The question
Heads is yes
tails is no
flip the coin
heads lands opposite to tails
What was your question?
tails is no

I know not
I know not of how one can live
nor how one should die
but what I do know is that in our minds
profound thoughts may sound
and we shall bare ear to listen
so that we can be able to see
not of what is tangible by the world
but is comprehended by the soul
nor how one should die
but what I do know is that in our minds
profound thoughts may sound
and we shall bare ear to listen
so that we can be able to see
not of what is tangible by the world
but is comprehended by the soul

Flame
As light abandons the burning candle
And darkness consumes the enclosed plane
I sit in the corner and watch the flame die
No more rage, no more pain
No more love, forever insane
For now I care not of what will be
Since my words are as water to the sea
I watch the flame transpose into nothing
And I escape through the darkness
For I am the flame and I am free.
And darkness consumes the enclosed plane
I sit in the corner and watch the flame die
No more rage, no more pain
No more love, forever insane
For now I care not of what will be
Since my words are as water to the sea
I watch the flame transpose into nothing
And I escape through the darkness
For I am the flame and I am free.

Life and death
Life knows not of my suffering
and death knows so much less
Yet both inflict this upon me
Life that places burdens on my shoulders
Death that pulls all near and dear to me away
but leaves behind the evil that I may never escape from
Both manifests the same in all relativity
Yet separate in all aspects
defined by those clueless in their own eyes
Not that you or myself have a better conclusion
for we cannot say we have lived until death meets with us
nor say what death holds since we have passed over
So now I sit and ponder of...
and death knows so much less
Yet both inflict this upon me
Life that places burdens on my shoulders
Death that pulls all near and dear to me away
but leaves behind the evil that I may never escape from
Both manifests the same in all relativity
Yet separate in all aspects
defined by those clueless in their own eyes
Not that you or myself have a better conclusion
for we cannot say we have lived until death meets with us
nor say what death holds since we have passed over
So now I sit and ponder of...

Behind the veil
I see behind the veil of ordinary people
But see nothing more than ghosts.
Ghosts that were once entities upon this plane
and are now no more than empty shells.
That are damned to this purgatory
waiting to be purged so that they may enter a better life.
Don't we all wish for the very same ?
But see nothing more than ghosts.
Ghosts that were once entities upon this plane
and are now no more than empty shells.
That are damned to this purgatory
waiting to be purged so that they may enter a better life.
Don't we all wish for the very same ?

Rain
dark clouds appear
the wind starts to blow cold air
raindrops start to fall
the wind starts to blow cold air
raindrops start to fall

In the blink of an eye
skipping stones on the lake
sitting under the cherry blossom trees
feeling the wind blow gently among the leaves
watching time pass by
ripples in the lake flow with absolute bliss
cherry blossoms fall at 5 centimeters per second
wind caressing all that it may touch
all moments captured in the blink of an eye
sitting under the cherry blossom trees
feeling the wind blow gently among the leaves
watching time pass by
ripples in the lake flow with absolute bliss
cherry blossoms fall at 5 centimeters per second
wind caressing all that it may touch
all moments captured in the blink of an eye

Winter
slippers on
jersey on
scarf on
gloves on
dry wood in the fire
sit on the couch
hot chocolate in my hand
Winter is here

Opposites
left is to right as up is to down, which is the same as night to day or life to death. All things have balance, its equal opposite in every way even each human-being has a there own opposite. The only difference between the opposites that life has and the opposites that we have, is that life's opposites oppress one another but our opposites amplify ourselves.

Label
A name is a label nothing more than a word
this imprisons you just as a flightless bird
yet it defines you and fills passion in your soul
that gives you freedom to escape from the bottomless hole
this is my name and this is what will be heard
this imprisons you just as a flightless bird
yet it defines you and fills passion in your soul
that gives you freedom to escape from the bottomless hole
this is my name and this is what will be heard

Time
past, present, future
stopping time altogether
yet still the clock ticks
