We Need No Reason

Why Does reason even matter. Why Do words falter some. Why Does a single comment alter. These words left unsung. Is strength true in unity, or in my army of one.

Nineteen Creatures

(Nineteen creatures including man, find them if you think you can). The rabbi tells stories. The monk eyes piece as glory. The lad ogles the girls. The chef caters the world. Take a go at being great.

Controversial

Why do we value human life. Some people want to die. Beg to die. Why don't we let them die. Why do we try to save them. Why do we encourage them to cope with their misery.

So Close. Yet So Far.

Little bird. Trapped in a cage. So alone. Isolated from the world. You can see the clear blue sky. Just enough to dream of what it might be like. But will you ever be able to soar. To fly sky high.

Stand Apart

I've got a pain, In my chest, That's not my heart, And at best, I guess I'm falling apart at the seams, Just like my dreams.

Our Deceiving Eyes

When you look up at the sky on a cloudless night, All you you see is black. But when your eyes adjust and you look closer, you see little specks of light. They're the stars.

#colourchallange. #beginningline. I'm all alone now. Everybody's gone. I'm all alone now. I see It's begun. It's getting closer. Encroaching with haste. Darkness falls on me. The ebony draped.

Just A Game

When. The day is over. Will you be there to follow. As we walk alone. Will you. Look up at the light. Bleeding from the starry sky. As we walk on home. Would you. Take my hand in yours.

Choose How To Die

If you could choose how to die What would it be. Hung by your tie. Wounded by fleas. Death by love, Death by sweets- Eaten by doves, Choking on beets.

#nightdwellers Seas of back and white and grey, Rise of Night and fall of Day. I look around as the colours fade, From white to a much darker shade.

The City That Won't Sleep Tonight

Close your eyes against the light, The orange, blue and blazing white, The flashing sirens in the night, The city that won't sleep tonight.

Fallen

Asking what he's meant to do, When the truth's just another path to choose, 'Cause he's fallen to my knees here, And he has everything to lose. We shouldn't be trapped in lies.

Nothingness

Pale lips and ghostly touch, A light without heat in the dead of the night, A gentle gaze frosted over by the days spent, Bringing life to the dying and love to the spite.
