The Woods and The Light

I can't take it
The woods are too large
With sound everywhere
And the light of morning so far away

Sadness is all there is
Because happiness can't grow
No nutrients to survive
Barren wasteland

Light is ahead
The sound so deafening is no more
A hand at the light
Takes mine and leads me through

Eric M 1981~

Loneliness

I was lonely, very lonely indeed,
I have no committed friends, whom I could,
Really trust and rely on,
I have friends, who only share the happy moments,
And would fade away when trials arise,
I often sing songs of loneliness,
I feel like I was the only person on earth,
No one to laugh with or cry with,

Loneliness can destroy all living soul,
It is the cruelest tool for destroying lonely soul,
Here I feel the pain of loneliness,
Feeling of emptiness inside the heart,
Feeling of isolation,
Feeling of unexplainable pain in every parts of the body,
And the mind and soul, slowly torturing them in the cruelest way,
Making an alive human like me screaming in agony and pain,

Longing to be free someday,
To be in a place where there is happiness,
Place where there is no more sin, no war, no sadness,
Place of forever peace,
Place of uncountable wishes you could never have thought of,
Place where you could never be lonely,
As if loneliness never exist,
Loneliness how I wish it never exists in this world.

Rose of Evil Beauty

Oh beautiful, beautiful, beautiful rose
Why do you hurt me so?
You sit there so pretty, you sit there and wait
You appeal to your prey as you set up the bait
My beautiful, beautiful, beautiful rose.

I came just like the others and stretched out my hand
And you stuck your thorns in me, claiming your land
The cut went right through my chest, clear to my heart
Where you gripped me and ripped me and tore me apart.
My beautiful, beautiful, beautiful rose.

I'll never forget that horrible night
When my blood ran red, and I saw fire
When you shook me to quiver, and quiver with fright
As I called my beauty a liar.

I sit here a ghost, mourning your death
'Cause I'd hoped that we'd never part
But you took me to depths that no one else knows
And you stomped on my heart
My beautiful, beautiful, beautiful red
My beautiful, beautiful rose!!

ARISE FROM DEATH, EXIST, AND ACHIEVE
By: Mark R. Sosa

Speeding uncontrollably down the highway of sin, screaming for
closure from past scars within, frantically searching for a light,
longing self preservation in this life.

Repeated playbacks of salvation gone dry, witnessing
personal failures, desperately trying to regain the sky.

Unleashed daily from the corridors of death and insanity, the
Prince of Darkness arrives, to devour and decapitate
your mental capacity and your will to survive.

Attacking maliciously, to feed the poison you so desire,
castrated visions of carnal hysteria lead you right into the fire.

Psychosis infiltrates the minds weakened state, while terror
consumes the spirits willingness to change, by overcoming ones
oppression within, depression slowly fades as light regresses back in.

Most of humanity revels with jealous minds abstained, when spirits are
crushed and slain, overcoming daily strife, striving to survive in this brutal life.

Succumbing to another�s words of negativity, breeds mass destruction
on ones mentally stability, there�s no limit with a mind focused on endless
possibilities, arise from death, exist and achieve.

Death by Love
by Nathaniel Aaron Bryant

I take a breath I think of you
As if you consume everything that I do
Now I feel like you're water surrounding me
And every breath I breathe your drowning me
If only there was some way to get you out of my mind
Some way to erase all that past time
My memories only play back my mistakes
A vast album of my heartaches
The way I felt for you was like nothing before
And when I lost you I swear my heart tore
I know theres some way, and I will feel better
I just wish it would come alot sooner than never

Didn't You Know
by Nathaniel Aaron Bryant

Cuddling and holding you so gently
Did I ever let you know what you meant to me

Did I ever let you know how long I held back my emotions
To try not to hurt you, refrain from breaking these devotions

And I'd sit and think and I'd think and sit
Not a time in my life that I've felt more pain than this

I never meant to make you cry
You thought I loved you, well so did I

I would have gave the world to keep things at rest
I wanted to love you, I tried my best

So I'm sorry for all the pain I caused you
The closest to love I thought I knew

I Hate Your Kind
by Nathaniel Aaron Bryant

Your bitter kiss is not enough to keep me here
But more then enough to drive me away I fear
And I'd run away everyday if I knew I'd be closer to you
And I'd give up my all my days on earth if
together we could spend a few
So my ghost may ascend but only after that day
Float into the heavens a weary travelers way
An arm I'd give to make you mine again
but only your arm such a worthless limb
To give all that I have and you betray me once more
Your words only spread disease like the love of a whore

It's all Better when you Close your Eyes
by Nathaniel Aaron Bryant

I must admit I'm tired of all this confusion
you put me through
Yet somehow I'm still not tired of you
If you'd just allow me to be a something
then maybe I could understand
Right now I'm not even sure if you want me
as your friend
But my heart still remains yours for the
taking
And not sure of your descisions I pray not the breaking
Is it that you want me to stay
Or am oblivious to your hints I should go away
Give me some clue so I know how to act
Am I your friend? More? Or should I know
that all hope is lacked?
