Wind Vs. Paper

i have a story to write and a great deal to say.
but what does it matter, when all i have to say

is gibberish.

i lose myself in my self-righteous words,
laced with frills and brimming with grammatic arrogance.

all my words, all my thoughts,
they mean absolutely nothing
when all they do is speak of myself.

these empty words carry no weight
and i stare
as these words are blown away in the wind.

Without Vision

we swing and we rage
we stand and we cower
we scream and we whisper

warring, raging
screaming and laughing

at nothing and everything

we act immortal
while we’re dying

we survive on liquids that parch us
and foods that empty us

we swing and we miss.

we’re blind
and we’re dizzy

speaking peace and spitting hate
we are the shore’s waters
tossed and turned, spun and thrown

staggering, tripping
spinning and falling

we grasp at anything

but find nothing
and we wonder if all we are
is alone

thinking, reasoning
fearing and dying.

every time i see this song title,
watch the video
and listen to the lyrics,
all i can think of is Metal Gear.
La Li Lu Le Lo

Staring Uphill

There are things to fear
and things to hide

And where does it put me.

Where do i stand

When i stand in fear

Of all that surrounds me

how can i stand

When i knowingly ingest sickness

And hope to stand unharmed

Who am i

To think i am exempt

That i am immortal

i am no god

i am finite

i have a beginning

And i have an end

And my end comes

When i stand in pride

My beginning starts

When i bow down

Before You
