The Lonely Tower

High, upon a hill
There stands a lonely tower
Steadfast and strong
Through ages it remains
A relic of a bygone age
Left to rot alone
Stark against the dimming sky
Black, even to the night
A monument?
A legacy?
A testament?
A prophecy?
Stood so long against decay
Yet now succumbing to nature's way
This tower, this monolith will fall away
Into the earth, it will crumble and fade
Like all things, be they great or small
This lonely tower, like us all
Will disappear as though it never stood at all
Forgotten, lost, as is our fate
To return unto the earth, to crumble back into dirt
Stood so long against decay
Yet now succumbing to nature's way
This tower, this monolith will fall away

A Faceless Figure
02:37
|

Walking the silent streets
A chill festers in the air
Vision begins to blur
Clouds descend
Temperature drops
Every breath
Lost in the fog
The freezing fog
A lamp becomes
A glowing orb
Dim
In the endless haze
Shivering
I am frozen
To the very core
Of my being
Who am I?
A faceless figure
One with nothing
Lost
In the freezing fog

A Reflection
07:24
|

I
Gaze
Into
Mine own
Eyes!
Pondering
My existence
Staring
Into myself
Looking
At my own
Soul
Traversing
Darkest depths
Of my
Inner Self
I
Search
For
A
Deeper
Meaning
To
Make worth
Of this
Temporal flame
I must
Give birth
To my
Eternal name
I
Gaze
Into
My eyes
Suddenly I realize
What I truly am
A momentary flame
That will soon fade
My light
Gone
From
And for
All time
Extinguished
Never to burn again
I
Search
For
A
Deeper
Meaning
I
Search
For
The
Truth
What
Is
The
Answer?
The great question
Forever unanswered
Pondering
My existence
Staring
Into myself
Looking
At my own
Soul
I
Gaze
Into mine own
Eyes!
