Oh rapture
so filled with mystery
hidden under the icy waves of the ocean
why must i be drawn towards you
like a positive charge to a negative magnet
your walls hidding the unethically controlled world
where the small is not constrained or censored by the masses
where a thinker is allowed to express his feelings
where the brightest and the best stride down the halls
their golden trails of change and satisfaction following them
but in your world so very far from our own
lies the parasite
like a leech on the foot of humanity
draining rapture ever so slowly
the parasite wanders the halls questioning the questions
destroying all that doesn't not belong to them
order is destroyed by it
the parasite drains rapture and leaves it in ruins
like a carcass on the side of the road
now your halls that were once filled with dreams of advancement
now exude the stench of a barbaric place in time
horrors hiding behind the once elegantly crafted corners
the mad doctors still striving for the perfect specimen
the artist looking for the perfect note on the piano
the one who would not die by anyone else's terms but his own
the scientist who is ashamed at what they created and now wants to repent
the hulking daddies that tremble the ground that they step on
looking for the children that they onced cared for
the remnants of who were once the inhabitants
twisted faces far from the once they use to know in the mirror
and the sister who could not be pulled back up to the surface
and vows to restore the once glorious city that you were
Rapture. You will rise again.

Darkness
The Darkness
people tend to fear this faceless manifestation
even though you live with it everyday
the fear of the inky shadowy unknown frightens those
who fear that they might find themselves within its tangles
when you close your eyes
when you shift your gaze
it is all around you
watching you like a animal ready to pounce
and it is yet in this darkness that we find bliss
in the darkness we can hide our deepest and most disturbing thoughts
tucked away where no one can see them
our lives end in this
we close our eyes one final time and take in the last rays of light
untill plunging into the total abysmal night that is

My Dearest
My Dearest,
As i write to you these words of love and sorrow, the pain in my heart swells remendously. For the love i feel for you is unfathomable. I still remember that cold winters night when we meet. The icy winds bitting at your face as you made your way down the street. From the cafe where i watched you, my eyes gazing as you walked in shaking off the snow from your raven colored hair. Undoing your jacket you lay it behind your chair and sit in the table across from my own. Removing your gloves revealing the porcelin white hands that layed them on the side of the table. Your glowing blue eyes encircling the place like a snake coiling around its prey. They come to rest on my own tired brown eyes and i knew that you would be mine. The days passed and we grew closer like the sun and the clouds. The seasons came and went but you seemed unfazed by them, always holding a smile on your face. Then there came a day when your eyes grew dim and cold. Your warm smile replaced by a weak straight line without emotion. You laid on our bed as i sat by you reminicing about the days long ago and as you took your final breath you whispered to me "i will always love you".

Intervention
People say you should play the cards you're dealt. What if those cards only give you a losing hand? Thats what happened to me. I was given the cards by the gods and I rejected to play their twisted game. It all happened a few months ago when i was oblivious to the world around me....
There i sat in my cubicle surrounded by people who were nothing but drones. Slaves to their own desires. Slaves to pieces of green paper that were covered in the blood of the innocent. There i sat at my table that was littered with papers containing numbers and letters like some acient hieroglyphics waiting to be deciphered. I sat there in my gray buttoned shirt and black pants, the eerie white glow of a computer screen illuminating my face as i stared vacantly at it.

Sigh~
Why do thoughts of you flood my mind like a dam bursting
Your face flashing in between every blink of my eyes
The smile you left in my heart ripping into it like knife
Your memory flooding me to the point of bursting
The only hint of your influece are the tears running down my face
You left my side when i needed you mostleft me abbandoned and alone
Left the word jammed in my throat about how much you meant to me
You left me broken when you once completed me
Your face flashing in between every blink of my eyes
The smile you left in my heart ripping into it like knife
Your memory flooding me to the point of bursting
The only hint of your influece are the tears running down my face
You left my side when i needed you mostleft me abbandoned and alone
Left the word jammed in my throat about how much you meant to me
You left me broken when you once completed me
Faceless
That faceless person your looking at
walking down the street
Could have been your best friend at a point in time
As feelings change
People never do.
