    Deceased by His Greed

    It doesn’t happen everyday
    So much love just strays away
    I’m caught between my words and the world

    There’s no balance to fit my sorrows
    But I can’t pretend there’s no tomorrow
    When there are no emotions I can borrow

    I’m lost in the sound of music we both love
    Some day I’ll find you so high above
    The grass, the trees, the skyline, the clouds
    In dreams I’ll find you talking loud
    You’ll tell me you’ve been there all along
    Standing, waiting, and hearing our songs
    Play over and over

    Until one day you found an image
    While searching through your brain
    That you knew could never be the same
    If you didn’t have the real thing
    So you had to bring me up
    Lay death upon me with your stares
    I’m here but still always there
    In limbo and there’s no balance

    No balance to fit my sorrows
    And now there is no more tomorrow
    Lifeless with no emotions to borrow

    sad and so emotional

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
