1. The End of The Last Thousand Years
Without worth and without meaning has what I have felt.
Nothing. To. No one.
I am a design flaw to the natural order of life. I am the dirt. I am the cancer walking through your soul. This war
has been lost.
I will not give in though.
NOT ON MY SOUL.
I will not be broken down into dust. Into the coward whose life fell short.
Overcoming the adversity.
I am not a disease. I am not a tumor and I will not carry one any longer.
I am not your sympathy.
My strength is born. My heart alive. The air still blowing and my struggle’s far from over. But i will sacrifice.
For the greater good.
For the sun that will rise tomorrow.
For I will wake tomorrow.
For tomorrow will come.
2. Tonight We Don't Come Back
I am slowly realizing that I am no one. I feel as if my significance in others lives is all but gone (as if it was there.)
I always walked the path I felt with my heart. I am nothing. I am a hypocrite. I am a liar. The pressures of living
and the pressures of being alive deteriorate (within myself i am laughing.) I move in moments. Moments.
Greater
than
you
or
I.
Time has shown to heal most everything. But being plagued by the shells of old ghosts has made me tired. I grow
tired of the prodding feeling of burying the insides of disease. My faith stands. Brittle and cold. The feeling of
hearing my last breath exit my lungs and the cries come from all who care so dearly. I am sorry. My time is
not now but i have stolen the clock. I have no desire to wind it again. I pass through you like a ghost with no
beginning or with no ending. I have seen the despair. I am despair.
3. Farewell To Sanctity
i return to soil.
accept what has been given to me.
many suns and moons have given me time.
i am at one with the light. i will stand among the earths spirits.
satellites carry me through air waves. my energy continuing to roam through
cables and through mind.
i am at one with the light.
i will burn the antennas and be free.
4. The Reconciliation of Ascension
healing stitches when i just want to lay in my bed. and be comforted by the delicate touch of insomnia.
conjoined with this cancer.
we are one.
i beg the son to ease this. i bear the scars of this. but i will suffer this. to be closer to you.
this test.
artificial lights shine on me. before i breathe anesthesia.
in my room, the lady in the radiator sings me songs
i ask her, "if you sing to me, will you become human?"
answers escape through your fingertips. as you shut the door behind you.
now we can live.
5. The Great Hurt
6. Avoid The Light
This is the testimony exhumed from my being. She is the world. Feeling the soles of my feet lift in your presence
and my heart skipping not one but two beats when we kissed. My façade crumbles endearing pieces into an ocean
of lost emotion. Finding again what has brought me my inspiration. I call out, “Tonight we’ll touch the stars.” She
replied somewhat muffled by the waves, “My love, I long to hold your hands. To feel your arms around my soul.”
Thus we began.
Stood out amongst the crashing of water, a divine force reaches and grabs my arms. “This is what we have waited
our lives for.” Somewhat shaken by it all, her smile instantly heals the barrage of damage brought forth on me.
I am hers. I am her shield.
She is his saving grace. The blood that pumps through his heart.
Never has destiny revealed herself to me like it did that day.
To every piece, there is its match. To every sun there is its moon. To every soul, an angel.
You save my life.
