"falling down again"

i was lying on the floor when you found me
you took my hand, and we were together one
to feel your warm touch, all over my being
i took my chance and followed you in

and for every move i make
and for every word i tell
and for every pain i felt

all my world seems to end

i just can't help, falling down again

i keep telling to myself; i can see,
i must not depend on you to live
but the more you let me be
the more frail, i always turn out to be
 
Silence

The forest's trees coil and weep.
The sorrow of an ashen sky
Chokes the sun eternally.

Beneath the rain, I can hardly see.
The tears of angels torn from heaven
Adorn the quiet, trellised vines.

Exalted on the throne of silence,
I watch as the leaves turn and fade.
They sink to the marbled ground beneath.

Closing its eyes, the earth around me
Is drowned by the whispering downpour.
The trees reach higher into the heavens...

I have stifled all memory
Of laughter, guilt, and awe.
Still no answer to my call...
 
Halo Of Tears

It was you I saw in the narrow view

Your voice penetrating through

The long dismal shadow of graying trees

I looked between your eyes

Saw the profundity in your clockwise gaze

And that was when I knew

I would never pass into your embrace again.



She crucified her grace and I bear that cross

Through the points of your premature failures

I wrap myself in the scarlet color of the void

Surround myself with the saturnine flames

I know she has not left me untouched

The emerald aura disperses around me

Still I am bewitched by a flickering rage

That rests upon my personal faultlines.



She knows the origin of my fear

The blindness that obscures the reasons

We shared a place in that ritual

Whispering false benedictions

Directing the amorous spectacle

Together we lifted the facade

And found no shreds of mercy

Only a halo of tears lying in wait.
