Lets be an Emo!

I’ve decided! I will be miserable!
For reasons I’m not entirely clear on
I will gladly shed tears by the gallon
I won’t heed to those who call me a tool
Why bother trying to find reasons why?
Self-Indulgence? Just what the hell is that?
The concept of happiness now seems flat
Finding it’s just too difficult to try
And with this black eyeliner I anoint
I will banish all other emotions!
I will immerse myself in my problems!
I could find solutions but what’s the point?

I embrace despair, self-contempt and fear
Don’t know why though – seems like a good idea

Jasmine

She comes, like a beacon from the darkness
Image of purity everlasting
With a grace that leaves anyone breathless
Roses weep with envy at her passing
With her sigh she makes my defences melt
Her skin is warm, sweet, soft, untouchable
With one look, my heartstrings are softly felt
With one touch my love submits to the pull
Her eyes hold feelings no one else can touch
Her long blonde hair falls down delicately
And as her lips says that she loves so much
So she’ll reveal all her secrets to me

We both fall in a pit without bottom
As the rest of the world is forgotten

Trust the Man

Okay, as of now, let’s do things my way
To hell with you all, I’m running the show
I know the direction we need to go
So all you need to do is what I say
The time of silence is now history
For today is the day I’m in control
You stand in my way and you damn your soul
Because this moment is my destiny
I’ve got something to prove and that I will
As many restless skills begin to hone
I march only for me and me alone
This is my hour so get down and kneel

The only correct perception is mine
As it beats being wrong all of the time

Another Day is Done

Goodnight body – The greatest thing ever
Goodnight eyes – for seeing so many new things
Goodnight mouth – for never saying never
Goodnight ears – without you, the bells won’t ring
Goodnight arms – for the loads you have to bear
Goodnight hands – for keeping on holding on
Goodnight legs – for the times you took me there
Goodnight feet – you two are anchors so strong
Goodnight soul – you’ll stay with me forever
Goodnight brain – rest for your work is all done
Goodnight heart – holding it all together
Goodnight my friends – we did it, we won

Goodnight body – The greatest thing ever
For tomorrow’s another adventure

The Sentinel

It came driven by curiosity
To a blackened planet where life was mute
It travelled the world and saw it empty
It brought forth a heartbeat and it took root
Vast continents were fashioned with It’s tools
It gave the breath of life where once was none
And with it came plants, birds and animals
And when came forms of man, It’s task was done
It then watched the world for millions of years
Noting growth, science and technology
Seeing times of explorers, pioneers
And without any help necessary

It saw the creations grow as they should
And it saw them all to be very good
