touching the outer layer lightly
bits and pieces flaked off
to reveal the depth of charred remains
the hope of finding healthy tissue
was like hoping to gather leaves in a windstorm
a hollow shell, the final prize
a figment of an imagined existence
cloaked in pallid-colored dreams
passed down through bargain basement ideals
whispers to ears void of tempered knowledge
and bright-eyed for a path leading towards a fool's gold
whose story continues to be told
lush feilds of blossoming trees and flowers
flourish within sight, but awareness has been retarded
for the sake of finding buried treasures, and mind follows

if a friend lost his keys
and needed a ride
would you be there to pick him up
and stay by his side?
if he needed the shirt off your back
would you comply?
would you give him your own
without a blink of an eye?
if someone were after him,
would you lend him your gun?
maybe in the Hatch of your car
you'd be sure to find one
If a friend needed money
would you get it for him
or would you lend it knowing you'd get it returned
by a Ron, Kevin or Jim?
friendships are funny things
when there's mischief involved
you can never be sure what will ever evolve
people will change in the blink of an eye
you'll sometimes be left with the blame asking "why?"
choose your friends wisely, ther'll be some with no spine
without any integrity, no friends is just fine

After a long time
it laminate me again
sitting at the roof
it caught me again
felt again the influence
in pictures of my friends
the old story of our school days
attracted me again
that terror of our English teacher
still happy, my piece of writing
helps you sometime
having fun at free periods
tried our best
for each other to pass the bad times
At exams our friendship didn't leave the side
helps as much as we could
from our parents scold ,
who wait for this time
even if sorrow found the path to reach us
we made everything fine
Still remember my fight
to catch you at one last time
when it looked like it
walked away with a speed of light
when it look like all pages were filled
but came back with speed of mine
and called it "never end of line"
Everywhere I look is destruction
Everything I’ve built is ruined
It’s remains litter my past
With little hope for the future
You are my own worst enemy
It’s not the pressure of what I should be
It’s that I’m drowning in a sea of Me
I can’t believe that you’d lie to my face
But that’s your nature
You can’t help it
You’re a spawn of the Father of Deceit himself
A child of the devil
Just let me go
Die already
That I may live
And live fuller
Let go of me!
I am no longer am under your power
So why do I fall for it?
Why can’t I die that I may live?
Why can’t I kill my Self that I may survive?
That demon of ancient instinct
Who’s preyed upon my soul for so long
I know what’s right
And yet I choose wrong
Willingly
Passionately
Go to Hell Self,
Go back to where you belong
Free my soul from your clutches
That I may live eternally
For I know you
And I am my own worst enemy
