Stars At Noon

Now again,
I see the sun at midnight
Cutting the clouds
Living on the winds of flight
My wounds seeping
A red so bright
The brilliance of darkness
Has taken away all my sight
The apathy I am accused of
Is a mask of what is "right"
Healing my scars
From an endless fight
Here left to stand
Suffocating my only light
Told to come back
To a place I never left and
Now again,
I see the sun at midnight

I wonder

There he stood,
vengeance worn like a brand
Eyes narrowed
cursing every helping hand
Arms outstretched
feeling his way through darkness
Mind numb
lost in this pursuit of happiness
Spoken silence
embracing all he longs to forget
A world challenged
where there is no room for regret

There he stood,
every fiber in his posture humble
Head inclined
causing pitied mountains to crumble
Subtle breath
creating life in an empty halo
Fervent heart beat
betraying doubt worn like a shadow
Frozen tears
falling on cheeks dried with reality
Fallen asleep
in the truth of his discrepancy

From the Corner of an Eye

To chase a feather in the wind
finding no truth to deny
walk down a road with no end

Choose as if you have the choice
i'll always be near
even if you can't hear my voice

Wonder if you should stay
or pretend you don't care
i'm finding it easy to say...

Oh yes, misery loves company
but you my dear
have nothing to fear
so light up my days
and i'll never go away
because misery loves you

Compassionate without sentimentality
put things into perspective
in your self-constructed reality

Deft and always in a hurry
trying to see the future
so you can pause to worry

When you have that one wish
to simply walk away
but let me tell you this...

Oh yes, misery loves company
but you my dear
have nothing to fear
so light up my days
and i'll never go away
because misery loves you
