No Man's Land...

The planes overhead sway out of control
While I lay here, yelling and wounded
No help coming, is no one alive?
All the hopes, all that strife.

A mine blast, somewhere close by
Another one down, goodbye comrade
Close my eyes as someone approaches
The enemy, he must be, won't budge.

The smell of gun powder, the last cries of many
I hear them ringing in my head constantly
Will take my time to see what we did to this place
As home is farfetched a thought now, rest in peace.

This used be a place, beautiful and plush green
Now only covered with corpses, guns and shells
The sky's all brown, a shade of red too
That's what we have made of it, an act too cruel.

No going back now, though the past comes to mind
The happy little life too, that I left behind
A week before it was that I was with them
All left to die now, didn't even say goodbye.

I heard the trucks, and the cheering soldiers too
Singing the victory song, all too familiar
We hadn't lost after all, the battle's won
The cork shall fly, the champagne shall flow.

Haunted by the thought that I'm left behind
All forgotten, they must think I'm dead
A flare I'd fired, waiting for them to return
It's been two days now, can't move and I'm on my own.

Pray for them people, pray for their souls,
The dead didn't see it coming, the silence shows
The many that died, the many I killed
Am better of dead too, at a point of no return.

Worth The Wait...

The letter's on the table
Remember I said I'd leave?
Read it, when you may
Know I'll miss you day by day.

Said things I should never have
Can't take them back, now it's too late
See you one day, wait till then
Things shall be better, hope the same.

Could have written more things down
Could have waited till Junior'd be back home
But I can't do that you know
Make him go through all that.

The car should be here by now
A last minute note this is
I'm sorry again, keep writing
Cause I'm sure I'd reply.

Pray for the day the white flags show
Cause there's no better place than home
Know I'll miss you, the toddler too
Will make it back, Don't give up too soon.

All To No Avail...

Kill time when you least have it
Pull the trigger when the barrel's empty
Stand there and frown straight at the mirror
Shout the loudest when no one's around.

Read that book in haste when it's only all yours
Drive that car too fast when you know you're the one paying
Drink from the bottle when you're already wasted
Save that bitter syrup for later when you know you really need it.

Take that dope, hide it when the coplights appear.
Swallow that pill of yours and lose yourself
Take that last step at the edge of the cliff
Try taking back what you said, as the tears trickle down.

Blow the horn after everyone's dead
Blow that ticker, disturb the peace
Dense the clouds with what you smoke
Give them the justice they don't deserve.

Chase a hurricane coming your way
Belt that television screen after the last run
Take that bet knowing you've already lost it
Talk to the walls awaiting a reply.

Check your watch a little too late
Follow things thanks to just the hype
Loosen the grip over things when you can't afford to
Just open your eyes, You already have.

Man In The Dark...

He talks whenever he wants to
Sees things and falsely judges
Tells me what he wants me to do
The victim I am, building up grudges.

While he sits back, as always, smiling
They punish me for his ideas and acts
To stay away is what I'm always trying,
Do as I say or suffer, such are the pacts.

Right when and where I don't want him to be
A shame he is to my very name
Making me pull off tricks as the many eyes see
Failing to know this is my life, not a game.

Have made it this far, how much farther can I go
As he mercilessly, plots and orders me around
I'll be behind bars one day and everyone will know
As over and over again, guilty, I'm found.

Can't block him out, can't shoot him down
Because it's always he who will decide
Two faces of the very same coin we are
Well, after all, he's my other side.


- Problems a guy with MPD might face....

The Pages Turn...

Long time since I picked up a book
To read and look through every nook
Now I wonder what it'll take, for me
To finish the book in hand, let's see.

Unputdownable, they say, this one is
A book many hype, one not worth the miss
Something inside, tells me I'll love it
Will read on, as against the wall I sit.

As the many hours quickly pass by
So do the fresh pages, it's no lie
Go on, if I may, this way
Will finish by dawn, sure to say .

As the lights go off outside
Feel, to this book, I'm tied
Unlike before, my eyes ain't drooping
Awake I shall be, let morning come, shining.

In no way is it a big one, am almost at the ending,
Eleven pages to go, am nowhere close to sleeping
Wanna finish it fast, the bulb's getting dimmer
Have to race against time, as the chances look slimmer.

As the sun in all its glory appears, so does, on my face, a smile
With the bulb burning out, the last page will have to wait a while
Curious to know, I run to the armchair outside, with a deep sigh
As it turns out, the story's a tragedy, and I'm left wondering "Why?!"
