Beautiful sounds from the near dark of dawn
Sleep evades me, without even a yawn
The birds sound jubilant through their bright song
I now know that this ideal has been wrong

If you dreamt of her, 
that fair, perfect maiden, 
the Angel of Purity, 
know that it was I who called out to that Star 
In the darkness of the night, 
I prayed for that blinding Light, 
begging that Spirit to fly to your side, 
and retake your hand as your bride:

It is a fact, I am the only 
Must I be destined to live lonely? 
Joy dwells with those born amongst many 
Do I not deserve to have any?

Remorse of the Rose

The tragedy of the rose is its thorns 
The existence of these it always mourns 
It unintentionally causes scorn 
It cannot help the way that it was born 
For this reason, it will always feel lorn

I am thankful for the silence 
It has replaced the violence 
For once the ocean has been calm 
I wade its waters with no qualm 
Now that the waves have seemed to cease 
my equilibrium finds peace

He never sleeps 
Yet, if he should 
he wakes and weeps 
 
Music he seeps 
from out his mind 
in bounds and leaps

You feel sorry for me? 
How kind. 
Do the blind truly see? 
In mind. 
 
And what about in heart? 
If pure. 
And if the two should part? 
You're poor.

Life for the first and only time had meaning 
You destroyed it with your negative weaning 
Are you jovial now that you've brought me down 
equal to your constant perpetual frown?

I rule the kingdom of missing beats 
They are discovered late like John Keats 
I am aware I am thought a fool, 
yet, I do assure, I am no tool

Love is Like Gold

Love is like gold; 
difficult to attain and so delicate to hold 
Yet, once it is felt, 
it can never melt 
Through heat and pressure it withstands 
Its ownership on our hearts it brands 
It waits patiently with one goal;

Forgive me, I implore 
I can answer you no more 
Though, your heart I do adore 
for its actions I must abhor 
My attempts to rebuild rapport 
have proven false within their core
