like a coctail blend
And just move forward
In this conflicting end
And truth is....
Theres nothing wrong that I did
Sometimes one's emotions do not make sense. Enjoy
