Poems from Wonderland

[ Bewitched ]

Quoth me forevermore,
Steal this whimsical soul,
Thy touch is poison,
Divine and everlasting,
Devour mine heart,
Thee who ruins me.

I shall bow to thee,
Mine beauteous tormentor,
Thy ways are infectious,
Give salvation unto me.
Capture me with words,
Thee who owns me.

This face I seek,
A tool to entrance me,
I give myself to thee,
Endlessly and willingly.
Touch thy lips to mine,
Give me eternity.
 
[ Beloved ]

Oh, humble betrayer!
Take thine life from your heart!
Embrace my bleeding wounds,
And take my broken dreams.
Reach outward towards the false Heaven,
That calls out to thee.
I am your faithful Sin.
Drink from my ethereal nightmare,
And give yourself to Hell.
 
[Cherish The Fallen]

Thy tomb is a heavenly sanctum,
Thy voice a vow of angels.
You look upon the setting starlight,
An expression of solitude so profound,
I fear you will be lost to the ethereal darkness.
Will you take me onto your heart?
Thee who is so lost and innocent.
Bring into your embrace,
Allow me to steal thy secrets.
I will cherish your forsaking soul,
As your eyes speak of poison,
Only rivaled by your love.
 
[Enigma Of Clarity]

Dreaming, dreaming, wondering, fearing,
That my life will surely be falsified by light.
I claim not madness, only surety, that to perish is to live.
Can we then claim prosperity?
I fear my soul will be forsaken by darkness,
Yet darkness is where the damned lie.
How then can I be saved?
There is no answer to an endless riddle,
Only then can I ensure my survival,
If I allow the plague to descend upon me.
Take my mind, oh darkness of light,
My dreams are not my own.
 
[The Snake Charmer]

Could it be that my fevered brain changed your story?
Or was it the madness brought about by uncertainty?
I find my youth was the cause of the chaos wrought by your words,
For I was too young and disheartened to listen proper.
You devoured my psyche with your mouth opened wide,
Telling me in whispered hymns that I was to be better.
Yet, I recall every intimate detail like a nursery rhyme etched deep,
For you, my wretched love, were but the demon in my ear.
I review those words even now,
Yet I recall the lucid reasoning.
Snake charmer of young lovers' hearts,
I beseeched you to leave this one unscathed.
Yet, you could not stop the song of illusions.
Oh, broken thing you left me as,
I recovered in the darkness- Oh, humble darkness!
I stitched myself like a battered doll,
To live a life untethered by your deceitful lips.
 
The corners of my eyes ache and strain
Trying to hold back emotion
Like a tidal wave waiting to hit the shoreline
It's the moon trying to blot out the stars
Or the Sun trying not to scorch the earth
There is a barrier
Of exhaustion and love
Caressing the mind to soothe the soul
And soon my eyes close
And the wave crashes down
 
[Papa]

I'm going to that place again
I hope to clear my mind
The walls are too bright in here
The linens are much too white
This place smells of sterility
I can't seem to get out

Yet there he is
The broken angel
The guardian of my life
He tries to speak but cannot
The words have been stolen
But his eyes tell everything

They try to make him comfortable
The workers of supposed miracles
They check his ticking time bomb
They listen to his labored stopwatch
But all I can see are his eyes
Those eyes full of love

His mind is now a prison
His body can hardly move
But those eyes are everything
They say all that he cannot
I tell him softly that I love him
He gives me a beautiful smile

His days are numbered now
I can only grasp memories
I try not to think of the too bright walls
Or of the too white linens
Or the choking smell of sterility
Because he is with me
And he means everything
 
[Handsome Old Man]

I was supposed to wear all white
With you in your tuxedo
We were supposed to go hand-in-hand
And you would call me beautiful

We were supposed to go arm-in-arm
As you smiled with all your charm
But I cannot reach you now
The promise is now gone

I remember when I was little
The sun was shining so bright
When we went for a walk down the street
And bathed in the morning light

We talked about silly things
We talked about nothing at all
And then I asked you something
And you promised with your all

I wanted you to walk me down the aisle
I wanted you at my side
Because you've been there all my life
You helped to make me strong

I watched you slip away
I wanted you not to go
I would have given anything
In order to have you stay

But now the leaves are changing colors
The seasons never last
And now I say goodbye
To my handsome old man
Who always made me laugh
 
Tends to happen when you go to bed early... you wake up early. >.<
But even still, very vivid and heartfelt. Sad, yes, but nonetheless amazingly written.
*more hugs*
 
How am I supposed to breathe?
With you standing there in front of me
Taking away what I used to be

I'm dying slowly from a kiss
The whispered words on your lips
Killing every part of me

You're draining me dry
With the softest of sighs
As you touch my skin

How can I escape you?
These chains of lust bind me
I can't break free

So take this life from me
That keeps me separate
From the wholeness of unity
 
Gossamer chains wrapped about linens of ice,
These poisons are toxic but taste so nice,
Come hold me in your caustic love,
And dream a dream of darkness above.

Break the never-ending circle,
Forge a locket of secrets,
This is the dawning of an era,
Time is the only forever.

So open your mind,
And see what's inside,
You can't keep believing,
That you are still dreaming.

This destiny dies,
Inflamed by lies,
Come watch the Sun cry,
As Heaven sings Good Bye.
 
Feels like a thousand years today since I first met you,
Seems like time has gone faster than a hummingbird's wings,
And I have found myself falling behind again.
I can't seem to shake this feeling of falling.

The seasons change so quickly,
I find that I can't keep up.
Wait for me, love, I'm calling,
And keep me from remembering.

We've been on a roller coaster ride,
Fallen like an airplane from the sky,
Burst into a million shards of firelight,
And fell into a rainbow.

As I sit here on this rooftop,
Trying to find the beginning,
I close my eyes and smile,
I finally am believing.

Come find me, my dear love.
I'm waiting here for you.
It's been a thousand years of memories,
And I'm breathing away the days.
 
Twist the joints of a mother's love
Break the spine of a woman's heart
Rip the muscle from Aphrodite's soul
And shred what would have made us whole.

We are but endless ghosts
Walking amongst the dying living
Mouths agape at what we see
When it's only just a deadly sea

We falter under the sunlight
Waver under the torchlight
Fall into this barren rainbow
And crash into the darkness below
 
I stare at this reflective illusion
Wondering if it will crack
From the pressure of my gaze
The surface quivers
As if touched by invisible hands
I wonder how long it will stand
Before it bends into nothingness
I find my image to be a lie
For I see myself crouched
Hands in hair
Screaming the word why
As if it could give some solace
To the cut across my throat
Robbing me of words
As I beg inside
For some closure
To this internal suicide
 
I rip through this twilight with gun in hand
I won't give in to the silent command
I will tear apart this falsity
And take back every piece of me
You're a demon, a creature of deceit
I can't stand the way you look at me
So I will find what I have been looking for
A way to press your back against the wall
And find the strength to pull the trigger
So that I may end it all
 
It's another one of those days of living
Where it feels like you've taken a beating
In the ring with losing rounds
You can't seem to stand up
You keep getting shot back down
Take another pill to take up the silence
Close your eyes and drift into quiet
The nightmare of real life can't get you here
So shut off the light and disappear
 
Fragmented like the colors of a prism.
I clutch my soul to me like a lover.
As if to let go is to lose myself.
Oh, splintered heart!
Carry me forward into the unknown.
The hollow noise from my throat echoes
Inside the walls of my fractured mind.
Awaken thee, oh beautiful demon,
Salvage what is left of me.
 
If only these hands could touch this apparition that speaks through glass and circuits
We watch the changing gears of life and metal spiral onwards
The life we knew is turning into a battlefield of wires and chrome
So take these ghostly hands as we move towards home
The sun is but a radiation cloud spewing fire and ash
The moon is but a shadow of crystal and bone
Yet we are trapped forever on this barren wasteland
Where only the mechanisms can roam
 
And the Lunar Flower begs the Wolf for moonlight,
Craving the richness of a silent song to cleanse the earth.
Eyes bright with starlight, they seek out the forbidden.
Will they ever find their way to their heaven?
Running over the snow-drenched wasteland,
They run forever in the cold chill of reality.
Endless is the word of the moon,
How will they ever reach their goal?
As the flower bleeds and the moon cries,
Comrades and loved ones slowly die.
And as the last creature falls,
The Moon saves them all.
Open the gate to Paradise.
 
I'm running through the valley
In the shadows of my mind
Running from a memory
That will forever rewind

It plays over and over
Like a sad lullaby
I can't turn it off
I can only wonder why

My footsteps echo
As if locked in a cave
I only want to let go
And take back what I gave

The screams are silent
The cries are muted
I cannot stay in this place
I feel so uprooted

Winding down the spiral stairs
I feel the darkness eat the stars
I just wanted to forget
Now I can only remember
 
Orbs of blue and crystal
Fall down hills of porcelain
Black rivers flow across
The landscape now tainted
Red crosses with blue
But purple does not escape
Whispering winds flow
From pink valleys
With white precipices
Before the orbs disappear
Down a mountain of ivory

Wept did she
The heart-broken angel
Lips parted with soft sighs
As she took a breath
And murmured her goodbyes
Her heart was cracked
Her eyes bleeding
She looked to the sky
And slowly died
 
Take the knife- be sure it's sharp,
We have to make sure there won't be marks.
The ties need to be cut and chopped,
Hold that arm steady - only got one shot.

We take the ties that bind us,
To others that cause destruction,
And cut them into pieces,
So they won't reform again.

It hurts like a knife in the back,
Like a bullet to your throat,
Twisting and tearing,
Gasping for air and choking on blood.

And then there is silence.
The kill has been made.
The numbness takes over.
And a grin remains.
 
Poisonous Illusion

Sew your lips shut with ribbons of hypocrisy.
I'm tired of the lies that you let slip through,
The rotting crevice of lips that were once so tender.
The buildings will crumble from your toxic voice.
Even the river can't cure the illness you embody.
So shut those seducing eyes before you're blinded,
By the way you look at yourself in the mirror.
It's like a crime scene unfolding when you smile,
Just waiting for a victim to cross your path.
Tie those wrists that steal the life from me,
Your touch can't drain out my will anymore.
I can still feel the acidity burning my eyes,
From the way I used to love you.
But how can you love an angel,
When they've been holding your lifeline,
In the shape of a knife against your spine.
