The Ever Changing, Sands of Time

You came to be the rain
I was always yearning for
scratching at my surface
until I bleed no more

I remember sailing once
on a cloud around your essence
how peacefulness crept over me
every time you bless my presence

as the rain slows down
so did my hope
of ever taking part
on a journey well blockaded
down the atrium to your heart

soon there after, I was shot down
our relationship eroded
the great man I strive, for you
must have been hidden, or you
pretended not to notice

I guess that's just how it goes
always how meant to be
for if I skip this tiny stone
it was lying there, in wait, for me

just as how I was always towards you
waiting like the pebble
it took a mighty heavy loss
to accept I'm not your level
so I shall lie in sand forever

evil ways start as mistakes
made by careless ones
the lack of love they wear outward
makes them progress numb

a drop of hate is all it takes
to pierce a thin-skinned heart
once it filters through the muscle
a hole is formed to start

once it opens danger strikes
hate invades the home of love
then converts the greatest feeling
into form not pure enough

a flames is lit, it starts to spread
like an eclipsing moon
this disease you feel, very real
the shade black, of which that, 
consumes

I know I'm close inner peace
for I've reached the inner-me
I believe the way to balance
is through bright darkness synergy

the cycles dawn ,move on, then fade
as moonlight runs from young sun rays
just as beast accepts his cage
he lays their accepting defeated days

would you like this forced on you?
we know the leaders lie
at this hour make your choice
live free or caged and die.

this is for you, meant for you
it's been stored in me so strong
I accepted truth, before you knew
I took a leap of faith...too long
