Save me from this life Like you have done Many a time If i listen to our old songs, Will they summon you? If i scream them from the peak of my lungs Until they tire Until they burst And my throat scorched Will you come back?
Perhaps in pieces, your life has been an open window Or a poem, open for everyone's interpretation Or just the grey matter of the dead And the maggots are feasting And your toes are cold The snake's lies, how they got you here And humans never listens to me It's the lack of fear
I tried flying towards the sun, but it only made me fall. I miss the golden warmth it gave, the ocean makes me bawl. My skin is stung by salt, washing out my wounds. Is this the fault of fate, or not having any control? I just wanted a sunny stroll, but i guess im taking the toll.
Even though i don't understand, I've watched him love you hard.
I've felt Olympus shake and i've Created supernovas on his behalf, Steadied my arrows and called out to my galaxies- But, consistently, he quells me quiet and it's always then that i see it- The warrior he is demands he doesn't give up on a battle And Ares has been chasing Aphrodite too long to set a better example and i Hate to say it But it's alarmingly beautiful.
Father may have made a star, But that lionheart made you a sun.
I have long preached that perfection takes time, That my mother has a love so pure and perfect set aside for her, But her heart caught on you.
War is love and love is war - She has weathered battles in your name and each time i try to end the fight, Lay the final blow She quiets my furies With a hand on my chest and music in my ears.
Apollo has been chasing dawn too long to teach the lesson of patience, But you were her dawn and mornings aren't the same, anymore.
She sings songs of you at daybreak And i hum songs of war. She pretends she isn't missing her star. I try not to miss the sun.
The pitfalls and pendulums, Humans saying that indulging their cruelty Persecuting the heretics, was the will of The one true god. Was gods will, truly present? During these times of cruelty and persecution. Towards those who committed no less a crime, Than worshiping the god or gods of their region of the world. As inquisitors raped and pillaged the land in the name of god. As they torched and burned through the villages, Screaming burn the heretics, the whole way through. It seems humanity even in this day and age, Still, can persecute under false gods names. From the modern societies of man To third world places locked away. Humanity still, Kills in gods names.
Only gods could have built this city. The tall buildings do not make you small; They were built with the spirits of men And they build a fire within mine.
I feel as if I can shout as high as they, My words can carry their weight. I am empowered, My breath is fire.
The spirit of mankind is in this city, And it will only grow: It will fill every soul who looks toward sky And sees himself standing there.
Courtyard blessed with snake Gods Under the large plumeria tree With its yellowish white flowers Sitting there in the world of my imagination Conversing with the disparate designed snakes Came to visit their King with Queen God King was in golden colour with his head high Queen in her attic of red with black lines Wearing garlands of corn marigold flowers Offerings made by devotees Tender coconut, turmeric powder, Rice pudding with rice cake Blessing them pleased with their devotion Turned towards me to convey their heartfelt joy In furtherance of visiting their Kingdom with respect to nature Giving them a space with devotion in this nasty world
Our Media Gods with their All-Knowing Eyes Blinding our sight, pumping out lies Snow-filled screen set to hypnotize- Keeping us mesmerized By the pretty colors all flying by
Feeding us shit in saccharine splendor With its paper tiger prophets And consumer agenda Flaccid talk shows and 'Reality' TV- They're only showing what they want us to see
Sensationalism sells! And they gotta push pills! Trying to 'cure', or kill, or frighten away Any desire to go out and play- And why bother? It's safer inside, They tell us it's true! Now don't go anywhere, it's time for the News...
