End
Twisting strands of what could have beenThis life is but a balancing beamOne misstep and down you tumbleBroken neck for your trouble Wish upon a shooting starJust don’t expect it gets you farAs one wrong move begins to spiralSay goodbye to your survival Clasping hands for a futureDo you really want a sutureEmpty tones screamContinue reading “End”
Words From A Simple King
Faceless gods make shallow claimsThis daily fix of fear and shameAnother shot to the hope of dreamsNow lay to rest all that remainsA battered shore that once was homeRuined lives vultures feast uponCloudy skies of a future diesWish upon your stolen cries Honest liars speak too muchThe norm has become a crutchAs the drug wormsContinue reading “Words From A Simple King”

A chasm between us twoNo way of seeing youEyes lost to the voidAnother day feeling annoyedSearching for a wayTo see you stand before meDream i still cling toViolence took me from youShattered days burn awayAnother bottle might end this day Eternity keeps us apartLife is without lightBones hollowed by timeThere is no happy endingFairy talesContinue reading “Mountaintop”
Warrior
Axe and boneWe fight for homeRaise the flagLets take the land Arrows and fireAn old desireBlow the hornInward we come Armour and bloodHere comes the floodWe still riseAs the river cries Peace and warThere is no moreStrive for lifeIn comes the knife Sword and shieldWe are revealedShips of ashAscendent wrath
