I watch the world
As I sit under the willow tree
I see people come and go
But what am I looking for?
Someone like me?
I fear I will not find that
I am alone
I walk among the people
My eyes on the ground
I bump into people left and right
Not caring
My mind is somewhere else.
Someone runs into me
Knocking me onto the cold pavement
I become angry
"Sorry I didn't see you." A voice said
When I look up at the person
My eyes widen
Those eyes...Ive seen them before.
We speak briefly and the go our seperate ways
But something stays with me
The mixture of emotions in your eyes
I saw pain
But I also saw mystery.
Time goes by fast
Over time I forget about you
However deep in my heart
We will meet each other again.
We are Kindred Spirits.
I walk along the empty streets
Wondering if you are out there
Thinking if maybe you are thinking of me.
The moon shines brightly on the empty city.
I feel as if someone is following me
Are you my shadow?
I turn around and you stand there
behind me watching me
You say"why are you out here alone?"
Your voice is carried to me on the wind
It sounds so dark
Haunting
Luring
And Yet so Tender...
But you keep your distance from me.
Why?
Are you my shadow?
You step closer to me
Your feet barely touching the ground
You stop in front of me and whisper in my ear
" It is not safe for you out here alone."
I reply" Then why are you here if its not safe"
"I was watching your every move."
"Are you my shadow?"
We stand looking at eachother
Saying nothing...
The wind rustles the leaves on the ground between us.
He suddenly smiles
I see what looks like fangs.
"Iam the one you should fear out here."
I dont fear the night and least of all you."
I turn to walk away from him twords home.
When I look back he is gone.
"I will be watching you" I hear a voice say
As the wind blows
" And yes, I am your shadow."
I walk along a narrow path
no room left and no room right
Nothing before me
Behind me is my past.
I hear your voice
Through the shadows
I want to answer
But something is telling me not to.
The road starts to widen
I see other people walking along side me.
Some women and some men.
Their heads are covered with hoods.
I dont get to see their faces.
I see you run through the crowd
trying to find a way to me
But the crowd gives you a hard time
As they sweep you further away from me.
I reach out hoping that I can reach you
But I am unable to grasp your reaching hand
My fingers brush yours and then total darkness
I find I am alone in the crowd.
As the weather changes
I notice that the Scenary changes
I see myself standing on a cliff.
I am watching the waves crash onto the land below.
I notice there is a sword across my back
I call out to the sky for some sort of sign
The lighting flashes
Thunder rumbles and I see you standing beside me.
As I watch I see blood drip down your arms
As you fall I hear you say
" I finally get to be next to you."
I catch you and hold you close as blood pools onto your chest.
I cry as your last breath slips from your lips.
"NO! Dont take him from me.Please dont leave me alone!"
" You promised" I said through the tears.
A voice answered"We will be reunited."
"In Time."
I wake up and look next to me,
You are sleeping calmly.
I brush a kiss across lips causing you to stirr.
When you wake up you ask me whats the matter.
"Nothing. All I need is time to tell you..."
Sleep now. I will be here when you wake.
Cause all we have is time....."
As Im Sitting here
trying to calm my fear
You seem out of sight
So I pray for daylight
Calling the winds wont do
I just want to be with you
Tears of sadness fall down my face
unseen in this dreadful place
Reach out of the light
Into the night
Take hold of my hand
Pull me through if you can
Out of the hellish land
Guide me through the night
If i start to put up a fight
Hold me close with all your might
Dont let me go til Daylight.
Demons try to pull me back
I scream out as they attack
Keep me tight in your arms
Protect me from their harm.
They cry out and pull me away
I try to get out of the way
You tell me to fight through the night
So I pray for daylight.
The demons chain me to a wall
Nothing below to break my fall
I hear you call
But im too weak to respond
They beat me and the blood flows
You feel my pain and the wounds show
They leave me there to die
I hang my head and silently cry.
I send out signals of intense pain
That even you cant contain
My head hangs in defeat
My spirit sounds the retreat
A lone tear rolls down my cheek
The loss of blood causes me to be weak
I hang in colors of white and red
You find me and think Im dead
You unchain me and I fall down
You catch my limp body before it hits the ground
You frantically search for a sound
But the only sound is the chains hitting the ground.
You rock me in your arms over and over
You sing a songs refrain
As your eyes see the blood stains.
You say " I love you" and your heart shows
all of a sudden my body glows
The blood stops its flows
You hold my body close through the night
with no will to fight
You cry you rant and rave
Screaming " Why couldnt she be saved!"
The glowing intesifies
My heart beats at a rapid pace
You look down and dry your eyes
As I look up at your face
You lean down and kiss me on my lips
your hands resting under my hips
The wounds start to go away
You whisper in my ear to stay.
"Marry me?"Is what u say.
I say"Yes" feeling the same way.
You kiss me though the night
Not letting up til daylight
So if I seem out of sight
Dont let me go til daylight
I sit up and wonder
How through fire and hell
How did I fall in love with a guy like you?
We have our ups and downs
But we manage to stay together
Through walls of fire
I still ask myself
How did I fall in love with a guy like you?
We smile, We laugh and we cry,
People tell me to find someone else
Slowly but surely their suggestion
Is eating me alive
I try to stay strong against
the negative elements
Only to sometimes fail
I sit and think
How could you fall in love with a girl like me?
Im not pretty
Im niave, sometimes cold hearted
I dont hear people
I dont think before I act
Im not mature
I am spoiled
I am self centered
How did you fall in love with a girl like me?
Was it my past?
My lonliness?
My heart?
My soul?
My mind?
The answers I must find
But only you can answer them
How did we fall in love with eachother?
You are probably wondering
What attracted me to you?
Honestly a lot of things.
You are honest
Sweet when you want to be
Tough mostly
You like some of the same things I do.
But it runs deaper than that.
You were the first guy
That I let see the real me.
Most guys would have left me
Or I would leave them.
You showed me
Two things
Life and Love
But nothing is fair in love and War
How did I fall in love with a guy like you?
How did you fall in love with a girl like me?
A man stands in front of me
Dressed in the finest robes
He points to something to small to see
He takes hold of my hand
Just once.
I step closer to him
I feel his body quiver as I reach for him.
I look up at his face and I see his feelings
Just once.
I noticed his soul was torn
He was harboring so many emotions
Anger, Agony, Pride, Lust and Love
But one clouded his eyes
Dispair
I try to understand
Just once.
Just this once let me erase
Agony, Anger, and other pain
Just once let me feel the passion
Just once love me the way you used too
Just once let me feel your arms around me
Just once let me hear you say" It will be ok"
Just once let me feel like my life has meaning
Just once please dont make me feel alone.
I see tears fall as he pulls away from me
He says" I have to leave."
I feel so cold inside as he turns away
" Stay with me forever" I whisper to the shadows
"Just this once."
I sit up and watch you sleep
Many thoughts run through my head
The next morning you sit me down
And tell me that you have to leave for a while
Why?
I stare at you in disbelief
Does our life together have to end?
Does our love have to die?
You tell me you may not come home
Why?
Everynight I stay awake
Wondering, thinking about you
I see the stars and I say a silent prayer
I cry myself to sleep a lot
I'm frightened
Why?
Why?
Did you have to leave?
Why?
Can't I follow you to the end of time like I promised?
Why?
A part of me died that day
A dark cloud encircled my heart
A piece of my soul is missing
Why?
Until I have my heart
my soul and my world as one
There will always be the question
Why?
I look at your picture while you are gone
I begin to have mixed emotions
Am I supposed to feel this way?
Mixed Emotions?You may wonder
Anger, Pain, Love and Lonliness.
But one stands out: Desire.
Anger cause you are not here
Pain just cause I dont care about myself
Love cause I love you more than you know
Lonliness cause even if I see you I am still alone.
Desire for something I may or may not get.
What do I desire?
Respect as a women and a mother but above all as your wife.
Every marriage is built on trust
But you dont trust me.
Am I supposed to feel this way?
The answer is no.
So how will you fix how I feel?
Warriors Struggle(Dragon Rage Part 2)
What does a warrior go through
To make him of her so blue
They wonder when it will cease
The war and bring about peace.
Where is this peace?
Maybe it will come when I am dead
But that day I really do dread
But where can I find this peace.
I look to a friend but what do I find
Nothing that is Kind
Dragon wings flutter above me
I look up but it’s hard to see.
Its eyes are red
Its scales are black
I back up in dread
Cause I think it will attack
It lowers its head to my level
I wonder if it’s the devil
But it speaks in a human voice
"It is your choice…."
"I can help you…"
"Or I can hurt you…"
"But it takes two…"
"Who… Who are you?" I said
"I am your darker half. It is me that you dread…"
"I am the one called Dragon Rage…" It said
Different questions were racing through my head.
The dragon changed forms before me.
Before I knew what was happening
I was facing myself
She had an evil smile on her face
I knew it was my blood she wanted to taste
She walked over and took a hold of my hand
"I’m here to help you survive if you let me… Washi Hane"
"How can I trust my own darker half?"
"You have to and then you will find a perfect balance."
"I don’t want to trust you…."
"I’m tired of being the stronger one of us both…"
"I want to rest in peace and when you need me then I will surface again…"
"But… But you are the one that has kept me alive all these years Dragon Rage… You can’t Leave me alone like this…."
"I must… I am tired of fighting Washi Hane… You have to be the stronger one now…"
I fell to my knees and started sobbing.
"I will teach you how to be strong…"
A black glow started to pick up around her,
I shielded my eyes as a white glow came around me.
Then the two intertwined.
After Dragon Rage and I formed into one
A yin and yang formed below and above us.
I stood and I felt stronger.
Dragon Rage’s voice was echoing in the air after the combination.
" I will be inside you if you need me. Just when you are in trouble let me take over…"
I nodded in response and walked away from the clearing where she and I stood.
Dragon Rage and I are one.
So I know when I am in trouble
I can always allow her to take over
This is a the warrior’s struggle
For peace in the soul.
Dragon Rage(Part1)
Dragon Rage I cant tell
It feels like a bat out of hell
Blood Rage is what I feel
The thirst for blood is better than any meal.
My nails grow sharp as knives
Sometimes I wonder why I am alive
My blood gets hot
And to some people thats a shock.
My eyes change to red
I look around for who will be dead
The wings that were once
white are now black
That is a fact
My teeth are like fangs
The crowd backs away from me
Except one person
He stands his ground.
I try to fight back
but everytime I crack
He steps foward
The rest of the group are cowards.
He said "Dont let it get to you or you will be destroyed!"
I growled a reply "Save it for someone who cares!"
I slash him across the face and run away.
As I fly through the air
I wonder why anyone cares
I sit in a cave hiding
I am deep in thought
I sense a presence
He is standing in the entrance.
How did he find me?
Should I let him live?
All the questions are running through my head.
I backed away from him angry and scared
But he said " I know you think no one cares"
I back up against the wall
I was silent until i heard his call.
He appeared beside me and pulled me close
I cried out and struggled to get loose
That caused him to tighten his grip.
I cried hard against him
Struggling with something inside
Wondering why i didnt die
He sang a song and I fell asleep
He and I knew it would be back
So i slept preparing for another attack.
As I slept the rage died down
I felt safe and warm
No sound from the ground
Inside my soul was torn.
Between good and evil
Just like the yin and yang
feeling almost like a gang
The battle has just begun
and will not stop til I am done.
