The waters are disturbed Once again Blue and green Laugh; it’s all you can do This cry, this pressure This mile to measure You place your hand on the ocean floor Then kiss the foot of the ether door Untamed, you again think so childish A face so lineless and wild Smudged by the human desires The moon reveals itself again Bearing it’s face of scars to a world unscathed The truth however it could not save; we cannot be saved The tides of this space are senseless, because we chose better We must be right, we are never wrong, not ever You embraced it wholly as being there The purpose of which was not a care This fire is reasonless Once again Orange and yellow Scream; it’s all that’s here This fate, this pressure This mile of measure Kiss this ice and we’ll watch it melt The choking call of what we felt The war drums cannot save us now We shunned away from our light Betrayed the sweet embrace of warmth “We’re becoming something more, we must be…” The sun shows it face from the deep Enraged by all of what it sees It burned us into life, yet we stand frozen stubborn But still we turn our backs into an ever-night Reading the mountains, that it rose from Frowning at the age now called “unmade” The emotion is forgotten Once again Red and black Dream; it’s all that’s left This pain, this pressure This mile or measure Remember what it was to feel We were not always made of steel Remember love; red and embarrassed Remember hate; black and furious Remember what it meant to be human Alive with some sense and meaning The universe spins itself in two again A face for both halves Life; use wise the time you’re given; that time was always driven Comprehend and prosper, making this world something “greyter” Needed to face our fear of interconnection Become just one and learn together Death; the final inevitability, where we wish for more Primitive decisions and the dirt becomes us We choose our end and the stars divide us Our end didn’t mean forever, but that’s what we decided A choice can either break or mend Face tomorrow it is our end The end of a beginning that was so endless Part the treachery and you have an exacted man A spark in the depths It starts again |

I'd just like to know why in the blue hell this didn't get any replies. It was beautiful, thought provoking. I loved this. |
