Poetry: The boundary where Science meets Art.
The cycle of life
A blank paper, no ink so pure,
In heart, in soul, in fortune. Questions that are asked But not answered. Marathons that are run But not finished. Like this a man is built, Through childhood Through adulthood, The paper is splashed. An old paper Once so blank, so pure. Now full of ink, and crumpled up. An old paper, so old, so dirty. Is it the truth?
Someone, somewhere, knows.
It’s what I feel. It’s what I think. And deep down in my heart This is what I know. Someone knows, knows All the ups and downs. All the crazy thoughts All the feelings of thrust. It will all turn right one day, Cause dreams don’t turn to dust. There’s always a second chance There’s always a small ray of light. But is that all? Does it end here? The butterflies never leave, A lifelong feeling to be endured. But who is it? Does he know? Moving OnYou come to a point
Where the dream you end up chasing, Is not the same dream anymore It’s bigger. Some ties are bigger than those you have just undone, You are responsible for your living, So don’t blame anyone for what you have wrong. Just forgive yourself for your mistakes and move on. What you just need to do, Dream as you’ll live forever But live as if you’ll die today. Overlay of thought
Life is for those living
Death is for the dead. So let life be like music in your ears, Let death be that note unsaid. It’s not that I’m afraid of death I do not fear death, I just don’t want to be there, when it happens. The tears are rollin down my cheeks Liquid sorrow that my eyes excrete When I wipe the tears from my eye’s The warm water takes me by surprise. It’s that if you just don’t express yourself You will end up dying one piece at a time. Unfold meHurt myself again today, and
The worst part is there is no one else to blame Hold me, wrap me, unfold me. I’m small and too weak to try. I have lost myself again. Lost myself and I’m nowhere to be found. Yeah I think I might lose this one, I lost myself and I feel unsafe. Hold me, wrap me, unfold me. I’m small and too weak to try. Come on and get up.
Sometimes we’re lonely,
sometimes we’re down, Our feelings are obvious, they’re right in our frown. We don’t want to talk, or sit and explain, Nobody would like it, if they felt the same pain. But just remember that you’re intelligent and kind, A person like you, is so hard to find. Your beautiful smile, is often the cure, You can get through anything, of that I am sure. Please remember, I’m right here for you, I care for you dearly, forever it’s true. Your mineEvery morning when I wake
and every night, I think of you If I lost you I would break without you I would come unglued. Do you still remember? When it was just you and me We trusted each other with anything The best that friends could be I never want you to let me go wanna stay like this forever I love you more than the world you are my perfect match I wait
For after you close the door Now that the leaf is turned. You leave me here, alone and sad, To search for your own born. For brothers and sisters I search, For people I’ve come to know and love. For it is known, that you don’t care, It’s me that has to work. For after you close the door, Now that the leaf has turned. I search for you , you’ll lead me through Now that the leaf is turned. To the very end
As I lie down In a foreign bed. As I cry myself out, Till my head goes down. I think of you My lord, oh God. I pray to you My lord, oh God. To help the unfriendly To keep them safe. To help those with power, To keep them steady. And to end my life Oh lord, oh god. That’s all I ask To come to you and cry. Cry to be back down here. Time
As time goes by, I think, of life As time goes by, The end is close. I wish, a wish, I don’t know why. As time goes by, It’s bought, and can’t be used. Oh lord, please help, To be with me Keep me, all safe and warm. Friends we whereToday would be my last. Today will be my first. The last time I get walked on by you, The first time I’ve moved so far from you. The last time I will wait for you to arrive, The first time, I know for sure I can survive. The last time I apologize for my mis-lead ways, The first time my feet are in the sand and waves. The last time I will worry if you are alright, The first time I can watch the sea all night. Today is the last day our friendship will survive, Tomorrow I’ll spare a thought and regret this day arrived. Come on get upSometimes we’re lonely,
sometimes we’re down, Our feelings are obvious, they’re right in our frown. We don’t want to talk, or sit and explain, Nobody would like it, if they felt the same pain. But just remember that you’re intelligent and kind, A person like you, is so hard to find. Your beautiful smile, is often the cure, You can get through anything, of that I am sure. Please remember, I’m right here for you, I care for you dearly, forever it’s true. |
Last words
Before I go to sleep, I look at my watch and I see, That time that passed, this day. The funny moments and The moments of truth, the happy Feelings and those, I’m not so sure. A vivid picture is in my head Before I go to sleep, the picture Of the day to come, and the one That has just passed. Today I see myself in here, I see myself in tears, Icy cold and full of soul, On the cheeks of my face. No reason to be afraid, Of what that is to come, known to you or not, not a Fix that can be done. Mid-way point
There’s a part where the footbridge ends
and the grass grows wild into the crimson light. The woody planks and the muddy soil, the gravel ground and the winding string. Bobbing up and down on a windy day, getting wet and muddy when the clouds let rain. As the grass grows still, all green and strong, with all the changes going on. Smile
Smile twice a day for it costs nothing,
But from it you get plenty, It takes but a moment, But memories of it last forever. It enriches those who receive, Without making poor those who give. It is the best antidote for trouble, and yet it cannot be begged for, borrowed or stolen, for it has no value Unless it’s given away. Move On
Just keep on walking
A small voice said Don’t dare look back Look straight ahead Be strong and brave Calm your fears Keep that chin up Dry your tears. Timing the Future
In a sea of darkness
Searching for some light As tomorrow comes And then quickly fades away You might be just round the corner But yet still miles away. Now that I’ve fought For what I am today Now sometimes I remind myself Someday I’ll be free. Mistakes
Some mistakes can be altered,
Some mistakes can be fixed, Some mistakes can be forgotten, But some mistakes just never go away. See it in your eye’s
When the days are cold
The cards are all fold When your dreams all fail You’ll feel it coming in the air Hear the screams from everywhere There’s nowhere you can hide I want to save this light It might be the last we have When you feel my heart Look into my eyes Don’t get too close It’s too dark inside I want to hide the truth I want to shelter you But with the beast inside There’s nothing I can do. It can’t be all downhill from here ;)
If you can just one day learn to;
Have the courage to change the things you can change, or the decency to accept the things you just cannot. One day you might live to tell the story; how you had the wisdom to know the difference. For yesterday is just a dream, but tomorrow is still a vision. But you must only live for today, I know the road may be rugged And the hills a bit too high, but If you just have faith in your heart Just start upward, and climb, up until you reach your dream. I Cry
How beautiful is this world? It shines on all of us. When I’m feeling down My feelings erupt into tears. I Cry for Hope I Cry for Happiness I Cry for Despair I Cry for Safety I Cry for Comfort I Cry for Song I Cry for Remembrance I Cry for Faith When you cry so much That you get that feeling Of being sick in your soul, Body all trembling, In a fit of shaking; I Cry for Sadness I Cry for you. The End
As the end draws near, And the door is closing. There’s no one that can Jam his foot in. No one to stop the force. As the end draws near, And the blade is on the cheese. There is no one to help No one to get the butter. As the end draws near, And the cliffs are close. There is no one to Break the fall. No one to pull the ropes. As the end draws near, And the air, so scarce. There’s no one to pull me up. No energy to help me out. As the end draws near, And there’s no time left. There’s no one to stop the clock. And seconds are passing Tick tock, tick tock. You wouldn't look the same
There comes a day where I can’t see I look at my hands and say here I am, How and why did we end up here. It’s kind of hard to get off the ground, Stuck in place, nowhere to go Helpless, lost hope and health Don’t feel you can carry yourself. Words can’t express when you understand That you can take your life and get another chance Found the strength just to carry on. I look at my hands and say here I am, And now your troubles passed and you overcame And now the guy in the mirror doesn’t look the same. Carpe DiemEach and every one of us
is one day,going to stop breathing turn cold, and die. So recognize the power of each moment, and as long as the sun and the moon are above us, there’s always a way of getting life out of the box. Uncapping the bottle to let the effervescence gush. Sieze the day as it is ripe, and enjoy every moment, as this may be your last. |
