#opussweeklychallenge Dear Future I don't smoke, but here I am Flicking grey ash to the ground There's no real panic considering Not even a pin drop sound They've asked us to write a letter But I...
A world without humanity, Is one already lost, Everyone going for best, No matter what the cost. You would see the poor, Your would see their pain, You would see their lives, Flowing down the drain.
With you're world turned upside down Violently ripped from beneath you Do you stand and weep or fight on some more.
A body of purity. Yearning to explode. Running at half capacity. Desires to increase workload. A burning necessity. Deliverance from within. Searching for a prophecy. To deliver me from sin.
Crumpled pieces of paper containing broken thoughts, We tried our hardest but in the end, That is all we got.
I'm black, I'm white. Your wrong, I'm right. I'm zero, I'm one. You're one And done. I want, You make. You give, I take. There's me, There's you, Sharing This zoo. Binary Man Grab all I can.
Ash comes pouring from the sky, It's time to wish this world goodbye, It's broken, torn beyond repair, So much more than 'worse for wear'.
Why do stars fall at night. To mock adoring crowds, To make a wrong a right, Or to put silence to the loud. Why do rainbows have no end.
They strung me high up in the sky. Depressing, for I never could fly. If I cut my cords to try and learn. I'll fall to ground, to crash and burn. Ever since the fateful day.
The blinding light of wisdom, And the drowning night of age, Flicker, side by side, suspended high, Ascending, tall, the stage.
I was looking through some notes I made in the past and I found this, so I figured I'd share :-) All things that exist contain energy and there are beings like ripples in a pond, Regardless, all...
Die Richtung. du kannst dich umdrehen und wegsehen. du kannst aufstehen und weggehen. du kannst dich hinlegen und tot stellen. bis sie kommen und dich auszählen.
When far enough becomes. Too far. When a hero becomes. Society's whipping boy. Well watch out. Fate already called dibs. Pushed from the moment of birth. Never knowing just what. A true statement is.
Life ...
I cannot seem to move my limbs unless you say I can. I stand beside you, strung to strings, you are my puppet-man. If you say 'dance' my feet will move all of their own accord.
#love We rose up into the darkness Mind and body perfectly departed We sat our souls on the edge without a care Looking down at the world looking up in despair We threw our mortal fears over the...
#HalloweenParty #Ghost I sit with pale hands, Watch where the dust lands. My heart an empty void, No longer humanoid. Transparent and alone, This, what Death has shown.
It's crushing down my shoulders, It's thrashing on my door, It's jabbing every muscle, And it's making sure I'm sore.
What if I die during the night, How would I feel tomorrow, Would I be missed, Would I be mourned, Would people be filled with sorrow.
Is it fear that prevents me from shutting my eyes. If so the fear of what. Dreams and subconscious lies. Do I really dread what awaits in slumber so much. Or am I and myself falling out of touch.
In the still of night And the quiet of Day I long not for endurance But choose to fade away For now I conform To the silent whispers And their thoughts Can't hang on any longer I long for the...
Sweet sedation, Cold sensation, All creation, Dark damnation. Karma's preacher, Bloodied creature, Every feature, Optic breacher.
How can I raw like meadows. Disappear like wind. Dreams without solid ground. Noises sounding round and round. Bitten tongues bleeding. Racing and dropping. Aching level head.
Can I really explain the pain The resounding excruciating blame The guilt that's always undone The life changing things that have come Alone I stand in this damned plane I fail to speak my lips are...
