Poetic Passages by Tantan
- we write to matter...to believe that the soul can speak. *Tantan
Forsaken Brilliance

Nothing is what happens when you choose to be oblivious to the world,
And everyone around you
You give up
You chose the wrong path and you dare not turn back

You start to let go of mortality
And give in to your guilty pleasures
All you're doing is lying to yourself and giving up on faith
Relying on someone else's hope

No more thoughts from the dreamers mind...
Just a heart left to fall to nothing.


The Shame of Life

There's nothing left in me, but the pain i bare with
Everytime a bit of you leaves, a bit of me dies
I'm screaming so harsh, and so demeaningly
And yet nobody is listening
But why should they?
Nobody else knows what I'm feeling,
And I pray they never will
It's not a broken heart, cause we never were
It's just me...
I'm broken
shattered to the wind
And to bother putting the pieces back ...
Is hopeless.


Abused Desires

If I only had the words to Say
If I had the courage
If the fear of rejection wasn't holding me back
Maybe then, my inward thoughts would find you

The fact is, you don't understand
You have an obvious emotion of careless love
You give the cold shoulder and outward neglect
The sum of a painful realization of lost hope

The moment reality set in, was the moment i died
Inside and out
All emotion and heartfelt passions were ripped from my lips
They fell into a world of abused desires

All I'm left with is my dignity
I never let my heart control my every move
Leading me to my bitter end
In the end, all is said and done, but you go and I will stay


Un-answered Sorrow

Let down, empty, speechless,jealous,alone
A strong sense of emotions
All wrapped up inside your clouded head
All feelings you learn to hate

You're Left blameless for the way you feel

Too many emotions are open and exposed
Yet, more are visibly real to whom you feel all heartache for
To have a friendship?
To have what your life is lacking?

You've been lost for so long

Taking a chance to be found sounds tempting
Will you take the risk?
The consequences are tragic and an eye full of tears
But restraining it all feels like an endlees journey

Your heart has been cast out to sea for all eternity

How long do you wait here in endless sorrow?
Till you decide,
You're left feeling empty
Like a glass that was never full


Finding Freedom

A vision, a dream...
A wish for freedom
A field to claim our own
Drive off and find it

This is where the charade ends
Where we don't need authority
Where we don't need approval

Going off the deep end
I want to feel the wind on my face
I want to know what it's like to fly

Release from chains that pin me down
In search to find a new meaning to my so called life
