Chapter 6.21 : Illusions ...

Images of serenity and peace,
looked like a place to be at ease.
Like a seedling searching for the light,
overshadowed by the moonless night.

Painted faces pass and go,
few who reveal to let you know.
Artificial emotions that you project,
like a crimson blade stuck on my back.
The power to lead that was infused,
now is all but spend and abused.
Fatal speeches that went to deep,
I wonder how do you sleep.

The scales were tipped by a pressure so great,
that not even the bravest soul could ever take.
A fabric wrapped around the eyes of justice,
causing random flares in the still mist.

It takes intense concentration to see,
like the hidden messages that are written in tea.
Instincts that survived through the ages,
will now be pushed to the edges.

Chapter 2.4 : Nothing used to be what it seems ...

The world was made of blue and green,
but now it's the industry that has the grin.
Everyday I see and feel the perils,
the sky, the sea, the earth that trembles.

Nature's way of retaliation,
is nothing compared to our evolution.

No one's happy anymore,
captives and slaves to the industry.
No one's complaining anymore,
the uncertain consequences that they would rather not face.
No one's fighting anymore,
a field of cowards that hide in the shadow.
No one's smiling anymore,
for there is clearly no reason to.

Smily faces that seem so bright,
stretches a shadow that overwhelms all lights.
Conversations that ease your mind,
with no reasons that I can find.
Tales of promises that seem so dear,
ending up in silent tears.

There isn't a person that one could rely on,
fatal blows from the shadows that lurk behind your back.
A crimson trail one left that bleeds into the deep,
the unbearable pain that one can't seem to break free from.

There is no turning back now.
There is no one else left to hold on to.
There is no reason to be standing still.
There is no feelings that one can feel.

Nothing used to be what it seems ...

Chapter 2.3 : Do you have the answer ?

The reasons for the scars that does not heal,
the feelings within that you cannot deal.
The sight that brings back the unwanted pass,
the sounds that you hear that you dare not ask.
The touch that warms your blood have now turned cold,
the light that once shone has now faded.

The wounds that go too deep.
The unforgettable past that haunts.
The reason for living has turned meaningless.
The voices that are lost in the wind.
The blades that once hurt has turned numb.
The will that once withstood has now vanished.

Soft lights glittering in the silence of the night,
why do people feel?
Droplets of rain fell down from the sky,
why do people think?
Darkness that swallows the light,
why do people hurt?

Chapter 6.20 : We are fighting dreamers ...

Find the reason for the dark memories that still linger in your past.
Ignite the passion that keeps the vision of the future bright.
Grip the present and ensure that you live every second of it with no regrets.
Hold the one closest to you and promise that you will protect them no matter what.
Trace the reasons that is holding you back and break free from that prison.
Isolate the ones that are hindering you and release that inner strenght of yours.
Negate the negative influences and stand up for what you truly believe
Give the Earth a chance to live and continue to see your race flourish.

Dance among the trees of the woods and breathe the rejuvenating fresh air that lingers in it.
Release justice into the world and bring hope to those who deserves it.
Embrace your destiny and take up that future that you have always feared to behold.
Accelerate courage into your veins and stand up you and your loved ones.
Meet up old peers and re-forge bonds that are still worth making.
Empower yourself with hope and know that your destiny has yet to be decided.
Rack up what is still needed and toss the rest out of the window.
Sun the darkness within you and let yourself shine through the dark clouds that passes by.

Chapter 1.0 : Should ... ?

You caught my eye like the Sun in the sky.
An internal warmth I felt that I can't get enough of.
The passing rain clouds dissapear right in front of my very eyes.
Your smile shines through the clouds that frown.

Somehow you got me hypnotised.
I can awake, but choose to decline.
Conjure your spells onto me.
Take me into your darkest dreams.

My stomach's filled with butterflies.
My palm sweats when our eyes meet.
My mind goes blank when you smile at me.
My soul's a mess when we speak.

Should I stay, or should I go?
Should I go, or should you stay?
Should I stay , or should you go?
Should you go, or should you stay?

Chapter 6.19 : Choose ...

Choose to see what there is to see.
Choose to feel what there is to feel.
Choose to hear what there is to hear.
Choose to think what there is to think.
Choose to touch what there is to touch.
Choose to trust who there is to trust.

No vision to see the future.
No one to sense your presence.
No sound to hear ones cry.
No thoughts to ponder upon.
No soul to open your heart to.
No promises to keep.

Broaden your sight and save the ones in need.
Widen your senses and be sensitive about others.
Speak your mind and let others understand you.
Create dreams and let your imagination run wild.
Trust yourself and rely less on others.
Forge bonds that bind and never let them go.

Choose your path.
No turning back.
Look straight and move forward.

Chapter 6.18 : Concluded

Gathered for a common interest,
we fought together to get first.
Laughing at the prey in which we pawned,
all of those could be written in a song.

The respect that you give I cannot deny.
The kindness that you shower I cannot reject.
The laughter that you bring I cannot ignore.
The openness that you sing I cannot exclude.

Deep in thought it soon projected,
somehow I will soon be rejected.
Fear the shadow that was created,
somehow I have already concluded.

Chapter 6.17 : Old allegiance lingers ...

Old allegiance lingers in my mind,
my freedom that I had I cannot find.
Clouding the present time and again,
my senses I somehow cannnot retain.

The path of time seem the wind down,
like the leaves of the autumn trees I cannot count.
Confused my mind winds and twirls,
sometimes I wish it was easy to hurl.

Chapter 6.16 : Ponder ...

Sing a song which fills the air with joy,
let all that are tense uncoil.
Spread those feathered wings and fly,
up to the rolling clouds so high.
Dive into the clearest sea,
what is there not to see.

Dream of the wildest dreams,
along with some strawberries and cream.
Reach for the goal that you have always wished,
like a widow long for her husband's kiss.
The Sun and Moon shall always rise,
just like how we all try to be nice.

Chapter 5.4 : Will you take it or will you pass?

My hand I offer to whoever is in need.
Take it with no fear,
your thoughts and secrets I will hear.
Let loose your feelings that you hold dear,
let your heart again be clear.

My thoughts I offer to those who ask.
Think carefully before you ask,
silence yourself if I pass.
Pursue me if you dare,
beware for I might flare.

My loyalty I entrust to anyone.
Take it; you need not ask,
beware that it is no simple task.
A simple loyalty is all I ask,
will you take it or will you pass?

Chapter 6.15 : The cycle ...

On the edge of a cliff I stand,
a sea ahead that has no end.

A thin soft lush grew below my feet,
that no machines nor humans can beat.
The sky was clear and bright that day,
it is there that my heart lay.
The little clouds rolled by slowly,
a stretch of arm and I can reach them barely.
The wind was fresh and cool,
like angels dancing around I flew.

A sudden presence I felt behind,
what a bright day it should be fine.
I stretched my arms as the wind blew by,
sometimes I feel that I could fly.
The Sun's rays shine upon my face,
warming me up at a slow pace.
It got closer but I felt no threat,
a little shy maybe that I will get.

A short sharp sting I felt behind my back,
no mercy nor hope it does not lack.

To my knees I fell like an apple from a tree,
the pain that impaled had took hold of me.
The sky turned darker then it was,
wondering what was the cause.
The currents of the sea grew rough,
crashing against the rocks it engulf.
The creatures of the Earth had retreated,
the winged had all departed.

To the ground I fell like a dried leaf from a tree,
waiting for its time to past like me.
The Earth that was once green is now tainted,
by red from which my blood spurted.
The air grew thick and heavy,
every breath is now short and weary.
My vision is now painted with darkness,
unable to recover from this emptyness.

Turning back I will not do,
for a chance I give for a wrong move.
There I lay for my time to past,
a second chance or life I will not ask.
Destiny is now taking me on another journey,
and I have faith that it will be sunny.
Thinking of the past that was still bright,
somehow my mind had taken flight.

As my last breath came I closed my eyes,
returning to the Earth without any price.

Chapter 6.14 : Good is evil, as evil is good ...

Good is evil, as evil is good.
Black is white, as white is black.
Living is dead, as dead is living.
Good is evil, as evil is good.

Outer influences clog my mind,
pondering whether to be kind.
Reality struck me like a lightning bolt,
sinking all that I have on my boat.

Ripped by the swift winds.
Pounded by the icy rain.
Scorched by the burning Sun.
Battered by the sifting sands.

Stranded on a distant shore,
wondering what i'm here for.
Maybe to refresh my thoughts,
as well as the battles that I fought.

Good is evil, as evil is good.
Black is white, a white is black.
Living is dead, as dead is living.
Good is evil, as evil is good.

Chapter 6.13 : Feel ...

Everyday I see you rise from the Earth,
it is you that awakes my nerves.
The warm touch you give me every day,
from the bed in which I lay.

Fluffy and white you pass me by,
sometimes dark when you cry.
To feel your touch and your existence,
with no machines or any assistance.

A gentle light you spread through the land,
in places where I need a hand.
Changing in appearance everyday we meet,
many surprises you still keep.

Shining like a jewel in the sky,
washing away all the sly.
Guiding countless through the deep,
but somehow I know I could not keep.

Chapter 3.2 : Threat ...

A threat you send to me,
for what reason I cannot see.
For pleasure or status,
or is it just a curse.

Who gave you the right to insult my rights?
Who gave you the power to control my might?
Who gave you the authority to restrict my fight?
Who gave you the darkness to block my light?

Jokes are funny for the young.
Joy is brought for the lucky one.
Warmth you give just like the sun.
Knowledge you sing like none.

Threats are no laughing matter to receive.
Curse and insult as you please.
Wounds and bruises you inflict with ease.
your weapon that is I cannot cease.

A shield of valor is all I have.
Hit me not for I am prepared.
No weapon to pound or carve.
Only to have me feel your wrath.

Touch me not ...

Chapter 6.12 : Ups and Downs ...

Life is full of ups and downs,
there is no reason for us to frown.
Time passes by like winds through the meadow,
but somehow it seem too shallow.

Judements rule our daily lives,
unheard voices all that cry.
Justice through a written law,
all is lost just through a fall.

Reasons point the way to go,
but none of us just seem to know.
Choices shape our world ahead,
the past that haunts us till we are dead.

Festive seasons come and go,
bringing warmth right in the cold.
Holidays seem good but lame,
stop us not or you are to blame.

Life is full of ups and downs,
there is no reason for us to frown.
Time passes like wind through the meadow,
but somehow it seems too shallow.

Chapter 6.11 : Crippled ...

Tears of old,
cloud my soul.
Life and death,
blind my path.

Visions of late,
tied my fate.
Misuse of trust,
crumbles my lust.

Wounds are fresh,
tears my gash.
Weights that burden,
greater my pollution.

The weakening light,
darkens my sight.
The overflowing hollow,
amplified my sorrow.

Chapter 5.3 : What is the point?

Friend, a person whom you know well and whom you like a lot, but who is usually not a member of your family. Everybody needs a friend. Everybody wants a friend. Everybody sees a friend. But not everybody have a friend.

Having a friend is like having someone to share your thoughts and feelings to. Someone to rely on in times of doubt. Someone to trust your deepest darkest secrets. Someone to gossip and pin-point with. Someone to share your happiest and saddest moments of your everyday. Someone to count on when you are cornered. Someone to understand why you are what you are doing. Someone to respect who you are. Someone to be there for you, no matter what.

Friends are sent to Earth by the almighty forces from the skies. But what are their true purposes for being sent here. You meet. You bond. You leave. What sense does that make? It seems all sweet and happy at first, then you get used to each other and starts to drift apart. Eventually when time stetches the already fragile bond, you leave. That leaves you broken and shattered and eventually lost ...

What is the point of befriending another when you know that in the end, you are alone. What is the point of opening yourself to another when you know that in the end, they will leave. What is the point of accepting another when you know that in the end, you will be hurt and lost. What is the point when in the end, it is all for himself ...

Chapter 5.2 : Should I reveal ...

Smiles and cheerful it seems to be,
talking and asking about the key.
Divided by destiny we were left stranded,
somehow we bonded with nothing added.

Experiencing the unknown ahead,
it has always been just a bait.
Time passes and colours seem to reveal,
some brought joy while others seal.

Asking questions of my doubt,
silent and calm you always sound.
Daggers of great precision flew,
somehow I already knew.

Should I reveal not the enemy?

Chapter 6.10 : Sapped ...

A union of people brought together for a common goal,
they look and speak in different speech and tone.
Some were brave, proud, cocky and bold,
others were quiet, silent and cold.

A bond was formed from an unlikely force,
smiles, looks, resource or even flaws.
Nuturing the grip which holds them tight,
not for long it seems out of sight.

Divided by destiny one could not help,
what pain and sorrow could not be felt.
Hanging on to what is left,
somehow all of them have sapped.

Chapter 6.9 : 5 minutes ...

5 minutes it took for my mind to wake up,
the constant ringing of the alarm clock.
4 mintues it took for my legs to step up,
the routine that I have always done.
3 minutes it took my eyes to open,
the glaring lights and pictures taken.
2 minutes it took for my hands to function,
the grabbing and typing of the early news.
1 minute it took for my senses to awaken,
the basics to differ right from wrong.

5 mintues it took for me to feel,
the gentle sunlight upon my skin.
4 minutes it took for me to inhale,
the morning air that lingers in the gale.
3 minutes it took for me to freeze,
the cool air brushing pass my skin.
2 minutes it took for me to see,
the dark clouds had risen from the sea.
1 minute it took for me to realise,
the rain that was told had turn to ice.

5 mintues it took for me to smile,
the sight of you is worth my while.
4 minutes it took for me to see,
the conclusion that we are dressed alike.
3 minutes it took for me to speak,
the unusual conversations that we seek.
2 minutes it took for me to notice,
the aura that you send difts me from this.
1 minute it took for me to realise,
the repetition of my daily life.
