INVISIBLE

invisible, cause I don’t exist
nothing but a reflection
of the great mystery
the moon’s my friend

you don’t, you don’t see me
cause I don’t exists
in this frame of reference
you call reality
an illusion of polarity
that remains a mystery
cause you don’t see me

invisible, cause I don’t exist
nothing but a reflection
of polarity
the moon, my friend
a reflection of the sun

beneath the fire it’s one
that lies still
waiting to awaken
the emperor’s friend

DRAGON'S FIRE

The flame burning low,
long since the dragon spat it out

the decadence burned it down
eternal the flame
as long as it’s fueled with life-force to breathe

Cough up the blood in me
watch it coagulate with the right frequency

down to the hole,
in search of whatever
just as long as I can
keep my mind occupied
far from the dragon

twenty two the paths
and ten the rings of power
engraved on it’s back,
Perfect the balance

THE SUN

Quiet little centre
of his universe
not knowing the doors
or the verse
being their key

Calm little storm
waiting to rise from
what’s within
the sun pushing through
not to long for the rise

this time let it overcome
no fight to maintain
the same
welcome the change

let it all in
flush down what’s left
of a broken past
remember but forgive yourself
to welcome it all in

RISING SIGN

pressure starts to build at the
base of my spine
let it rise, all the way
this time
 

fathom the end
to be near
this time
let it not turn into fear of mine

pressure’s rising up my spine
tingling all the way
no discrimination
of pain
delve in
hanging upside down

CHOICE

staying in my dreams
safe this haven.
and what do you see
when you open your eyes
is it only what you
convinced yourself to see

choose this reality
to be
this one haven
enough of this waiting

can’t you see
cannot wait forever
to let it all come back
to this life

no longer need this
entertainment of
jealousy, grief and worry
eleven’s now

WOW !

MORNING DEW

Another day rising,
the morning dew
first rays of light spiraling through;
the colors of a rainbow
and yet strange mourning glory is all I can feel these days

rays of light spiraling through; spiraling through

the blossom on the tree
holding life within, (but none)
take the time to see
how life unfolds this time of year
reflecting the good that’s left within

rays of light spiraling through; spiraling through

cycles of life, unfolding like the seasons
life and death, both part of the great unknown
so close if we take the time to see
what’s within.

rays of light spiraling through, spiraling through

BEAST

a roaring, fierce the scream
that pierces my ears.
hungry for life it soars through my mind.
forget the words I hear,
the sound that stays behind
is what takes my mind
turns me so desperately, pulling life closer
pushing it back again

the beast that soars
fierce the screams
that pierce my ears

cannot hear the words
scarred my mind, the time
pushes through, the barrier, so desperately
trying to hold me back
hungry for life this mind takes the time

dark these days, the beasts that soar
fierce the screams that pierce my ears
the mind takes the time to pull back out again

TASTE

rolling on along with
the white widow
dreams flowing
no one around to block the thoughts

coming and going
like the clouds passing
not taking the time
to stay, realize

the moment passing
unnoticed
is it even happening
or just part of the illusion

going on so sweet
to stay in
the oblivious
until you taste

VALUES

The value of life,
just gained consciousness
of what it can be worth.
No words have the accuracy to put it right.

Feeling so much higher
than anything known,
thrown out of balance
up to the high side.

No more lies needed to disguise,
no more disguise needed to speak
the truth.

The lonely man leaving the hill
coming down to share.

WALK

words you spoke
not your meaning I hear
inside I fear
so they make me choke

ready to run and hide
with my bags
packed to heavily
to escape from myself

ate from the tree of life
why did I not choose the tree of knowledge
to access the philosopher’s stone

the day I dread
when it all comes down
to the end
judging myself, what will I
have to say

time to become the old man
no longer willing to stray
from the path

CRAWL IN

life to breath
appearances that deceive
long the breath
longing for comfort
to crawl in

once you know
how fortunate you are
no longer long to run
from the past

consumption that consumed me
not far from pulling the trigger
close the chapter
no longer necessary
stripped the shell away

life to breathe
appaerances that deceive
long to breathe
comfort crawling in
soothing me

consumption that consumed me
comfort from the past
no longer necessary
stripped the shell away.

SENSES

my eyes were deafened by the sound,
my ears were blinded by the sight,
as I realized I was standing in heaven,
feeling it like hell.

don’t need to be reminded
that there is nothing to give,
nothing to take,
when it belongs to us all

close my eyes, so I can see
the way I’m heading in
no longer waiting for the day
that’ll never come

don’t regret a thing.

NOT THE ONE

i am not the one to mend
your broken heart.
i am not the one to feed
you life's energy.
i am not the one to show
you how to live.

just as;

you are not the one to teach
me how to love.
you are not the one to show
me how to love.
you are not the one to make
me live again.

No Not That One.

Master

Force fed, like childrentreats that become a pain no free will left to breathe

treat you like a child they need to control how long before the rise in mutiny

the master that became the slave no free will left to breathe long since the brave has gone to feed

a monkey in a cage howling how long before the rise of rage to break free of the chains

long since past, the time of the master being in control count to three

Drop dead
