Natural Instinct

Sounds of sorrow-stars swooping down to barren ground
The centre of the earth opens up to swallow them whole
Echoes of their message go out to those who listen
Following their goodbyes to all that is destined to be

And worlds return as the phoenix rises from the ashes
A paradox lying in wait for time’s grim reality
Will the sun ever set on that synthetic smile?
Those tears rain down creating pools of sadness

Denying our chance of stepping across this dimension
A vision of a void so carelessly created
The universe contemplates each insignificant moment
And shadows devour small subconscious lines

Launch a boat onto this river of inspiration
Floating down passing by rhymes and reason
Prophetic harmonies beckoning us on as one
Our origins are as simple as a seed of truth

We follow this natural instinct to the end

Wanderings

This desolate and broken place
A haunting echo of a dream
Reminiscent of another time
Where no one hears you scream
Observing the deep shallows
Fog swirling above the trees
Atoms of chaos colliding
In the memories of our needs
So swallow it down
This attempt to shut it out
And when the time comes
There’ll be no chance to doubt

Fragments

Fragments of a dream
Following a sign
Beneath the doubting moon
Echoing in rhyme
A sense of loss awoken
Too late to start again
Give it a chance
Nothing left to remain
Whispers to the stars
Falling down to earth
Burnt up in the reality
Find out what its worth

Signal

Looking out of the skylight 
Secret whispers of the clouds 
Bringing the past to light 
As the shadows disappear 

Looking out over the sea 
Something on the horizon 
Beckoning, to guide me 
And leave the past behind 

Looking for further clues 
Something in the surrounds 
Blinded by what to choose 
A new way, a new chance
