Swept Away

When darkness engulfs the stars
that seemed to have died too soon,
I'll cast my rope into the sea
and ripple the reflection of the moon.
Suddenly shrouded in secrecy
A battle of fronteirs unmanned
The fallen frail of ages past
who never knew the battle plan.
The tide will not remember
whom it drags to the deep
it is only those who gave their all
and remembered their promise to keep
The stars will shine again
the water shall rise too
Gravity pulls her to earth
Only the tide remains true.

amor vincent omnia...

Blank Cardhouse

She doesn't know it yet
but she's where I'll end up
the game of love only waits
until you've placed your bet
The ever present blank face
that haunts my dreams
the voice that sings
and the scent I can almost taste

So here I sit and long
in a cardhouse of dreams
The queen never present
that sings my heart's song
Until the bridge is gapped
of love and reality
I will sit here on my own
like a present still wrapped.

Torn

To whisper, to wait
To love, to hate
Scattered
I'm blown about
To destroy, to stay
to die, to play
Fragile
my heart still beats
for unloved, for her
for love, of her
Hopeful
A passing gaze

Closer Faces

Divided, I stand
the lines on my paper
offer no room to breathe
as to which choice is safer
The longest known
or the new facination
while my heart is drawn
to far off destinations
Severed, there is no answer
staring at closer faces
covered by my guilt
a veil of my heart's laces
I'm safer alone
than out in the game
torn in two parts
never to be the same

Avoid All Eyes

Avoid all eyes
they will never know
strike a match in memory
watch it burn as it dies
Wave your goodbyes
to the cheering crowds
you've faked them all before
and sold them on your lies
So stop trying to deny
these things your tried to hide
find another to confide
and always avoid all eyes
