Time
Life tears me like a cut out man.
I am controlled by my desires and my failings.
The past is my future now as lessons learned are ignored.
In this way I am yours I am your humble servant to do with as you will.
I can never have my own life...You will always be in control.
Pain
A reaction, a feeling, a loss of perspective, a gaining of yourself, can we be without it ever or are we forever to be tormented?
Understanding
Who does?
Love
I encounter you but have never known you,
I see you but have never felt you,
I long for you but am fearful of what you may bring.
Life
If I could change my past would I?
If my future is ordained are any actions mine?
The present can not be...it is unsustainable and as such,
can anything be said to exist?
Love = Hatred
Implausable, improbable, irrational, emotional, feelings.
To cry
To cry,
to die,
a thousand deaths,
a thousand tears,
release of fears,
release of tensions,
release of the reality that haunts,
release of the past that gaunts,
the past that jumps you,
the past that takes you,
the past that controls you,
the past that abuses you,
the past that is amused by your every efforts to change...
A day
A day is a dream
a dream is a day
one will pass
the other lives away
life is forgotten
in that which fades
dreams break on sunlight
the feelings to fade
illusions are memories
forgotten by all
a future impossible
The Dark
It holds my tears
creates my fears
in the dark
in the dark
it tears my soul
makes me whole
in the dark
in the dark
i find myself at its will
an all to easily taken bitter pill
life can hide from me no more
its remnants sinking through the floor
in my tomb it shall greet me
in the womb it reached me
in the dark
in the dark
in the dark my face is lost
in the dark my body becomes
in the dark
in the dark
past and present merge
sulphurous fires stench and scorch
pain and suffering without the touch
reach me
teach me
find me
hide me
keep me safe
keep me whole
keep me from that bitter goal
kill me
split me
hit me
kick me
bite me
knife me
stab me
hit me
jab me
let me be
let me see
nothingness
for in the dark
i am one
with everything
ive become
with what i was
what i could be
its all too plain to see
but in the dark i am safe
none need see this face
so in it i hide
in it i fear
in it i am protected from the searing
flesh muscle bone and bile
mucus fresh intestines vile
that future holds should past be undone
and examined for me as everyone
is due and will find in apocalyptic time
when our goddess our god our maker our makers
take out that ticker taper
examine with their eyes
all the deceit and the lies
and so it shall be and come to pass
beware my friends beware your past
learn from it
yearn for parts of it
but never let what is done... become...
Patrick.
