The Scales of Egypt

Lover hidden in the Sands
My heart resides in Ancient Lands
Under the deserts burning gaze
We met- my Heart was set ablaze

I traveled far, across the waste
Three days I trekked, onward I paced
I searched, for what was yet unknown
I wandered onward on my own

Until at last, with rising dawn
I found, to what, I had been Drawn
Upon a Temple, fell my sight
I followed inward, toward the Light

A Fountain stood, its Water gleamed
A Thirst, profound, came over me
By waterside, stone and cold
Stood statued figures, new and old

Marble women sitting down,
Stately children, gathered round
Amongst the Courtyard, strewn about
But thier pose inspired Doubt

A single Sip, within a Blink
And all were frozen in mid-drink
I stopped and looked, I noticed how
Off to the side, a Shadow now

And their you stood, the Test complete
The Time and Place we were to Meet
There wasn't Time, I couldn't stay
We'll meet again another Day

Just Ramblings :)

To Go Inside
She Knows
She Knows
Is Death to All
Who Go
Who Go
And Still She Feels Compelled
She's Drawn
She Wanders In
She Wander On
And Water Dripping
Falling Down
Her Thirst
Such Thirst
It Overwhelms
She Stops To Look Around
Around
And Nothing Makes A Sound
No Sound
Statues Litter Cobblestone
The Courtyard Seems
So Overgrown
Inside
She Knows
Is Doom To All
But Just One Sip
Cant Be So Bad
Thats All They Had
Thats All They'll Have
One Sip
One Sip
Is All It Took
To Freeze Them There
The Girl She Shook
No Sip
No Sip
For Me
Says She
My Thirst Is Not So Great
You See
And Outward
Out She Wanders Now
Forward
Away
She Passed The Test
But What About The Rest
The Rest?

Descent Part II : Fall Again

Madness falls
A shadowed curtain
Living in the words Unspoken
Lies are whispered in my voice
A noose that comforts and destroys
The world is breaking
Cracking in
Chances for construction:
Slim
Within without And not at all
I Fall
I Fall
I Fall
I Fall
Ebbs of clarity
The Tide
Of Sanity
Inside my Mind

Descent Part I

Falling down

She wonders How

The light has ever touched the depths

And now when life

Comes falling through

The curtains close

And all is Through

All is done

All is complete

A fleet

Which fell

Could not compete

And summer's song

Dissembled

Broken

Lives Within the Words Unspoken
