Cut

Create a lesson for times of war,

Devotion to duty our spirits soar,

A hero conquers evil in every facet,

Impasses form how will they surpass it,

Circumstance of ill earned enemy,

The epitome of humanity's cruelty,

Frothing tempers a volcanic climax,

Edge of life with bitter attacks,

The truth left lax languid lilacs,

Flimsy at best with brutal perplex,

Stern demeanor dealt deftly cleaver,

Heart is splinter as bodies wither,

Cascade the blood with steel teeth,

Ripping open any hopes beneath,

A slain enemy at your feet

Outland

Subtle link our dreams on the brink,

Fly away to a common destination,

Tales of misfits on tribulation,

One is taken far out to space,

Never to be seen no trace,

Stranded outland of death's embrace,

Those left behind continue the race,

The spark of life will soon blossom,

Diligent duties daunting dim crossing,

Rehash the memory of those we lost,

Infinite price with haunting cost

Upkeep

Rhythm decision of constant numb feeling,

Stake is driven rain brutal misgiving,

Forfeit the object eternal neglect,

Fame through blood bitter prospect,

Courage to purge mortal dirge,

Rake the disease infectious surge,

Fickle the candle of brittle descent,

Flames now rent to cure tyrant,

Kept unclean the river is swept

One & Only

A light so bright I know it's right,

A single look to calm my storm,

When pests sting flesh torn swarm,

I cradle you take me away to space,

Find my place with silk and lace,

Always by my side I will have no other,

Even years pass these feelings I smother,

Uncover innocence a new found wonder,

The fondest memories sate my hunger,

What did I do to deserve this blessing,

Truly I'll never know nor stop guessing

Soak in Slumber

Absent of mind continual state,

Pendulum swings heavy as of late,

Stare at the clock for it stands still,

Bend to my will a stroke of the quill,

Bleed my ink a blood soaked canvas,

Lost in thought as if I planned this,

Falling star comes crashing down,

Tear soaked pillow ready to drown,

Anxiety steams torment familiar sound,

The ocean of emotion horrors abound,

All consuming I gasp for breath,

Scythe is looming harking death

Still Laughing

No matter how long I will endure the song,

Take a breath as it stings for long,

I will eat the flies of disease decay,

To feel the sorrow of death may lay,

Rot away as my time slithers at bay,

A thousand knives tear flesh I fray,

Torn I scorn I languid this way,

Look upon as the gray fills my soul,

A hollow black surge of whimsical fold,

Untold stories of disasters so cold,

A winter of disgrace too void to replace,

I laugh as glass rips apart my face

Forfeit

The shadow I cast will forever outlast,

The things I do as a desolate outcast,

I wander wicked in damp retreat,

Held by shallow and timid by obvious defeat,

I look at this world with childlike wonder,

Till it tears my limbs from tooth asunder,

I wallow the whispers of waking wither,

Whether dark breathes envy of bone deliver,

I stand alone as the devil may cry,

My flesh is torn as I perpetuate the lie,

It takes strength to finally understand,

My life is forfeit as is master plan
