A Rise and Fall
A wondrous world is witnessing
The birth of legends large and small, That now just are not worth stressing But they shall grow as do we all. They may not know just who they are Or what their put here for to do, But all will look and see that star And carry all their dutys through. Before too long their names are known, The people follow with wonder The legend's life to all is shown And woe to him that will blunder. They'll ostracize the fallen one, The people laugh at his ruin. Left in the dark, an outcast stone, Known for nothing but his sin. And so a legend at his end Will pass away into darkness Not a last word will he send But fade with utmost quietness.

Enigma

It's been a couple of years since I last did poetry so bare with me:
Every waking moment I loathe the present and love the impossible Every public eye sees not the man inside but the geek outside Future, Hope and Chance crushed before me not by metal or wood but by words and thoughts by every public eye. My only option grinds metal and skin until I am what I feel like: Nothing.

Forgotten
It is the time in between that I never really noticed (It slipped away!) the last time that I said 'Hello' and you said 'Goodbye.' And to think that now I've found you again (and you might have been forgotten) the time in between the last time that You said 'Hello' and I said 'Goodbye' is an Eternity. |

I wrote this a week or two ago when I felt really lonely so here it is.
Confused and lost Looking through the halls I look nothing to see but scrambled visions my mind is one big maze nothing seems to be everything i believe is false cannot trust anymore.

An age has passed, the time had fled
The thoughts now buried within my head you took my hand, we walked a while I heard your laugh and saw your smile Those times were gone, I sat alone Tossed down my crown and left my throne To walk in gardens in the night Pondering of my beloveds flight It seemed the only though my only thought was the love that I always sought your loving kiss and gentle touch Those things of which I missed so much You took off one fateful day now I wait for you to stay To reclaim your place at my side Allow time to run and not to hide Set me free from this sadness I bear by just having you with me, holding you there.

Wow. That was beautiful, RaiRai.
A dream, wonderful strangeness in the night, A fantasy, beyond our reality's borders, A hope, thorny rose held close, A thought, ephemeral power to change a world.

Time is such a fickle thing
Throwing off that diamond ring You realize that maybe you were wrong But now youre with someone you dont belong You should have realized the time of day before the river swept you away now only shadow youll see since you went away from me but you might see the light again if you go beyond the bend and tread the water of me heart and you know we'll never part. (made that one off the top of my mind)

This is more lyrical, I'm just kinda experimenting; one minute quickie.
*** I will not waiver I will not fall Not one step back Or I'll take that fall Too close to me Too far from you I must not waiver Not 'till the dawn |

what knowledge is possessed
by those who's experience is less? that sudden wisdom of life at a glance which withers slow while long we dance Knowing of and knowing true the person known by name of you as time drifts on the faults appear as none have gone this far, I fear the depth to which I know your face the lines and how they change their place and all I know of you, so much, can not withstand this different touch shattered is the secure notion that I've found your only motion the danger of a sudden change and knowing I must lengthen range this is excitement, pure and stinging thrilling, endless, foreign and singing the melody of years to come in which your pieces exceed their sum I can not devine what it is you are nor would I desire to reach that bar the things I know of your nature are not what make me yours |
