Life Players

The games we play 'tween me and you,
defined by all we have been through,
our wants pervert each oath we make,
our needs defend each rule we break.

The nights we spend 'tween me and you,
desired by all we thought we knew,
our bodies locked in dark embrace,
our hearts abandoned in disgrace.

The words we say 'tween me and you,
defiled by all we feel and do,
our souls corrupted by each lie,
our dreams disrupted as we cry.

The life we share 'tween me and you,
defaced by all we hang on to,
our bond nought but a fantasy,
our love nothing but fallacy.

Verse #642

The games we play 'tween me and you,
defined by what we have been through,
for all we say and all we do,
in each new lie is something true.

Verse #641

Cold chill in the air around,
morning dew still on the ground,
sun as yet cannot be found,
autumn leaves the only sound.

Verse #640

The time is now- the die is cast,
the day is here- our chance at last,
we stand prepared- our weapons raised,
the battle joined- our gods be praised.

Verse #638

She looks back at the distant sky,
remembering the days gone by,
the lives she's shared and love she's known,
the things she's learnt and how she's grown.

Verse #637

When darkness overshadows all the good you've ever done,
when hope seems lost and faith falls short in what life has begun,
when doubt takes hold and days feels bleak without a sense of fun,
my love will find you once again just like the rising sun.

Verse #636

I've stood upon the cliff and stared into the rising sun,
I've watched as mother nature thrives and new life is begun,
I've seen the soul of man and all the wonders he can do,
and still the greatest sight I've seen is waking next to you.

Verse #635

Our lives are never balanced as the scales are all askew,
with trials and tribulations that we're ever working through,
we work to live and live to work in hopes of something new,
and sacrifice all that we love for what we have to do.

Samishii

The days grow ever shorter,
The nights forever long,
The shadows of the past return to sing their tortured song.

The past never forgotten,
The future bare and bleak,
The dream of love died suddenly in one ill-fated week.

The years a lonesome battle,
The pain too much to bear,
The road has brought him to a place that no one else can share.

The further he has travelled,
The more he's felt the loss,
The guilt a cold reminder each time he sees a cross.

The time now fast approaching,
The journey near its end,
The damage far beyond the realms of hope or faith to mend.

The panic slowly fading,
The cut is warm and deep,
The voices calling out to him to close his eyes and sleep.

The final pages turning,
The ending almost sweet,
The darkness brings him peace at last upon that silent street.

Verse #634

Together we will stand and together will we fall,
our lives now joined as one in answer to love's call,
united we will be against the world and all its hate,
our souls entwined forever more to share our given fate.

Verse #633

These precious moments that we share,
curled up and safe without a care,
just wishing that the clock would slow,
or stop so I'd not have to go.

Love Elucidation

Love is born and starts to grow,
Beyond all ways our hearts could know,
Though times may change and youth may go,
True love shines now and ever so.

Love is blind and without fear,
Beyond all doubt and ever dear,
Though hard to see it's ever near,
In every smile and each warm tear.

Love is deeper than the sea,
Beyond all realms that we could see,
The force that binds and sets us free,
Reserved for those like you and me.

Verse #632

The ones we love stay in our heart,
no matter what life puts us through,
though fate may cause our paths to part,
it cannot stop me loving you.

Verse #631

Darkened skies across in her mind,
this cloak of shadows leaves her blind,
alone and lost amongst her kind,
the light love so hard to find.

Verse #630

The future lies in front of you for all the world to see,
your chance to make your mark in life and be all you can be,
so take a stand against the hate and never let love flee,
and in the end when all is done your soul will be set free.

Verse #629

Freedom is not free and is not won without a fight,
love is but a privilege and not a given right,
peace is not a state in which our species can exist,
hope is but a dream that our poor hearts cannot resist.

Hikari

She has no fear of monsters,
That dwell beneath her bed,
Nor all the other creatures,
That haunt her fragile head.

She has no sense of danger,
To tell her when to stop,
Not shy of any stranger,
That life may chance to drop.

She has no thought of weakness,
To block this show of force,
Nor will she let the darkness,
Divert her from her course.

Verse #628

Life will bend and break you as it orchestrates your fall,
love will never find you if fail to hear it's call,
hope will up and leave you if your faith should ever stall,
only you can fight this war and stand to claim it all.

Verse #627

It seems this world's insanity,
and all of this profanity,
despite all positivity,
are just facts of reality.

Verse #626

Stand tall before eternity with all you have to give,
take stock of your own destiny so you can learn to live,
break free from cold obscurity through all you have achieved,
give thanks in true humility for all you have received.

Forever Darkly

Though sunshine floats above her head and warms her loving kin,
this cold chill ever stays with her deep down beneath her skin,
their smiles and cheerful laughter seem beyond her mortal reach,
this darkness eating at her heart has harsher things to teach. 

Though fate has often kept her from the hardships of her kind,
her path has long been plagued by tears for those she left behind,
the love she's felt is transient and changes with the tide,
this fear however stays with her forever at her side.

Though stars have tried to light her way through all those lonely times,
the shadows still call out to her and panic ever climbs,
these thoughts are always present keeping her in their control,
this sorrow ever fills her mind and drains her weary soul.

Verse #625

Hope is everlasting in all that we could desire,
faith is our salvation from the threat of hell's dark fire,
love is ever changing but forever is it true,
life is for the living and a gift for me and you.

Verse #624

Though it may have been the summer of our nation's discontent,
the autumn that has followed is not one we should resent,
for soon the winter chill will give all us cause to repent,
and in the spring our hearts at last may show their true intent.

Verse #623

Give life to all your dreams through all the love inside your heart,
take charge of all you are to give yourself a brand new start,
look back on where you've been to find the way for you to go,
with faith and hope your future will begin before you know.

Verse #622

Love is but a mystery,
the muse of ancient history,
defined by myth and fantasy,
to bring both pain and ecstasy.

Verse #621

Encumbered by this simple thought that every second counts,
in every moment that you waste the pressure simply mounts,
the clock forever taking back each second that you’ve saved,
as life prevents you reaching for the peace you’ve always craved.

Verse #620

Time is ever moving- like ripples in a stream,
each moment quickly fading- like memories from a dream,
we fight to keep the order- some semblance of control,
but time will soon betray us- and lay claim to our soul.

Verse #619

Just leave the pain and hurt behind,
a new world waits for us to find,
our time to claim all we’ve been sold,
before our hopes and dreams go cold.
