back-words... more old poetry...

I was sifting thru old email (circa '99 onward) and came across some works that I hadn't recorded elsewhere nor backed up to here. I know this is the first post in ages, but writing about all that has happened in this time will have to be set aside for one or more posts. Ironically, the reason I was even doing this has a little to do with why I was gone, however I was not expecting to find things to post!

going, going, gone

i reached out
into the darkness
and grabbed nothing.
now i have
what i didn't before...
i stared out
into the brightness
and went blind.
now i see
what i didn't before...
i stepped out
into the emptiness
and fate prevailed.
now i feel
what i didn't before...


unitled lyrics

gimme a dime i'll give you the time livin lovin as one
as separate beings individuals we face the world as
entities searching for that higher place searching for
the love we need gotta be gotta have oh that state of
mind the oneness the singularity of the two making a
whole we gotta take the time to realize to sympathize
to know the differences between what's right and
what's wrong we gotta be quick to decide gotta know
the answer can't make another mistake how ya learn the
lesson hard can be the killer and then you fade
away...
 
 
memories
 
memories, 
like autumn leaves, 
fall where they may 
into their place in time, 
only to be scattered and lost 
by whispers of age 
and hint of new colors 
to show 
on the tree of life...

back-words... more creative writing...

more creative writing...
ok it's been a while and i haven't written any poetry, but yesterday, some words popped in my head. it actually felt more like a song than a poem, which is really rare for me. i didn't get a chance to write it down and work with it while it was still fresh, but i thought i would get it down today while it's still haunting me. i would imagine this would go well with an alternative/industrial score, much like nin's current works... without further ado, here it is. i hope you like it.


you'll never see

i've been through a lot
sometimes you're all i've got
but you just don't care

you can stare and stare
but you will never see
what you mean to me

it'll make you want to scream
it'll never make you see
but you'll never be with me

i've have enough of your lies
i can see it in your eyes
no matter how i try to believe

it makes me want to scream
but you will never see
why you wont be with me

you can stare and stare
but you will never see
how mean you've been to me

it'll make you scream and cry
but you'll never see why
you'll never be with me

you refuse to see
just how cruel you are to me
it makes me want to die
