Never Shall I Forget

Never Shall I forget the screams Never Shall I forget the intensity of the flames Never Shall I forget the revulsion of peoples faces Never Shall I forget the scarlet color of blood Never Shall I forget the sighs of the ghosts Never Shall I forget the remains of the pieces of the puzzles left unsolved Never Shall I forget the whispers of the dead Never Shall I forget the echoes of bangs, endless bangs Never Shall I forget this nightmare Never Shall I forget the race The race to live

Running Away

Packing bags and leaving home 

Running into the darkness of 
night like a criminal

No destination

Just an escape into freedom 
from the nightmare

Just feeling the sunlight’s breath 
on my cheek freely

A winds whisper touching my 
ears

Running away from dreams and 
wishes

Setting an adventure of a 
lifetime

Running away from the past 
where horror lies

Running away from lullabies and 
thunder

Forgetting everything for awhile 

And sit down and breathe in and 
out for awhile

Smelling the freshness of life 
that will no longer exist

Particles of Light

Alone is when reality doesn't exist anymore

Alone is when the one person breathes for rebellion

The speed of madness soaring through the human body at million miles per hour

Taking a different road than the one intended

Taking the high sprialing road

No longer a person you know, but a stranger

Instead of reality

Fireworks covered the sky

Everything was perfect, but only for awhile

Then the crash of blackness encircles like a haunting cloak of death

When the last breaths of life come too close

The only thing left to do is replay memories of happier times

Hoping not to die in this distorted state

Then suddenly reality caves in

And all thats left is to watch those particles of lights come back

Memories Remain

Photographs are taken away

Memories of a lifetime are forgotten

Dust has been scattered over all the fingerprints

Dishes packed away

Telephones are no longer ringing

Clothes still unused

Records are no longer playing

Blood still remains on the carpet

No more sunshine

No laughter

Just the haunting silence

The dead still appear in the darkness of the corners

The clock rings that same old lullaby

Its too late to say goodbye

But not too late to make up with the ghosts

Falling Into the Darkness

Falling in love is one thing

Falling in the darkness is another

Falling in the darkness is where time becomes to a stop

Falling in despair

The sorrows of the past comes rushing in

The faces of people around are just a blur

All you hear is the silence

The gripping silence

Where your breath becomes hasty

Everything becomes meaningless

You close your eyes and hope its a dream

But its not

Its the same old play

The same characters acting their part

Same curtain drawing in, marking the end of the play

But the play is never ending

Beging pulled into reality is just another second of escape, but 

You simply don't forget the play

Horror Cracking Through

When horror knocks on the door

Slips through the cracks and enters the body, mind, soul

Fast like an avalanche

Traveling at million speeds 

It’s the same long forgotten nightmare

Every Breath

Every Whisper

Every Sound

Becomes too familiar

When falling hard to the cement

The shouts, the screams, the reminiscences

All comes too fast

Then life comes to a sudden halt

There's nothing left, just pieces of a lifetime slipping away

What Do You Do?

What Do you do if the world begins to crash into pieces What Do you do if time comes to an end What Do you do if you are slowly losing the one you love What Do you do if you fall into the darkness What Do you do if you can't find away out of the mess that you didn't create What Do you do if you are feeling sorrow and melancholy What Do you do if life begins to fade from the tip of your fingers What Do you do if you know that this isn't right What Do you do if you suddenly take a different road What Do you do if you been so blind to the things around you What Do you do if there's no escape What Do you do if theres no answers to the questions

Shadows of the Ghost

I feel like running away from it all

Escaping into the night where I can dispapear into the darkness like a ghost

The ghost that goes back to the past

That stays in the nightmare

The past is supoose to be a reminder of sweeter times

Now its known for

The Horror

The Pain

The Blood

The Agony

I had no intenion going back there

Now that I can no longer run

I have to face it





















If
