Have you walked where you've never been and it felt more then just familiar...

CURSED...................................


I've walked this way on hallowed ground
In riches and rags I've been around
As male and female I've played the part
I've won the dance and lost the heart
I've looked in to the eyes of love,
As I've watched the roses wither

With chill of spin I know not how
The one true rose will bloom
As it has before this time,
In a crescent harvest moon
Each time, loving more and more
As I am as infinity, love never ends,
over and over it begins

My last life lost in battles defeat
It brought me back in wounded pleat
I ware the scares of gallant pride
On victorious dreams I ride

In this life I know that I shall heal
To rejoin the world as it is sealed
Am I a worrier? No say not
I fought for riches I never got

'Tis peace in heart, I've not found
In hollowed hills, on battle grounds
Many souls have passed my way
And onto the heavens, where they shall stay
As I only dream of such a day

As I turn each corner, I know I've been
And ten thousand more, that I shall spend
I'll see the eyes again and again
As I watch the roses wither

For eyes that close are not far gone
they are not at rest,
they have just moved on
To a place like here, with just new names faces and places are all the same

Though some don't know just where or when
If they have seen, and are back again
Inside of them they know not
Splendor of sorrow is what they got

They are the players in the poets verse
They too, bare the weight of this curse
Their eye's have seen an unending past
From heart to tounge their tails are cast
Time will pass as peace they seek
As again in life they meet

If with pen in hand I've made you think
then I've not wasted one drop of ink
