Lighting candles in the hall
Hoping for someone's call
It's the same every night
Sitting on my couch, clutching my head tight

What did I abandon?
Cast aside, completely forgotten
Who is to blame?
Those who lost or won the game

My eyes in the mirror tell me things I won't believe
Hopelessly here, waiting for a light to receive
Memories flash in my mind
Something I searched for, I never liked to find

What did I abandon?
Cast aside, completely forgotten
Who is to blame?
Those who lost or played the game

Dismiss these things that cause me pain
Destroy the obstacles that stand in my way
Let me crumble before your feet
So that you may understand whom you did defeat

Let me run into the distance, far over there
Far away, to God knows where

What did I abandon?
Cast aside, completely forgotten
Who is to blame?
Those who lost or played the game

Take these things away from me
Strip me bare, contain what you see
Burn me down so that my ashes float in the winds
Silence this all, for it seems I have sinned

AliveYou are alive
Sweat drips off your forehead
everything around you is lost
you're dedicated to this one task
you feel victory is within grasp
almost there, you can taste it, already imagining conquest
shatter, break, tear, explode, lost yet again
you get up again, but the pain brings you back down
you close your eyes, silently cursing the world's workings
and slowly fade down into hands that bring a silent hush over the scene
you fall through holes only to land feet first for the next dreaded challenge
you are alive.Alive by ~SaifGuard

Ghost's PenI can see the ghosts conducting their individual boats like flies
Hovering frantically over a mound of garbage
Unsure where to settle and take a look down beneath the surface
They wipe their eyes of their tears but the salty liquid could never wash their hands of the ink from sin's pen
Ghosts sharing pain blow their boats' horns searching for some kindred spirit wailing that same haunting tune that brings shivers to the spine
Each note riddled with the soft ghastly undertones of shadow and wisp
Boats floating noiselessly into obscurity
Each ghost like forgotten memories drowned in the abyss of the endless horizon

StartThe horizon seemed way too close. Like I could swim to it from here following the flow of the slow easy ripples on the dock. The ships just floating there telling me to steal one away and let the wind carry me into the swallowing darkness of the setting sun. An obnoxious punctual light that announces its departure.
For me, the artificial lights are fine. I can turn them on or off on command. I can block them out with my hands. A man in the dark is an assassin but in the light he is a business man. He has a family and weaknesses. Light revealing flaws as it were. A world without light is my world. I would blend right in, hiding in the shadowStart by ~SaifGuard

FlowEndless ripples reaching towards the horizon like so many agitations aimlessly hunting perfection. A ghost's presence like a widow's glance over her shoulder at a distant past. Lights lining a highway with one bulb turned out in the many. A face without eyes a body with no soul. Incomplete smiles.

Like a constant swirl fighting and crashing over. Oil and water filling a pool, a violent shake then a quick separation. A stone skipping across this liquid mixture, 1, 2, 3, 4 then consumed. As the stone plummets to the bottom, bubbles drift to the surface like layers of a life passing and revealing the finale. Stone.Flow by ~SaifGuard
