The Tree of Life; Knowledge

The leaves
Of knowledge
Fall from the tree
Of Life

I gather
Them up
And recreate
The impossible

Fallen
Discarded
Knowledge
The basis

Purest thought
In a form
So mundane
Yet found

The misuse
Of great
Knowledge
The downfall

And yet
We seek
For more
Expansion

But in all
There it lies
Barely known
Knowledge

Musician

The beauty
The sorrow
Conveyed through
with a single note
Inspiration

The pain
The serenity
Spoken without
a single word
Genius

The fear
The hope
Powered by
nothing but song
Amazement

The beginning
The end
Captured within
and spread without
Music

Erosion

Through aeons

it flows

a relentless river

of consciousness

With varying speeds

it flows

at times serene

at times violent

Yet onward

it flows

never ceasing

till the end

Yet through the end

it flows

not yet done

nor yet begun

Bind

The binds of life
so complex
misleading
yet so simple
all the same

Interconnected
Is what we are
Unknown
But still
Bound together

There is insanity
unraveling the ties
Breakdown
Yet always
Fitting together

Hatred and fear
False guides
Hunger
But in all
Somewhere truth

Hope and love
True mentors
Wisdom
Yet even there
Something evil

Then death
Some veil
Untouchable
The great crossing
But still life

Life and death
But blips in time
Infinitesimal
But fleeting
Though all we know

Unbreakable

The power
The feeling that
You can do
Whatever
You can
Possibly
Wish for

The helping
Of the helpless
The goodness
Of what you do
Touching others
Their lives yours
To do what you will

The corruption
Of absolute power
Finding your soul
At first you fight
But then
You decide
You quite like it

The rampage
From your soul
Unleashed
In its full glory
The terror
Of the helpless
Fuel

Unstoppable
You tear
Straight through
The earth
Just because
You can
Unbreakable

Insanity

I look out the door
Hall of mirrors spinning through
Monstrous reflections
Distorting reality

The mirrors seethe
I try to run
My feet are gone
The words "Death Warrant"
In their place

The reflections come alive
come out of the mirrors
Start their way
Toward me

Panic
Scream
Wake
Find nothing has changed
Well this sucks

I see the flesh
Falling from my hands
Then darkness
Then screams
I suppose that's me
Isn't it?

This strange feeling
That I should be dead
Only a lust
For human flesh
Keeps me alive

You might say zombie
I simply say insane
And you will run
As you truly aught

I have come to the end
My life truly done
Then in death
The same

Over again

Stricken
Insane
Anew

For That I Know It

I suppose
I would have thought
She was beautiful
If I had been able
To feel as such
The serenity
Of her expression
As I drained
Her Life-time
Away

The curse
Of Necromancy
To live
Off the Time
Of others
And see them
Fall
Into serenity
Or insanity
As they will

In this instant
That I know
This love
Is the most pure
And fleeting
Of my life
For
Because of it
I shall now die
For that I know it

My world was one
Of fear and war
Like Pandora's Box
But without the Hope
For I took hope
And changed it to fear
And all I knew
Was hatred
And anger
But no more

For now
I know love
As the purest
Of life-time
And I know
That I can take
No more
For love
Is too great
To kill for

I can only hope
They will
Remember
To love
When I'm Gone
