Untitled

I feel myself splitting in two,
I watch myself walk away.
I am being pulled toward
something I can't control.
I can only stand and
watch myself fall.
The earth opens and
swallows me.
I am out of reach!
I wonder if I will drown.
"Someone help me!"
No one hears my muffled cries.
My voice is mute.
I take a quick breath and
surrender. I'm drowning!
Something forces me
back to the surface.
I grab hold, pull myself together,
walk away and never look back.

Long Ago

On this paper lies my words black as the night above.
Twisted and mangled with despair and sadness, void of love.
On this paper lies my soul searching for tomorrow.
Looking for a place of dreams to help me escape this sorrow.
Reality creeps in like a serpent looking for its prey.
And coils its slithery body around my dreams...to kill away.
What is life in this negative world full of extinct dreams.
Reality makes you insane in this cold cruel world it seems.
When imagination dies and fantasy fades away.
You no longer wanna live for tomorrow you'll dwell on yesterday.

Burned

The fire unside my heart angrily rages
consuming every last feeling of what I thought
was love for you until
all that's left
of my broken heart is
embers and ash...

what will become
of this heart not too soon
forgotten and what will become of me?
To be reborn of the ash
like a phoenix ressurected
or die to leave me utterly
alone...
