as tongues place themselvesin positions to create
awkward silences
that refuse to break
and all the things
that conjure
endeavors in the air
serve a bitter notion
simplicity is rare
complication is question
of reason to pursue
answers that
make no sense
and die untrue
throughout the ripples
of longing for the universe
to measure us by
the cup we thirst
'til time ticks away
and turns us to dust
unto our final hours
into the earth's crust
and stars carry away
our memory in time
to deem all the ways
we'd be immortalized
'cause things like that
are in the nature of humans
unless we are but
creatures unproven
to worthiness
destined to lose throughout
the cost of things
we are without
and a poet's mark is
justified deep in
the thoughts that make
him passionate
same as a thousand
painters who
build like bricks
things to be expressed
beyond any word
for we long to be measured
by the cup we thirst
Tonight I reminisce, tonight I die
Tonight I reminisce, tonight I die
I walk with all my burdens on my back
I do my best, oh Lord knows how I try
To make it there yet deep within I lack
My tears expose me as a weary man
I wonder if there is a place for me
And if there is, should I believe I can
Survive the ugliness my spirit sees
I sense the fiery buried in my heart
Has fabricated all my virtue now
While through it all I've learned to join and part
With bitterness and strife, my only vow
In which I won't forgive her for her ways
Will linger animosity always
While through it all I've learned to join and part
With bitterness and strife, my only vow
In which I won't forgive her for her ways
Will linger animosity always
She crawled into her memories to leave her loneliness
For one who gave to her a passion she has never known
Alone she stood beyond the wide, wide world and dreamed obsessed
Within her mind and by a life of flesh and blood and bone
As kisses from the very breath of beauty in despair
As kisses from the very breath of beauty in despair
Gave reason for her to embrace and cry her thoughts for him
For every hope within the whispers of a perfect prayer
So spiritually her confidence had seemingly un-dimmed
That road which gave the promise of an everlasting love
And never trembled nor eroded by what she once knew
Within the one who she had so persistently thought of
And so from twilight to each day she longed for Xanadu
along that empty road
and past the tree that stands
my dreams resemble life
settled by an empty hand
from where I am alone
afar with no one there
unto deep and darkened gloom
there's a feeling I cannot bear
how it aches to seldom hear
your voice of echoed love
the impression of light within
the rhythm of all you've done
and I dare to walk the distance
if it means to be with you
I swear we'll meet one day
to dance beyond the moon
my dreams resemble life
settled by an empty hand
from where I am alone
afar with no one there
unto deep and darkened gloom
there's a feeling I cannot bear
how it aches to seldom hear
your voice of echoed love
the impression of light within
the rhythm of all you've done
and I dare to walk the distance
if it means to be with you
I swear we'll meet one day
to dance beyond the moon
I'm dumb
at least
that is what you tell me
with your hands molded
with precise detail
around my heart
and
through
my soul:
the wasteland
you created in your image
causes me to wonder... why?
why lead us to the slaughter
of every truth when
beauty is so rare to find?
though it was you who
made me this way,
conceived my every thought
and raised me to believe
in only lies
and yet...
I will always
love you for it.
For that which lies in my darkest words
When angel's cry as grieved tortured birds
Lie close to me, take me in your flight
Hold me, hold me, oh ever so tight
Let this day fall between my fingers
Take a moment to beautifully linger
In deepness my despair will save
Your broken heart before the grave
But what is day without the night
Do tell me for whom you'd shine your light
If you had not once left me so
Just let things be without the flow
Of tendency when rain does fall
My life for you, please take it all
I lie in the dear sweet echo of
Life that dared to forget me, love
So let me hear you'll not deny
The reason that I so often cry
I've learned of pain I had begotten
To die alone, easily forgotten
Lie close to me, take me in your flight
Hold me, hold me, oh ever so tight
Let this day fall between my fingers
Take a moment to beautifully linger
In deepness my despair will save
Your broken heart before the grave
But what is day without the night
Do tell me for whom you'd shine your light
If you had not once left me so
Just let things be without the flow
Of tendency when rain does fall
My life for you, please take it all
I lie in the dear sweet echo of
Life that dared to forget me, love
So let me hear you'll not deny
The reason that I so often cry
I've learned of pain I had begotten
To die alone, easily forgotten
Within the beauty by a scented candle
Marvels the dream that heaven consumes
To touch an infant and form his sweet soul
Led by the path it'll faithfully renew
Like the universe that surely embraces the womb
To have it forever and deny every way
Evil this world can stress on her heart
I long for the secret of how it can change
Along with the things that have made up the minds
Of her guardians above to bless this life whole
And love that such a chance had gave way
To fate which tells of a story that flows
By way of her life and inspiriting essence
May her moment to birth be separate from harm
Far past the moment when tears from her eyes
Glisten as she holds her newborn in her arms
While loved ones gaze on the miracle which God
Had blessed within every ounce of this bundle
And drown in that grace every time that she glows
With her little one warm in the blanket to cuddle
The moon was here last night
I do not understand the way
I do not understand the way
The sun refuses flight
Where are the morning birds that sing
Where is my mind's intent
To mark down through my everything
The words that beauty sent
I grasp the reasons love can't shine
I know this moment's not
The mark of faith which can design
Just what today forgot
The things that I have grown used to
Have drifted far from me
I wish someone could tell me true
Just who I'm meant to be
It's much too quiet in this void
I feel my muse has fled
The way I wrote she once enjoyed
But now my music's dead
A single note of beauty would
Impress upon the rise
Of all that I had understood
When looking in her eyes
But now is really sometime when
I never knew a rhyme
As lovely as the thoughts within
My poetry sublime
If in thought for every timeyou had been believed
for everything you had made up
then tell me who might see
for everything you had made up
then tell me who might see
what it is you claim to know
and how you wrote that rhyme
that gave you every prop you said
you'd earn in all due time
it seems a little too well known
to me and I see how
you came up with the perfect scheme
to write your feelings down
you came up with the perfect scheme
to write your feelings down
it was originality
that mended both its wings
but just not from the point of view
of you who had began
to go insane with each attempt
by how you couldn't wake
until you read the verses of
a style you'd imitate
it worked in almost every tone
and every word embraced
I think you ought to bow your head
just lower it in shame
why have a poet as a babe
within the woods unfree
and think that they would never know
what still belongs and breathes
what still belongs and breathes
don't you dare deny it
no, it's not worth it to try
cause I know for a fact you tossed
your style to copy mine
If no one seems to understand
then why, why go on
with all you feel within your soul
I don't think that it is wrong
expressing little things I know
is all I've ever longed
there's things that they could never read
if their minds seem so withdrawn
not willing to read within the depth
or see between the lines
of things that lie awake and bare
once placed upon my mind
then mashed at once with all it's breath
through every word I write
if no one seems to understand, then why
why shed light
i thought of writing to you today
on the surface of a napkin at the coffee shop
on the surface of a napkin at the coffee shop
as i got lost in all my thoughts
for all the reason's you hold me together
i held my head inside my hands
then dreamt for awhile as i drifted away
with a cigarette there to calm me
slowly, I thought of the things i could say
but my pen refused to move
and i wondered why, what the hell?!
but things like that may have no reason
so i figured to myself "oh well"
so you see what i'm trying to say
it's the thought that counts and not some stupid poem
but now i wonder what i would've wrote
and what you would never know
for all the reason's you hold me together
i held my head inside my hands
then dreamt for awhile as i drifted away
with a cigarette there to calm me
slowly, I thought of the things i could say
but my pen refused to move
and i wondered why, what the hell?!
but things like that may have no reason
so i figured to myself "oh well"
so you see what i'm trying to say
it's the thought that counts and not some stupid poem
but now i wonder what i would've wrote
and what you would never know
What command of language! remained my though
Of brightened posy, what inventive tale
Which far sheerer than flame darkened by nought
Arose such a feeling far from ghostly pale
For what I had read by the one whose soul
Defined as only genius can do
Certainty, and I became from it whole
Once it granted to me a different view
No delight it'd cast might escape me then
No existence, thus through this molding praise
I alone shall become by my pen
A mere whisper echoed beyond my days
Deep in my mind that acts as my true sightI hide beneath the cloak of my daydreams
While knowing only when I wish too bright
The things I feel within the way life streams
While knowing only when I wish too bright
The things I feel within the way life streams
And by the breadth and height of all I've veiled
I'll shine as validly as what my soul
Does wish for you, oh if my love had failed
Then I'll conceive to let these words console
I'll shine as validly as what my soul
Does wish for you, oh if my love had failed
Then I'll conceive to let these words console
In how you sometimes seem to doubt wherein
If I were more assuring then dear muse
You'd take a look at all the beauty in
Your every ounce of fairness I enthuse
You'd take a look at all the beauty in
Your every ounce of fairness I enthuse
I here attest my truest thoughts that brim
Beyond the depth while all my feeling's whim
Beyond the depth while all my feeling's whim
Unspoken through the echoing mind
And by the pen which strokes with ink
I breathe and attain her every beauty
While the desires within my heart awake
For what I long, I pray to touch
To be her life for always, I
Unmask the secrets in her soul, oh me
How I wish to kiss her lips tonight
And in love I am as the day I gazed
Within her eyes, how it made me tear
Blooming our fate to be together
Deep in our essence, we truly mirror
I breathe and attain her every beauty
While the desires within my heart awake
For what I long, I pray to touch
To be her life for always, I
Unmask the secrets in her soul, oh me
How I wish to kiss her lips tonight
And in love I am as the day I gazed
Within her eyes, how it made me tear
Blooming our fate to be together
Deep in our essence, we truly mirror
i walk the finest line between
a mortal death and a life within
a mortal death and a life within
a dream to last and last, it seems
my life in poetry remains
the only way i can escape
the weariest of all my thoughts
as i pour my ugliness, i take
and mold, and mold, and mold again
until my muse declares 'enough!'
my words in hope to breathe a verse
so beautiful it sings thereof
what circumstances i've endured
here in my heart, and mind, and soul
and oh, by this gentle affair
my thoughts will stay, they will not go
Long before we live, our days at end
Inscribe for us to meet a distant tomb
Prophetic by the wisdom that does mend
Before existence in our mother's womb
A fairness from a precious place we make
A single choice for what our life will be
While fate does reap what first we must create
It's there that all our plans and futures see
Our journey that is meant to grant us time
Yet time is only meant to here conceive
The tone of life while granting us in prime
The things that make us by what we believe
So long before we live, our days at end
Inscribe for us to meet a distant tomb
Prophetic by the wisdom that does mend
Before existence in our mother's womb
Two sides within me hunger for my soulYet knowing which to call when feeling's nigh
Inhabits me with doubt, I am not whole
Why fight when conflict in my heart does pry
I'll do my best to beat the lesser dead
Or tame them both so I won't go insane
And if the one I nourish in my head
Should balance there the chemicals again
Please give me back the way that I once was
And bring my hope to one day reappear
While granting me the strength I lack because
While granting me the strength I lack because
Within my own undying deepest fear
I am alone with no one there to see
Or save me from the way I go astray
And if I'm meant to fail in the debris
These words may the last I will convey
Or save me from the way I go astray
And if I'm meant to fail in the debris
These words may the last I will convey
