Agony of Waiting


I told you, once, forever ago, that I would go to your funeral. I'd lay one white rose on your grave, turn and walk away.

You're too young for red. Pink was never your colour. Too pure for purple, black, yellow, or orange. And blue...kiddo, you're beige eyes would never see that as beautiful. It's white, for all your lost innocence, and all that you had, but threw away.

One white rose...and every year I'll come back and lay one white rose on your grave, even when no one else remembers.

I've begged and pleaded, bargained, explained, asked, listened, talked, yelled...I can't take anymore. You didn't even last an hour after you promised...

I keep hoping and praying, I want you to pull through. Waiting on this side for what may never happen...

May the moon stop shining...

I dedicate this song to you...
And this to me...

In Dedication

To all the fire fighters anywhere in the world. May the moon stop shining...

Aodhan, my love, please, come back to me...always come back to me...

For Brittany

Victory inhibit
Let go of my hand
If you can't learn to fly
You can't learn to stand

If I am your hero
Dark angels are we
Listening to voices
Living through dreams

With sadness and mercy
The day must dawn
Creating a world
Where children aren't young

An echo, a shade
Glimmer from the past
This knowledge that comes
What we learn last

Though creatures all
We are a different strain
Similar and yet
Not quite the same

Something forbidden
In shades of grey
A mixture, a blend
Leading this way:

Step into the sun
Step into the night
Creature of darkness
Creature of light

Survivor's Song

The raging ones in silence sleep
Beneath the mind of all the numb
Into each house the darkness creeps
Bind together, make us one

And fire is the light of life
Desire old as blowing wind
Burns as sharp as jaded knives
Oh, tattoo on us our sin

Wretched survivors, like broken glass
Rise from the ashes to the sky
From the gates, allow us pass,
Allow our souls go by

One last time, in silence sleep
Touch hearts that shatter hard as bone
And in our rage, the darkness reap
That makes us stand alone




Credit must go to Cocaine Jesus and Aodhan for the inspiration ^_^
