Move On

I don't know what I want from life anymore,
Or what it wants from me.
I've lost sight of my hopes and dreams,
And of my destiny.

It's about the time that I should move on,
And choose a different path.
Instead of looking back in sadness,
I should look back and laugh.

Water

I sit and listen,
To the rhythmic falling of the waves,
It's like listening to the sighs
Of all the lovers in the world.

The sea is my focusing point,
My spirit is one of water,
And my element, the same.

And when I listen,
A calm passes over me,
My confusion clears.
I feel not content,
But at ease.
Realization dawns,
As I grasp what I must do.

The Sea

The waves are my heart,
Falling rhythmically
As they crash upon the shore.
The sound overwhelms my soul,
My very being feels awestruck
By the intense beauty of it all,
The way life flows
 Smoothly, but unexpectedly.
Defined by no laws,
  It knows no barriers,
    Except death.
Many aspects of life
  Are reflected in the sea:
Passion and rage,
  Are in the power
   And rhythm of the
    Ceaseless beating
     Of the expansive ocean.
Calm and rest,
  Can be found
   In the easy,
    Flowing
     Currents
      Of the water.
Dreams, fantasies and wishes,
  Can be explored,
   In its fathomless
    Surrealist depths,
     Swimming with the dolphins.
Sadness and loneliness,
  Can also be seen,
   When the ocean is quiet,
    Still,
     Without even a sign of life.

Just Listen

Listen to the wind,
Blowing, blowing.
Listen to the waves,
Crashing, falling.
Listen to the voices,
Of people calling.
Listen to the stars,
Twinkling in the night.
Listen to the world around you,
Changing, growing.
Listen to the silence...
Nothing beckons.
Now listen,
Just listen.

Neon Night

Shadows-
Twisted figures running,
Never leave the Neon Night.

Lanes of pain
And bandaged sight,
Pause beneath the Neon Night.

Hatred mists-
The bloodlust lives
Roam free within the Neon Night.

Lies that burn
And truths unroght
Contaminate the Neon Night.

A demon's tear,
An angel's plight,
I die, I kill the Neon Night.

Inside Burning

My eyes
Burning back,
Don't look down,
Take it in,
Breathe it in,
Don't Give in.

Fight inside,
No lies,
Fade to life,
Inside,
There is no pain,
Just a hole,
Vacant stare,
Frozen wide.

Bite
Deep
Down inside,
Tooth and claw,
Let it go,
Burn away,
Dead again,
All the same.
