Infinity has an end my friend,
Ive been over and over again,
I know all and all I see,
With awesome speed recalling memories,
I stand in a land,
With the world in my hands,
Though Ive yet to feel grand,
Boredom you see,
To be stranded like me,
Share my misery,
and reality bends in this place,
That Ive got to face,
Where all roads end,
they also begin,
So stand with me ,
And share eternity...
Woke this morning for no reason at all,
Arose from my slumber to wander the halls,
With no purpose to drive me or to open my eyes,
Just a burning desire to see the sun rise,
I must have seen one in the many days of my life,
Yet I dont ever remember a single sunrise,
I cannot count the sunsets Ive gazed into,
A thousand unique bursts of crimson and gold suspended in a sea of blue,
Beautiful how the day fades into night,
Lights desperation to hold on is an awesome sight,
Yet Im troubled to think Ive never witnessed the return,
The triumphant ride of the days brilliant burn,
How have I missed it so many times,
Ive never even cared to watch the sun rise,
So this perfection remains a mystery to me,
Except in technicolor on my dark TV screen,
Eager I was to rush in and look at the sky,
Would it be radiant with an almost blinding white light,
Anticipation rising I gazed into the horizon,
But all I saw was the crashing of lightning,
The sun must have rose but the storm captured my eyes,
So thus Ive still never seen the sun rise...
I hide in the shadows thinking no one can see me cry,
Then someone turns on the light and Im spotted by every eye,
So next I find refuge in an abandoned 4 wall room,
But cant cry there either someones bound to find me soon,
Then the thunder crashes and the lightning strikes,
My eyes become filled with a greedy delight,
For when the sky rumbled I knew what was in store,
A rain that would rain and rain and again rain some more,
So I wait ever so eager for those droplets to fall from the sky,
Because then and only then will no one see me cry........................

You were not intruding dear, thank you for your comment. I can relate to this piece of poetry quite well, its when I feel its safest to cry so no one can see, and think i am weak.
very true
Black the sky churns, cold the ground burns,
Stale is the air, and life is not fair,
Darkness flows and quickly shows,
Were just survivin, nobodys thrivin,
Knowing not the pain inside him,
Crashing lightnin, Runnin frightend,
No way in hell he'll quit fightin,
No more hidin, last fear subsidin,
Cause everybody feels just like him,
Then we stand up to fight, in the bright light of night, until theres no threat in sight, it all ends tonight,
So we'll choke on our pride ,or scream out our cries, give up and lay down, or stand up and die,
A choice we must choose, will we win or lose,
Blank is my mind, our way I will find, and be there on time, cause this choice is mine...
The sands of time slip through my fingers like running water... It seems as though there is never enough and yet there is way too much... The ticking of time the only constant of the world each tick a moment, every tock a reminder its lost forever...

I've been lost within my soul,
Not knwing where I am.
Living in an endless hole,
But do I really give a damn.
Take this shit off my mind,
So I wont forget myself.
What makes me me I've got to find,
Where are the gates of hell.
I left my heaven and came to hell,
wandering all alone.
And Im wishing into a well,
Thats dry as a bone.
On down the dark road,
so far away from here.
Is the answer I need to know,
When did I dissapear?
All the pain in my life,
I could not deny.
With my tainted eyes,
I see the fucking well is dry.
Im in heaven to me its hell,
No chaos in this place.
Just this peaceful wishing well,
And me standing at the gate........
