searching through this world of hell,
you've reached your hand out for the kindest sinner.
we can not wait, we have to escape,
for together we are one,
for together we can not break.
phantoms of past pages will find us
and try to sour our goals and get in our way.
We walk on the narrowest line above their reach,
if we have to look, we will leap and
our memories of each other will be destroyed one by one.
through struggle we will find absolution,
our destiny will spiral towards the gods,
and if we press on, we will find love
buried beneath the greatest X on any map.
tomorrow scares us more than today.

Abandon Hope,Begin Destruction
Abandon hope,
begin destruction...
Here we are just like you,
standing together without arms.
Eyes stretching from all corners,
to see past the curtains of steel.
Abandon hope,
begin destruction...
Honor the Blind that create the Deaf,
nothing more than faithful to the ugliest of visions,
we call for a Hero thats always nearby,
someone we rely on for when we need a good lie.
Abandon hope,
begin destruction...
Glistening in flames, we seek truth,
weaving our struggles with that of our fathers' cries,
our dwarfish fingers always craving for more and more
if there is a god, then we are the Whores.

Gone but still here,
losing myself in the fear,
I have taken my time,
but I paid for my crime,
and here I stay.
Here I stay.
Content but uncomfortable,
Aware yet abnormal.
Focused, just not caring.
Redefining my unbinding,
Lying and no longer trying get away with it,
playing with these masks,
no longer concealing it.
Combing out my desireless treason,
Engaging it fruitless efforts,
Killing off these beautiful memories,
this is my life without you.
Dwelling on my dwellings,
my sins are falling out of line,
polluting the miracles that hold up this heavy crown,
when will I find the time to fix this mess?
Never, I hope.
Once again, you're in my head.
and once again,
I think about the words I should have said.
You and me,
and me and you.
A simple crush,
waiting to bloom.
Wanting eyes wanting you.
Wanting eyes wanting truth.
How do you feel?
Do I want to know?
An answer I fear and desire,
If you tell me the truth,
I'll call you a liar.
Its never been like this,
so I'm lost and confused.
What do I say?
What do I do?
Should I ask,
should I tell?
Let it be, or let it go?
In the end,
will I know?
Being blunt and knowing why,
I think you're beautiful,
and thats no lie.
What I fear is feeling too much.
Feeling too much?
A call and I'm back,
with feelings that I won't retract.
One more chance to see you again,
one more chance to feel you with in.
Again, together!
But far apart.
It was clear what I wanted to happen,
my plan for you,
my plan of action.
Nerves carved from a coward,
a boy hallowed out by denial between his eyes.
Quick and fun,
we were having our time.
A joke and a not care,
you looked so pretty,
your eyes,
your body,
your hair.
But now,
this time,
you had to leave first.
And I didn't want it.
You leaving,
me staying,
it didn't seem appropriate.
I wanted to hold you,
if to only keep you away from the door.
Now,
I want

Ch.1 A Shade Above Wonderful
It was like I woke up.
I've seen and talked to you many times before,
but this was different.
Why?
Nothing new,
nothing changed.
But suddenly,
when I looked at you,
I felt a shade above wonderful.
A flirt, and a physical exchange.
A smile only headed my way.
Staring and not caring.
Not gawking, but watching.
Graceful and smooth,
and that was only the sight of you.
The day was coming to a close,
fast and unwanted.
Stretching the minutes,
and stealing the seconds,
soaking in the moment like it was the last.
But then it was time.
Leaving didn't seem right,
but it had to be done.
Gone, behind me,
the sapphires in which I
Spit the beauty as far as you choose.
Lack the drive to complete the lessons you'll lose.
Paint the barrier to the limitless garden of sorrows,
the seeds you plant are the pains you borrowed.
Nevermore will your poison tree feed,
nevermore will its ambitions succeed.
Deny your inability to see through the clear,
the darkness you describe is what you stay near.
The paradox you present when you explain love,
is similar to that of a black colored dove.
Tomorrow's soldiers are yesterday's tragedies,
and today's whores will forever be their causalities.
Decide whether you want to destroy the impossible
or live with the idea of buildin
Im sorry it took me so long to doubt you
Crawling under a fist of denial,
Laugh at the rest as you make your arrival
Watch as the wrath become so clear
Their troubles you will undoubtedly smear.

We never needed a pity statement,
All we cried for was a better settlement.
Are we on primetime or just another page to turn?
This is not an epic moment,
This is an epidemic movement.
Feeling disgusted because of the sickness our homes are infested with,
Youre the clot,
Youre the fat,
You are this country's heart attack.
We, the people,
Not, the meat.
We, the innocent,
We cannot retreat.

just for a little bit,
just for an innocent,
you'll spare some time,
your precious time,
for me,
please, only me.

ill kneel before you,

you hate it.
and you,
just you,
can only rape it.

i am nothing to you.
smile with frowns,
with no skin,
laughing away,
crying away,
have a nice time
and soak in the day.
the day isn't over,
and your time isn't up.
take away the scream,
and we're all the same.
we've all had a hard time,
so lets not be dramatic
when we all don't shine.
This is
my last dying wish.
I hope,
you'll find love without me.
And I tried,
but you didn't care.
I cried my heart dry,
I bled for you.
All you could say was,
that we aren't meant to see the good, the bad,
or life with each other, together, forever.
If this was my last breath,
I'd lose it to you.
Everyday you are in pain,
I'll be in pain not knowing what you're going through.
Wishing I could help from across the room,
losing control when I see the cold blue you,
searching with your eyes the outside life that holds truth,
loving you even when love is the last thing you need to occupy you.
I would do anything for you,

Look and watch the attraction,
Seeing something that you could never be.
You say we're all to blame,
Ugly paranoia makes you hate everything.
You stare and watch us, all of us, cry for you.
But then you start to think we've lied to you.
When really it was you who lied to you.
Sometimes.
Something creates the glare.
Now scared, you disguise your life, your nightmare.
Somewhere.
Something you've always feared.
Now all you do is stop and stare.
Look and watch the attraction,
Seeing something you used to be.
You have no one to blame,
The mirror in your heart screams in vain.
You used to think of us, all of us, lived for you.

I can't get you out of my mind.
You haunt my dreams, infest in time.
You tare down my walls, rebuild the pain.
And when it comes down to it,
I'm to blame.
Gone through shadows, seen my time.
Where's my crucifix? I've left it behind.
I try to hide, I tried to hard.
Gone in circles, newly founds scars.
All around me, the shame rains,
You cut through my heart, you feel no pain.
And here I am, again to blame.
My time of fear.
My time is near.
The world of disorder,
that pandemonium steers.
Pain fills the room, blood drips clear.
We all look, but act unaware.
Give me back what is mine...
I gave you yours, and theirs.
This pain I'm fed,
it can't be said.
I feel like should do something,
but I know I'll end up with nothing.
This hue, so blue,
You knew, didn't you?
The tears I've cried,
to hide them I've tried.
So many faces I can't place,
but their memories I embrace.
I'm losing what I never had,
but in the end, I think I'm glad.

You Only Helped It To Diminish
Seems like we kept finding each other,
happy one minute, sad another.
I liked laughing with you,
and talking to you for what seemed like forever.
However the good times never lasted forever,
and we constantly saw that as we hurt each other.
Forgiving all those times you said "why should we bother?"
forgetting all those times you said does it matter?"
Maybe that was a sign,
that we weren't suppose to be together.
However, I don't believe in signs,
maybe thats why things never got better.
Why was it that some things couldn't be said until later?
Having to put on the pressure made me feel like a traitor,
but you not telling m
The way I hide when I'm in your light,
the filthy tingling I get when I'm not right,
I ask all the questions and ignore all the answer,
I sit back, relax, and wait for disaster.
Wondering why I keep holding on,
when its clearly know, you're already long gone.
I don't understand why I say these things anymore,
maybe when I don't, I treat myself like a whore?
They just come back without my attention,
the techniques I used to ignore them,
are my greatest inventions.

2008. A new year, hopefully a better year.
I'm going to try new styles of writing and hopefully better myself.
I also hope more people will see my writing, thus offering some much needed criticism.
Newly added " A Shade Fearing" was posted today. Like the rest of the other SHADE submission, I quite enjoyed writing it and am happy with its final draft.
Maybe you will feel the same?
hey there, long time no see. Just wanted to say that new animation I talked about a long long time ago?? Well its finally up here and on newgrounds. Its called KIN trailer. Just thought I'd tell you because I came across our old conversation on :thumb19521402: and thought you'd like to see my latest.
