The Door

I see the end
The bane of change
The ashes of a world
Consuming its own flame
The minds of meek
The waking sleep
The curtain pulled aside
Revealing only sheep
Wake of the sacrifice
Fear binding to hate
Break minds to not think twice
Their skin is made to bleed
A crystal tower standing clear but mirrors lie
Bewitched to betray
Devilish
Reassured dismay
Keep your eyes on me
Wake of
Selling the mind to numb it
Reap the process
Break off
Healing to the world
The death is from inside
The lust for lies
And blackened comes the soul
Twisted is the edge
Breaking through my eyes
I’ve seen the prism
The system ticking low
Refracting only grey
The aperture knows not the glow
Frayed thought
Monochrome and dull
Apathy
Bewitched and betrothed
Requited
Mutual disdain
Waking me
Hurting me
Meet me on the other side of the door
Too long
Enslaved
Too long
These chains
Surrounding me
Etching stone engravings deep
Neath the sun a daily lie
Too long chained and enslaved
Let me take the veil away

The Veil
09:40

The breeze whips me tender
Cold darkness
I know not why I’ve come
I want what eyes can’t see
I want truth
I want to wash ashore
Disembark and set the ship aflame
And what has silence brought
But such shrill lies
The cold is growing deeper and through me
Louse upon my head
Caress the burning
A chill so real
So clearly summoning
I want to meet the gate of the egress
Burning voices turn my mind to ash
Twisted faces lie while showing me truth
What once was deep in mind
Thrown aside by daggers in the eyes
The melting ice
Look to the sea
The sky is lies
The paint is chipping
Revealing
A razor cutting
Moving through canvas
What lies behind
A mirror reflecting no man
What once lay safely leaves the hand
Open a mind
The air is thick with nervous breath
The Veil is unseamed
Where have shadows gone
Fire dying
I see only chains
On the stone wall
I see the light behind the sun
Break through the wall and time be done
Time stands still
Moment stretches forever
Break the cycle take life in hand
Make us free make a match of divinity
What lies on the other side of the door

The Pond

She came in bleeding
Torn apart and stained of the sun
She lay beside the rain
Gasping for air
She echoed through the void
Colorful and shapen this sound
She whispered softly
And screamed till I became mute
A lull of senses
Undone by whispered echo
Returned her thoughts to my hollowed skull
Memories
Masked
She whispered softly
To speak between myself
And when she screams I feel too real
A lullaby to numb and tie down
A gag so She won’t ask
A whip so I forget who ignited
Flames who’s ashes blind her eyes
A pond so I can drown in reflections
Of all the vapidness and
Weak
Lifeless
Conformity
Of a plane I have now exchanged
For a hell who’s bereavement
Has forever lurked within
Masquerading as wisdom
Cloaked in lust and envy
Slowly breaking through my eyes
By the infinite edges of it’s twisted blade

Untethered
03:31

In the temple of the lusting
Bent figures rearrange and beg
Fed but never sated
Like cancer in baskets deep
And here you are
Envious and cold
Tetherless
You’ve drifted down
And once you’ve awakened
You’ll find that not a thing has changed
You’ve crossed a door with no frame
Into a realm no different than that from which you exhiled yourself
A cold numbness beginning at the base of your skull will spread across your skin
And once at your fingertips digs deep into your flesh and beneath your bones
Death will never again frighten you
But life neither will excite
Where a vivid painting once stood
There sulks a grayscale polaroid
Your senses and feelings may be altered
And your ego become dust
But the spirit does not ever change
And so it’s vices live on

The Tide
09:08
|
|

I’ve washed ashore at last
Languishing and made to see
My mind has festered
Made porous from decay
The tide seems high
The tide seems high
And merciful the waves
I came to meet the call
It lied
Beckoning preying on my
Odious affinity for
All things I’ve ever thought to deem
Mine
Left to be fraught
The blade made solace
With poison
An eager sacrifice
Without gain
Cries spent
Endlessly blaming
Turning the inward eye
Blind
So hateful the gaze
The inner shock
The flea ridden rat of the plague
Left strewn aside
The spirits and warmth
The shiver makes it plain
The shudder shuts you in
To drown in loathing
A preferable fate
Than that of pity
Adrift and alone
I am my own snake
And pain
And hate I am the ashes burning
And lust
And fear
And vice I am the fire
And whore
And death I am the mirror
And love
And genesis I am the genesis
I despise and cry My wing was made my shell
Cursing the land It slowly grew leaden
Lusting for harvest It cracked and bled within
Not knowing to sow And outward it wept
I despise and cry My wing was bent by hell
Cursing the sun So quickly it melted
Lusting for ashes It slid upon a mound
Burning the veil The cave formed
Tether me again
Bind me
Tight
Feed me Ash
A new door I see
A floor of ice lies behind
The water beneath is warm
How cold I have been for so long
This water is better
This ocean I can cross
My flesh lusts after freedom from cold
Beyond the veil there must be peace
Two cries
Screaming out for the lies of the snake
And weeping as the origin of pain
I ripped the tether from my soul
I wield the chain I sought to escape
Doubly dejected
Useless
Sacrificed
The sadist bares her teeth
So says the mirror
I despise and cry
The cursed land before me steals
And showed me hatred
Just burn the earth to melt the ice
I’ve naught left but this final exit
I drank the nectar and cursed the insects
But fruit of envy grows in soils of poison
Two cries
Screaming out for the lies of the snake
And weeping as the origin of pain
I ripped the tether from my soul
I wield the chain I sought to escape
Silent
Wisened
Broken mind is fixed
At last I step beyond the door
And hear the ice break

Messora Montreal, Québec
A sound tumultuous and sharp
Gushing endlessly from the lips of a
chasm
Beckons incessantly the envious and the deceived
From a bastion just beyond a burning veil
What lies on the other side of The Door
