A Thought

Every dark hour has a reason
Understanding is our choice
Accepting is our challenge

Angel Fire


Have you ever believed you met an angel?
It was something just like that...
But it was a devil.

As a matter of fact, it was several devils.

This is that story...

Assaulted by promises of good time past,
Something no mortal can deny,
We followed the tail of an undetermined clan.
And yes, more than one easily got dragged.

Eaten, bitten and weakened,
The night drained away our sorrows.
Transformed into what the embrace of darkness wished,
We stalked the shadows, we danced the rhythms.
But most importantly, we drank our echoes.

Now we hold another truth.
One so different from the first.

Just like when you meet that damned angel,
Who turned out to be nothing but a sweet devil.

Walls of Time and Red Wounds

To break through this wall,
Every try, every breath,
Broken glare by glare.

Damned indifferent stare, looking down.

Doing that which breaks the most.
Doing that which breaks the host.

Think should tell the truth,
Far less painful from this side.
Shadowed mercy, never thanked for.

No.
No demon could deny.
It's sakki that flows,
The sense that runs.

Living cursed with your presence.
It will be my burden to bear.

No easy way to explain,
To undo the believes laid on.
The wait fell down chasing love.

Crashing violently...
Into my life...
Out of my life...

Now it's moving me along,
Fading away the shade of lost kingdoms.

What I want and what can happen
Will not be the same.
So acceptance is the only choice time will bring.

Time and time.
More time.

When will the clock wake up,
And realize that it goes too fast for us all.

Never too fast to escape your look, though.
Never too slow to make it go away quick enough.

Trapped between times of time.

When will the clock wake up...
When will this wall fall down...

Only time knows...

No Hope Inside the Jar (Dancing Bones)


Everyday again around the same old end.
Round and round walking, running, facing.

The outside seems so empty from within,
So square, so rigid.

But this jar is more than closed,
And no air seem come for most
Of those who venture share a glimpse.

So deny me, and this is where I end.

Inside the jar... inside the glass.

To see but not to touch or smell.
To hear but not to taste or care.

Inside the glass, inside the jar.

We go round the bottom.
Never ending.

Just like bottles.
Just like bones.
Just like bad old rum.

Rise Again

How many times must one fall to understand,
Life has a way of driving even patient men wild...

So again I rise...

Hanging on to what I have,
For it is the only thing left I can do...

Ghosts of Days Past


I know the landscape that I see
Growing up from one horizon to another...

They say love ain't fair,
'Cause I am feeling just fine.

So if the sun comes out this way
And you see it go the other,

Don't think this is not the truth.
I've been waiting, and won't stop.

Please believe me.

I just won't stop waiting.

RE: Letters to Elise


I don’t have tears to hold back

I knew it from long ago

That this would never be

The dream you wanted.

I won’t say more, I’ll just smile,

Because we obviously need more than this

But there’s nothing else we can really do.

The chances were blown away when given

And now we stand in this aftermath with no meaning.

Hell, girl, neither of us wanted this,

But in the end, it’s all we have now.

Nothing to say.

Nothing to do.

Nothing left to stand for.

Who's Calling?



Came inside today to find my solitude again

She is waiting day by day
Waiting for me to stay awake in this place
And fall asleep again

Why so sudden so dark
Calling me into the night

Give me just a little soul / To wrap again this dreams in hope
I can’t find the reason / To live this dream this day apart
Give me just one smile / And you’ll keep my heart tonight
Learn to breath away your sorrows / Tell me what went bad
Give me just some faith / And I’ll break away fear and pain
Waiting for the sunrise / My solitude awaits

Time in Letters

Short months soon become a short year.

And quite ironically,
That which you seek was found.
Not as expected, but regardless of fate,
It is what you wanted all along.

Now claim your debt, time.
Show your vastness to all.
You never end, don't you?

There is no way to stop you, to keep you right where I want.
Would you lie if I asked?
Or better yet, would I even dare ask?

Break me a second like June states midyear.
Give me a reason to repay tenfold your presents.
Coming stages will not be the same,
Without the time I knew...
Where time again I see through you and grasp nothing of your sense...

Fake me an hour like lunchtime forgotten.
Tell me why there is no joy when keeping your tracks.
Tomorrow will not be the same,
Without the time I knew...
Where time again I see through you and fail to see your purpose...

Take away a year like imprisonment steals life.
What determination you hold when trying to escape?
My cell will not be the same,
Without the time I knew...
Where time again I see through you and forget to take note...

Time, when did you pass by?

Uncertainties




If I could, I would tell you a secret,
If I could, I would show my shadows,
If I could, I would ask you of your demons,
If I could, I would do much...

I wonder what is it that binds me today?
For I know the truths that speed you.
And yet I am unaware of the truths that slow me.
Supervising an affair, never the goal.

Plans and roads to take, of which I asked...
None were replied.
I did not understand...
You wish to invest into a greater love...
Placed so much in the line without reason...

Asking too much in so little time...
Alas, you are brave one...
Yet, I need to see more... I need to feel more...

Now I know... After time has passed...
And yet you failed to notice...
Now you know... After all this time...
You closed the doors on your own...
