Memories In Monochrome

Black and white, faded photographs
Archived in my mind, flickers of vitality
A stage where search for blame ends
A stage of rest and final peace
The battered soul's journey
A strife for the end's resolve
How did I reach the end of roads unaware?
How did I become a ghost premature?
How did I reach the end of roads unaware?
How did I become a ghost premature?
Nothing left but the long road back
The slow retreat to where we came from
Ash to ash, dust to dust
Eroding grain of sand

Words and concepts, one as tied as the other
Eleven months of labour with nothing to show but
Slow departure of mind and body
Grand delusions on the brink of collapse
Coexistence, a distressing pastime
Weakness uncovered in somnilent days
The slow unwinding of our tormented spirits
Emergence of truths well behind the veil
The mirror fails to hide decay of passing hour
The every day construct, slow bane of our pale existence
Every flicker from afar, a mirage of a contentment
To surrender to the ghosts in the periphery
A bittersweet temptation, the residue of dreams
In them I seek what cannot be found
In them I seek the long lost flair of life

The gloomy Tuesday ambience
A void of thoughts profound
To see the cracks with sharpened vision
The shadow I've become, and the tragedy I lead
What am I, but last light of a fading season?
Food for the insatiable
The fragile caress of the cold spring rain
The tattered subway stairs
My weary footsteps on the asphalt
I could watch this fade, and never look back
Discard the shallow comfort of things I own
My mind is starved of new impressions
Beyond the idle smile, a quenched longing for rebirth
I could watch this fade, and never look back
Discard the shallow comfort of things I own
The fragile caress of the cold spring rain
The tattered subway stairs
My weary footsteps on the asphalt
