Brilliant Darkness
There will always be something you missed;
Perhaps a prism to the past..
Perhaps a ghost barely visible..
A voice barely audible..
But in your subconscious, none the less, there it will be;
Haunting you..
Holding your hand as you walk, lifeless, amongst those who have wronged you,
And those who will wrong you.
You may be alone in your physical state,
But deep within your soul there will be a force that grips you with a strength known to no man,
And that is when you will truly feel it;
That something has been left behind....
There will always be something you missed;
Perhaps a prism to the past..
Perhaps a ghost barely visible..
A voice barely audible..
But when the day comes and you are
Surrounded by darkness, in its brilliant state of white,
When your eyes finally adjust,
You will see it, in all its glory, and you will understand.
You will realize what you have left behind;
Just when it's too late.
And like all else, it will fade away.
Summer will turn to autumn, and on into winter,
Like the seasons of your life.
The brilliant glow of darkness will fade into
The dwindling sun of oblivion, the stars will shine upon your grave;
Mourning for their loss.
Yet still I will remain here;
A prisoner of your past....

Bruised Lips
Bruised lips;
Mascara smeared-
Panties lying
Over there.
Cold chills
Ratted hair,
Dull glow of a cigarette-
Lacking romance in your stare.
Top button,
Bottom step,
Door clicks shut:
Morals inept.
Window cracked,
Back to the wall-
Don't watch to see,
Don't care at all.
Another name,
Another face,
Another dress
To be relaced.
24 hours
And honorable mention;
Stepping out
From this suspension.
Already know
The fate that waits-
Don't bother calling,
It'd be too late.
Another girl,
Another day,
Another heart
You've locked away.
Making knotches
In your bedpost;
Love letters tossed-
Another name to boast.
Another body
You've advertised,
While promising a hope
Of paradise.
Another face,
Forgotten the name-
To you every girl
Is one in the same.
I'm no different,
But you'll see..
The truth behind
This sad story-
I found you out
Before time came-
You're a moment too late;
And I'm the one that got away.

Burning Daylight With This Candy Lullaby
Something isn't right about this
I walk out, and I try to doubt it
But every time I do it's like I'm pulled back into you
It's like the nagging feeling
When your mind starts reeling
When you just start up the car, but forgot to lock the door
You kick your shoes off one more time
Curse as you step on inside
And just like that you're back again, I think that lock had purpose
And it's one pink pill
We've got some burning thoughts to kill
Just you and me, and that makes three.. along with my conscience

Burns Out Bright
Our proudest moments are a waste of time.
Those few seconds in the limelight-
While we sweat the fear of disbelief
Those silver drapes sure burn out bright.
The applause flares up- the crowd is roaring
And blood is pumping fast beneath the skin
Instead of soaking up those fifteen minutes
We should be eye level with our knees bent..
Because our proudest moments sure do fade.
Those few seconds in the limelight-
As bright as every light shone within
They will burn out just as bright.
