Identity

Drowning in a sea of emotions

Reaching new depths

I've embraced the silence as if nothing was wrong

A voyage into your eyes

I never know what I shall find

A voyage into the city

I never know who I shall be

Inspired by this song

Priscilla

The northern winds battle with the tides

Flames of disdain embrace meaningless memento's

The emptiness eats at me

I call upon thoughts of the way it used to be

The negative tension yet I wouldn't have it any other way

Please don't tell me what it was

Everything is better left as priceless art

Those morning strolls on the beach aren't the same anymore

The inevitable can never be avoided

Only prolonged

It was never meant to be

Only forgotten

Little Sister

A curious mood

She caught me staring again

Forget it happened

I figured "Why not?" considering the holiday. Happy World Poetry Day.

Keihoku (Now and Later)

You've drifted so far away
Do you remember how it happened?
As if it was yesterday
The door has closed shut
Do you recall those golden days?
No phoenix down, trapped in your arms
Do you recall the monochromatic night
When I met you?

Daydreams of it breaking you
Too much pride to run to you
Nightmares of it breaking me
I'm far too tired
The vultures are in search for supper
The vultures are in search for supper
The vultures are in search for supper
I've grown tired

Complications and regrets
You've been raped and forgotten
Complications and regrets
I prefer the long route home
Is your tie still in tact?
This weekend; Let's make plans
Complications and regrets

I've drifted so far away
I can tell you how it happened
Tomorrow's just like yesterday
The blossoms are still black
I'll tell you a secret
That everyone already knows
Detroit is no Kyoto
But there's no place like home

I'm sorry; Take my key
Pick up where it left off
I've caught a second wind
You've cried enough, constant melodies
Throw your arms around me
The future can wait forever
Complications and regrets
