Storm filled skies of emotion decreed,
from a single flake to mountain crested.
The avalanche of grim silence adds speed,
gaining mass with each minute invested.
Slipping and sighing, screaming and sliding,
Tranquility hastens devastation.
Each sunrise we face response in hiding,
contributes to our hearts glaciation.
Reading truth on the universal wall,
shows memories are the only true cost.
Gravity and entropy impact all,
energy to matter and nothing lost.
The laws of physics will always apply,
Another will glow in your lost supply.
Used to love this car, the freedom it gave me was boundless,
flying down the road from dusk to the far bright dawn.
instant response to handling, rapid speed, all fears groundless.
Top down, wind in my hair, forever onward drawn.
Sun beating down on my face, warmth on my chest,
flowing smoothly down glass-like blacktopped roads.
Purring up every hill, rapidly reaching every crest,
one little press of pedal and the power explodes.
Gazing upwards to see those pedals overhead,
pulling the cushions ripped from the backseat tight.
The chill has set in, encouraging my dread,
broken leg throbbing, each movement a new bite.
I shift around
In a world of strife and misery,
we so often forget our history.
War is never the path we seek to run,
but flowers can never replace the gun.
For if we were to remove all weapons in a day,
some would still use their bare hands to slay.
A soldier\'s path is one of the truest loves,
ready to die defending both hawks and doves.
For love of country, and respect of their fellow man,
dying in pain, dying with love, for their nation\'s plan.
I once was a soldier, and I stood tall when asked,
I accomplished my mission, did what I was tasked.
Now a new generation is given similiar goals,
Mirrored ceilings, velvet floors,
a chauffeur driven limousine.
The Party can never start,
until you make the scene.
Learning nothing, leaving less,
faster faster never slow down.
Lost in the silver lining,
locked in the merry-go-round.
The silver spoon begins to tarnish,
the music, the booze, the midnight lines.
Left alone now, the parties all over,
played it close too many times.
Dancing in the desert,
dust stinging in your eyes.
Took a mischance of fortune,
too make you realize.
A simple toss of ivory dice,
twisting, twining, threads of fate.
Caught up, lost in t
Hot sun fades down to dusk
Day sweat turns night musk
Wind blowing away the heat
Night settles onto the street
Shorts and bikinis put away
Evening clothes rise to play
Breeze singing ocean spray
The cats come seeking prey
Tight jeans and black t-shirts
Short blouses and mini-skirts
Neon lights burn cooling streets
Flowing in air hear music beats
Endless chase begins anew
The view shifts a little askew
He steps along to stalk her
Eyes meet emotions stir
Predatory juices are flowing
Both meet minds knowing
Dust dancing around our pairing
Veil between
Life was lost, then I discovered a map,
An old man in the street, shouting my name,
I could hear him speak, hear his lips move,
Unable to hear, feeling his grief and blame.
He screamed at me, shook me in madness
Slapped me twice, and knocked me around,
His words broke through and I felt the pain
Comprehension dawned slowly as I fell to the ground
My future self-reaching back through time itself
Giving me millions of reasons to hold onto life
He foretold a future I shrouded by my doubt,
Stuck in my world of anger mistrust and strife.
Screaming he struck me again, laughing at my weakness
Reminding me of strength, I would endlessly
Fighting the loss of fantasy,
Pushing myself into sleep.
Wishing the sun would never rise,
It comes and I begin to weep.
Dancing through the dreams,
Defending the fading tatters.
Each representing happiness,
Trying to find the one that matters.
Crystalline like a shattered mirror,
Each shard darkening to coal.
Flying away upon the wind,
As the sun begins piecing my soul.
The warm light envelops me,
And away the illusion sold.
Disintegrating into dust,
Like a vampire of old.
I catch a momentary glimpse,
From the corner of my eye.
One aura covered fragmen
Encased in steel I stand, guarding the walls of my soul,
a knight in dulled armour, emptiness is my only goal.
I wear a flaming sword, created in the forges of pain,
enpowered by the memories, I will never face again.
Standing on the tower, built of flawless steel,
surveying my twisted realm, wondering what is real.
Am I or am I merely a spector, like the ghastly figures of light,
on the plains around me, locked in my eternal work of night.
I feel something close to pity, for the denizens of my land,
for each of them were created, by the sword in my hand.
Some for their love, some for their ha
Can you hear me, for I am the scream behind this screen.
Searching for reality, lost amongst the dream.
I seek you, in a world of others, found through lines of force,
A normal relationship, running a virtual course.
Routed to your perfection, switched to your soul.
Internetworked to your fantasy, connection my only goal.
Yes, I can hear you, a voice from distant past-
Running through my memory, catching up at last.
The seeker and the sought after overcome futility,
Connect to send and recieve, to make the dream reality.
Though time detained the signal, and we\'ve paid the painful cost,
It has met it\'s destination, and now n
