See You Soon Lily

The rain comes with dark clouds and lightning with thunder,
but it also grows the earth beneath.
Flowers flourish and trees shelter you from the sun.

Fall and winter kills the grass and all things living,
but they aren't really dead.
She always came back next spring.

Solid and rigid metal can hurt a person,
but it helps you cut things down for new things to grow.
Only that day, its purpose was not the latter.

Your voice brought joy and happiness,
but now it only brings me pain.
I see you bleeding from that sharp metal.

Vases of flowers brightened up the room,
only now they wither quickly.
There is a rope hanging heavy right next to it.

Everything, everything, for all things once good and happiness,
they only bring me pain and misery.
They blame me over and over again.

Sleep. Sleep is supposed to give me rest,
but it made me see you hanging from that ceiling.
Over and over and over again.

I could not even hear everyone else anymore,
calling me to see if I was still here.
My voice never answered.

And later I could not answer, even if I wanted to

You Can Never Be Replaced

Why did I let you get away
away, away to no man's land.
So far away, I could not hear you anymore,
nothing but the wariness of your voice
before you left.
Nothing nothing can ever replace this
feeling of peace.
As I sit here and wonder when you
will return. When will everyone return?
To their homes, to their families and friends?

When will you return?

I see through your eyes, the blood on your hands.
Your own and someone else's.
The eyes of the enemy you looked down,
down, down as the pupils went wide.
Many mounds of bodies later you crossed
to the other side.
Was there sunlight? Was there feeling of calmness?
No you said, there was only death. But yet no remorse.
Courage consumed you, it inspired others around you.

I can't let them die in vain

Badger, don't forget about him

So you keep going back to the valley of death,
but on your back you carry the thoughts of your family
and friends. Those who you could not save.

Those who died in your arms

And so days went by, none heard of your,
your, your voice for many days.
Why did I let you get away?
But I could not hold you back,
for the pride to defend held strong.
That very thing needed so others can soon live free,

And no one has to suffer in pain anymore

Deprived of sleep, the Monolith spoke to me

Deprived of sleep, the Monolith spoke to me,
all dizzy and in fear, I felt the word creep.
Without thought, no, not without thought.

I felt like I could dance, it enveloped my soul,
felt no air breathing in, but my lungs were fed.
Deprived of sleep, the Monolith spoke to me.

No tenderness, but bitter and blood in my mouth,
I felt free in my own being, but lost without your words.
Without thought, no, not without thought.

So I ask again, please hold my hand,
you gave me the will I never had.
Deprived of sleep, the Monolith spoke to me.

Nothing but cold to the skin,
but I know you will whisper again to my ear.
Without thought, no, not without thought.

When will you cradle my brain,
as I continue to cower in loneliness and emptiness.
Deprived of sleep, the Monolith spoke to me.
Without thought, no, not without thought.

All The Dead Friends Still Spoke

I can't stop crawling back into your mind,
Many dead people written day and night.
My words voiced chaos but they were all still lined.

Write down those days like they were assigned,
Those days before were all still bright.
I can't stop crawling back into  your mind.

Death so common now, all so twined,
No goodbyes said, their words inside the bombsight.
My words voiced chaos but they were all still lined.

All signs of peace explodes in those mines,
My eyes could not run, but they saw in sight.
I can't stop crawling back into your mind.

The eyes still saw, but it was like it was blind,
Sense of feeling and movement all in a fright.
My words voiced chaos but they were all still lined.

Days go by, were they all left behind?
No they all flew around in my mind with great height.
I can't stop crawling back into your mind,
My words voiced chaos but they were all still lined.

I Do Not Know

My brain makes a buzzing sound,
and it does not stop stop.
My heart beats 120,
and it keeps pumping blood blood.
Nothing stops for the soul of the lost.

I panic, O' panic,
it does not stop, ever stop.
Nothing ever stops for the broken,
but does it ever stop for anyone?
My hands rattle and they shake,

as I start to hear the voices of the dead.

Hard for me to breathe I cannot breathe
I I I cannot see where is everyone
All of this felt strange I cannot see
and my muscles seized it hurts
I I could not feel My bones hurt

My hands were in "crab claws",
the fingers folded, and I could not move them.
They felt cold to my own touch, my hands,
like ice they could break at any moment.
Skin all pale now, felt invisible needles everywhere.

Breathe in...in? And out,
no no there goes the light.
I feel myself slip away,
felt no air in my lungs.
And in a blink of an eye,

I am now gone

Nature of War Unforgiving

Cold ice pricks my skin as I walk

Abundance of iron on my tongue

The air was harrowing with death and despair

And yet, I walked and walked and walked, to try and live

 

Very loud and loud, with a bang

Everyone’s ears bled, but you couldn’t sit around

You must walk and walk and walk

Only then can you see the other end of the tunnel

Monolith, where have you gone?

 I heard the voice who used to speak,

slowly fading…fading away.

The vast emptiness was cold

and made me grow weak.

 

Without hearing the words,

I was only an empty husk.

Mindlessly wandering around the empty land,

Where the trees were bare but with rotting birds.

 

No sound…sound, my eyes grew blind,

the voice I heard left me all twisted and twined.
