Untitled #7723

 

You are the voice inside my head.

A silent counterpart on my journey 

Keeping me company where I tread 

Dispelling all my fears and worries

 

Tell me not of tragic woes. 

I want to share your joys 

Speak to me of highs, not lows 

We'll rise above the maddening noise. 

The future comes on unflighted wing.

No faster than today, 

Let us live, our hearts will sing 

And greet the coming day.

Leaving

I've fought this,
Fought you
For so long

I'm not sure how to live
With out fighting
Will my heart feel
As hollow as my insides?

What will be my purpose?
Will I be any use to you?
Will my eyes turn as black
As my now barren soul?

As endless days turned into
Empty nights I tried to pretend
That promises and prophesies
Were only words

Words that could not maim
That would not damage my fragile heart
As time passed each word was like a knife.
Cold and sharp. Brutal.

As the inevitable draws closer, I see.
My path has been altered
I must walk this path of blades

Leaving behind the comfort.
Leaving behind the light.
Leaving behind you.

(When you touch me the wrong way it feels right)
(You know me better then anyone else does)
Our shared heart and soul is the cause
I don't want you to leave my sight
____________________________________

Without you I live in endless night
I take a deep breath and pause
(When you touch me the wrong way it feels right)
(You know me better then anyone else does)
____________________________________

(We two have know the greatest delights)
(It feels as if it always was)
I know from where that feeling draws
Angels brought you from highest heights
To give love to all our days and nights

Silence: A Respite

I could tell you stories of power
When we quested for Glory and Gold
The battles for virtue and honor
Ideals we tried to hold
Now the land has gone quiet
The Dragon no longer roars
We battle to live our lives daily
Dreaming of what we once were
It takes time to recover from sorrow
And pleasure to cure you from pain
When we continue on with our story
Remember our favor and fame

Mercury's Vow

Mercury’s Vow

And all my sorrows turn to joys in times unlikely number’d

But quickly end with willful sighs to turn smiles e’now

A joyful look, I quickly took as e’re I turn my head

By Mercury, I pledged my vow

I wish only to live in the here and now

Never have meanings wrongly misread

But what will come of this sacred vow?

In public I will not one glistening teardrop shed

Only happy or pleasant face allow

Not to belie or fool, ‘tis that I dread

Br Mercury, I pledge this vow!

Books

I can’t conceive

Of a way

To bring us together

Oh, I knew its but a dream

But a fantasy has built worlds

Who wouldn’t want to live

In such a vivid illusion?

The pages of my real life

Have been torn away

Lost in contemplation

Burned in desire

Beyond retrieval

A new chapter must be written

A cast of characters

Expertly drawn out

Time is coming for big decisions

Most authors worth their salt

Chop heads for verisimilitude

If I can’t have you

In my imagination

Then

I must imagine you gone

And move on

Reaching Toward The Stars

Time is short

Let’s seize what we can

Some people’s tomorrow never come

It’s enough to live now

Have what we may

When the starlight reaches us

It may already be gone

It lives on through our memories

Infinity and divinity

Touches our small souls

Brief glimpses on the immortal

We beg and borrow

Never knowing where it will be snatched

If you wait

Tomorrow’s dream may disappear

Bring them love

Let them grow

Hand reaching toward the stars
