Life #1

January 7, 2009 by darkerpoet

i cant believe i fell for it.

cant believe i took the bait

and before i knew what hit me

it was boom check-mate

 

and as i fall to my doom

as i fall to my demise.

i look up, and see you

right in front of my eyes

 

so i sit here stunned

pondering the cruel betrayal

my life is out of order

my train has been derailed

 

so i stand here angry

saying its you who is to blame

then i remember that old saying,

life is only a game.

 

just a game, just for fun

with all of my pawns in place

yet before i could make a move

i already lost the race.

 

so i have failed, as you see

for i simply could not win.

so i sit, and i wait

for my chance to play again.

This land today, shall draw its last breath
And take into its ancient depths
This frail reminder of its giant, dreaming self
While i, with human-hindered eyes
Unequal to the sweeping curve of life
Stand on this single print of time

Human wheels spin round and round
While the clock keeps the pace
Human wheels spin round and round
Help the light to my face

That time, today, no triumph gains
At this short success of age
This pale reflection of its brave and
Blundering deed
For i, descend from this vault
Now dreams beyond my earthly fault
Knowledge, sure, from the seed

Human wheels spin round and round
While the clock keeps the pace
Human wheels spin round and round
Help the light to my face

This land, today, my tears shall taste
And take into its dark embrace
This love, who in my beating heart endures
Assured, by every sun that burns
The dust to which this flesh shall return
It is the ancient, dreaming dust of god

Human wheels spin round and round
While the clock keeps the pace
Human wheels spin round and round
Help the light to my face
Human wheels spin round and round
While the clock keeps the pace
Human wheels spin round and round
Help the light to my face
