Forever forgotten

July 23, 2020 PenAndPaperStoriesblog

Light of day never faltersOr hangs in the balanceOf hatred or romanceBut what was…And the slip of the decayIs of consequenceNot of usBut what may.So to marchAnd live onLike the poetUntil it’s gone.

Sacrifice

For tonightDancing upon the graveTeach the lifeAnd sacrifice I gave.The living may not knowAs We lay dyingThe clarity nowBlocked by their crying.Oh the rageAs seeds are laidNever mind the needOr price I paid.And You will knowToo little too lateJust like usThis is your fate.

Mortal Pain

March 22, 2019 PenAndPaperStoriesblog

Every step was counted As tears were dried And sobs were silenced... Sorrow was left to song Hope was left in prayer And faith closed in scriptures... Speeding was the time Stopped were the answers And reason in oblivion... Stepping off the mortal ledge How and why were wondered And lost was all he knew...… Continue reading Mortal Pain

Beginning to End

October 18, 2017 PenAndPaperStoriesblog

There was a heartbeat  Guiding steps along linen walls Almost a guide And a fault to the end. Whispers loud Machines comforted chaos To the grasp of life And perseverance of death. Until peace became music Misery’s parade done and over For one then But never for all. And then the years Like all other… Continue reading Beginning to End

Coming Home

June 29, 2017 PenAndPaperStoriesblog

Coming home Through fractured rays Quite the journey  Is the end of our days. But through the veil Life has only begun Precious steps After a mortal run.
