Poet Introduction
Hmm...
Having Forgotten
This was a fun day.
Want me to share my day, I bet you do.
Well okay I'll tell you all about it.
I woke up this morning
And looked to the sky, it was so blue.
All the birds fell to the ground
And decided to play dead, which was strange.
Just right after breakfast I had a golden piece of toast
With a cup of coffee before I looked to the time.
I started to freak out as I rushed out the door.
Having forgotten I left my work at home.
Now stuck in the traffic.
I tell myself I won't be...

Use Of Those Wings
Come, Let's leave it behind
And start from scratch again.
Wash away the blood covering your hands
Still the sin remains.
Something's coming from the shadows
It's a familiar face that only you know.
I have returned
To forgive you.
Just please turn, run away.
Please run away.
You're the angel mistaken for a demon, I know this isn't you.
Make use of those wings, it's the only chance you'll ever have.
Even in death I can see more clearly.
Turn around to face away,
Turned...

Still the sin remains.

Painful Me
I tried and failed, I'm sorry
I couldn't do better.
You turn away from me in disgust
And let me slip away.
Where am I suppose to go?
Drifting far and watching you.
I'am sorry.
I'am hurt.
Come relief painful me
I'll forgive the misuse done to me.
Come relief painful me
It's not easy for me.
Come relief painful me
Painful me
Painful me
As a failure I've no right
To say how the order should be.
Kill me the way you always have
I'll never lose my hope.
Now you see, how much I'm worth.
Come relief painful...
I couldn't do better.
You turn away from me in disgust
And let me slip away.
Where am I suppose to go?
Drifting far and watching you.
I'am sorry.
I'am hurt.
Come relief painful me
I'll forgive the misuse done to me.
Come relief painful me
It's not easy for me.
Come relief painful me
Painful me
Painful me
As a failure I've no right
To say how the order should be.
Kill me the way you always have
I'll never lose my hope.
Now you see, how much I'm worth.

Crystal
To always remain weak and fear a given purpose
It's haunting, it's daunting.
I slowly lose control and break the fragile surface.
The colliding against me.
To know myself again, I'm tired of wondering why.
Reason to be whole again, to regain what it means to decide for myself.
I reject who I'm to be.
It's just not me.
This lying endlessly has really poisoned my mind.
Reflection's destruction.
A sympathetic soul always been branded the pathetic one.
It's hurting to not know why.
To know myself again, I'm tired of wonder why.

Sorry
I will say sorry for the love that you lost.
We already know it's going to happen again.
I will say sorry for the things that were taken.
Because you're only going to end up getting them back.
I will say sorry only when you want me to.
But I will not say sorry for the death of someone close to you.
I don't know why I won't, from what I've learned
It usually tends to make them mad
Every time they say "I'm sorry..."
I've no right right to say something like that.
I'm sorry, I just can't say that...

A Gift
I was told I would die, I sat in denial
It's not true, it's just much too soon.
They said my heart would give these last moments here
I was sad though I forced a smile.
Helpless, abandoned.
They tried hard but it wasn't enough.
then one night while I'm asleep
I'm awaken to a new hope.
You should have known.
You should have seen.
The gift of life you've given me.
Too good for words.
My only love.
I was lost.
I wake to a new day to ask a chance to say
"Thank you" they echo.
I've tried to forget the past ...

Synthetic
You bleed exactly the way I do, it's true.
Along my side artificially made to live the way we're told.
You're just another coin lost with the rest of us.
You know there are hundreds, a thousand screams sound the same.
The truths been hidden for far too long, it's time.
You're not unique at all your face resembles mine.
You seek a difference within, assemble the line.
Everything's all the same, nothing will ever change...

At Least Once
You know my heart best
better than anyone could.
The things we said were lies
But the feelings we had weren't.
To say "I'm ready" when your not even sure
If what you say is even true.
I won't hold back anymore.
It's all in the eyes.
So clear as day sometimes.
The choices are always difficult.
To let go, so hard at times
But today's different
I feel a little braver.
Don't tell me I'll be okay because I just won't believe it, I know it.
Being here with you is enough for me to forget these scars that are scattered...

Tell me more I want to know.
How this disease will consume me.
To survive the agonizing bites
Eating away at my flesh.
Lift my sleeve and they're you'll see
How incapable my body is.
Look, stare closely the piranhas eating my rotting flesh.
How unlucky am I to be
To have to remind the world
Something like this still exists in the perfect world.
My times run short
Quarantine screen.
The medications I've taken
Can't provide me the relief.
Strip my bone of it's partner
Let it feel nothing anymore. ...

Inner Devils
The stone wall's so still
And this line just keeps going on.
If only I could lay some place I would feel no fear.
I'm shattered like this mirror.
With parts of me that can't be found.
Some shards are so sharp it cuts me
When I try to put it back in place.
I see me finished with half of my life, think I'll throw out the rest of it.
There's no net to catch me, forcing you to watch me fall.
So where's god when I needed him?
Am I so low in the masses to not be able to reach him.
They drain every ounce of my sanity till talking to myself feels...

Journey's End
My companion and I walked to the foot of the mountain where the sand turned to snow
and winds grew cold. We huddled closely together and forward we went into the final trial.
The bitter cold, like needles piercing to my body all at once, and crushing snow to feet with each step I take. I didn't mind it but It all just seemed too cruel and painful to watch as it's done to my playful companion. The flare within his heart still burned and that alone gave me hope. We battled the daggers being thrown at us by taking cover behind pillars. It just kept getting harder every time but I urged...

This Diary
Please say so it can't be.
So it's really true.
The darkness that I've known
Unfolds a picture.
Behalf on your demon's demise.
Feathers of white wings.
Fall gently to the ground.
I felt theres good in you.
This diary
A book of love written in secrecy that you'd never understand.
Each small line means so much written in blood.
The tears
It stained the paper where the pen is dragged along.
The things left unsaid get lost within those empty pages.
My diary
Shh...listen to the noises around you.
A chill down the spineless....
