Wow I really enjoyed that one. To me it conveys a lot about personal responsibility. Good job mon ami.

I am merely mortal man
My soul doth seem to cry
And the curse of being merely mortal
Is that mortal man must die.

Fain would I defeat that death
Hurl insults at my fate
And live at least ten thousand years
Before knocking on heaven's gate.

Though God's will perchance is not my own
My innermost being doth know
That when my life comes to an end
I am free. I have my soul.

And should my life be filled with pain
'Ere death agonies come at last,
The blessing of being merely mortal
Is in the end, this too shall pass.


Written in my dark teenage days.
Keep smiling!

I know I am like a ghost from the past to you all. My life took a turn and i had to focus on other things for awhile. For those that know me, just know I am ok and I will be active again. For those who don't, relax I don't bite.

Well hard anyways.

Well here is the first one. My style has changed a bit, maybe for just this poem. But I'll let you be the judge.


-Aza

Stayed

All the things that you hear
Yet still you are near
Beside me

All the things I've done
Yet you have won
To be beside me

All the pain you have felt
But yet you have dealt
With you still beside me

Just to let you know
My love for you still grows

Everything that they have said
But still you stayed
With me

Dark Eyes Blind

Dark
Darkness
Darknesses
Not necessarily
Darkest shapes pull you in
Until there's nothing
But darkness
Darkness

Eyes
Eyes sore
Eyes so sorry
Nothing can be seen
Eyes alone with your thoughts
And there's nothing
But darkness
Darkness

Blind
Blinded
Blind man's bluff
There is no darkness
Blind is just nothing for you
Blind is just nothing
But darkness
Darkness

Really great poems all. Life had really gotten busy and its hard to get involved in the creativity when you have distractions.

So i bring you something I've never posted on here. I might start up again i just don't know.

Response


Time I looked into the mirror
see this drawing nearer
Nothing has ever been more clearer
Then the rush of the coming river.

Can't just stand and hang our heads
still living though, we act dead
words can't explain what I've said
A reponse is needed instead.
Throw away all of the lies
get rid of the posion thats inside
For once just open our eyes
and see the destruction of our ties

It's time we looked in
find the center of our within
The true nature we must begin
Receive the pennance for our sins

Can't just stand and hang our heads
still living though, we act dead
words can't explain what I've said
A reponse is needed instead.
Throw away all of the lies
get rid of the posion thats inside
For once just open our eyes
and see the destruction of our pride

We need to wake from this sleep
Rise though we still may be weak
Make promises that we keep
Dig through it though it may be deep

Can't just stand and hang our heads
still living though, we act dead
words can't explain what I've said
A reponse is needed instead.
Throw away all of the lies
get rid of the posion thats inside
For once just open our eyes
and see the destruction of our lives

It grows, builds and thrives
People, of the earth
Nations, cultures, us...
Proving, what we're worth

Industry and science
Societies advance
Humanity is growing
We have a fighting chance

Technology develops
Medicines are curing
We win against disease
Our spirits all-enduring

Advancement takes our lives
Our species at its peak
And now, we have it all
And havoc shall we wreak

Cultures are divided
Lines between the colors
Hating one another
No longer brothers

Countries waging war
Blinded by their gods
Little soldier boys
Die for their facades

Bloodshed worldwide
Murdering for peace
Liberty is deadly
Fear the freeing beast

Marching on your ground
Liberating you
Without us helping out..
What else would you do?

Tensions escalate
Nations gearing up
World's up for grabs
Humanity corrupts

Lands are claimed by bombs
Advancements start to crumble
As war goes on and on
The world's left in rubble

As lives fade by the millions
The earth falls deathly silent
Humanity, once promising...
They came... And they went

Science and compassion
A species once astounding
Has vanished from the earth
Their efforts all rebounding

A rock of wasted ruin
Such hope we could have had
But we destroyed ourselves
Its really very sad...

Prosperity we gained
We had it all along
And now.. Here we are..

Where did we go wrong?

I just wanted to share a short poem, that is a bit dark. I will try to write more but as you know chaos is hard to manage


Dark Delights

Up turned eyes that scan the sky
Searching for something alive
When they spot such dark delights
Their screams shall end in the bitter night

Lives destroyed and not reborn
Souls captured and torn
And at the end of those dark delights
It shall end with the bitter night

-Aza

a reply to: Azathoth

I am so glad that you returned to/revived this thread or that I found it, rather, by it being 'bumped'.

I have, truly, enjoyed it.

Feeling dark, lately, myself. I think that exploring in the dark really makes us appreciate the light. At least I hope that is how it works.



Thanks again for the thread.

Once again after a long hiatus i find myself staring at some of my writings and seeing that there is another i can add.

Everyone is feeling this one as we are in a new era. We have had to separate ourselves to keep those who are vulnerable safe, as well as each other. I wrote this a month ago I think.

Control

Once started, there is no going back
One final charge, for the final attack
We cannot win this, we never will
Trading lives for the mighty dollar bill

Though you needed, you never heeded
What was sent to you?
This message will last, even in the past
It is in your hands so now what will you do?

There is no Control

Still it starts to quicken, the pace is ever so fast
Lives are crying, wishing to last
The bodies are piling, growing ever still
If no one will save them, who will?

Though you needed, you never heeded
What was sent to you?
This message will last, even in the past
It is in your hands so now what will you do?

There is no Control

So now here we are, ready for the fight
Digging in, we will not go into that night
Maybe then one day, I hope we will
Realize how connected we are still.

Though you needed, you never heeded
What was sent to you?
This message will last, even in the past
It is in your hands so now what will you do?

There is no Control

Greetings fellow dark dwellers,

I wrote something else. It is about a great many things and us as beings needing to wake up and control ourselves.

From the Dark

Something you cannot ignore and something to fear
Its claws already have you and drawing is you near
All in your hands now on what you will do
Its power is completely reliant on you.

Something here is not ordinary, crawling from the dark you better be ready
It is not going to let you go
Tugging on you already, better make a choice before your buried
This is more than something you know

You have felt it pulling and know it is real
The pain, the pressure and all that you feel
Hauling you closer, to take you down
Need to step back and take a look around

Something here is not ordinary, its crawling from the dark better be ready
It is not going to let you go
Tugging on you already, better make a choice before your buried
This is more than something you show

Now that you have felt it and know what you do
The pressure, the pain is all now on you
Will you give in or decide to get out
Do not go quietly so fight, scream and shout

Something here is not ordinary, crawling from the dark you better be ready
It is not going to let you go
Tugging on you already, better make a choice before your buried
This is more than something you know
