I'm crushed under the universe
Caved in by the earth
My thoughts are opaque
The embers rise and awake

My soul is kindled by hate
Disguising waves as siege
and rapture as higher belief
I will take what they breathe

Lungs collapse under pressure
Thoughts escape me entirely  
I was lost in a deep sea
Then cinders became steam

Regret built up by ideas
Creating your demise
Where consciousness goes
when it wants to dive

Power at the end of my fingertips
Blood boiling and veins disconnect
String of minds began to intertwine
with everything exhausted but alive

I start to fracture and break
Every fragment began to burn
Their words wrapped my bones
Reality shuddered as rage was born

The ground quaked with fear
Magnitudes driven by resent
The shake of the world
Reminding us how scared it's been

Wrath spun out of me like a storm
Crashing down with thunderous force
My eyes torrential judgement
on all of those who could stand before

Meteors shower from the heavens
Leaving their will rack and ruined
Divine justice came to pass
Pervade with brutal execution
took a small hiatus and I've been working on this for a week, all criticism is welcomed and encouraged :)
It smells like grass
Way above the atmosphere
We're playing on clouds
Its all so clear

Let me see you
Lift me off the ground
All my fears are disappearing
On the Lovers' merry-go-round

Spend the night sky with me
Take my hand, together let's be forever
I'll hold you close, we're a constellation
Every moment is a new sensation

Put your hand on my chest
Can you hear the butterflies
Let the moon shut our eyes
I've never felt so alive

Utter elation
Lead me to salvation
I'm dream walking
My hearts been taken

Look at the time
We've slept into the morning
Watch me decompress
I can breathe in with meaning

The sun is above us now
Our spotlight has come out
Tomorrow is a new day
You should bring over your lips,
We can forget what we were going to say

Goodbye now
I hope I see your smile soon
Before I get ahead of myself
It's not even noon
met someone:)
I'm a candle
Set me ablaze
It's quiet
I know you'll cave

A drop of water
Plummeting to its death
Shadows scream and chant
Draw your last breath

Step after step
It's not getting closer
One moment I'm here
Sometimes I'm not so sure

I've lost track of time
There was a scream
The voice of an angel
Tearing at the seams

A vision of light
Begs me to decay
It takes two to tango
Only one can be saved

Eyes of fury, the first woman
Wrapped in skin, draped with rage
She choked on words, fell to a crawl
Held me close, told me it's my fault

Towers built of sin fall to pieces
I'm chasing after my lungs
Build me up and watch me die
I'm the butcher of goodbyes

Aspect of chaos stuck in glass
Scented of generations past
I had legs, knew where to stand
Before me was the folly of man

Time after time
He follows his dream
As above, so below
It's not what it seems
I was asked to write about spaghetti but this is what came out, I had a hard time writing it but any feedback is appreciated
Shards of memories
Stuck in the sky
Gazing into the seas
Bringing waves to their knees

The clouds are drifting
Bleeding into the wind
Look up aghast to see
Just a gentle breeze

My world fell to earth
I wanted to escape
Out of touch, in a race
We are lost in head space

Well above and just beyond
The dust of dreams settle
They know the night sky lies
I like to keep whats mine

They shine so dimly
I'll bring them close
Make them a home
I've never been so alone

It all razed at once
But I can be timid
I'm sorry to rain on your parade
You're either with us
Or in agonizing dismay

I'll start anew
To live with limits
Walking on ice
Eating a full moon slice
Moon stars
My head is throbbing
My heart is pumping
The world is unbecoming
I am the sun king

There's a door
That's me in the mirror
I could fall apart in the glass
Just like that, I could collapse

I'm on my own two feet
I have the strength to stand
Burning bridges page by page
Throwing a dart and hoping it lands

It's the rush that had me
Sweating, racing cars
Then the adrenaline kicked in
I was burning the path above the stars

Now I can't get up in the morning
Without having a short term goal
What should I do to the windows
Is there an ultimate code?

There was a ghastly angel
That once told me,
Through glittery eyes
And stolen souls,
That if man burns enough,
She'll let them go

Bows of light, the one above all
Break this fool, make him forget he saw
I had a weird dream just then
There was an end, my best friend

I'm awake now and it's morning
I gave a smile to the birds chirping
Hello my winged friends,
Did you make a deal with the dead?

We have a lemon tree outside
But I prefer something sweet
I am roasting alive, I don't know why  
Do you want something to eat?

Im going to bed now
Let the song be red
If up is all I can go
I'll surely end up misled
Compared to my others, it's a bit absurd with its meaning but give me feedback please
It's been a long night
But she's at my side
Arm in arm
Is this how worlds die?

My mind is racing
But I've never ran further
Maybe we'll see
If I'll have it in me

She said "I love you"
I hung on the last word
"Let's try something new"
Now I'm falling forward

I'm starving
And I know this is alarming
But this bite has something to prove
I blame it on my sweet tooth

I was in the moment
A second too long
Now might be never
Time stands strong

I bit off more
Than I could do
How do I be
Where is my cue

The world must rewind
To when I first had my plate
A moment to satiate
Served with red wine
And love on the line

I draw my breath
And pray to the lord
Am I hungry
Or just bored?

I don't kiss and tell
But I'll let you know
She was one of a kind
Thats something I can't forgo

When it's good it's great
It's like I'm breathing
Now it must silent
I am fire seething

Forgive me
We all have a song to sing
May I burn
If I have too much of a good thing
It's the spice of life
And the sweet bed
Of he who is called death
That made me wake up
To behold and believe
That one day I'll see
Hes worth it to me

Just breathe
I say, on my knees
She'll be still and lie
But she cannot see
Her eyes stay remain shut
At least that's what
They want me to believe

It is sadness and rage
That consume my days
Time will watch you die
And dark moves swiftly
If it meant the world,
Would you lie?

At the end of all told
She is gone, all I loath
What to do and where to be
The possibilities are not me
My fault, maybe true
But now darkness,
I know you

I was tricked into mayhem
Madness my dearest
It's time for you to rise
Because at this man's heart lies
A formidable truth
"Contain, misuse,
Drugs, abuse,"
Where is all the dancing
Where am I

Oh, I see
It was never meant to be
I don't know if I'm behind
But I know whats before me
Simply cathartic
And a dream to see
