♢ Lost Memories ♢

Wishful thinking,

Silent thoughts,

Tales of times

That don't exist.

Quiet laughter,

Hidden tears,

Shutters closed

And peaceful bliss.

Rambling words,

Pointless walks,

Cheerful birdsong,

Barking dogs.

Towering trees,

Dusty books,

Sunlight seeping

Through the blinds.

Empty house,

Bubbling creek,

Flowers on

The windowsill.

Of all the things

That live today,

We don't have time

To live again

In all of our lost memories.

♡ The Lonely Side of Love ♡

If you love her,

Spare a glance.

But cut the strings

And let her dance.

If you love him,

Keep him free.

Watch his smile

But let him be...

Motivation

I can stop here.

To look back for a second.

At the worry.

The anxiety.

The longing,

The yearning

To be in this exact moment.

Time stretching on and on,

A year, a century, an age.

Counting down

The months, the days, the hours.

All to this.

Right now.

Waiting, enduring...

For relief, closure, finality.

Maybe even pride.

We Won't Die Young, But We'll Live Fast~

We'll keep our heads turned to the sun,

Away from relics of the past.

And though our journey's just begun,

The future we can build to last.

The Sun

The Sun, the star,

Shines bright on dreary days.

A warm, shimmering light

To shine through the fog.

And yes, some Mist may swarm your mind,

But still it's only mist.

And in time it'll cease to exist.

So hold on tight and above all,

Don't you dare forget the Sun, love.

✧ Silver ✧

Sequel to Gold (and technically the rest of the Colors series too, but whatever ;P)

Silver is the tinkle of an ice cream truck,

And a cool bathe in moonlight.

A shining arrow that pierces through the flames,

Silver; the evanescence of peace.

Despair

A pressure that builds

And tugs at ur chest.

A poison that seeps through your mind

And stays there,

Crawling its way through every thought.

And you can see the light

at the end of the tunnel,

But the sun hurts your eyes

And you turn away.

And so the monster surrounds you

And pulls at every part of you

to binge on food and love and pain.

A Path of Fate

The stars are a path of fate,

Their light, a heavenly mandate.

And many a man has been lead astray,

Thoughtlessly throwing their life away.

The world may not be cheery and bright, 

But under the seams there's always light.

So keep your eyes up to the sky;

Together now, you and I,

We'll paint those black walls gold.

Ephemeral Joy

From here I watch the golden Sun

On its journey across the horizon.

Across the mountains, cities, and lakes,

And villages nestled between the hills...

A thousand problems can darken a day

But it only takes a glance,

A moment of ephemeral joy,

To blow all the clouds away.

Silence in a Jar

Silence comes in a jar;

A jar of bits and pieces

Of thoughts and dreams unspoken.

A Game of Life

You sit in the dark

With a board on your lap.

Fate and Destiny circle around,

Watching your move like crows on a carcass.

Your last Knight glows and moves,

Pulsating a bright blue in the shadows.

Out of the inky black,

A pair of royal purple eyes narrow into slits.

The Knight falters;

A sword glints in the dark...

And a pile of ash lies on the floor;

Checkmate.

Life stares deep down into your eyes,

A cruel smile curling on his pallid lips.

Imagination~

My mind will twist and turn as it pleases,

Free and unperturbed.

Full of thousands of melodies that sing as one,

Ideas that flourish and blossom.

And Imagination on its flowering path

Continues on, leaving our Society far behind.

Twirling through the cave of thoughts,

A stream of color in a world of ash.
