Verse #735

The shadows of the past dwell in the corners of your mind,
reminding you of days long gone and all you've left behind,
though memories are jaded and the past not what it seems,
you can't help reminiscing on those long forgotten dreams.

Renascentia

<blockquote><p><strong><em>Alabaster island in a sea of hate and doom,</em></strong><strong><em>Silver streak of lightning in the dark and dreary gloom,</em></strong><strong><em>Crimson rivers flowing to the cold and lonely ground, </em></strong><strong><em>Drifting fog of silence slowly creeping all around.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Empty voices whisper in the shadows of the night,Tunnels in the distance ending in unbroken light, </em></strong><strong><em>Hopes and fears receding into shapes before unseen,</em></strong><strong><em>Shifting thoughts of solace that at one time seemed unclean.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Rocky tracks sketched out across the alabaster shore, </em></strong><strong><em>Stormy seas have calmed now and lay silent ever more, </em></strong><strong><em>Shadows laid to rest within the warm forgiving ground, </em></strong><strong><em>Dreams take shape in sunlight as true peace at last is found. </em></strong></p>

Renascentia

Alabaster island in a sea of hate and doom,
Silver streak of lightning in the dark and dreary gloom,
Crimson rivers flowing to the cold and lonely ground,
Drifting fog of silence slowly creeping all around.

Empty voices whisper in the shadows of the night,Tunnels in the distance ending in unbroken light,
Hopes and fears receding into shapes before unseen,
Shifting thoughts of solace that at one time seemed unclean.

Rocky tracks sketched out across the alabaster shore,
Stormy seas have calmed now and lay silent ever more,
Shadows laid to rest within the warm forgiving ground,
Dreams take shape in sunlight as true peace at last is found.

Verse #733

Verse #726

The cleansing light of dawn can bring a clarity of thought,
a moment of reflection on the battles we have fought,
a time for each of us to find the truth that we all seek,
a chance to reconsider what was said before we speak.

Verse #725

We look towards the East to see another journey start,
the rising sun to warm our soul and cleanse our weary heart,
we travel to the West to seek the shadows of the light,
the setting sun to give way to the solace of the night.

Verse #724

We've walked together hand in hand,
through winter storm and summer sand,
our paths entwined towards the light,
two hearts combined through day and night.

Verse #723

Love is an enigma that no mortal man can solve,
a mystery our simple minds have no means to resolve,
a quest we all embark on at our destined point in time,
the only means by which our souls can truly ever climb.

Verse #722

If you could find an outlet that would keep you on your feet,
suppress your dark desires and the feeling of defeat,
would you pursue a cure that could destroy that precious art,
or would you keep on living through the bleeding of your heart?

Verse #721

We wake to find ourselves wrapped in the cold embrace of day,
besieged by snow on icy roads that strive to block our way,
yet still we battle on so we can work to earn our pay,
in hope the gods can hear the mumbled prayers we all say.

Verse #720

There is a darkness in his soul that faith still tries to light,
a sadness in his broken heart that love still tries to right,
a madness in his fractured mind that life still tries to fight,
these battles waging through each day with no endgame in sight.

Verse #719

We travel down this road called life with no end in our sight,
the scenes around us changing as we move towards the light,
the plans that we have made will set the landmarks on our way,
but only fate knows what will be when we conclude this day.

Daze Gone By

Each day is masked in deja vu,
the songs repeat their plays again,
an end that still seems far from view,
so much now lost for other's gain.

Each day a mirror of the last,
reflecting all she'll never find,
an endless fog just drifting past,
absorbing all she's left behind.

Each day rolls by from dawn to dusk,
consuming all she has to give,
a hollow and dejected husk,
without the time for her to live.

Verse #718

The population growing as we cultivate our seed,
the conflict ever showing as we battle for each need,
the spark no longer glowing as we dwell on hate and greed,
the death knell loud and slowing as our planet starts to bleed.

Verse #717

Sunlight warms his frozen skin,
love ignites the fires within,
hope gives him the strength to fight,
faith directs him to the light.

Verse #716

Bid farewell to shadows and the darkness of the deep,
let the light release you from the nightmares that you keep,
open up your heart to all this day has yet to give,
take this chance and let love show you what it means to live.

Verse #715

All that we have is not all that we are,
all that we feel has more value by far,
all that will be is not carved into stone,
all that we dream is to not die alone.

Verse #714

The ticking clock informs me that the time for rest is nigh,
alas I find no respite as the hours trickle by,
my eyes may well be weary but no dreams are close at hand,
and so I contemplate the stars and all that fate has planned.

Verse #713

I place my life safe in your hands,
your love within my heart,
our dreams combined on windswept sands, two souls that cannot part.
