From past to present


Not sure what to say about this, just words that made their way to paper I guess (and then computer screen of course). ^_^


"Younger than one should be
Life showed itself far too soon
Awakened ahead of time
Forced into the darkness of night
Leaving the light behind

Shy sparks of color came and went
As souls arrived and parted
Flickering moments of hope
Painting the world, otherwise dead

Never a spirit likeminded
And most with baggage to share
They drifted through, leaving nothing when done
And out of all, none to stay

Strength all gone and defiance worn out
Settlement was arranged
Never alone, but mostly lonely
Hours became days and days went on for years

Decades past and nothing changed
While not in pain, still not living
Not sleeping, yet not awake
The world still in shades
Shades of grey"

===============================

"Memories of different times already past
Dark Peace sheltered by the night
Numbness that didn't feel wrong
Time that stood still and life that never was

After nightfall defenses were high
Distance was safety, silence was wise
Watching the world through a tinted glass
Nothing came through, no one could pass

Observing life's passing a reflection appeared
Someone on the other side, someone looking inn
As if there were no blockage he made his way through
Shattered the glass and brought time back too

As time caught up to present it hit the ground hard
Walls crumbled down and the light reemerged
With no guards left and nowhere else to hide
Resistance seemed pointless, surrendered at last

Pride set aside and taking a look around
Shadows faded away leaving a colorful sight behind
Swapped freedom for chains, no regrets attached
Never experienced before, defeat as such a prize"
