A glimpse into my past. The first one was for an assignment. The other pieces I wrote for events that occurred. I have to admit that these aren't very positive and joyful... but they have a lot of meaning.
the soldier.,
birthed by fate
grew with faith
raised with might
lived with pride
life was joyful and clear
there was no fear
living day by day
love didn’t seem to fade
surrounded by simplicity
struggled with reality
drowned in ignorance
yearned for chance
pierced by burning rage
lashed out by betrayal
wounded by power
scarred the world
fought through ache
after freedom, we chased
burdened by expectations
‘til death or nothing
you win some, you lose some.
surrounded by love, i thought i was in luck.
now seeing it clearly, it just sucks.
i cant look at you in the eye.
i cant look at you in the eye.
no one can begin to apologise.
because this pain, is one of a kind.
because this pain, is one of a kind.
nothing you say can change my mind.
i had no idea you felt this way.
i had no idea you felt this way.
but didnt you ever felt the need to say?
what hateful sin have a put upon you?
what hateful sin have a put upon you?
for you, for so long, to act so cruel?
i look back at our memories.
i look back at our memories.
the act, the horror, i just cant believe.
i cannot believe how incredible you are.
i cannot believe how incredible you are.
with skills like that, you deserve to be a rotten star.
just the sound of your voice now
just the sound of your voice now
makes my ears feel fowl.
your presence near mine
your presence near mine
makes it near impossible to feel fine.
but im cutting you off, making it right
but im cutting you off, making it right
away from my mind, away from my life.
im not angry, upset or sad anymore
im not angry, upset or sad anymore
thats only to people i care for.
dear heaven.,
dear heaven
open your gates wide
dear heaven
welcome this friend of mine
if they arent here with me
i want them to rest
in the world of peace
in the place of happiness
i dont think time can heal this loss
i’ve never shed a tear for you
captured by the voice
i knew from the first sight of you
i dont think time can heal this loss
so why not celebrate what’s been
though if i could, at any cost
i would go back and change what happened
i’ve never shed a tear for you
until this very instant
when i’ve finally taken in the truth
that you indeed, are very distant
but you will never escape my memories
but you will never escape my memories
you will never be forgotten
you are always with me
forever, my dearest friend
an unfortunate attraction.,
captured by the voice
imprisoned by the music
a forceful choice
i couldnt defy it
i knew from the first sight of you
we would fall into temptation
i knew we would lose
an unfortunate attraction
those lyrics still surrounding my thoughts
those lyrics still surrounding my thoughts
the rhythm beating with my heart
i have tried, i have fought
to tear it all apart
within the sweet moments
within the sweet moments
i felt the bitterness
with all thats happened
there won’t be any happiness
intruding my dreams
intruding my dreams
invading my thoughts
running, isnt as easy as it seems
as it isnt as hard being caught
i weaken, when i think of you
i weaken, when i think of you
i feel heartbreak when i think of us
i cant get myself not to
i just..
i cant just be a witness
i cant just be a witness
i must be the executioner
i cant exist in this distress
i must move on, step further
you will leave me in silence
you will leave me in silence
you will not be able to protest
you will never be in my presence
you will let my emotions rest
from everything you’ve done
from everything you’ve done
for us or for your own good
i just cant condone
i dont think i ever could
