In Due Season:

Life is so more than what we perceive
everchanging passions
the surroundings we breathe
sometimes we get lost in those eyes
that sparkle in the mist
recognition of the days we miss
greet them with a kiss
sometimes we get lost in ourselves
we hold so dear
unfruitful wealth
yet i am conceived in these clouds
a world awaits me
beyond the shrouds of abandonment
conviction sets in
so many battles to win
will we fade with unwritten clause?
or die soldiers for the cause
oh, how i strive
to make amends
to reconcile this flesh
and gather all broken fragments
of times my soul neglects.

this is part of an unfinished song i started writing. its about the war going on in Iraq and how the government is pretending to be the ones fighting. it doesnt have a name yet but here goes...



never mind the prophesies
never mind your social sheep
never mind those senseless skies
never mind the endless fight
as long as you strengthen your spine
leave your followers in the dust
and save your false synthetic lust

open fire, kill, then flee
the innocent fall graciously

open fire, kill, then flee
cowards awarded honorably

hullo, i've been writing quite a while now.. mostly they are supposed to be lyrics to my music but i still haven't got the music :D

this one is called Sisin

Normality
Never fits my face.
Never fits me.

It is here
It is here

Sexuality
Never fits my body
Never fits me.

I am here.
I am here.

Vociferate!
Ululate!
But never
Run free!

Fidelity
Never shows itself
When I need to be accurate.

It is there
I know It is.

Practicality
Never let me see
Never let me be.

I am there.
I am there.

Vociferate!
Ululate!
But never
Run free!

Discern!
Perceive!
And let me be
Me me me me me!

Augur!
Presage!
My free will
Is only a prisoner.

Eradigate!
Devastate!
And never let me
Know about the opportunity.

Eradigate!
Devastate!
And never let me
Know about the opportunity.

The heat of your breath on my neck
willingly our souls connect
I feel you whisper in my ear
a pumping feeling pulling us near

I reach for your face
twisting, burning for your embrace
your hands on my skin
captive feelings we won't hold within

Freely you press deep inside
pushing, our needs and desires collide
clinching fists at my side
all we hear are exhaled moans
while our bodies abide

Inciting my every volition
ripping, taunting at my submission
you lift me up to devour
pieces of my soul implode with your power

Climatically screaming
you fill the voids that keep me reeling
As we lay in abyss
a single tear escapes as I remember
this started with just a kiss

thats brilliant i would have never thought to use multiple point of views like that:)

Comment by Thalia on July 11, 2009 at 12:33am

Yes you're absolutely right. In fact, it's not only the view of someone who's not American but along the lines is also the view of an American too. So basically my goal was to make the point-of-views go back and forth.

Thalia, i am probably wrong but the "attract the hate of seven nations" and the "so long as it is them and not us" sounds kind of like its about the USA from the view of some one who is not American?
