My last stand

So now I must write
For not to, is unfathomable
As finally it stands within sight
My story welcomes the improbable

Engulfed by my phantom 
I cling hysterically, to the unknown
Should this life had been a sitcom
The applause would had been renown

In the eclipse of it all
As greatness obscures the anxiety 
I pause and esteem the heeded call
Right here, I could write for all infinity.

The known

A little glimpse into a year later
A short sight of the promised happiness 
A little help from someone who knows better 
A companion to save me from being the only witness 

The story has been read all day long
Each verse carrying within it the same line
Although we know where the end forever belong
Starting again doesn't seem to cost us a dime

A book I wrote in my own words
When read becomes a total mystery
Even with all I have observed in people's worlds 
In the end the only thing known is history

You and i

Flawed is my resolve 
Blurred is my focus
In spite all that I fight off
My insatiety remains my only curse

For you I begin
For you I overcome
As I glare at the abyss that is my sin
Your applauds incites my calm

The newsman, as jarring as ever
His words paint our world into oblivion 
Should I never see a light greater
I hope through you I live on
