Nearing Our End: Light

Finding the ways

through the hot, damp tunnel

it continues to break

find the way

broken wine glasses

vases at the wall aiming

blaming only one for

the flying obstacles

like one was not enough

to know that one way

or another, one should not

be the constant blame

trying to live

under the short lamp

the need for light

trying not to fall

into the demons hands

fearing shades

under that moon light

waiting to find

what one is running from

but there isn't never

anything there

They Say...

They say that

love is patient

but I am wasted

waited, I had patience

...now I need rum

to subtract the sum

of our buried treasures

They say that

love with last

but there is no way to pass

and at last, we must see our past

...and I need rum

to subtract the sum

of our buried treasures

Without You, There Is No Us...

Dead
love in the water

accomplished
so I thought
all you need is love
that is so, so false

if you don't believe
in you or I
then you cannot believe
in us

if you don't trust
yourself or I
then you can't trust
in us

If you can't find compromise
then no promise
can I keep

If we cannot speak
with one another
everything will sound
much louder

if we cannot walk together
then how can we stand
each other

if you don't love
yourself enough
you can't possible
love I

If you do not learn how to swim
then we'll both drown

Rowing with all my might
I feel like I will not make it
knowing that
before I can save you love
I must save
beliefs, trust, and compromise
save the words that do harm
the emotions that makes you cry
keep me from being myself
because when I'm with you
there is no such thing as I

Say...

Say you can't
be there...

so that I can
prepare myself to step alone

so that I know
no one has my back

so that I see
that I belong so

Say you can't,
and I can't
frown

Say you can't
and I will be alright

Wreckage in the Past

It feels like I'm constantly swerving,
trying to avoid the wreckage ahead
of the past problems
that just keep leaving the rear-view
to appear ahead

Frustrated with jitters
from excitement of lack of sleep
that left me so overtired
that I can't fall asleep
but I'm full of fatigue

It feel like an earthquake
inside my heart
why is everything falling apart
maybe we should be apart
and head straight for all the wreckage
we kept trying to leave in the past

When falling no longer feel so...

not sure when One started to descend
it must have been a long time
for One feels like he's on solid ground
