Poems by an Ancient

it was forever ago
that i woke up to you

it was forever ago
i layed flinching hands on you

it was forever that i hung to you

on that forever so long hour after school

all my tears that never shed
pushed out the ones that wet your sleeves
as you whiped them frommy dripping brow
and wispered me that (soothing voice)

how long ago was it i told you
my love for you would ever last

id die for you and ive tried for you
ill never let you by me pass

so long ago my forever stands
as the sun once did from east to west

and tonight its been so long since then
and forever it seems ive had no rest

but you only called my name just this morning

lets float along
and sing this song
weve got all day
the days so long

ill swing away
the life ive lived
to torture my happy soul
and go on ranting about closing the door
tell every one i went mad
thinking i was always so fucking bad
ill go on not crying within each of you
itching the back of your ears

listen to the song and let it consume your filthy souls and go on on on on
together we die

lets echoe this song
til the end of this day so long
telling me im right when we all know im wrong
cus its an actors world when weve not far to fall

my love for you
will echo
throughout the rifts
of this existence
a permanent part of the past
just because
i wont be around any more
doesnt mean it never happend

it comes with me
but i ignore it
it walks with me
nagging at the back of my neck
but i ignore it
my tempered heart
can hurt all it wants

treding passed the gates
with swords held high
to turn away gaurds arms
which fall with arms diminished
of their will and strength

permeating the cobble stone streets
as a ghost from the past
each step as repetitive as the last
marking a scant profit

reaching a stair
which begat a thousand
he would step upon it first
and then its sons
bearing his sharp encumbrance
for not its weight in the world
its destiny contrasting its length
would reach a king
upon a chair
upon the step
at the cloaked form's end

gaze soft and cold
the blind king stairs up into the comers face
with dagger in hand
lunged into royal neck
the two embrace with one a gape

slowly withdrawling his burden
to step slowly down from perch so high
collapsing with a deed not done
he sets himself to gaze as the king does
loss of will awaiting death
which never comes
for a pain thats not lossed
and the ruler lives on
in this gray little world
where every ones face is mine

familiar style

i like it

When your a tangible cloud
anchored down by your own wants
let it all go
and float away
float way and see no tomorrow

got to go on
cant count the days
and the seconds fly by with me

have you ever seen it all fall away
fleeting by

grasping at those words like moths
i love you
they cant float along to the others ear
as they were from my mouth
without changing colors
and to see them allways
distracting what i meant

they cant bare my meaning
all the thoughts that are never going to leave me
crouching
fluttering around my head
nothing fully said
never really known what i fealt

shell try
listening with deaf ears
cant we see each other
such a cold bleak mirror facing ourselves

good night amiable love
your sorrowful loss lets you grieve
in your absence i let myself hurt
betraying my protective anger
leaving myself barren to the harsh weather
of the human heart

ill greet you ere morrow ends
to lavish my loves lips
with an eskimos kiss
wearing my heart on my sleeve
and a blue bonnet in my pocket

your smile brightens my hope
your tear sinks into my chest
i cant fly away
and im so sorry
i cant be whoever you want i could be
we never get what we want most
and all i want is you

enough of a push in all your hearts
its all i can do
i never got to shake his hand
sorry i cant be whoever you want i could be
but im gonna go not for him or you

as a child i thought i knew
who i was against
but it was the thing that hauled my ass
kicking screaming
always pulled me through
now ill bend
you can tell me no
one way or another
til its over i wont let you go

your a cavity in my heart
every sight digs it deeper
turning round to the security sides
to come back to a rotten place i hold for you
late at night i can sleep myself away
til it ends
with me thinking of you again
you told me honesty hurts
showing me the cuts on your arms
so i showed you the dagger in my chest
engraved to its hilt the word lies
cover your ears
so you cant hear
cover your mouth
so you cant speak
my presence amongst yours
ill walk stealthy afoot
so i can pretend ill be there
when with yourself youve won

im ok and ill be alright
but i still fucking miss you
on this valentines night.

her hair is like silk woven by a thousand skilled hands
her face looks like it was that of an angels dream
her eyes seem like a mystery from ancient times
her lips are hushed and hidden like a secret waiting to be found out

and shes wearing my shirt

slowly dripping from overcast skys
along this long road i walk
slowly dragging my innocent self along
time passes by for this visitor to life

muddy puddles arent always so bad
drops resonate off the pavement
dancing upon the instant of the grey surface
little pixies of rhyme dropping a slow beat
of my hearts inner blues

we all get our chance to roll our di
it gets the chance to play every role

soaking my brow, my dripping hair
hangs over my soaked eyes
teasing to hide my mouth
as a little smirk spreads acrosses it
like the drizzle acrossed the ground

rain drops are falling on my head
either a bounce in my step
or sulk in my shoulders
sitting on curb sides
slowly inhaling the comforts of mist
not so much a blanket
wrapped warmly around a child
more to a pallid world
acknowledging the lifes we share
it reminds me how its all comming down

shes a prism rose
like dew drop days
burning in my heart
an eternal blaze
her feelings in the air
intoxicating my respects
tugging at my shirt
wrapped up in her hair
i cant go
i cant go
