The Things I love and Elempty (Free verse) by New Life Drug
There are many things I don't know.
At this moment I've collected what is for sure.
Along the ride I'll find something new.
I guess what I'll find can be thought of as a cure.
I love the smell of pancakes and syrup
I love my grandma
I love sugar and cinnamon
I love the smell of smoke
This list will be added to soon
This list along my life with continue
Things I know I'll never let go.
Certain feelings I've collected that are for sure.
I wouldn't dare say I love you-no.
Along the ride I'll find someone new.
I guess what I'll find can be thought of as pure.
Twenty years from now I can disconnect
but these will stay the same
and these things I will not forget
that is why I could never be on your list,
but that's okay.
"Elempty"
Down below in the elevator
She looks again, but no one's there
She knows he's dead, and we all fall
in the silence
And the words still linger in her mind
away with stars into purple skies, beauty hails
but only in the eyes of the cold will light appear
Deep inside she's falling less
he's already left and the dawn is breaking in...
again...
Deep inside we dont need to hear
the rave us coming-astro's concious fear
he's already in the room with dawn,
the light is off again.
No one is listening, the tables turned inside
souls fallen, no stable forgotten cries
Down in the seven avalanche, showers and waterfalls
expell green rays of sound, insane for them to hold them all
No one deciphers the terrestrial diamond
No one unlock the diamond
No one realms back to the darkness anymore...
You've got to stay
Yes you now will stay. (hey why do I say "stay" so much? does prophecy
ring a bell?)
All the buildings gone, rubble in the streets
the rain's too lonely for her, so she keeps the diamond beside her feet.
Laughing there's no one holding, holding on.
One sound, he's tuning, stop for now be quiet as time ticks on.
