To the Fore

Take all there is
Of the world in your eyes
And tell me that you’re not afraid
Even now, there’s a hope
A fleeting desire
But still I see that you’re afraid
Here I go;
With my heart aflame
I lack faith, but I yearn to feel the same
Here I go;
With my soul ablaze
Hold my hand ‘til I pass away
Meet me there
No disputes will arise
When Sunlight sets over stars of grey
Meet me now
There’s a hope that you can’t hide away
When we all are part of the game

Mote of Dust

I remember when I was young
A child questioning the essence of life
In my internal visions
I saw the truth arise
I look now to when I’m old
And hope to have learnt the secret
I lay and dream
Dream of times ahead
And of those that have passed into memory
Like reuniting with happiness
A snapshot in time
Where all was good and all was right
And kindness was alive
Those moments never age as you do
And you know that you can’t just simply rewind
I lay and dream
Dream of times ahead
And of those that have already passed
Lost in a dream
Of exploding stars
My universe eclipsed
I wear life’s scars
Yet, Still I float on and on
Ageless and eternal
Like a mote of dust
In the morning sky
I remember when I was young
A man learning the essence of life
In my trials and errors
I found the truth alive
Now I look to when I’m old
And hope to have shared the secret.

Habitual

I’ve been thinking again
Thinking again of all things I really want to be
I’ve been set in stone for so long
So long it’s hard to remember what change feels like
Why is it that
Why is it that when I’m ignorant I have much more fun?
Maybe I can alter it and conquer this feeling
This feeling of Habitual passiveness
Holed up!
No!
Am I ever gonna make it
Home?
Because in reality it’s not gonna fly
When you’re 55 and still don’t know why
I’ve been thinking again
Thinking again of all things I thought that I would be
I’ve been trapped in stone for so long
So long it’s hard to remember what change feels like
Please don’t let me go
I’ll show you that I can
But I’ll need your helping hand
Because I’m holed up
No!
Am I ever gonna make it
Home!
Because in reality it’s not gonna fly
When you’re 55 and don’t even try

Sorrowtar

I will be universal
I can’t just be forgotten
I get amusement out of
Feeling the worth drain out of me
What is it that moves inside me?
Drip fed pain and blue surprises
Why am I so motivated to be so unmotivated?
It’s left inside to consume all my hurt
Absorbing filth, collecting sorrowtar
Burying it’s dirty burrow
Leeching off my very marrow
Drowning life, goodness slain
Inside, outside
Revel in the pain
I will be universal
I can’t just be forgotten
I want amusement out of
Feeling my worth drain out of me
It’s left inside to consume all my hurt
Absorbing filth, collecting Sorrowtar
It’s left inside to consume all my hurt
Absorbing filth, Collecting sorrowtar
Collecting sorrowtar
Collecting sorrowtar
Collecting sorrowtar
Collecting sorrowtar

Dream a Dream

Fall asleep
Let me dream
Peel away
This dark day
Sink into another realm
You greet me but you are ill
I dream a dream and see you die
Watching paleness cover you
There is nothing that I can do
Rigor sets through my life
Bathed in sadness
I watch you die
Dream the dream
The sudden fear of never waking
Dream the dream
Hoping that you’re still here with me
Dream the dream
Place your cold dead fingers on me
And live again
Through the window
The sun rises
I dreamt the dream
And saw you die
