Life inflicted a re sounding defeat on you;
down the drain you lied flat as a pancake
for many years you've been silent,
a phrase of call in the eye of the storm woke you up.
the fullness of your heart was needled
so you rummaged the future tirelesly;
you searched hard for faint solace,
for the last drop of hope
now since you've been back we never stopped crying,
we never stopped complaining
but your caliber seem to be the framer of your innefable core,
the composer of your innermost breath
now we know why for we watched when you died the death

A fate worse than death we survived,
lost in thought what could a man possibly do?
the best person you can ever be is you
we've laid hands on your empty corpse
we streched hearts to touch your soul
we've cried symphathetically looking through your grave

we cursed the cause that sounded your death knell
and waited patiently for a miracle to happen
we lost all the tears we reserved for other people's deaths,
to snatch you out of the jaws of death
but what God has given,he has now taken

your rumble of calm died many...

I saw the edge of her pinafore at end;
and I remembered the righteouos and justice that was lodged in her,
now harlotry thoughts precipitate within her!  
like the glaze covering an earthen vessel her lips are always smooth

but emanated a dark sooth!  
 
she has now covered her beginnings with guile;  
entangled herself with a snare unaware  
her heart is broken beyond healing but she do not know  
she now indiscriminate sexual intercouurse for payment!
she battens like a...

Reed before the wind lives on,
while mighty oaks do fall;
life's crisis beat you hollow
you came back wading through the dead night
but never...never the same!
bathed in a compound of blood and sweat
pants teared up and your crass boots were wet,
you've been fighting hard to unfold sealed reality
you've been fighting to reveal old truth layers,
you were a good warrior and got knocked down
you rose after we squashed peices of ice in your chest
sadly you rose to watch the battle end,
but if the love we have for one another was at all true love,...

You put me through the mangle;
interrogated my mind with quizful smiles,
and when you walked away
my heart wore a green willow,
i covered my head sadly with a pillow...and cried
you left me in this vale of tears!
you left me to swim against the tide of my own thoughts
but why did you come in the first place?
i tried to pull you at full tilt
eyes lied...
because you dont really exist!
