RANDOM

To love and to cherish, to live is to die, and some other random stuff in between

So high as a mountain, the highest of highs, but still not enough, or so it would seem!

And here be the lax, the cathartic, platonic at best, chthonic to the world, but still I'd

Move on! For life is but remissions of pain, the hill I would die on, but still I can't leave!

FAILED

Warring with the dirt, absurdly unreserved, and weatherworn be the color of the day...

And here be the inevitable, as there lies unfinished businesses, unrealized dreams...

So where would you think you'd be when it's time for you to deal with it all? Do you know

What to do what countless others failed? So be at peace, or be whatever you want to be...!

SHADOWED

To stars in debts far left of field, streaked caressed bedecked and paved for gleaning

And I am the root the radix the telltale signs, for within twice without hear me roar found on

Hindsight! Paid for doom glazed past boon oh how I praise thee, my dear lilting shadowed

Blights! Preyed on papers fetched for later maybe there is a God if you know where to look...!

ENGRAVED

For the grasp of hell since long, and of thoughts so grey that they felt so wrong

Hides the seen and the sinned twice fried in brief alluding hatred that's gone to ground

For benighted twice arrived as plague engraved so here be me imbibing the lorn in jest

To be me found harsh demeaned let us dance to the sound of chaos, sonorous rave chorus

MADNESS

Agreeable, but does it matter if balance has been achieved? As such

There be the one who wields nothing like a warrior gone totally berserk

So shall this me be the one who stands before the madness, the uncertainty

Paying homage to the time when peace was always an option, sighing at dusk...

DAINTY

So come dainty or come gauntly, for the haunts in sordid departures let me ride you pony

For amendments in fate! Lest the sorrows did borrow a piece of our times in the sun forsooth

I'd be wanting no part of it--be they in truths or untruths! Lest it all be but prompt so baleful, so

Blessed but wasteful so hear me now or here be me coming in for the kill, for late night redemptions...

THANKFUL

Should I strive for a better tomorrow? Or is that tomorrow already here you think?

Then come throng this path of life en route to a brighter future, and place your bets

In life for whatever it takes to make you alive, to make you feel thankful that there will

Always be another day in the sun, as this great world it turns to another new dawn...

NONCHALANT

So suave deigned nonchalant let it be and let it be, as

I am the dreamer who comes with dreams sustaining

To bring down the rain and draw down the moon, for hasty

Twice dainty I did swear to see the world on shoulders of giants

CONCEALED

For the end I feigned dry ignorance, found defaced tried once concealed in grins

And the pages keep flipping like the signs keep flipping so why does one bothersome

Encounter would warrant such a detour? But hey, it already happened so forgive and

Forget and then we'd all feel so much better, right? Not a snowball of a chance in hell...!

THE ROAD

So here lies the road that leads to nowhere, and here lies the perpetual sunset of a lucid dream

And here be the fresh start to the one who's never seen the light but desires to do so still...

So what now can but stop me from receiving the twilight catharsis? What is there waiting

Down the line for us to grieve still? Is there some sweet sacrifice involved? What now?

FOREVER

So here be the trek that spans the yonder

And here be the hope of a better forever

For we are but children of fate trying to find our own place

And we are but forever bound to the wonders of existence

VAGABOND

So here there'd eternity, a path to tomorrow that is neither set in stone nor favors anyone in particular!

And here there'd be me on this trek from ruin en route to catharsis, a wanderer a vagabond

From places found in search of another way out, a-dreaming of a better world! So what

Say you, my friend? Are we here for the same thing? Or are we just passing through?

THE LAST

So maybe this be the last, the final spark of joy before uncertainty dawns again

I don't know what to think about tomorrow, or maybe if tomorrow is still

Relevant to any of us? But all I do know is, that this won't be the last, that I will not give in even

If it kills me! But whether I'd crash again or not, I would know, that I'd lived life to the fullest!

TIME AND SPACE

Say what you will about time and space but I still prefer the ending rather than the beginning

So maybe this hell on earth is coming to an end and, maybe, just maybe, I can be happy again?

After years and years of busting my ass off trying to achieve my goals and dreams, is it okay

To say that life still sucks? Or maybe we all just need to take another view of life is that it?

THE WORLD

Lay the blackness upon our paths, for as soon as our backs are turned the world will screw us

Up yet again! Impart no words of wisdom or soothing sweet nothing for humanity's still not fit

For saving! For soon to boon on this twilight catharsis thus I invite ye to surrender all hope

For fleeting comfort, forsooth there is solace in knowing that we're all doomed from the start!

A SPARK OF GLEE

On trusts and smiles and perfect days, oh so soon I'd say I'd lose my way, of veil aglow in darkest nights

But could I see a spark of glee this heart of mine? Could I dare to dream and give back love? So please

Come back and stay, to call upon my way, aroused to grace ablaze, so reach me like the sun and say there is

But hope, to gain more laughs for golden meadows, my perfect daytime dreaming heights, sweetened sights...

Incredible Shot!

PIECES

So what now is left for me to offer this world, apart from pieces of torn skies? Can't see the sun on my walls

Can't feel the way life speaks on life, with no heart not even broken, all my life just flutters grey, like coming down

From heavens torn, like watercolours in the rain, for a place to call my home, for a spot to feel but love

And I'm but a train that rolls on by, amassing grand dreams, for a smile worth believing, to grace the night and touch the sun...
