Good evening to the cliff
The one that leers above
Challenging the leap
With rubbles that tumble down
With broken hearts that finally shatter
Good evening to the sky
The one that widens 'round
Surrounding with their spattered skies
With black blooded stains
With white flaring scorns of disdain
Good evening to the sea
The one that trembles below
Waving final sayings, tides of goodbyes
With swirls of treachery
With educing calls of end
Good evening to the world
The one that doesn't care if she drowns
Ignoring her sadness, her tears, her pain
With closed ears to cries
With hearts made of stone
Good evening
and Goodbye...

The Bridge
-----------------
Among the Wooden Paths,
I stride alone in the Empty Forest,
The wind behind my back,
Blowing softly and pushing me forward.
Moments in time suddenly seem to halt,
As I watch from afar,
The bridge that lies before me,
Am I strong enough to lay my hand?
Across its wooden surface?
Can I cross it?
Find the path hidden in the shadows ahead of me?
Can I find Courage in the darkness so bleak?
To find a light that will guide me?
Moments turn...
Minutes Pass...
Seconds fade away.
Across the Bridge,
Across the Gap,
Leading to my pride,
Leading to my Courage,
Leading to my Hope,
Leading to my Love...

With beauty may come happiness, but with happiness always comes beauty.
When's the last time you did something for the first time?
Must I pretend I'm someone else, for all time?
I don't understand how I can care this much, when you don't care at all.
If you can't handle me at my worst, you certainly can't handle me at my best.
All that matters is who you are and the choices you make; that is what makes you, you.

The DarknessThe Darkness6 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
The world is such a scary place;
Reality is a nightmare...
Darkness surrounds us,
And threatens to destroy
Everything we love.
If we don't have support in life,
We might as well quit.
It's pointless.
Everyone has to face the darkness;
Together.
Maybe then,
The darkness will go away,
Leave us alone,
And light will return...
But if we don't,
The chaos and fear
Will consume everything,
And the world we know
Will shatter.
Please don't leave me
To face the darkness
On my own.
Because I can't-
Not without you.

The chill in the breeze,
The frost on the ground,
Crisp on a moonlit night.
A young boy's figure
Glides through the streets,
His breath a clouded fog.
Eyes like crystals,
Hair like snow,
He walks with staff in hand.
Alone in the world,
Unseen by all,
He strides like a ghost through the town.
Young children seen
Through a window pane,
Bask in the glow of the hearth.
Unseen goes the boy
Who stares unnoticed and lost
At the joy before his eyes.
A tentative move,
A soft hand to the glass,
Which freezes beneath his touch.
He turns away,
To the dark of the night
And raises his head to the sky.
A tear flows unseen,

Mortality
Living in my skin
It's like a severe drug addiction
It becomes lethal in the long run
It's a destruction that can't be undone
I am my own reaper
I am my own savior
-
A scythe is my cross
This blasphemy cannot be stopped
Only those with true despair
Can wield this type of fear
For those who are born in sorrow
Know how to deal with living so hollowed
I had to cast aside my weak point of view
Because there are no demons nor angels
I am my own villain
I am my own hero
Although my perceptions of light and dark
Mean nothing to my already tainted heart
I know reality is what it needs to be
I know there was no hope for someone like

LiarLiar6 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Liar you say?
Why don't you explain?
I've never done anything
No wrongful deeds towards you
If you say that as such
Then I really believe
That you are the hypocrite here
Lying your beliefs away
You say that you're my companion
But then turn around only again
Directing attention toward those
That are of the more importance
Maybe I'm the only one who's prideful
Who doesn't understand
But then tell me, tell me
Do you truly comprehend?
Liar, liar set flames afire
Don't you say such misconceptions
They bring me down only to bring you up
On a pedestal of deception

White Rose, White
Rose, you are, white
as the first snow of
winter.
Your petals are soft as
Silk, but tough as steel
to hold off the elements.
You are timeless as the years
drag on, season after season
you remain as beatiful.
As beatiful when you have
first blossom in the morning
spring air.
You will always remain my timeless

Forget all the problems from the past,
Life sometimes just goes too fast.
Don't blink, because it can be over in a flash,
It might be fast, but don't do anything too rash.
The future will always be uncertain
It stands before you like a big dark curtain.
You will always carry the past with you
But don't let it turn you blue.
Follow your dreams and hopes
Don't get dragged down by some dopes
Just follow your own way
Even when all turns gray
You might not feel like doing that on a rainy day
But luckily for you
Today looks like it will be a beautiful day

The light hurts. It burns into my brain [do I still have one?] and sears my skull [maybe only a part of it.] Light has never hurt like this before, nothing has ever hurt like this before, not even lying on the sidewalk and becoming one with the concrete and mixing red with the white snow. Dark shapes move above me, talk about me, poke and stab me. I can't move. I can't move. I can't speak or call out, and even if I could, there's no point. I know there's no one that I can talk to [without giving him away.]
I don't know what day it is, or what time of day. I only know that it's day, because of the painful light. Scott moves uneasily behind my

Gather the elders, let the ministers wail
We'll take back the years that the enemy's stolen
Lord, You are coming with a holy visitation
Sound the alarm, and awaken the watchmen
Open their ears, let their voices be loud
We prophecy You'll come to this nation
Touch this generation with a holy visitation
We return to You,
Fasting and weeping and mourning
Oh my Lord, You're returning
We lie here weeping,
Between porch and altar
Pour out Your Spirit on Your sons and Your daughters
We dance
We shout
We lift up our voices
So that Your kingdom come down
Sound the alarm, and awaken the watchmen

Surrounded by the friends of my most hated enemies
It is only now
Staring into the eyes of my captor
It is only now
As the sky turns to pitch and the ground sways beneath
It is only now
(I know)
The Game has changed.
(I do not look away.
I am not afraid.)
There is nothing (something) can do.
Set me free.
Tilt your head
You stare at me.
Set me free.
Look at me. Look at my face.
Set
You want to release the animal inside.
Set me
I kiss the ground. Black all around.
The Game has changed.

Relax and float down stream
It is not dying
It is not dying
Lay down all thoughts,
Surrender to the void
It is shining
It is shining
Yet you may see
The meaning of within
It is being

Love is all
And love is everyone
It is knowing
It is knowing
And ignorance and hate
May mourn the dead
It is believing
It is believing
But listen to
The color of your dreams
It is not living
It is not living
So play this game
"Existence" to the end
Of the beginning

There is a change in the wind
It is about to begin
The clouds are rolling in
He's coming again
Light flashes in the sky
Angels with trumpets they cry
The signs like banners fly
The Lord comes from on high
It echoes in the clouds
Feel it shaking the ground
His voice like thunder sounds
Let's get ready now!
Light flashes in the sky
Angels with trumpets they cry
The signs like banners fly
The Lord comes from on high
Grow not weary, do not faint
In the mystery of His delay
Because near draws the day
When He will take us away!
Light flashes in the sky
Angels with trumpets they cry
The signs like banners they fly
He's coming

Just an accepted part of me
One that cannot be changed
A reminder of what was
And should not be again
But just a reminder?
Just a memory to so easily be left behind?
Not this one
It sometimes is where it shouldn't still be
It still burns
With the fire and pain of what left it
Revealing the others
Visible on the surface
Emanating regret and sorrow
The scar still burns
And what was may still be
Coverable
But sadly unchangeable
At least not alone.
