The tales written on these walls


These tales were written on these walls
Peaceful nights
Coal for the fire in the coldest hearts
Eyes are shut but the ears hear the footsteps behind the walls.
Light wrestles the overwhelming darkness
That cast spell and brings fear
Which day is less darker and strange?
 Where is the watchman that survives a day to tell the story?

The hearts of men pound
Some for fear and others for evil
The order is a sequel
That so many read about but disbelieved
Until they met the devil in the book.
Men play hide and seek with the enemy
And the lads learn the coward-way
These were the tales written on these walls.
The Danes and arrows; the unused toys
Buried in the basement for the days of sport
And hearts beat like drums
Yet the drumming grows quieter before death.
They die before knowing death
They leave without footprints
They robbed life the many years it wanted to stay
It still is the same today.

Thought We'd

Thought we'd throw the keys away Smile innocently, Thought we'd share a glimpse of the moon Outside my corridor Alas I forgot so soon That breath was the lord's. I became as pale as you were When your lungs were weary and worn Lost like the hope that came first Dreadful like an evening without trust Out there it was cold and you shivered Your sheets didn't save you You tongue was filled with prayers unfiltered And you wondered what you did to deserve this. Oh I thought we'd hold hands as we walk past the sellers We'd smile and learn how to step dance I am not awaken anymore than I am dead I realise the stories weren't tales while I was here But she said it anyways "when I die bury the flower too".
