"Oath"

A swarm in my mind

It’s warm in my heart

It’s the excuse I feed myself

The reason my eyes are weak

Crescent dreams light the sky

The mournful blackness spreads

The stars fight back with glowing lights

But the galaxy may burst at the seams

The wreckage becomes omnipotence

Every being reborn into nonexistence

As the abyss fades as reality collapses

But the world starts to reform anew

And energy washes over me

Falling stars have given me life once more

Suddenly I know what I have to do

And for once I’m not lost in this lucid dream

“The End of All Static”

Say goodbye, twin sisters.

Fall short of my dreams.

Helpless in sorrow and

Faded by your screams…

It’s the untwisted, unraveled path.

Tomorrow is what I’m living for.

I’ve been searching for a lifetime

And now I’ve finally reached its core.

Here I wake up in the haze

I see a maiden among the trees

My vision still blurred from the salted waters.

Will this heart bring me to my knees?

Father, can you hear me when I call out to you?

Did you have any idea that I’d lost myself for a while?

Are you sure you’re listening; I just want to make sure…

On this legendary day you have brought me a smile!

I can’t seem to dry these swollen eyes…

What is this feeling? Could I be living again?

Revival of heart, I’m breathing once more.

From beneath the earth I arise with my skin.

Say goodbye, twin sisters.

A victory in my battlefield of dreams

The static is far behind me now.

No longer faded by your screams…

“Soulcastle” - *100th Blog Post!*

I’ve been fully restored; revived from the depths of dreams.

The face of terror was locking in my mind for far too long…

Now I just have to find my place in all of this chaos.

Should I take to the skies or take to the seas?

Mirrors check up on me while LCDs enthrall me.

The past makes a brilliant appearance in all of this.

Would words be enough to give you, I’d be satisfied.

This hunger within me seems to lash out at me.

Am I strong enough, with you on my side, never-ender?

Will I betray my own temptations at long last?

Will the night sky shed a single star for me?

All these unanswered questions leave me hesitant.

I’m no murderer, no offender, yet my sin lives within.

Nevertheless, I cannot fall short of myself any longer.

An aura overwhelms me and I find myself not so brittle.

And I find myself longing for a new frontier.

“Death Howl”

It courses through your head

And it won’t rest ‘til it’s been fed

Pray for your souls; the armored ants are advancing

The hills will fall to dust as the demons start dancing

Every life is forfeit by the end of the show

Darkness eternal, even in the white of snow

“I noticed you just couldn’t contain yourself today

When I cut you open and let all the blood spray”

A wave of light delays the passing of time

Death seeps into the air covering all in rime

Disintegrating last words escape his throat

The ashen skeleton would bellow and gloat

Freezing arms warming freezing bodies in vain

Vanquished as their spines contort in this domain

All your fallen will receive this one last boon

The risen shall feast on them until afternoon

All hope is lost beneath the ice

Only scraps now left to the mice

Hail to the throne of crows

This flesh will decompose

But there will be no end to this freeze

And the earth will abound with disease

“Chasing Dreams”

Daylight’s only sun burns down

Before the royal night offers its moon

And I’ve wandered the countryside

Lost in this spectacular dream of mine

Where friends and family are closest

And all I’ve ever wanted was in my grasp

For just a moment’s pause; a short breath

I’ve found love so brightly lit within me

As I stare into the eyes of the ocean

And she stares into the eyes of the forest

I’ve placed my mark upon this dusty map

As I cast away that which does not enrich me

I’ll pull all the stars down from the sky

Just to be closer to home, once and for all

"Go Go Humanity"

There is no escape...

A photon laser to cut the wicked smile from your face

Competitive hearts and break beats coded in binary

Your mind will ache and your fingers will tingle

Sore eyes and weapons of mass isolation

Technology enhanced in the eyes of the marauder

Tyrannosaurus Rex was a romantic before its time

Murdering with saw-bladed teeth to survive

Growing up so naïve in this information sea

Mechanical last words are heard from the scraping distance

Wake up with your hands tightly gripping your bedposts

For the eyes of the digital demons are envious today

Come away with me before this heat consumes you

“Twelve Twelve”

Hey settler, don’t settle

A little bit of love and little bit of virtue

Today is the brightest day of the year

‘Cause this fire will never smolder

I’m facing the edge of the water

And I can see the little ripples

As I remember all of my sorrows

Holding on tightly to my revival

Can’t you see the stars up high?

Like confetti swimming the murky sky

Comes after eleven and just before thirteen

Drip drop, double double, I’m in love

Twelve-twelve and I’m home again
