Pride and Honour, Humility and Shame

It was always for another reason

It stretched from one end to another

Continued until it ran round the poles

Still you could see it on the glasses we all possess

For the grains and blades that cover the surfaces

The spoils and deceased will burn the mobiles we run


The family man or the child knows not the old ways we once marched into fields of gold for

The understanding of Labour has changed

Times have moved on not the path that was once so hard

Enhanced to improve our survival rate

We are not the only ones to evolve

Generating nothing but hate and disloyalty to those around us which have our hands in our pockets

As the paper falls like leaves on an autumn day

We all wait and stare into the sky

Where science has given hope

It has also taken faith

With each action from the slide of a finger to a point

Control is what we try to obtain

Leaving what was the strength as the enemy we seek and never saw

With just a simple press of the tool we were given we didn't realise that it was just a glitch


Hidden faces glance and peer concentrating on the very thing we all know existed and ignored

The fly on the walls keep its eye attached to what you do so it can swoop and spoil the spoils

Humanity and existence lost its true meaning when it answered the question

Why

How

Where

When

What

Who

...Us...

...There was no place for it now, in te past is where it will stay, as for the latter...

...It surrounds us and will forever be in our hearts...

Glitter Hates It's Own Reflection

Fumbling through each item


It is obvious to see the extent which the spark appears


Dust particle each from a source on the surface of a matter we cannot see


Yet in space and time we associate the moons non-existance to the existance of the satellites that surround us


An arms reach i as far as I will go


As anyone will go


Will the glass between let us see that far


With a smile we hit heaven's clouds


Continuing in the never ending spell of disapproval


Take a trip down the hole to the pit


Not where the Sun rises nor where darkness stays


It is where the locker to the fondest wishes of the creature we dare see holding onto the drenched


The wicked and wounded curled and exorcised


Arms round the knees hair drooping over


Black is the colour yet vibrant still


Somara became so jealous she tore away


The glass still in between


Still sits and changes the view


The black becomes light and the white becomes dark


We go one way


The rest will follow


The exception stands and fights


The revolver goes one way


The way we run


The cut and clean bold and omnipresent


Forever shield us from our own demise


Yet we forget that we hold ourselves in insanity


The norm shall begin and end


The sane will run and stand


But the ones controlling are the ones we stand by and listen to


Controvertial and hypocritical as it seems


It isn't at all in the slightest


The glass still stands still


If nature felt natures call

We must be mutants...

Misinterpretation of a Written Line

Each line I write was given the sense of beauty
It was seen as a crisp distinction between one language to another
Translation from mine to yours
It is not the words we share that make it beautiful
It is not the words we send or receive
It is the silence we share when we say nought-a-word
With every language known to man there is still one language we all understand
Whether you are lost
500 feet underneath the ground
You'll find that one thing everyone will understand
The shape of something that looks nothing like the real thing
The colour of not the muscle but the liquid running through it
Learning the hard way makes you understand things a lot better
Following the route will only get you so far and so near
Seeing as the leaves fall and the tree grow small
We all follow the weather and cover up that we expose
Flesh and bone become undiscovered once again yet eyes will follow
The leopard skin only show the shapes and the zebra stripe uncovers the mind
Simple as black and white
Sophisticated as the monochrome colour
Intimidated at the same time
Not a second passes without the thought of something instigated by the minds eye
It is just nature to do so
It is not who you are
It is what you are and we are only human
With second thoughts hovering around the brain
Tension rises and anxiety build but what I see is simple beauty in nature
The tree that once grew out with leaves falling each Autumn is also the tree I sat under
The same tree we share together
Not just two people but more so
Each person we know
Each person we meet
Each person we make eye contact with
And each person we share a special moment with
The place is not important
We are as much in heaven as we are in hell
But here is where we can compromise
We will join and we all stand to say what we want
But I will stand and simply smile
Because I would not have the words in me to say anything right

The Writing I Washed Away

Summer will turn to a different day
In that time the tears willfully fall upon our skin
The sun sets to sweeten the scene
The warm sand breathes the same air we share
With only one being on the shore
It is obvious I stand alone with nothing but my imagination lost
In darkened spaces I will stand out with my beak asking to perch
With my wings I'll span across the sea and find what I was once looking for
I try to make sense of it but I never will
Instances of light flashes towards me and I am given the sensation that I have lost it once again
If only I could translate every language to a universal symbol
With every hand raised it seems impossible to find one
A hand on my heart which isn't mine
I hold it tightly with grace and comfort
Breathe life into that which holds me then and never let go
Eye to eye and fist to fist
Grasped and willing to give it everything and to give in to anything
In taboo situations that leave the tingling sensation that once was found by someone else
Extended to the farthest reaches of the each others world
Uncovered and discovered who each other really are
Going further and further knowing well that it was wrong
Knowing everything is not that of what the mind is saying
Yet still giving in to sin
I'll still be looking for what I was missing in that subject
In that manner
That matter we were so longing for never came true in the light that we hoped to be independent
Same country was easy if it wasn't here nor there
Same continent would be the same as above all
So questioning what I know
It was not your dream and it wasn't my reality
We won on our own turf
If only that were true
Stick to what I know what to say and I will give you that which is holy
Breeze drifts past my face and flowers will send my mind into shock
Still insisting that I am in their fate
I am not in control of what I do
But an excuse is all it really was
It was too late and too early
I could never get the timing right nor the right words
I'll give you my life in a crystal light and break it up
Each colour will make you wonder if I'm really persistant or lazy
Here my words have the right only to speak the words I never could say
So I say this to you and your one
Dream sweetness and awake with the smile that out shines

Started To What Was The Ending

With a trip to the north
I'm heading out with the memory of you
I still want to run my hands through your hair
Still in my mind with a grin in my smile
How it was everyone said we were a perfect pair
But the technicalities were in the way
With a ring on with the silver centre spinning round
Sophistication and an accent to boot
Sweet and elegant that befits a princess
It was hard to say goodbye
Seeing you turn away while the car rolled on
Missing the lazy days where we laid in the sheets
With nothing but two faces and soft skin
We have to say au revoir to the nostalgic feeling
Long before I could admit to the reality
I had to have that kick in the butt
We had the knowledge of the ending
Though I never wanted it
I'm glad we ended it with no consequences
Thanks to you I have some memories that will last forever
We were not in love but we loved
That was enough
that's enough
enough.
