Truth

It's true the observation
To the right holds the tears
To the left holds the happiness
Showing testament to it
Shows the truth in its statement
Wallowing in self-consolation

Visions - Bring me the horizon

I didn't realise the true poetry of this song until now. It's amazing.

________________

This is a call to arms, so grab your guns and get your horses.
Only the dead have seen the end of this fight.
This is a call to arms, so all you fallen soldiers sing with me: death or glory.

So march with me if you believe there's any hope for us.
I've been hiding in these trenches for far too long.
All is fair in love and war, so they tell me.
All is fair in love and war, so they say.

Come on, come on, there has to be a better way.
Get up, get up, let's leave this mess.
I know a place that we can get away from all of this.
Come on come on, get up get up.

I've been dreaming of us leaving everything and everyone we've ever known.
I've been thinking all these visions must be a sign, so hold on and don't let go.
No, we can't leave till you tell me everything.
So come clean, don't talk in tongues. Talk in tongues.
It's time to bring out your dead.
And the skeletons that you've been hiding.
Tell me everything I need to know.
Bring out your dead. [2x]

So march with me if you believe there's any hope for us.
I've been hiding in these trenches for far too long.
All is fair in love and war, so they tell me.
All is fair in love and war, so they say.

Come on come on, get up get up.
I know a place that we can get away from all of this.
Yeah.

[2x]
I couldn't see a thing till I shut my eyes.
I never knew a thing till I lost my mind.
I would sell my soul to know it all, but I held the keys all this time.

[2x]
I've been dreaming of us leaving everything and everyone we've ever known.
I've been thinking all these visions must be a sign, so hold on and don't let go.

Bring out your dead. [3x]

Unending continuation #3

He stared outside into the beautiful moonlight
With no hint of artificiality in sight
Only the bliss of the atmosphere lingered in his mind
His eyes were brightly awake, finding the silence inside

We go back in time, triggers galore
We go back in time, a reminder of
We go back in time, he starts to remember
We go back in time, he wants to forget this forever

Untitled

A surge, a rush
One that previously was associated
With guilt, with regret, with pain
To bring myself, to once again
Enter that world, has confused me

Thinking once again
Placing my insecurities aside
Once again
To face it
And see the light at the end

Unending continuation #2

An exchange of knowledge happened
Which never happened before
A 180 turn around from the very beginning
Then another which leaves myself distraught

Actions unspoken, words meaningless
Enduring bouts of masochism
Before the bracing of impact,
As i'm free falling, I feel as if i'm living

Self-Conclusion - The Spill Canvas

Love this song.

___________________

Fade in, start the scene
Enter beautiful girl
But things are not what they seem
As we stand at the edge of the world

"Excuse me, sir,
But I have plans to die tonight
Oh, and you are directly in my way
And I bet you're gonna say it's not right"
My reply:
"Excuse me, miss
But do you have the slightest clue
Of exactly what you just said to me
And exactly who you're talking to?"

She said, "I don't care, you don't even know me"
I said, "I know but I'd like to change that soon, hopefully"
Yeah, we all flirt with the tiniest notion
Of self conclusion in one simplified motion
You see the trick is that you're never supposed to act on it
No matter how unbearable this misery gets

"You make it sound so easy to be alive
But tell me, how am I supposed to seize this day
When everything inside me has died?"
My reply:
"Trust me, girl
I know your legs are pleading to leap
But I offer you this easy choice-
Instead of dying, living with me"

She said, "Are you crazy? You don't even know me. "
I said, "I know, but I'd like to change that soon hopefully"
Yeah, we all flirt with the tiniest notion
Of self conclusion in one simplified motion
You see the trick is that you're never supposed to act on it
No matter how unbearable this misery gets

I would be lying if I said that things would never get rough
And all this cliche motivation, it could never be enough
I could stand here all night trying to convince you
But what good would that do?
My offer stands, and you must choose

"All right, you win, but I only give you one night
To prove yourself to be better than my attempt at flight
I swear to god if you hurt me I will leap
I will toss myself from these very cliffs
And you'll never see it coming"
"Settle, precious, I know what you're going through
Just ten minutes before you got here I was gonna jump too"

Yeah we all flirt with the tiniest notion
Of self conclusion in one simplified motion
You see the trick is that you're never supposed act on it
No matter how unbearable this misery gets

Unending continuation #1

From the day dot, a call was made
Negative four, under the starry night
Glanced up at the gigantic structures
Thoughts corroding my head while I close my eyes

Fast forward, a call was made
Positive unknown, under the starry night
Glanced at the exquisite scenery
Thoughts burning my head while parts of me die

Tuesday, December 21, 2010

Day

Exquisite places, lovely atmospheres
Dreaming one day, just one day

Surprises, improvisation
Dreaming one day, just one day

Saturday, December 18, 2010

Cushion

Clasping the cushion
Falling into a shallow sleep
Trapped somewhere between awake and sleep
Insomnia while the subconscious is still awake

Schism

Immolation, masochism
Secretly we're all one
Self infliction, ensuing schism
One day shall be enough

S

The best words are excreted from my mouth
In a manner like this, in a state like this
Triumphing all over everything
Wallowing in non existent bliss

"One more nail in the coffin
One more foot in the grave
One last time i'm on my knees
As I try to walk away"

Sometimes trekking through the cold
Can never be consoled by a warm cup of tea
Developing immense hypothermia
While feeling a burning sensation inside me

Watching it all melt and decay
From the inside and the out
Telling me to stop walking
While the words cannot escape my mouth

The freezing moon diminishes my capacity to think
While the blistering heat erases any logical thought
The humidity leaving my body content
Confused always, my mind raught

"We all have our horrors and our demons to fight
But how can I win, when I'm paralyzed?
They crawl up on my bed, wrap their fingers 'round my throat
Is this what I get for the choices that I made?"

Insert the camera inside the cranium
Monitor the impulses, ensuing an aneurysm
It's haunting, entirely haunting
Petruding my soul with guilt

I'm screaming from the inside
Quiet outside
My voice yells the loudness of a thousand nails on a blackboard
Nevermind

Self conclusion, as there always needs to be an end
Mending every little cut and bruise, as I tend
To move forward and forward, while leaving no
real conclusion, as the poem keeps on flowing
and flowing, and flowing, and flowing
until the very end

ATAR

To define myself via a number
is horse excrement
Yet i'm ecstatic
Couldn't be happier

Tuesday, December 14, 2010

Thought Police

Thought police entering my brain
Siezing my thoughts, leaving me in a prison
So much guilt, So much guilt.

Light

Light is ever beaming through
To be delayed later and later
Prolonging the vibrant Sun
Infecting all being with its brightness

It feels infectious
Light ever gleaming from the sky

As it turns into night, it's still beaming
It's still gleaming
It's still bright
So very bright

Untitled

To capture the sheer intensity
Of the words spewing from my convulsing mouth
Would be impossible due to the incessant beating
Of an object called the heart

"Get the fuck up, keep going"
Is all it said.
"This time, this fucking time"
Is what was previously said
"Fuck it"
Is what it will say in the future

As the words tremble from my lips
The feelings are mumbled
As the teeth are grinding onto one another
Ever knowing, ever seeing

Thursday, December 9, 2010

Untitled

This talk of it reeks of horrible memories
The time spent, the amount of hours
They go on and on, ever afraid to fall back
Because a repeat may happen

How can I resist the colourful environment
The lush landscape, the vibrant characters
Yet a shadow of despair casts itself over it all
Inducing a bout of nostalgia and regret

This Bitter Pill

I've been completely and utterly addicted to this song for the past day. I don't know. It speaks volumes.

This Bitter Pill - Dashboard Confessional
______________

Walking away
It's not the same as running
Is it to you now that you've run in this ground
And you say take this
This medicine is just what you deserve
Swallow, choke, and die

And this bitter pill is leaving you
With such an angry mouth
One that's void of all discretion
Such an awful tearing sound
With it's measure only equal by the power of my stare
Glaring over you and over you this feeling of despair
Is never wearing out

It's wearing off
And it's leaving you with such a heavy heart
And a head to match
The bottle is waiting
The cap is twisted begging to be used
And so are you.

And this bitter pill is leaving you
With such an angry mouth
One that's void of all discretion
Such an awful tearing sound
With it's measure only equal by the power of my stare
Glaring over you and over you this feeling of despair
Is never wearing out

Melancholy

Another old one. Sorry, i'm digging up gems all tonight.

__________

Drip by drip
The water falls from the tap
Slowly slowly
One by one

The lamp shade shakes
Rustling of the wind
Oblivious to anything around it

Rain pours from the skies
Onto my cold head
The sky is clouded
Forever grey

The street lay dead
As if nobody inhabits it
Silence roams now

Fluorescent lights
Reflect off the puddles
Portraying a picture
Distorted by rain

The cold night
Where silence roams
Street light flows
Rain Drops
Melancholy lives

Me Vs Me

Wrote this a long time ago, I was reading my collection of poems over the past few years and I struck this gem, again, not explaining, but it's a nice reminder.

___________

It's been a while
Still you're striking me subconsciously
I thought you were gone
Yet the thoughts poison my brain

Left me staring at an empty box
Just knowing i'll be pushed down to that low level again
That level where i'm not returning
That level where I turn myself to nothing.

Can't you just leave me be?
Whenever I turn a corner a thought is there
Just dangling in front of my face
You are a demon.

You found me
You took bits of me
You tore them apart
I hate you.

The day I see you
That lucky day
Even you know
That something bad will happen.

You linger in my head
You linger on this screen
You linger within this text
You linger wherever I go.

I know you're just smiling
An insult to everything
I know you're happy
While i'm not.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A polar opposite occurs
I lay here in awe
Letting the warmth of my sheets
Drown me in happyness

I'm left smiling here
I'm left happy
I'm left wallowing in joy
I'm left being me

Every thought
Fills my heart with warmth
Even when my days
Are pitch black

The days that i'm left
Could be the darkest of them all
I'm left
Laying in cynicism

I've dug a hole
Inside my mind
I crawl up
and wither inside

You linger in my thoughts
You linger in my heart
You linger in my darkest hours
You linger in me

You make me smile
You make me laugh
But...
It turns out the same way.

Over
And
Over
Again.

This

This inability to understand
This incapacity to do a thing
This doubtfulness incessant in my head
Just like before
Just like before

Irony

Searching down the road
Making our way through the unbearable heat
It's a reminder of before, fighting the insecurities
Lies, a hint of questioning takes over the brain
Everything turns out fine, we hope. Feel no guilt please.
^

:)

Hope

Hope is all we bargain on
All we place our trust into
Despite explaining logically the thing around us
We begin to hope

Plead is what we do
When our hopes diminish
As they dwindle down
Hoping for more hope

Sunday, December 5, 2010

Shock

Shock

My head lay on the pillow
As the music flowed through my ears
Sleeping still absorbing the impact

Wake to feel a sense of content
With everything
Remembering to breathe in
and breathe out

Saturday, December 4, 2010

Scull

Scull scull scull
Calm calm calm
Ignore the horrid taste
Bask in the ambience
bask in the atmosphere
Bask in the mood
Bask in the anger
Bask in the frustration
Calm calm calm
Scull scull scull

Grinning

The soothing music entering my ears
Grinning at this beautiful mess created
The red wine slowly enflames the throat
Giving a smooth entering into the body
Eyes about to give in
Still grinning
Hoping for tomorrow
Still grinning

Break

Sipping the green liquid
Freezing as it burns
Inconsistencies blurted
Bouts of bullshit heard
Insomnia kicking in
It's difficult to sleep
Yet it's difficult to wake
Trapped in a paradox
All I need is a break

Music = poetry

Music is poetry right?

Circle

Three circles
To get into the third one
Takes a lot of effort
Nobody is there.
Nobody.

Sense

Dozing off into the dreamland
While my eyes are still awake

"So you have to give until you have nothing left?"

A burning sensation fills the retina
As I stare into the abyss wondering

"The longer the night goes on, the more I think about stuff in general"

Such an act, pondering myself
Questioning of character, of personality

Unable to understand
Makes absolutely no sense

...
...

Helpless

Gasping and gasping
The last breath of fresh air
Waiting to enter my lungs
As my pupils dilate
My hands shake
My body frozen
Quivering at the sight
Numbness overcomes
Reaching out, yet
I can't

Sunday, November 21, 2010

Blank #2

Hard to fill this space
For there's nothing to fill it with
Everything is left unsaid
Everything makes no sense
Slipping back
Just slipping
Waiting
Wondering
Worrying
Let's leave this blank

Crypt

Let's keep this as a crypt
Where nobody knows the key
To truly understand
You would have to be me

Thursday, November 18, 2010

Lost

Lost all sense of day
Lost all sense of night
Reveling in ambiguity
My eyes distort reality

Completely deluded
It never clears up
Waiting for clarity
That may never come

...

Hold back
Keep calm
Do not ponder

Keep listening
Repress
Keep it in

Bounds of separation
Hold on
Just for today

Shadow

Shadow of two
One disappears
Path is clear
An obstacle to plough through

Grand Theft Autumn - Fall Out Boy

Moar lyrics.

__________________________________________

Where is your boy tonight? I hope he is a gentlemen.
Maybe he won't find out what I know:
You were the last good thing about this part of town.

When I wake up, I'm willing to take my chances on the hope I forget
that you hate him more than you notice I wrote this for you. (For you, so)

You need him. I could be him...
I could be an accident but I'm still trying.
That's more than I can say for him.

Where is your boy tonight? I hope he is a gentleman.
Maybe he won't find out what I know:
you were the last good thing about this part of town.

Someday I'll appreciate in value, get off my ass and call you...
but in the meantime I'll sport my
brand new fashion of waking up with pants on at four in the afternoon.

You need him. I could be him...
I Could be an accident but I'm still trying.
And That's more than I can say for him.

1-2-3-4!
Where is your boy tonight? I hope he is a gentlemen.
Maybe he won't find out what I know:
You were the last good thing about this part of town.

won't find out (he won't find out)
won't find out (he won't find out)

Where is your boy tonight? I hope he is a gentleman.
Maybe he won't find out what I know:
you were the last good thing about this part of town.

Round and Round #2

Again we enter the vicious cycle
Ever repeating itself
Until lesson learned
"Round and round in circles we go
Utter failure to see the expectations, the truth in front"
Waiting again. Now crawl, crawl back
"Complete realisation occurs, trying not to imply incessant narcisissm"
Round and round in circles we go...

Take

Take a beating
Take a punching
It'll get used to it
By now it should

Monday, November 15, 2010

''

It's cloudy and I'm drenched in grey
'Cannot be your enemy'
Despite the cold weather
The flames engulf the insides
A perfect juxtaposition

'Cannot be your memory'
Drowning in thought
Existential thought
Cynical thought

'This may never start'
Could the shadow of two embrace me
Let the ghosts be driven away
Wallowing in regret and insecurity

Friday, November 12, 2010

Frustration

Frustration building
Implosion occurring
Bullet through the brain
Excretion of the innards
Walking with a heavy heart
Embracing the cynicism
Shaking hands with pessimism
Consoling in negativity

Thursday, November 11, 2010

Chance

Always the uncertainty
Always the chance
It's never set in stone
Regretful decisions, always taken back

Memory by Sugarcult

I need to post more lyrics on this blog that I appreciate.

________________

This may never start
We could fall apart
And I'd be your memory
Lost your sense of fear
Feelings insincere
Cannot be your memory

So get back, back, back to where we lasted
Just like I imagine
I could never feel this way
So get back, back, back to the disaster
My heart's beating faster
Holding on to feel the same

This may never start
I'll tear us apart
Cannot be your enemy
Losing half a year
Waiting for you here
I'd be your anything

So get back, back, back to where we lasted
Just like I imagine
I could never feel this way
So get back, back, back to the disaster
My heart's beating faster
Holding on to feel the same

This may never start
Tearing out my heart
I'd be your memory
Lost your sense of fear
Feelings disappeared
Cannot be your memory

So get back, back, back to where we lasted
Just like I imagine
I could never feel this way
So get back, back, back to the disaster
My heart's beating faster
Holding on to feel the same

This may never start
We could fall apart
And I'd be your memory
Lost your sense of fear
Feelings insincere
Cannot be your memory
Cannot be your memory

Sunday, November 7, 2010

I get it.

I get it
I understand

I really get it

If that's what is risked
Because of all of that
Damn you're all fucking shallow
Keyboard warriors

Makes me angry
Extremely angry.

Friday, November 5, 2010

Calm

Calm the fuck down
We're young and we're stupid
No time for that
We have our lives to get through it

Minute details, enthrall me dearly
Obviously your vision is blurred
You cannot see clearly

My brain aches
My eyes burn
Ears popping
Here I toss and turn

Tuesday, November 2, 2010

End

The feeling in the back of my neck inflicts pain when I swallow
The eyes blazed red gasping for sleep reflects my sorrow

My head throbs again and again, waiting for it to end
I sniff and sniff til I try to relax and lay on my bed

Two days til freedom, and i'm feeling like this
Once it's over, my life will be pure bliss

Friday, October 29, 2010

Two

Jealousy
Fear
The two intertwine
Or are they separate from each other

Wednesday, October 27, 2010

Type

Placing my energy
Wanting to write
My head turns blank
Filled with shades of white

The words escape my lips
The words escape the tips
Of my fingers as I implant
My thoughts into words

I can't think
I'm blank

Saturday, October 23, 2010

Mental

Build a wall
Mentally prepare
Tackle the fear
For the unknown is there

Roulette

Let's play russian roulette
As we step to the edge
Close our eyes, take a step
Allow chance to determine
Whether there's rocks at the bottom
Or cushions
Or if there's a ledge to grab onto
At the end

Friday, October 22, 2010

Sleep

Thoughts convolute my head
As it cowers into a ball
Numb while it lives inside
Paralysing my brain

One #2

For platonically, I have fallen
The heart beating, not again

One

One had a hunch, a mere hunch
Extended through the annals of time
No, what felt like the annals of time

The visualisation becomes reality
The images presented before became true
The never ending thoughts which have corrupted ones mind
The everlasting ideas have succumb to truth

It aches and aches
Yet, one always worried
One always cared
One always seemed to be the only one who did

As one gazed upon the immense consumerism
The pavement walking on them
The mechanical object placed within ones chest
Failed.

The mechanical object shed bouts of oil
It broke
It shattered
As the gears stopped working

Helpless one stood
Helpless one felt
Helpless one put on the game face
Helpless one listened

Breathless for a moment
One walked as the pavements moved one
The road moved one
Every substance underneath ones feet moved for one

One needs to help
One needs to embrace
One needs
One fucking needs

Numb it, for other one can't comprehend
Shattered, other one cannot fathom the extent
Here's one's mechanical object
Fix it

Fix it for one
Fix it for yourself

Oh how one weeps
One weeps and weeps

Bringing one's self
Destabilised
Devalued
De-(insert adjective here)

One cares
One loves
One needs, to be okay
One wants to spare the pain

One's pain
Other's pain

Down the annals of time
One waits
Hand extended
Waiting for it to be taken
For one cannot wait
One on the verge
Of detracting

...

Queue

For this is a forewarning
Almost a foreshadowing
A multitude of words
An excess, and exacerbation
Let us wait in anticipation

A reminder #6

Dammit.
Dammit dammit dammit.

As he stares upon himself realising what he has done
Wallowing in regret and in words lost
As it is a repeat, a reminder, a trigger

Saturday, October 16, 2010

A reminder #5

The more thoughts enter my cranium
The more memories that come to my head
Stuck in a paradox, in a purgatory
Not knowing where to stand
Not knowing where to go

A reminder #4

A stroke through the small orange box
The visual is still there aching at me
Contemplation of another move
Contemplation of permanent erasing

A reminder #3

I moved it back
Couldn't do it
Two perfect images placed side by side.
There's a significant difference though.

A reminder #2

Moved.
I've moved.
I've moved the reminder.
I've moved the trigger.
I've moved it all.

I'd rather it stay like before
I'd rather it that way
I'd rather it not trigger a thing
I'd rather it not be a reminder

Onwards

Take on insecurities
Take on negativity
Take on anxiousness
Take on randomness

Digging a hole inside the mind
Digging a hole in the dirt
Digging a hole
Only to push yourself deeper

Friday, October 15, 2010

Exam

Complete decimation
Destruction of two
Annihilation of today
Only more to come through

Wednesday, October 13, 2010

A reminder

Questions questions
Intoxicating the brain like the rum does
Reminder, more reminders.
It's a possible reason as to the question of why.
'i am the ocean, I am the sea, there is a world inside of me'
Detachment permanent
"maybe one day I'll disappear again"
Repeating constantly
"disappear"
"again"

Vegas Skies - The Cab

Sorry for posting these. Quite corny, but oh well.

_______________________

It's twelve o' clock and I need your attention
It's like the alcohol
Making my head spin
Your scent is the rum
The room is a bottle
Keeping me hopeless until I wake tomorrow
If tonight ever makes a difference
The way that I feel
The way that I'll remember it
I'll take this down until the glass remains
Swallow the words that I was meant to say

It's a long drive back to Vegas skies
So why don't I make one more wrong turn tonight

So say goodnight
Our first goodbye
I've only got forever and forever is fine
Just take your time
We'll stop the clock together and know that the timing was right

All of these guards they stand tall and defensive
Putting up walls around what was once innocent
It won't let me in, but I'm stronger than that
Because you stole my eyes and I've never looked back
Girl, last night I forgot to mention
The way that I feel, the way that I'll remember this
When we're this young
We have nothing to lose
We just the clock to beat and a hand to choose

It's a long drive back to Vegas skies
So why don't I make one more wrong turn tonight

So say goodnight
Our first goodbye
I've only got forever and forever is fine
Just take your time
We'll stop the clock together and know that the timing was right

It's a long way down
Just fall into place and you'll fall into me
We'll make it out
You'll see

So say goodnight
Our first goodbye
I've only got forever and forever is fine
Just take your time
We'll stop the clock together

So say goodnight
Our first goodbye
I've only got forever and forever is fine
Just take your time
We'll stop the clock together and know that the timing was right

Don't Go - Bring me the horizon

There's just a snippet of this song that I find very interesting.
_____________________________________

If I let you in, you'd just want out
If I tell you the truth, you'd vie for a lie
If I spilt my guts, it would make a mess we can't clean up
If you follow me, you will only get lost
If you try to get closer, we'll only lose touch
Yes you already know too much, and you're not going anywhere

War

This is war
Rip off my limb
Destroy my body
Kill everything

Mutilate the innards
Quarter them
Feed them to the dogs

Feel the inherent sarcasm
As a metaphor for a value

Ever confused

Saturday, October 9, 2010

Burn

Burn burn in the fire
Burn burn through my mind
Burn burn through my body
Burn burn through my soul

Scorch everything
Melt it to the point of oblivion
Feel the flames encompass yourself

Brilliance

The brilliant satisfaction
Rings upon my ears
Once again
Truth reigns

Mind

As intriguing as it is
A plethora of thoughts
Tend to embed themselves into my head
Such an abundance my cranium cannot handle

My mind aches
As it is working overtime
Constantly the gears are grinding
The chemicals colliding
Incessantly hurting

A combination
Convolutes
Controls
Collaborates
All in my mind

Spring

It's spring
Yet there's clouds
Still rain
Still grey

From one pole to the end
It seems there's no hope in sight

The difference here is only understanding

Reverse

Staleness
It's different
Very different

It's a make-up
In place for a lack of it

Doubt it

Unable to label
Unable to describe

Wrecking the fundamentals
Wrecking the optimism
Wrecking possible human things deemed 'norm'

Shuffle

Drowsy eyed I sat at the table
Doom and gloom seen just past the glass
For it's a dull day
Such a dull day

Shuffle shuffle shuffle
Click.

This table, the symbol of community
Symbol of communal family
Body stopped for a moment
Hearing the words pump into my ear drum

Sitting in shock
Bringing back a memory

Filled with empty promises
Filled with negativity

I needed cessation

Shuffle shuffle shuffle
Click.

View

It is only the window that protrudes my view
It is the blinds that limit my view
It is the window panes that obstruct my view
It is the netting that minimalises my view

Finding it difficult to see the full picture

There are some things

There are some things
You cannot formulate into words
There are some things
That aren't meant to be heard
There are some things
That shed light upon an otherwise black World
There are some things
That reinforce the darkness murdering the light

There are some things
I cannot explain
There are some things
With the wealth of knowledge to gain
There are some things
That cause immense pain
There are some things
Burning into the heart through the pouring rain

There are some things
That eat at your soul
There are some things
That make your inner self whole
There are some things
Which reach through your innards and digs a hole
There are some things
Inside you, which you will never let go

Winner.

Less pessimism
More optimism

Declining in doubt
Heightening in dependance

It is a mere win
For our 'kind'

Perfect

Radiant Sun gleams all over
The wind brings a perfect breeze
For what is seemed as
A perfect day

Repeat

It's a repeat of before
For if this truth is told
I fear for thee
Just fear due to this repeat
The ending was not joyous, only painful.

Euphoria

It's like i've taken a euphoric substance
Streaming through my blood in glee
The pupils dilate while my heart pumps and pumps
The four muscles in my face start to move
Close my eyes and envision, just envision
The intense overwhelming feeling in me

Friday, September 24, 2010

My

My vocal chords would like
To strum out the words
'Lost cause'

My heart is steady and beating
Screaming to try, shouting the words
'No'

My brain is calm and collected
Sitting in its shell, merely whispering
'Don't even bother'

My eyes are red and tired
Sitting in the eyelid, saying
'See'

My ears are sensitive and active
Extending out of my head, saying
'Let. Just let'

My mouth is smiling
Truthfully
'It's their life'

Untitled

I do not wish impending doom
Upon any person living on Earth
Yet I make an exception,
Just for one

I will take this knife
Carve a phallus on your back
Subsequently stab it
Slit your throat

I will feel no remorse
I will feel no sympathy, nor empathy
Only Joy
Only Happiness

I hope you die very soon

Thursday, September 23, 2010

I'm tired.

Filling this box with my thoughts
Utterly meaningless
I can never release these things
It's gone

End of a chapter
Just another chapter
Somewhat a forgetful one
Yet somewhat a great one

The things dragged on into the next will stay
Forever stay

Regale

Regale me, oh damn regale me
Of the triumphant occasion
Regale me, reinforcing my personal theory
Oblivious to everything

Regale me, further my cynicism
Fuel my hatred for the pupil body
I'm going to remember these memorious things
Realise that the concept of 'family' is cow manure and does not apply

Inhalation

Wrote this ages ago

Crawl through my skin
The spiders never stop

My eyes vent with rage
Dilating immensely

Rush through my veins
I am invincible

It drives me insane
Just one more hit

I see the light
"Time of death, 3:30am"

=)

There's some morbid hope
Can't fathom as to why
Can't question either
Lost in complete confusion
Never knowing
Ever present

Do not hestitate
Overwhelmed with joy
Feeling euphoric
Just lingering
Only lingering

Leave

It's interesting
Such an observation
Forever entwined in questions

Delivering delivering

We all have come to an end of it all
While repressing the supposed good times
The fact that through the utter worst
Barely anybody was there

I stood at the top of the building of life
Gazed into the distance
Realising a change

I changed
Not actually
But to them I did

I'm never myself
Never around them anyway
Only a few

Interrupt the structure
We all crumble and fall
Unless we build a second structure
To replace the aforementioned

Nostalgia setting in
But it's just nostalgia
Utter nostalgia

Held together by jokes
Held together by your substance
While lacking real substance
Remove school from this equation
There is nothing

Let me leave already
There are people better worth my time

Us

So,

One with problems stemming from the bare roots
Another with the same
One that trekked through the darkest of days
Two that bare fruit, yet never let anybody in
One who questions the World
Another that tries to reconnect with one of their roots

We all ask why.
Confiding
Determined for answers

Yet there's always light.
Always light.

B5

Playing the B5
Subverting any popular music
Heaviness, deepness
Delving into a World full of darkness
Full of the devils chords
Full of the dimished
The dark side.

Start

Grinning. Just grinning.
It's a start that I needed to have
It's a start that I hope continues for a long time
It's just a good start

Untitled

There's a certain extent to which what I say can affect someone
There's a limit to everything
But, let us not wallow in regret
Let us not writhe in self-pity
Make it, but we're standing behind
Just ready to catch

Round and round

Round and round in circles we go
Utter failure to see the expectations, the truth in front
Caressing, is all that is ever felt throughout this
While giving a warm embrace and a cushion to fall onto
Selective selective damn being selective, hearing the inane excuse
The typical excuse, sugarcoat, instead of placing it bluntly down my ear canals
I'm tired, so damn tired, giving, giving, giving, giving, receiving only intrinsically
My head was distorted, my mind was spinning, my brain was burning
Complete realisation occurs, trying not to imply incessant narcisissm
While vehemently arguing my personal perspective as I tore the object off my sleeve
It finally stays inside myself, repairing just repairing, for once in my life
Now that it has subsided, and as of the events only experienced beforehand
Round and round in circles we go
When the mind has snapped out of that mentality, it'll be late, too late
For now, round and round in circles we go

Lights

I've been writing random poetry on my iPod touch. Todays was during my train ride back home, I was just in that 'mood'

____

Lights lights.
One by one they veer in through the window
Laughing morbidly

They serve as a reminder
"Let's not make that mistake again"
For it's embedded in my brain
Never to

Learning learning
From these lights
Living living
I smile once again
With no mask behind

Open your eyes - Snow Patrol

I love these lyrics so much.


All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
My bones ache, my skin feels cold
And I'm getting so tired and so old

The anger swells in my guts
And I won't feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
'Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes [x4]

Get up, get out, get away from these liars
'Cause they don't get your soul or your fire
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine
And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time

Every minute from this minute now
We can do what we like anywhere
I want so much to open your eyes
'Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes [x8]

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you

Spring

Oh spring
How you have greeted me
With a warm gentle breeze

Oh spring
I've walked into you
Finally

Oh spring
After months of winter
I vowed never to turn back

Oh spring
I'm glad you're here
Welcoming me with open arms

Oh spring
A change of seasons
Literally, and metaphorically

Oh spring

Void

Let the words flow into my brain
Write whatever I like
Warp the structure
Distort the mind

Blankness fill the empty void
Happiness fill another
Sadness fill another
All in all, my brain is filled

Contorting, morphing words
Mould to my liking
Smile elegantly
As I click the designated button

Life

Confide in it
Learn a lesson
Just maybe, maybe

Live it
Embrace it

Love it
Whatever it is.

Side

I enjoyed the Sun on my face
Twirling winds blow heavily around
Smiling as I embrace the day

A glimmer of hope twinkles
Leaving the Earth it's bound to
Lighting the sky with its embrace

Levels are non-existent
Overlooking the ground below
Orange sky vibrant as always
Killing time as I stare into the distance
I revel in euphoria
Never to escape from this bliss
Going to sleep with content

Utopia awaits in my head
Peripherals widen as I awaken

Head

Pulsating pulsating pulsating
My head throbs in pain
Doesn't help staring at this screen
Writing what comes to my head

My eyes a daze
Everything a mess
Close my eyes
I lay to rest

Faces

Game face on
Walk outside
Face the World
Burning inside

Beating

Was reserved for a reason, the reason isn't there anymore

____

Beating beating beating
That's what my heart is

Placing my hand to my chest
I feel a beat
Slowly slowly beating

I take my hand off
I feel nothing
But an emptiness where
My heart once was

I feel it still beating
Yet there's nothing there
Nothing is beating

Masks

This mask I wear
I wear it so well
This mask I wear
Nobody can ever tell

This mask I wear
It's set on so tight
This mask I wear
It shields me from the light

This mask I wear
Nobody can see my tears
This mask I wear
Nobody can know my fears

This mask I wear
I can empathise
This mask I wear
I can synthesise

This mask I wear
Is on top of another mask
This mask I wear
Removing it is a murderous task

This mask I wear
Isn't one, it's multiple layers deep
This mask I wear
Shouldn't be something you should seek

Now

You all mean the World
That you must know

You all mean everything
That you must know

You are my second family
That you must know

Never will I take you all for granted
That you must know

I love you dearly
That you must know

Unresolved issues
Complicated consequences
The words are just useless

The numbing ensues
The headache starts
The pain is too true

Kill the loneliness
Embrace the atmosphere
I walk down the street silently

Mask

I wear this mask for six hours a day
I wear this mask for five days a week
I wear this mask for twelve months
Tomorrow I take it off

Dot.

Ignore the aesthetics
Create meaning out of nothing
Create nothing out of everything

Motion Picture Soundtrack - Radiohead

More lyrics I am in complete awe of.






Red wine and sleeping pills
Help me get back to your arms
Cheap sex and sad films
Help me get back where I belong

I think you're crazy, maybe
I think you're crazy, maybe

Stop sending letters
Letters always get burned
Its not like the movies
They fed us on little white lies

I think you're crazy, maybe
I think you're crazy, maybe

I will see you in the next life

Oblivious

All so oblivious

I watch you smile and laugh
Watch you all enjoy each others company

Watch all of you act like there isn't a care
in the World

It makes me die inside.

Today

I'm tired I'm tired
I'm tired of this mask
Distract me distract me
It's all I ever ask

Six hours of torture
I had to endure
Repressing repressing
Composing myself, not so sure

The sight of a text
Burned my eyes in italics
For I was numb
So numb

Heart

I gathered composure as I stared
Burying my face into the papers I held
The sky was gloomy
A mirror of as it was this very time before
Nothing but a memory I would love to cast ashore

My heart sank walking through the busy street
Gulping my drink bit by bit
Playing songs that remind me. Just remind me
I needed to gain composure, badly
I hopped in his car, smiling gladly

Back on track
Corner of my eye
Walking through
Lifted
I smiled.

Re:

Re-analyse
Re-think
Re-do

Three

For the fucking truth is
I miss you

For the fucking truth is
I ask why you leave

I ask why you leave all the time
It's a question that i've never got an answer for
It's a question that I want to be answered
As soon as possible

______________

I need you bro
So fucking much

You don't have any idea

I'm going to hold on until lunch
It's going to be my biggest mission

For I had nobody but you 30 hours a week
7 day a week
For the last 12 months

____________

I'm worrying about you
Through this drunken state

I'm hoping all is well
And you don't do something stupid

Life is hard like this

Smile

Conclusion reached
While satisfaction is mildly accomplished

Drowsy as I write
Eyes burning slowly

For it's all done
I hope

No longer filled
Any detail of torment

Realisation has occurred
Epiphany reached

I am smiling
Only smiling

Words are meaningless
Words are useless
Words are what we used to construct meaning
Words are an escape and an excuse to how we feel

Show not tell
Words are a limitation

The ability to use words
Succinctly
Concisely
Such brilliance is a skill

Yet it limits us.
We're restricted.
Restricted by the confines of language
Never to be broken

Sanctuary

My escape
My sanctuary

Not a place found in books
You can't read about it

You can't 'be there'
You can't just 'go there'

Within the confines of my mind
My escape is there
My sanctuary is there

It makes me feel
It keeps me sane
Makes me feel real

Lost in a trance
Always.

When escaping, I lose control
I escape reality

We have our place.
Once you find it
Embrace it
Cherish it

Let it not be a physical one
But one where you can access
At any time of day
At the tick of a trigger

Live in it
Love it.

Backspace

Wrote this ages ago

The amount of times
We press backspace
Imagine the words that slip away

How many 'I love you''s
Would we all have missed

How many 'I need you''s
Would have drifted by

Those last words to a friend
Would never be heard

That last desperate attempt
Would have been flawed

Think.

How would your life be
If all we could do was press enter
Never erasing your words
All out for the person to read

If I didn't have a
Would we
Would you
Where would

Untitled

Ignoring the convictions
Surpassing the doubt
Burning the idiocy
Regardless of the amount

Destroy the views
Kill the lights
Move forward
Regardless of what's right

It's set in stone
One ear out the other
Otherwise
It's broken

Heavy cynicism
Little to no narcissism
Plethora of pessimism
Reject the voice that's in your within

Stage

Bright lights
Shine upon the stage
I stare at the crowd
Thousands of glaring eyes
Looking at me

I play.

Definition

Every facet of it
Under every definition
Screaming screaming screaming
Pervading tradition

None can accurately describe
What the eyes can see
They're blurred with a haze
Speechless at the heart, only to dream

Every hour turns
Into one minute
For every minute
Alive within it

Seven passes
Six lives
Five smiles
Four tension builds

Three closing
Two close to end
One reminiscing
For there's something to mend

Boy who blocked his own shot

I'll just be posting lyrics from some artists which I think... Are just genius, sublime and poetically beautiful.

The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot - Brand New

If it makes you less sad
I will die by your hand
I hope you find out what you want
I already know what I am
And if it makes you less sad
We'll start talking again
And you can tell me how vile
I already know that I am

I'll grow old
And start acting my age
I'll be a brand new day
In a life that you hate
A crown of gold
A heart that's harder than stone
And it hurts a whole lot
But it's missed when it's gone

Call me a safe bet
I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad you that can forgive
Only hoping as time goes
You can forget

If it makes you less sad
I'll move out of the state
You can keep to yourself
I'll keep out of your way
And if it makes you less sad
I'll take your pictures all down
Every picture you paint
I will paint myself out
It's as cold as a tomb
And it's dark in your room
When I sneak to your bed
To pour salt in your wounds
So call it quits
Or get a grip
Say you wanted a solution
You just wanted to be missed

Call me a safe bet
I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive
I'm only hoping as time goes
You can forget
So you can forget
You can forget

You are calm and reposed
Let your beauty unfold
Pale white like the skin
Stretched over your bones
Spring keeps you ever close
You are second hand smoke
You are so fragile and thin
Standing trial for your sins
Holding onto yourself the best you can
You are the smell before the rain
You are the blood in my veins

Call me a safe bet
I'm betting I'm not
I'm glad that you can forgive
I'm only hoping as time goes
You can forget

Promise

For I will try with all my breadth
my heart
my body
my soul

I will keep this.

Mountains will move
Seas will part
Skies will turn black

Trekking right through

Through fire
Through brimstone
Through lava
Through volcanoes
Through eruption

Through the coldness of winter
Through the blizzards
Through glaciers
Through iceburgs

Through the lightning
Through the thunder
Through the storm

Through the end of the World
Through hell
Through heaven
Through purgatory

I will keep it.
Promise.
I promise I promise.
I promise I promise I'll keep it.

Word

Meaning of a word
Captures ones soul

That's it.
Just it.

It is what it is.
I cannot explain it.

It just is.

Inspiration

Old one.

We leave the shadows of our past behind
In turn to grow and nourish our inner selves
The shadows haunt us wherever we go
But that is a part of life

Letting go of what you used to be
Embracing what you have become

Develop from the days
Harmonious for the hours
Miraculous for the minutes
Smile for the seconds

Move forward
Not behind
Because the World
Won't wait for you

Life

Smile because you deserve to
Breathe because it's a necessity
Laugh because it's the best medicine

Cry to let it all out
Hurt because it's proof you're human

Live because it's the only thing you can do.

Seasons

Summer

I walk through the street, Sun in my face
Feeling the cool breeze fill my lungs with euphoria
Grass pushing upwards against my feet
Gravity trying to pull me down, while I always pull myself upwards

Autumn

I walk through the street, clouds in my face
Feeling the cool breeze fill my lungs with happiness
Dying grass pushing upwards against my feet
The trees are turning a shade of brown, slowly.
Gravity trying to pull me down, while I struggle to pull myself upwards

Winter

I walk through the street, bleak sky raining down
Feeling the cold cold air, fill my lungs with metaphorical liquid nitrogen
Dead, cold grass pushing upwards against my body
The trees are dead.
Gravity has almost won, while I crawl, and crawl
I crawl until I can crawl no more
To die in winter, to shrivel in the cold

Winter

I'm still crawling through the cold grass
I can almost see it
Almost.
Just almost.

Spring

Ponder

Learning, learning
Each day
We think and think
Each day

It's a constant process
Dumping the innards of our heads
Filling it with new lessons
New ideas

Utter simplicity
So intricate so beautiful
No longer devoid of appreciation
We smile

We smile to our view of Heaven
We smile to our view of Hell
We smile to our view of Earth
We smile to what we've learnt

For this could be nihilistic
So existentialistic
Philosophers cannot fathom
Such logic for a complex subject

We revel in our sorrows
Revel in our joys
Forever wondering
Why we are so devoid

For I shall sleep tonight
In my warm bed
Pondering pondering pondering
Until I give into my head

Awake

Wrote this ages ago.

Dim light fades through my eyes
Immobile I stay

Blinds block my view of sight
Scaring the night away

Imamate objects gazing at nothing
Intense breathing ensues

Heartbeat racing
Indescribable feuds
Welding within myself

The embers of emotion
Pry through my veins

As I lay awake in bed
All thoughts astray.

Breathe

Breathe in
Breathe out

Inhale
Exhale

Inwards
Outwards

Oxygen flowing
Through my veins

Sight fading
Sight regaining

Fall into sleep
Fall out of slight

Remnants of the night before
Remnants of the morning after
It still... Does

Hollowing out my innards
Open for all to see
People stop and stare
Envelope everything, lock it tight

You seal it with your mouth
Overlap it with your tongue
Underneath it all, concealed forever

Are we satisfied with the contents
Reading them for one last time before
Everything is thrown in the fire

Heavily sedated with thoughts
After the gasoline of epiphany
Pours on the sealed envelope
Purposely setting it alight with
Yesterdays thoughts, moving into tomorrow

Free

Pour it out
Leave it be
Burning eyes
Tears to dry

Learn
and learn again
For such is life

Wander around the concrete
Thoughts captured within my head
Struggling to face upwards

I walked over
Sat down
Started thinking

My mind shrivels
Back into its hole
Sitting on this chair
I don't even need to care

Street Lights.

This one, I wrote... Ages ago.



Street Lights

Walk past
Every street light
It's all the same
One by one
One by one

Emitting the same glow
Extruding the same light
Programmed with the same watts
Just boring.

Stride down the street
as the cold air fills your lungs
Aware of the clones of street lights
Again
and again


Come across a broken light
Gaze in curiousity
That's about it, just keep walking.

Spend all your time trying to find a unique light.
One on its own.
It can be found in its glow.
Its light
Its watts
Its shape
Its size
It could just be the way the moonlight reflects off the bulb
Or how this light is moved in a different way.


Then again...
Sometimes you think you've found a unique light that catches your eye
But it ends up being exactly like all the others.
Just the same.
Just the same.


Over and over again.
This cycle continues.
Until morning...
You can really see
What the lights for what they were.
What they really were.
What they are.

But nobody cares.
Nobody looks.
Nobody pays attention.
Just because a light glows at night
Doesn't mean that's all it's good for.


Take for granted this light.
Before.
It.
Just.
Fades off.
Into.
The.
Morning.
Morning.
Never.
Never.
To.
Be.
Noticed.
Again.
Again.
Again.
Again.
Again.
Again.
Again.
