Illuminated

Time waits for no one,
So do you want to waste some time,
Oh, oh tonight?
Don't be afraid of tomorrow,
Just take my hand, I'll make it feel so much better tonight.

Suddenly my eyes are open, 
Everything comes into focus, oh.
We are all illuminated, 
Lights are shining on our faces, blinding.

Swing me these sorrows
And try delusion for a while.
It's such a beautiful lie.
You've got to lose inhibition -
Romance your ego for a while.
Come on, give it a try.

Suddenly my eyes are open, 
Everything comes into focus, oh.
We are all illuminated, 
Lights are shining on our faces, blinding.
We are, we are, blinded,
We are, we are, blinded. [x2]

Suddenly my eyes are open, 
Everything comes into focus, oh,
We are all illuminated, 
Lights are shining on our faces, blinding
We are, we are, blinded,
We are, we are, blinded.

Bare Disorientation

Strip me down,

Away from comfort,

Away from capacity,

Watch me slither,

Towards insanity,

Towards impurity,

As my insecurities,

Initiates rage,

From what has always been,

Under your control.

Your legion consumes me,

Making me still,

In this crossroad,

Where narcissistic ways,

Feed me,

Severe angst,

Befriend me,

And solitude,

Overtakes me,

Little did I know,

This compromised position,

Is now my abode.

Written by Mervyn Richard

The Eyes of Turbulence

Innocence obliterated,

Forcing indecent gestures,

Initiating massacres,

Beyond the reach of serenity,

The effervescence in him,

To polarize himself,

From the presence of society,

Leaves him in a state.

A state of turbulence.

With sinister ways,

He slowly deposits happiness,

Leaving distinct affliction,

What he seeks,

Maybe beyond the sight of reach,

Decaying right in front of him,

Becoming a reverie,

Of things he once strive to be.

Grief has found it's casualty,

In the war,

Between him who waged a riot,

Within himself,

And the person he looks at,

In his mirror.

Twisted Turbulence.

My Heart's Sovereign

A requiem for the broken hearted,
A nascence for the a life of love.

I want to talk about someone very special to me.

Though my words may be flawed,
My intents are real,
You showed me things I haven't seen,
Showed me what I could really be,
The things you do make me love you even more,
And nevertheless,
You made me undone.

Though we had some really bitter moments,
We still stand now together,
Knowing we have enough,
If we have each other,
All I can really say is,
Though we have bad times,
We fight and things get tense,
I would still go through all of that,
Than to have the perfect moment with someone else.

You are perfect to me in ways,
Ways beyond my capability of listing,
And even if this is so cheesy,
I want you to know I mean every word.


I love you. <3

P/S. I told you I suck at writing lovey dovey stuff . I can only write poems when I'm sad. No big words so everyone can understand =P

Paradox to Happiness

Lay here a moment,

With me.

In silence we preach,

In darkness we see,

In fury we reconcile,

In sadness we smile.

For we not know;

Through silence, 

We listen.

Through darkness,

We strive.

Through fury,

We compromise.

Through sadness,

We forgive.
