Time will tell the tale


Time will tell the tale
Of seeds that became trees without being planted
Of unplanned days that held the dawn of the sleeping eye
Of the babe that weaned on strange breasts that ought to have died

Time will tell the tale
Of ships that sailed off course to journey to its destiny
Of lovers that have never met but knows one another's name
Of hearts that've reached their capacity but had the audacity to keep it wanting

Time will tell the tale
Of false moments that have tainted forever
Of deep scars that signed a long history
Of forgotten scents smelt and remembered to stretch a reluctant smile

Time will tell the tale
When there is no time left to tell it
When signs are all that's left
When memories are all that's right
And tales of time is all that ends

Pain to Pleasure


Pain to pleasure
The fusion of feelings that fuel confusion constantly
There's no middle ground
There's no left right to cling to in this misery

A flustered faith in state of seizure
Wild convulsions within a pillar
A totem pole of considerations multiplied by the stars
Freedom speaks behind grills and bars

Pain to pleasure
The likely uncertainty that's destined
A maddening place that cools
An oxymoron in motion
There can be no end, nor any beginning

This grows among thorns and cannot live without them
Pierced petals are pretty and perfect
Twisted torsos stem the tide of life
To feed this lust to live, though living in turmoil
A burst of calm in anxiety

Pain to pleasure
They call this poetry
Live horror in frugal words
Mayhem in verse

A flowing harmony
No middle ground still to be found
Even in paining eyes and pleasured fears
while quaking hands stem steady sorrow

This will make no sense
Yet the mind is clear of what it feels
The inevitability of this sense is not man made
But man made is the inevitability of the sense once angered

No bones will be broken
While all will be broken
Within this doubting message
All is sure
Where pain is to pleasure

The sea that spoke to me


Breath gave life to words
As that breath escaped me
Sailed with the wind to rest upon a still sea
That sea that spoke to me

A sea that sailors wished to sail
To course the wind to find their trail
They passed on shores and walked the tide
Seeking entrance for that ride

This sea, this sea that spoke to me
If life were only fair
This sea would see the best of me
If only it were near

Breath gave life to words
As that breath escaped me
Sailed with the wind to rest upon a still sea
That sea that spoke to me

We wondered why the grass was green
And why the wind was never seen
We wondered why we screamed and shout
And why the blood ran from our mouth

The wind was never crystal clear
That's why its there for all to hear
The grass that's green can cast a doubt
Try ridding science of whitened clout

Breath gave life to words
As that breath escaped me
Sailed with the wind to rest upon a still sea
That sea that spoke to me

He clasped his hands and said a prayer
His rattled thoughts spewed hopeless fear
His knuckles white and eyes shut tight 
He wished she didn't come that night

They played a game the dead of night
The room too bright, took off the light
And now they layed their his thoughts blue
A few days after "boy is that true?"

Breath gave life to words
As that breath escaped me
Sailed with the wind to rest upon a still sea
That sea that spoke to me

King's Sacrifice


Starting was never easy!
Staring down the barrel of sudden dismay
It meant the mind grew lazy

It has come to this place
Where kings stand servant and peasants wear gold
The time is now "my sweet"

The alter is nigh
The first cut is the deepest they say
But not as deep as this
This death is bliss

the sky comes clamoring grey
Like dancing shadows in a light less space
It is a dark time my love

But not as dark as this night
No other shall hold this shade of coal
This ash of ego, this soot of "minds"

Each night that proceeds this
Will compare with midday
The sun will compete to stay a fire
As the father beholds this time in eternity

The sun shall seek shade
The fight will be no more
This is not the end but truly a beautiful beginning in doves eyes

In loves eyes...
Within you seek no rest
A fire consumes yet preserves tactile limbs
An ever blazing fire of... blue

Skies that kiss the mourning
As sorrow say hello to goodbyes bade by
Singing crows...yes! Singing crows

For here lies a feast
Here lays the dead of days
The spark of sorrows
Here lies lay and here lays days
Of a kings' sacrifice for honor
