Demons

Slowly, so slowly, the mist parts.

A ray, just one, of sunshine comes through.

The sight clears, the sight once so fogged;

There is me, just me, and my demons in view.

Demons, of my past, and of my present,

And probably of my future too.

Every dark corner shows me another one.

Every lonesome corner, every solitary move.

And then at a corner, I turn and find,

Another soul, another one, a like mind.

The dew drops, like crystals shine brightly so,

This road is new, have I left all behind?

Suddenly my demons aren't the only ones

By my side, to take my hand, Oh, epiphany.
Suddenly, I have so much, so,so much more-
That my demons vanish- into the darkness that is me.

The serenity, the peace that I have found
In these souls so similar to mine,
So much to discuss, so much to converse,
So much to discover, so much to find.

Smiling is frequent, my days are now abuzzed.
My heart is lighter, a hope slowly usurps.
My demons, they are calmer, the noises have died down.
The sounds are sweeter, friendship now does chirp.

Finding someone with demons much like yours,
Simplifies life, a tension is sort of off.
Expectations, dreams aren't all that important now,
Together, we can play, praise, share and scoff.

Out of faith

Lets close our eyes, lets look inside;
Lets find what we've been searching for.
Let the world be, let the world spin.
Lets just leave, and never come back.

I closed my eyes, and let me fall;
I closed my eyes, to me and all.
I did me wrong, and did no good.
I lost myself,somewhere, alone.

There is no point, no point at all;
There is nothing left to probe.
There is maybe, a little warmth,
There should be, but I'm out of faith.

No faith, no hope, maybe some.
No there isn't, it's all undone.
No this isn't, this shouldn't be.
No,won't be right, not a bit.

Take it all, take it away,
Take my soul, as you did that day,
Take it again, don't bring it back.
Take everything-its soiled and sad.

Just let it be, just let it rest,
Just for this once, I can't take a chance.
Just someone,  anyone, just any plan.
Just I me myself, just this for a while.

What happened just did,redos aren't done.
What I did I did,can't undo my mistakes.
What will happen, I don't know, don't want to.
What is, is happening, will happen anyway.

Well, fuck you too.

The wounds are fresh, the tears still run.

My heart still burns away as the Sun.

Alone, in the dark, with fire inside me.

Away far away, with no one beside me.

I thought I'd gotten used to the hurt and the pain.

Impunity I'd thought,now I'd managed to gain.

But every cut burnt just as much.

Just as every slap, and every tender touch.

I gave up, I gave in, cowardice-I know.

I've had it, I cave in, can't take another low blow.

I did what I had to, I stood up for me.

I knew I just had to, for myself, and me.

With all of the heart ache, and strains and the sores,

I managed to find some shoulders to set shore,

I thought to myself, "Hey, this does seem nice"

And Life saw to it, that all them turned into lies.

One by one every rampart and support, 

Got up and left, or just watched me go.

I told my heart, once more, be strong, just hold on.

My heart but, it has let go, and I must move on.

Move on to a shore, move on to a new life,

One with less hurting, one with less strife.

I'll turn to this life, and wave all Adieu.

But before the final Goodbye, well, fuck you too.
