The Fallen

My latest piece... It's broken two of my records... one for the most amount of lines... (and being my longest poem), and being one of if not the most depressing thing I've ever written...

What can I say.... enjoy?

The shadows linger as the light fades away...

Never to see another day...

With Fate to laugh upon despair...

Empty love that is never there...

Walking earth I dwell alone...

Life is such a painful moan...

Darkness in lives... Darkness in deaths...

Darkness resides... as we drift through the depths...

Friendships are broken... Dreamers are lost...

Death to the fallen... no matter the cost...

Shattered and broken we fall to our doom...

A void of emptiness and gloom...

It is life for these people... people like me...

Never to face our destiny...

Forever trapped inside the shell...

Caught in wastelands of an endless hell...

The struggle we face lies deep within...

And the outer world corrupt with sin...

Up we look and watch for you...

The key for us to pass on through...

To a forgotten place... your wonderful life...

Void of our pain and void of our strife...

You bask in your glory as we drown in sorrow...

You embrace your today and we hope for tomorrow...

You rob our emotion... all we have left...

Is this void in our hearts... An ominous cleft...

I now know there is nothing to escape from this place...

Only hide this existence under the face...

Hidden from the world we know...

For it is only here that we can show...

The warmth I have in this dark hole...

As it plagues my mind and tortures my soul...

It may ruin my being day after day...

But now I realize that it is my way...

To have fallen this far... there is no way out...

Only a glimpse of a world without...

This void that has buried me inside my mind...

Maybe someday I’ll be able to find...

Not the key, or a door... but the answers I seek...

To the questions inside... of which I speak...

What is inside my fallen Dreams?

Is love really the way it seems?

What is my true Destiny...?

Will I find my Identity...?

Where exactly is my faith...?

Is it my mind where I am safe...?

So many questions... with nothing to find...

Just the emptiness inside my mind...

I feel my emptiness inside...

I’ve lost my dignity.. and lost my pride...

I’ve lost my Love... and my trust too...

I’ve lost my hope... and I’ve lost you...

What left do I have in this empty heart...?

Without a hope... I’ll fall apart...

Without a pride... I’ll have nothing to face...

Without a dignity I am a disgrace...

Without a Love I have less than before...

And Without you... nothing to Dream for...

I have nothing now inside my soul...

Just this void... this empty hole...

I look to you to live for tomorrow...

While I still have my guidance that you can still follow...

Do not turn around... don’t even look back...

For you have the promises that I’ll always lack...

You may feel my sorrow and for this you may wait...

As I hate to admit... your far too late...

Do not cry for me... for tears burn my face...

For Fallen am I to reach such a place...

Do not Dream for me for it will not come true...

For a Dreamer am I to craft thoughts of you...

Do not Love for me... for Love is a lie...

To rob me of your starlit sky...

Do not live for me... for you’ll see a new day...

For Death am I... to send you away...

To live your life as happiness declares...

Not to delve and fret in my sad affairs...

Never to stand tall once more...

Never to mend my broken core...

Never to embrace the warmth of love...

Never to finally rise above...
