Pendulum

There she was, standing right in front of me. A vision so clear and strong which made me believe I could move mountains. All the experiences, of which my hardened heart could do nothing as its defences faltered. An impression so vivid and lasting - that you are the one. Unbreakable, unchangeable. Ideals that will never fall. Intersected, my mind was at peace, thinking of a future that was promising and satisfying. Even though your sword was hanging over my head, supported by just a thin thread, I believed I could support it. The promise of a impenetrable wall, built on flawed objectives, was naive. As I stand in the center of it all, watching everything collapse around me. Oh how I blamed time and space - an eternally frictionless gradient to nowhere. Thoughts left unspoken, as you covered your eyes and left.



The pendulum swing continues...

Overtaken

I used to think my life was a good one,
didn't need to think and just had fun,
Threw everything just for that someone,
Didn't know my fall had just begun.

Thought I had friends that I could depend on,
yes they were there when they needed funds,
But turn around and I needed someone,
That's when they all began to run.

I'm so overtaken, by people I used to trust,
I must be mistaken, on grounds I'm losing fast.
So don't you turn around, or I will catch you,
and make you pay for what you've done.
