Lost through space
Where have the sweet songs in our hearts gone too?
Childhood memories have gone by
lost in the years
we spewed out of our minds.
It's all over now.
Lost in the song of time
Childhood imagination that made us stay up after twilight.
The emptiness in the world has come to be
such misery
for those who dream in their worlds at night.
Will they ever see daylight?
Lost at infinite sea
All the little things that made us laugh as we grew.
How did we grew up thinking we are invincible
attached to the drunken suds
that has made us into soulless beings all over town.
Lost in the echoes of minds
Our families we knew
Shhh...
Nothing is real my friend,
Everything is fake,
And nothing is real!
Clasp your hands like a rose bud,
And raise them to the soaring sun,
Whisper your mind to the mighty one,
And pray we come through this unscathed!

Ashes of Remembrance
It amazes me.
Someone that could barely fit in my arms,
I can now hold in my hands.
It's an awful feeling.
A realization I could've gone years without;
A realization that this has happened.
I know it's been over a year now,
Don't remind me.
But it still hasn't sunk in.
I gaze upon the urn,
Taking in all the attention to detail;
The etches in the brass filled with gold.
The swirling designs,
The black coat behind it,
Making the gold pop.
It's so simplistic,
Yet the design couldn't be more complex.
Heh . . . just like you.
I can't tell you how many times I gaze in the back room,
Hoping . . .
Praying to see a movement.

heart, hand and sky by Shattered-Horizon, literature
Literature
heart, hand and sky
Tonight, I held your hand
It was a warm, recurring feeling which
Promptly set my heart ablaze
Stardust and moonlight shaded in your hand
Against the dark seams of the night A monochrome dream
Faded love lines covet your palm,
Have you forgotten to read between the lines?
Among the scrap book of childhood memories,
We adorned ourselves with torn treasure maps
Does the X reside in your eyes?
How long has it remained hidden?
Slowly slipping in and out of conscious
Is the treasure any less divine then you?
Last night, I held your hand;
Tomorrow grace me with lips.
Green eyes and purple smile by allison767, literature
Literature
Green eyes and purple smile
Bright green eyes and a purple smile
I haven't seen you in a while
This girl that stands in front me
Doesn't seem that she could be
The same girl ten years later
But she stands a little straighter
At five than at fifteen
I just haven't seen
Bright green eyes and a purple smile
It just doesn't seem to be my style
To walk around in dirt filled clothes
With finger-paint smeared on my nose
I guess that's all gone south
So, you with those bright green eyes and that purple smile
I wish you stay for a little while
But I guess you've always still been here
I guess you've just had some fear
And didn't want me to see you
Maybe
A ghost ship hovers
on the far horizon
ethereal and beyond
reach it drifts
in silent repose.
Lost souls haunting
her docks collecting
the wayward traveler
who has been lost
to untold depths.
Their stories whisper
upon the wind
carried through the cries
of gulls, those messengers
of lamenting sailors.
They alone may hold
the mysteries of
the endless blue
who like a lover
drew them into her
unrelenting embrace.
