Eyes stoic amongst the smoke
Gazes upon this mental haze
Dreaming beyond everything
Piercing through the gray
Beyond the ashes
Beyond it all
Into something different
Anew
Somehow, someway
There must be a way
One without limitations
Growing into a crystal cleansing
As everything becomes clearer
Traveling on and on
Beyond this stinging smoke
Eyes set full of desire
Upon a dreamful metaphor
Where wishes become fulfilled
Visions supplied of their worth
Unlimited in this quest
Where everything is freed
Up and ready to fly away
And then there will be no haze
As dreams shine beautifully with grace
Freeing self of this self-imprisonment
By crying out the ashes from these eyes
That once stood dormant in utter seclusion
Just a moment
If there was just a moment
I would share it all with you
Shining out the dreary gray
In a little piece of a moment's oasis
Seeking refuge
In a sanctuary heart's
Built for two
Yet, if need be
It would only be for you
Wishing beyond the smoke
In a paradise anew
Does it all exist?
Who knows?
Still, I keep on dreaming
Till I can no longer
Dream anymore
Will the smoke beyond your view ever clear?
At least for a moment's view?
Somehow, Someway
I must make it so
I wish you saw this soul
It holds more importance
Than you will ever know
More important than any object
That I have ever or will ever own
Possessions mean not a thing
In the spirit's sense
Of the endurance of one's soul
Can you see my beyond?
Underneath the many flaws
Love, honor and rejoice
Will you ever take the time to truly know?
Mirrors are nothing but deceiving metaphors
They can never travel into the deepest regions within
This flesh resides in nothingness
As everything will always reflect from my enduring soul
Still though, I admit
I am stoic amongst the smoke
Stuck within its mental haze
But I know I am more powerful
Than even myself with ever know
And I will always fight against it
Till I can no longer fight anymore
Does this mean anything?
If not at all
These words I create
I wish for them
To grow beyond
Into something way much more
These current times
Are not for me to resolve
But the future is my cleansing
As all these past pains
Someday, I will finally
Let loose and dissipate this chaos
Leaving it all to fester away
And finally dissolve
What happens next?
The beauty is
Who really knows?
I wish for this soul was seen over my flesh
I wish this smoke finally clears
Even if you still cannot see my soul
At least you can look up upon the stars
Was I ever good enough?
That is for the biggest picture
To ever know
Someday the wind will chase away the smoke
And everything will always be beautiful
Were you always the smoke on my screen?
Please tell me that was never true
That is the only time I want to hear the word, no
I shall cry these ashes
Straight down these enduring eyes
And seize these endless gazes
Straight into rejoice
Eyes scarred by the smoke
Yet, all is amazing
All is wonderful
Because they make these visions ever stronger
Upon a healthier mentality
Beyond the stars and straight into rejoice
Still dreaming
Till I can no longer dream no more
Call me, label me what you like
But I will never be anything
But my own
I found out how strong I was
Once these eyes were engulfed in smoke
Where do you see me now?
Oh, well
I will be the one someday
To never carry
The burden of remorse
So who is truly lonely?
When all is said and done
Forlorn
