Grey Skies
Three years have come and passed. Three years till I am thirty. Oh, how time has passed. Nineteen in Europe still feels at arm's length, yet it is merely a dream. And yet, in my dream, I am dragged into the catacombs. I cry out for aid, but no one is there to save me. I fight against my aggressors, but an even more vigorous beating meets every effort to escape. The only questions in my mind are, will my inability to fall into line and believe the lies that come out of the mouth of the clerisy land me in prison? Will I be able to stand defiant in front of the tyrant when the day comes? ...

Coward
I know not what to do,
But my heart is in pain,
I know not if what I do is right or wrong,
I just know that I do it because I am a coward.
We have been friends forever,
Yet when I no longer can hold back the tears,
I run away instead,
I hide my sorrows, I bury my pain.
When I see you, speak to you, or hear of you,
Pins and needles poke my heart,
My stomach sinks and javelins,
Penetrate my bowls.
My internals are in pain,
As though gravely sick,
My heart is in pain,
As though it were to stop any...
But my heart is in pain,
I know not if what I do is right or wrong,
I just know that I do it because I am a coward.
We have been friends forever,
Yet when I no longer can hold back the tears,
I run away instead,
I hide my sorrows, I bury my pain.
When I see you, speak to you, or hear of you,
Pins and needles poke my heart,
My stomach sinks and javelins,
Penetrate my bowls.
My internals are in pain,
As though gravely sick,
My heart is in pain,
As though it were to stop any...

Build a Home
I wish not the fleeting’ desires’ of passion’ and lust
I wish not the ride of coasters of emotions
For it leaves a painful trail and our hearts it rusts
And kills hope and love with its violent forces’
I have built a house of wood, mortar’ and bricks
But a house is a building with many rooms and walls
With green lands and deep valleys surrounding about it
Lifeless on its own and empty within’ its halls
But I wish to build a home,
I wish to build home for two
I wish to build a home for two
and the kids ...
I wish not the ride of coasters of emotions
For it leaves a painful trail and our hearts it rusts
And kills hope and love with its violent forces’
I have built a house of wood, mortar’ and bricks
But a house is a building with many rooms and walls
With green lands and deep valleys surrounding about it
Lifeless on its own and empty within’ its halls
But I wish to build a home,
I wish to build home for two
I wish to build a home for two
and the kids ...

Everything
I gave everything, 5
Expecting nothing, 5
But was hoping everything 7
In the end I gave 5
too much, Lost it all, 5
And was left to fend alone 7
Expecting nothing, 5
But was hoping everything 7
In the end I gave 5
too much, Lost it all, 5
And was left to fend alone 7

The gift that is not for me to give
From the moment I met with your eyes,
I saw a gem hidden within you
Though no one saw,
I believe it to be true
From The moment I saw you cry,
My heart broke, and I wished to move the world for you
I’d give you the moon, part the seas,
If it meant I’d see your sweet smile again
I wished to shower you with presents and gifts,
But permitted was I not,
For your journey is long, and your steps towards it have just begun
I did my best to become your present and be thy gift,
I fought for you in the...

Do Good?
In the end, he followed his dream. In the end he achieved his goal. In the end he did good, because it was good.

It rains in the winter time, 7
It shines in the summer time, 7
’Tis the season of Autumn 7
Hail all, 2
Let no person live without true words of wisdom, 12
Hail all, 2
Let no one speak foolishness 7
Truly, it is blessing! 7

Absurd
My life is insignificant, All my actions are perversely ill,
No act I do, no thought I forge, is of good measure,
My essence treads in illness,
The cancerous corruption only weakens my soul by the day,
yet I seek no aid,
I prefer to rot in my own dying flesh,
Then to seek for any helping hand,
If only I had the courage, if only I had the will,
To enter a dark room, to seal the hollow closet,
to take the leap of twisted, distorted faith,
Where I am certain to confront my true self in the agora.
I believe in no God, when as he ever...
No act I do, no thought I forge, is of good measure,
My essence treads in illness,
The cancerous corruption only weakens my soul by the day,
yet I seek no aid,
I prefer to rot in my own dying flesh,
Then to seek for any helping hand,
If only I had the courage, if only I had the will,
To enter a dark room, to seal the hollow closet,
to take the leap of twisted, distorted faith,
Where I am certain to confront my true self in the agora.
I believe in no God, when as he ever...

DARK POEM

Awaken in the deep
Honk goes the cargo ship,
It bursts so loud I jump inside,
My ears bleed of pain,
My fear oozes out of my skin.
The sailors are ROS(hip)L
The captain in his cabin.
A thrust, a pull, a loud honk.
We are off into the deep.
Let reality awaken us,
into a dream of the deep,
into a sleep of the dead.
Let the sound drown me out.
Let it awaken me in the deep.
It bursts so loud I jump inside,
My ears bleed of pain,
My fear oozes out of my skin.
The sailors are ROS(hip)L
The captain in his cabin.
A thrust, a pull, a loud honk.
We are off into the deep.
Let reality awaken us,
into a dream of the deep,
into a sleep of the dead.
Let the sound drown me out.
Let it awaken me in the deep.

Drip, drop
Drip, drop, drip, drop,
is the sound of pouring rain.
Drip, drop, drip, drop,
Are the voices of sorrow and pain.
is the sound of pouring rain.
Drip, drop, drip, drop,
Are the voices of sorrow and pain.
