stars.

You are a star,
Shining in the darkness.
You are a star,
Providing me hope in my gloom, and when shadows are cast down on me.

So shine me out of the night,
Bring me out to the light.
Please never leave me alone in the cold and the dark winter night,
In the frost of the night.

Winds may blow
And storms may throw
Everything inside and out.

And seas may roar
Waves may soar
Drown us, take us all down.

But you give me hope,
You show me the way.
You tell me to hold on ‘cause morning is just at a breath's length away.
Hold on to life...and wait.

You shine me out of the night,
You bring me out to the light.
You never leave me alone in the cold and the dark winter night,
In the frost of the night.

Come dawn, you will be gone.
Only to come back in the night,
Burning my will to fight
As you sing me your song.

You shone me out of the night,
You brought me out to the light.
You never left me alone in the cold and the dark winter night,
In the frost of the night.

Hold on.
Move on.
Go on, G’on, Gon.
All this will pass...

our escape.

Watch the birds fly high and free,
Hear them sing their melody.

Smell the air surrounding – fresh.
Feel the Sun caress your flesh.

Look far out into the horizon.
See a sparkle in the ocean.

Feel not the guilt that comes your way.
It’s but an escape – this will not stay.

Soon all will be gone.
Our lives must move on.

Now it’s all up to fate.
‘Twas but an escape.

swimming.

Well, I know it's hard,
But I’ll say it once more…
Move on my girl,
Come, swim to the shore

Before you drown,
Before you go,
And leave me here
Alone and so…

Alive and yet dead
Walking, rather limping,
I feel not my legs
Not touch, not love…

No emotions, not a feeling,
Just numb -just there.

a painful battle.

Assembled as one, we await her command.
To move forward –the time has come.
We faced this clash eight seasons ago.
With my pawns, we put on a star-studded show
And won the war,
Defeated the enemy –though barely.
Retreated, recovered, they’ve now reacted.
Responding with rage, awaiting their resplendent glory,
They race towards our rampart, reducing rock to rubble.
I can but predict where from they’ll attack
And I know but how I should react.
Clueless and confused I pick each option
But indifferent and nonchalant, I do so without caution.
Thousands of creatures form rows and columns
Disfigured, scarred faces –they look foreign.
Their aura of evil I could feel.
Thorns and spikes designed to kill.
They confuse you tell no right from wrong.
West to East and North to South,
They fill.
My spaces filled are not one but none.
I’m outnumbered now, there’s not a chance.
Darkness reigns for it has won.
My white sheet’s stained red with slashes
Coupled together leaving holes.
I’ve failed this battle but yet I hear cries
Of joy and success…
I bleed to death.

as life goes on...

As forests go and storm clouds grow,
Green turns brown and blue turns grey.
Rainbows fade away, nothing's left- only hay.
Light receeds and darkness reigns.


Then there's love. (if only.)
