As the light of life appears before me
I reach out and try to grasp it before it fades
Yet I am held by my own adversity
In the face of my trades of thy soul
Lost forever is the truth
One seeks to gain within the life one lives
As fate is cruel and life so short
To never overcome
The discrepancies under which we thrive
And yet never live in true knowledge
Unless we dream of our fate in the recesses
Of our mind
The noise and the light
Dost they pull me from myself
Yet never am I free for
Worldly connections strong
Against the bond of the soul
As it attempts to reach its salvation
Towards that which is never judged
And happiness is eternal
Dark and flowing like the blackness
Of the impurities of the soul
Blood surges through the bodies
Of those who live and yet
Often live in ignorance of truth
Tis a bittersweet drink
That slates the thirst when
Nothing else suffices
Except for the pulse of metal
Of life dead would we be
Yet death may be the strongest
Truth in that which we may believe.
The true essence of power
Corrupts those to which it binds
Greed which can never be sated
Yet the lust for more
Destroys those who live
In the Shadow of such
The lives of countless innocents
Sacrificed for mere minutes
In the glory and
Euphoria of the attainable
Darkness that is often
Misused for the sake of pettiness
How pointless is life
To the extent of human emotion
What purpose does it rain down
Upon the human psyche
Is life just an awaiting judgment
In the fires of the soul?
Are we all truly damned
To an eternity of darkness and grief?
Or does it truly hold some meaning
To those of us
Without thought or care
Upon this plain of our existence?
Trapped in the Darkness
Unable to escape
I struggle with myself
To realize what is only fear
Which binds me
And to overcome I find myself
Within myself and conquer it
Power and Care
Anger and Sorrow
Like a distant mirror
The sea is never distinguished
By simple sight
Moods ever shifting
Surface ever changing
It shall never be tamed
By anything but itself
