No longer willing to remain quiet
Or quell this every growing roit
Deep down this foundation
Crumbling beneath the frustration
Those whom consume my sanity
Constantly burying me in their vanity
Draining every ounce of feeling
Yet I’m still there and willing
My words are welcomed in
But lost again and again
Then looking straight through
Like a distant memory they once knew
This very fate I’ve met
I’ll just forgive and forget

We all have these demons we’re fighting
Clawing, ripping, and bitting
Paralyzed by torture and plague
Day after day we plead and beg
Praying for sweet sincerity
Yet, fall into solidarity
Broken, beaten, and scared
An internal conflict left impaired
We create that which we fear
Clouding what should be so clear
These sins that bar our path
Forcing us to face torments’ wrath
Maybe it hurts to move
But we’ve all something to prove
Maybe it seems implausible
But nothing, nothing is impossible
This dark, inescapable place
Did we fall far from grace?
With this ominous cloud
That follows us all around
As pain that plagues
Deep down cascades
Like the fear we feel
Is all too real
We’re bound by these chains
But, by the blood flowing in these veins
We’ll elude these shadows cast
For as long as this heart will last
A promise made
Simply just cannot fade
Two simple colours
Outside,
lustrous and vibrate
Admired so immensely
But inside,
Dulled and withering
Fearing the animosity of loneliness
Dreaming of sweet compassion
Just to imagine
A moment’s euphoria
Blended ever so beautifully
Of pure fascination
Like crystallized fantasy
Awaiting realization
Seeking their harmonisation
To collide side by side
As two simple colours run
They wake as one
Note: Written and inspired by someone whose colour runs together with mine.
I know there’s this monster
It’s insatiable hunger for death
Deep inside me,
Ravaging and thrashing to be free
I know life is like this;
This upside-down hourglass
Seemingly nothing to do but,
Watch the ominous sand fall
I know I’m weak
But…
I have heart and soul
My indestructible compassion
I know I’m scared
But…
I have courage and spirit
My fearless confidence
I know my time is short
As the sand slips through my fingers
I want to know more
What am I fighting for?
I know someone Is there
Out there somewhere
To help keep this beast at bay
Just for once, just that way
