Venus To Algea

Falling again,
Loveless and broken,
Grasping at distant stars,
Failed again,
With heart in hand,
Your visage seems so far,
Weary comprehend, 
Shifting the sand,
My spirit has said Au Revoir,
It never ends,
Once it begins,
Overture for my memoirs.

Falling crown,
Gravity holds down,
'Let the lion loose inside',
Form a frown,
And sulk around,
'Paradise is your personal lie',
Birds found,
With their beautiful sound,
'Ignore it life is all about spite',
Hands bound,
Emotions drowned,
'Ill break you until there's no light'.
