Soft Strained Sleep

Soft glare, low light
Strained eyes in the dead of night
Sleep escapes me, nerves jangle
Soon the dawn, a new day will
Start
Someday, life in all its glory
Show me a way to a brand new story
Sitting here, it seems a dream
Surely my clouds lining will gleam
Serious matters
Stop my mind from
Settling
Speedily come, the peace I need
Sweat on brow does bead
Sincerity burns within my heart
Save me before I'm torn apart
Something must avert my fate
Sadly I realise it is my
Soul Mate

The One Sixth

If I had to break it down
From the beginning to the end
I've lived so much
But too briefly
Pre-life
Post-life
There's too much of that
That bit in the middle though
Is that all I'll remember

Is that ALL!

One sixth of my life
Was only worth living
The remainder goes on
Without me
One sixth of my life
Is all I take away
The remainder diminishes
As time pushes on
I want to give my one sixth
To someone who has the remainder

Lost in the Dark

Have you ever felt the kind of pain that no-one understands
The kind of pain from deep inside that tears you right in half
Borne of the futility of not being in control
Of your life being in others hands

Your silent screams bend your body double
Piercing despair unable to escape your throat
The outside world only sees your eyes
Unable to see where you hide it all inside
Your friends are just ghosts who poplulate your vision
There's no-one with the magic

I knew magic when I was young
It filled the world
It made it all so much fun
Stretching time forever

The magic in the laughter
In the games we played
And in the company of hearts and lives that are no longer there.

The highs make the lows so deep
And the canyon I now occupy leaves me reaching for the moon
The wells I put up to stop the pain from coming in
Now isolate me and stop me from reaching out

My pain is going supernova, surely everyone can see
But I forget how deep down I am
A star in the dark night sky, is all that they would know
If I could lift my own head up, I would see more pain than my own, I'm sure

The magic I once knew, I now know it's name
But knowing what it is cannot replace its absence
If I could tell someone what it is I long for
To find that one true soul
Then I would know love again
