Homecoming 541

So long I'm cruising about
homesick in foreign fields
during a dreadful isolation
I drag behind an invisible sheid
See I know the destination
life, keeps to be delayed

the time I spent away
exploring my own journey
I find my ghosts dreaming
in the most peculiar ways
a faint spark of tear, blur
a moment of hope, stir


When I slide in hiding
I believe I'm only older
burn my diary in the spotlight
watch as my angry skies ignite
I pray when I return all words cease
I pray, one day, I may rest in peace

New Apocalypse

Mirrors with no glass the mismatched gloves
I place the broken brakes in speeding cars
I search through the debris for the golden key
as if it was decided with this complacency
Under moon's shadow soloist performs alone
I pray before I go play me another song
Never to let go of such an exquisite tune
Reasons to admit that the end is too soon
old rhymes begin to blur as the news stirs
I wonder what you are back here to cure
Secret disclosure I am inclined to implore
Leisurely you point out the love you bear
you have no idea how long I've waited
Oh dear, long before the world was made

“I don't want to live. I want to love first, and live incidentally.”

What A Wonderful World

The hole burns right through my chest
the crossroad of dark and light to where
the world we know only moves forward
if it is full of the corrupt and the sinister
The hope in us why anyone should ignore
the texture of the rain and the open road
the greatness in love and an open heart
you're never alone, What a sight to behold
Two roads decide the reasons for humanity
One leads you to disturbance and reform
the other more than ignorant contentment
So many choose madness some declare
You choose to be offended only if you dare
The recklessness of whom I do not condone
do you need them as your motivation
nothing more than foolish self-justification
do you need them as excuses to embrace
your desires to reach all of the lost souls

"The Secret Garden"

Accidentally stolen
demise of wisdom
Unconsciously fallen
asleep in your Eden
fire cloak that face
my desires forbidden
fog hide from death's veil
of taste so colorful
