Autumn Night
The wood is quite peaceful,
Quiet and serene.
The crickets are chirping their sweet, sad, song,
And the colorful leaves stir beneath my feet as I walk.

The wood is indeed, very peaceful,
And I could live here if I were allowed.
The endearing light of the moon,
It seems so unreal.
A painting.

The fair autumn moon
Show me an orange, bronzy color.
The leaves above me show a dress of many colors,
A rainbow in the canopy.
Bright, brilliant reds.
Dazzling, apple greens.
Bright, midday yellows.
Even chocolate browns.

And the sounds,
Clear and nerve easing.
The wise owl's words of advice,
The rousing of the night's creatures.
And that sweet whisper of the wind,
That cool, gentle wind,
It whispers,
Telling me of long ago,
And brushing my soft, chestnut hair behind me.

A few leaves fall
As the wood's wind pulls them free.
But alas,
I soon must leave.
I blow a kiss to the moon,
Still perched in the sky.
She whispers and talks through the wind,
Wishing me a good night
And many sweet dreams.

The dark forms
Begin to take the shape of
Trees and brush and piles of leaves.
The are becoming complex shapes.
The sky is lighting
Showing new colors.

The night's sights and sounds
F a d e
And the morning sun peaks,
No longer hiding under the earth.
And slowly, slowly like a sloth
A new day dawns.
Shunning out the night.

The crickets begin to close their song,
The owl whispers good night
And the moon disappears,
To sleep in her empty space,
The sky.
She rests with her starry friends.

And to her I say goodnight,
Until tonight that is.

Walking But Never Moving
I've walked these endless roads,
I've walked them for years at end.
I've walked past the hollow houses,
and I've walked past the sputtering lamp posts.

I'm walking, but never moving.
Tripping and never falling.
And I'm in that place,
Where you feel nothing,
Nothing at all.

I've been here before.
I've walked these empty streets,
where my only friends are
Inanimate,
And lonley,
Just like me.

I'm walking these endless roads,
I'm going to walk them for years at end.
I'm walking past empty homes,
and I'm walking past sputtering lamp posts.

I'm streching but never reaching,
Gasping but never breating,
Pushing away all life,
And forcing myself to forget.

Depression and hate,
Anger and denial.
Feelings no one can deny.

I've lost all contact,
With the world.
Altough it was my choice from the begining.

I had the choice to embrace life with all my might,
But I pushed it away,
To regret it later.

I've had every moment to live my life,
But I refused,
Pure ignorence.

I'm going to walk these empty roads for all my life,
I'm going to walk them until I die, or just give up.
I'm know I'm going to pass empty homes,
And past sputtering lamps.

I'm going in circles,
Damned because of my ignorent choices.
My connection to the outside world is bleak,
Can't you see?
Cutting myself makes everything clear,
Like getting a high.

My head spins as I choice my fate,
A metal blade through my chest,
A cylinder of steel piercing my head,
Or a full body slam from a metal beast.

As I walk these emtpy roads,
These empty houses,
These dying lamps,
I think.
'Was this really my choice,
Did I have choice in the beginning?'

And I know
The
Answer.

I had a choice.

I've walked these endless roads,
I've walked them for years at end.
I've walked past the hollow houses,
and I've walked past the sputtering lamp posts.

I'm walking, but never moving.
Tripping and never falling.
And I'm in that place,
Where you feel nothing,
Nothing at all.

I'm streching but never reaching,
Gasping but never breating,
Pushing away all life,
And forcing myself to forget.

Depression and hate,
Anger and denial.
Feelings no one can deny.


I've lost all contact,
With the world.
Altough it was my choice from the begining.
