The Dark Abyss

This dark abyss

I know not

But sometimes

All too well

I do have

That frame of mind

But can you catch your fish

And hope it’s big?

The dark deep waters running

Still underneath your scars

The skin burns

Aching for more

I do not need anymore

Of this I cannot say

Will you be there today?

Where are you I ask

I ask again

Repeatedly get the same answer

I do not know

What it is this life

It stores and bursts

A balloon without air

I breathe and sink

Into the dark abyss

That loud bang

Of the window

Startles me

To know

This is just…

Finish that sentence

And I will let go

But a period less

Timeless phase

Electrifies those nerves

You can’t walk straight

Into this path

That was carved

The road ahead

Destiny and fate

Or a pile of choices

You hate

Being there

Over here

You can’t stay

Anywhere forever

You will go

Distance yourself from

Come back

Yes I am here

But wait

There I am

Sitting at the computer

Thinking

Of an end

But the means to it

Can you find

Yourself

But are you lost

In thought

Of who I am

Is of an eternal quest

For those things you crave

You must pay

A price

That’s worth

But who are you to judge

What you are swallowed by

Is not in your hand

Destiny it is

But only when you sift

Through the abyss

I flow

Sinking deep

Into the shadows

Sit outside

And lament

The part you can’t find

Is what you seek

A terrible pleasure

Or pain

While it whistles

Tickling your ears

Strands of hair

Fly away

Dandelion of dreams

Soft and white

But never seen

Or caught

And crushed in the hands

Or a cruel smile

Oh yes, there is a plan

To forge and fulfil

Will never be easy

To achieve that eternal desire

Of a breezy summer

With flowers and wind

You can sing

A tune caught in your memory

Plays throughout the night

As the water gushes in

I kick and squeal

To a terrible ringing

Alert now to the green and blue

Reflections of what I once knew

Of the dirty mud laden dregs

On the freshly born earth

Weeps a new tired heart

Filled with secrets

Are the pots of gold

Never enough to satisfy

Satiate the old hunger

With your mouth

And hands are required

To reach your endless pit

You must leave the bottom

Of your rock hard base

You rise

Into that abyss

You sink twice

Height of Randomness!

The apple was hot as a cake

I never knew I could bake

A crow shat on my head

My room's purple,even my bed

I sought some refuge

It started to pour

The rain at night

Is never a bore

The horse sat down

Thats funny coz they never do

the birds flew

Jumbled and scrambled

Do you like honey dew?

Biscuits and tea are served

Would you like milk or sugar?

I like my coffee cold

But my hand feels numb

Can you hear the thunder?

I wore a red dress

Never looked prettier

Oh yes, you are funnier

Have I been here before?

No ma'am, never

Can you sit in my chair?

Park the car downstairs

Will you be here on the 17th?

Yes, my calendar is free

Wait! The sun just set

Lets eat ice cream

The car is in the driveway

There is nobody on the swing

I like bubblegum when its pink

She told me a secret

But she told everyone else

Can you hoist a flag

And be a pirate too?

My bag is yellow

The flush doesn't work

My carpet's green

Do you like Charlie Sheen?

The Titanic sunk

but the movie was awesome

So kudos to you James Cameron

I love chatting

Can you smell my hair?

Dont wear your shoes

Come home at midnight

The pumpkin's too thick

Will you have some pie?

I tied a donkey to your back

You're a fool and an ass

There is nothing like cheese

Can you spot my lucky coin?

Have you heard this song?

I have a toothache

Red blue green yellow

The crocodile ate my Jell-o

The charging is done

Leave the sidewalk

Can you hear me?

Screaming inside your head

Are you deaf and dead?

Leave no mess behind

You have no pain

Just laugh and laugh your day

Through and through

The ship has sailed

Wanna catch its tail?

Throw yourself in a river

kick and swim

Is it hot in here?

I can't keep my feet in

Do you have a plane?

The stars play a game

Sit and stare

Ramble and blabber

I cant hear you

The apple is cold

the bread is stale

Will you be my playmate?

I love the sky

black and blue

Sit on top

Wear a coat

Is that Shakespeare you quote?

The spider's web

A tangled mess

Plastic bags

You hate wars

Did your sister call?

Does this come in peach?

Lighting, one..two..three..

Thunder, thunder, thunder

Try and breathe

Hug and complete

This journey you started

Now for the retreat

Dance and sway to the beats!

Hear that loud and clear

The fog and mist in your ear

Close your eyes and listen

A thousand thoughts your heart has spoken.

NEW

A calm placid face

A restful smile

A content sigh

and a peaceful acceptance 

The darkness unleashes

Anger and pain

A river of black blood flows

Constantly feeding on your fears

Fleas in your mind

Pluck at your remorse

Surviving the guilt and hatred

A crushed ant struggling to move

It all oozes out 

Until you cant move

Happiness contained

Momentary glances

You froze the ones you felt the most

But forget the ones that meant the most

A dawning light

Wet grass and hay

A dry spell of remembrance

You are what you frame

Capture that which you cherish

Erase what you fear

It isn't an alternate reality

For there is no alternate to reality

A truth untold

Submerged in the subconscience 

Waters deep, and buried

Under an immovable rock

The Mind

Hard as stone

Blocked and walled

Can’t build a lock without 

A latch and key

Unbolt that you hold dearly

Smile with wonder

Awe and surprise

Pleased and renewed

by this strength you find

Happiness unleashed

Expressed, experienced and persevered

Frozen in this moment 

That Immortal bliss

An eternity of peace

LOST

A cold wet shiver

rain splashes across the window

the dogs howl

the crickets screech

a painful heart weeps

A dimming memory

brought back to life

Attempts of suppression are in vain

buried treasure should remain hidden

A sharp taste of salt and rust

against the forked tongue

screams of deafening power

refuse to come out 

while the withered soul

remains locked away forever

A dark dingy dungeon

it travels through the walls

searching for its master

to be  tamed, to be controlled

mourning, wanders aimlessly

An angelic face

pale white skin

peaceful as a baby

sleeping

awoken when provoked

eyes fly open

bloodshot and wide

with a malicious smile

burns you down

in a flash of anger

A cursed fire

feeds off your flesh

you pray it eats you

but it leaves you

Bleeding for more

unmending scars

that tickle as the harsh

wind blows

licking and caressing

the wounds

waiting to be cut open

The blood trickles down

stains your skin as it flows

you want it to stop

but you cant make it go

An eyeball whizzes around

clasps your neck

pulls your head

excruciating pain

you wish you were dead

The creature tears you

pulls from the inside

nerves, tissues and sinew

bites and scratches 

tightens its claws around you

All you feel is the plunging

of its sharp nails

you force open your eyes and find

they are your hands

A stab to the heart

you beg and plead

to end this dreadful feat

A final blow when you see

it dancing in your shadows

closing in

cant breathe

waiting for the void

to knock you off your feet

A thoughtless gaze

A blurry haze

wanting to know

how to regain control

but wanting to be

just the way you seem

Surviving, barely existing

floating through the stagnant air

in the dungeons of your mind

a mangled creature glides

its stench frosts  

the sealed walls

it has no escape

chained to your body 

for all of eternity

The Fallen

A shot and a high pitched scream
Is all you can hear
But not the force of the fall
Even though your near

Eyes wide open
Nostrails flaring
Cud'nt complete exhaling
As he drew his last breath

A fallen hero he stands
Reduced to an urn of ashes
Buried Below the ground
But you can't bury those memories
That haunt you dusk to dawn

A folded flag is all she gets
To remind her of what he did
Each time he was away
But now she has no one to await
Just an empty side of the bed

Someone somewhere weeps
Howls with sorrow
Cannot find the strength
To move on and live,
How can you when
She just fell
Right before your eyes
Even before you could realise
She was taken away from you
But now that she is gone
How can you be you?

Somewhere in the cold they whimper
No one to throw a blanket over
No one to love or be loved
Walking around like corpses
No one to notice whether they exist
No one to know they ever lived

Human lives reduced to tears
Some are mourned and grieved
Some a fly's feast
All the glories of the past
Only some songs are sung
But nothing ever lasts

Inspired By A Thousand Years-9

I saw you burn and bleed
My small eyes couldn't read
The pain echoing through you
As you sat there endlessly
Head in you hands
Tears in your eyes
All you wanted was an escape
I now understand
'cause I am sitting here now
Head my hands
Tears in my eyes
All I want is an escape
From you.

You taunted me with your stupid lies
I trusted everything I saw of you
But you never let me be me
I hated you and I still do
You took away my ignorance

And now that I'm aware
I can't ever erase
What I ve seen and what I ve heard

But then again
If it wernt for you
I wudnt be this today
Alive

I guess I knew all along
That you do love me
Even though sometimes you hate me

And I know now
That even though sometimes I hate you
I will always love you

Inspired By A Thousand Years-8

You can't cut where you bleed
You can't heal what you feel
The urge to run ovepowers you
But you can't runaway from you

There's something inside my head
A battle raging, a million dead
Thoughts I never knew
Makes you feel like you're new
To yourself and everything else
You believed to be true

 You can't cut where you bleed
You can't heal what you feel
The urge to run ovepowers you
But you can't runaway from you

A million oppositions stand
Against you, I can't fight
Even if means to lose myself
I'd loose me than you
But who am I?
And who the hell are you?

 You can't cut where you bleed
You can't heal what you feel
The urge to run ovepowers you
But you can't runaway from you

We are in an endless chase
Inside this never ending maze
No way out but which way did we come in?
We will never know the end
Untill it comes but till then
We have no end to this war
All we know is that it starts

You can't cut where you bleed
You can't heal what you feel
The urge to run ovepowers you
But you can't runaway from you

But you can cut what you feel
Hide when it bleeds
Try to run even though you won't get far
But you can't runaway from you.
