Betrayed and abandoned He closed the doors on life Lonely days until the final rest Sorrow's burden A hesitant smile A graven image of what was lost I never wanted you to hurt, nor suffer so Can I abandon the place by your side? I never wanted you to hurt, nor suffer so Can we find meaning, and reconcile? To the deepest pits of grief It seems we...Learn More

When every road begat to lunacy The irreversible, the unforgiving Tired daily chores, draining restlessness A sickening spiral we've become Summerdreamer, give way to sorrow Flame falls to familiar, all too fast Forge ahead, the rainy tracks Who gave us free will to forsake? What shimmers may not be gold The hunger of derelict souls Who gave us...Learn More

Reactive tendency, purging acts of senselessness In the throes of uncontrol, waiting for stars to align Growing alienation severing every tie Fading relations, shrinking worlds, cesspools for us to dwell Justify it to yourself by narrowing the view As you turn away, have you seen the light? Mires of human entanglement - all-consuming, cannot be...Learn More

The journey grew us weary Voices, but a distant sigh White noise to fetter us A distant echo of goodbyes When was this life even remotely ours to live?

Did you choose to walk away, yet never strayed? Did you see the pristine, beyond the passing hours? Did your mind stray to the horizon? Was it a disorder to dream? There's no moment to dwell in, only what lingers ahead The treacherous footprints of a wanderer's path There's always another flicker in the distance A promise of something more Small...Learn More

In need of a word, in need of a change Retracing each footstep Forgive my failing hand, forgive my profound words Turning stones to find anything that matters anymore I want to feel joy, quiet and peace I want to see the world that never opened to me The fleeting eyes of innocence The long gone treasures of the open mind It's the urges we hate...Learn More

Creeping forth are images distorted by time Nights of youthful glory, the defining moments As a fading gallery of someone else's life The world's beauty elevated from this mire of concrete The cold stares of this wretched city, I am all this madness amplified As the story fades Dearest memory to remnant of grey What was once all, now the...Learn More

The allure of chaos, the raging tempest Cling to life in the starting blocks As the hourglass grows emptier still Enduring, wallow in weakness of mine The crack in the looking glass To alone tread the pathways in light of spring To have nothing has never been such bliss Is it rain or tears? Savage climate or brooding fears A labyrinth of...Learn More

Reflections, red and white Light source upon pavement The radiance of a sleeping city Rid of the burdens of day Who are we to fight rising tides? Struggling further with no reward With or without, it's always the same Entangled in chains of the past Shaping purpose in empty existance, as fire from extinct ember What is and what could have been,...Learn More

Taking part, serving the eye Scrambling to uphold a hollow mask Self-sacrificed, with a burning hunger You are nothing to them Cursed walks of life, cast to the sidelines Residual abandon Never knowing where the disease ends And the person begins Slam the doors on the brittle and pale Forging pathways through blood and shame Shield your...Learn More

City night brings me back To retread past steps Among the moving shadows Among the distant lights I'm a fly on the wall No more profound moments An overstayed welcome Repeat the cycle of duty Submission's inevitable decline In olden footsteps Nameless shape on the pavement Flickering lights, heightened senses Nocturnal being in transit Solitary...Learn More

This is not the place where dreams take flight This won't be the day ambitions are realized The tired lightsource, spring escaping me This is not the place where dreams take flight In this earthly confine hours linger by "Any place but here", we repeat in sullen tone What's left to strive for in a garden of fear? Clashing wills, tired...Learn More
