William King Jr.

Night life slowly fades into the dawn
And the man in the west moon now sleeps
Dreams soon set themselves aside
And the reality of the day sets in
...

You bleed pain like a hemophiliac with a slit wrist.
I try to add loving pressure but you resist.
You bleed on everyone around you forcing onto them your pain.
You don't care who you bleed around.
...

There are nights
When I sit up in my bed
Tears streaming down my face
Because I know you aren’t there
...

Visions as I look in the mirror
I always stare at your picture
Thinking back on all the fun we had
Now my soul feels sad
...

Who is the one to say that all can't be forgiven?
To condemn me to sorrow and a life of regret?
To make my life not ever worth living
And make my love not worth the get?
...

I tread lightly down the guided path
The image of her still burns within my mind
Her soul lost, cold and tortured
Forever in immortal pain
...

All alone on this barren Earth I walk
My legs never tiring from my unforgiving pace
Everyone around me is gone so I don't talk
A hardened look of cold is burned into my face
...

The night lasts forevermore as the sun drifts away
Darkness grows by the second as the night takes over the day
Cold once again rules supreme as heat slowly dies
Evil lurks all around as the hope for good dies
...

These same four walls surround me
Day in and day out
All day, everyday
These same four white walls
...

My brain blazes at high speeds
Time slows down all around me
Getting hard to breathe
Your love is slowly fading
...

Emotions run wild as I fight off these feelings
My fists ready to destroy all in my path
My eyes turn red as anger fills me
My muscles tense as fists clench closed
...

Rose of infinite beauty
I see your smile
Never to see
Your smile become a frown
...

Crush all their souls
And devour the hearts
Of men who disobey
The commands of the legions
...

Hope controls motivation limits
And keeps all alive; those who believe in it
For with hope
You know you've been defeated
...

I lay down my sword and my shield and I think
Could Lucifer and Satan, the Gods, really be beat
And give up their thrones
To mortal flesh and bone.
...

Eyes are wide shut running blind in the dark
As dogs bark and torches burn brightly against the night
Running for life that is no longer important
Feeling my way around the dark
...

The surroundings of hell seem too plain to me
Carnage, gore and screams of terrible pain
All of which have played through my head
As I lived every single day
...

Dying will be the death of me
No longer a puppet of life
Feelings beyond recognition
Is the pain I feel tonight
...

When cornerstones of life start to break down
And the sanity of man begins to fail
When the impurities of the heart begin to show
And the calamity of what we have done sets the love to sail
...

All the tears have fallen from my face, sullying the land with sorrow.
No more love emits from my heart; no today and never tomorrow.
For lo, alas the horizon of an orange sol
My future of loneliness had already been foretold.
...
