The moment god refuses to talk to you, the feeling of life begins to flow from your veins. Hero's of the time will not free you, their words will fall on deaf ears. Smashing the bones of the forgotten against the walls of tyranny. 
       What is hope but the light of a flickering star from some distant place. The grip of madmen only hold sway so long. The darkness from within grows steady as it beats you down. But the truth comes to you in a song, or something lost and known. Calling you back home! The thoughts you were facing mean nothing now! Darkness is on us now, cold and unfeeling. Covering us, but the light of a new day is calling come OUT AND BE FREE!!!!!!!!!!!

Random thoughts woven yet so clear

Endlessly feeding impulses only I can hear

Leaving my pain upon the kitchen table
Will surely now my images enable
As if my mind is a channel on cable

I so want to be a bird in flight
And soar effortlessly into the night

Yet under the midnight sky I pace
Unsure of my destination or my place
With mornings light my heart will race

As once again I'm consumed with fear
That no one holds my spirit near

Too tired and busy is the ensuing claim
To stop, share, and enjoy this moment's frame

With passing days memories flood like heavy rain
Distorted by emotion and time, am I still sane

Weary and begrudgingly to my grave I'll go
clutching a note saying "I loved you all I just wanted you to know!"
