The Defeated's Lament

The Defeated Lament

By Kaoss



Damnation imprisoned
For crimes of bad judgement.
Following a leader who could never win.
Trapped humiliated, doomed to repeat.
Over and over branded sin

There's no place
Also no chance  all Hope is erased.
Just this eternal dance.
Forever in a meat suit.
Doomed to watch and replay.

The promised glory dashed
Now the gloom of day to day
An endless parade
Monkeys dressed and praised
Creations big unfunny joke.

Pride gone, just a foul stench.
Of the great project
The creator's pets
But what of Our greatness
We were the first.

The cream of creation
Favored for eons
until the meat sacks arrived
Not a thing of glory.
Just dirt rearranged.

We warred for favor
Recognition, Pride and Place.
Were we not the first
Only to be cast aside
Now cast down, walking amongst
The monkeys unknown,  our Hell on Earth!

Gone

Gone

By Kaoss


Just how much
Can one take
Until they've had enough
And crack fold and break.

Who's to say
Where's the point
Once crossed
All is naught.

Walk a mile
Fake a smile
Never let it slip
The mind is lost.

Out of time
And lost in space
Darkness rules
Commonplace

What's done is done
A battle lost
Wars not over
Still climbs the cost.

Pain and fear
Spins the wheel of life
Forever dancing
On the edge of a knife.

Kill quickly
Or draw it long
Matters not
The soul is gone.

Holding out
And holding on
But for what
The purpose is gone

Gone gone
Lost for all time
Not even the Keeper
Can retrieve this mind.

Weep not
For it's a waste
Pray for reprieve
And never to taste.

Isolation

Isolation

By Kaoss


Trapped inside oneself
Not knowing how or why
Just accepting circumstance
Like a bird that's forgotten how to fly.

Limitations chain
Freezing thought and deed.
No action but inaction
Until the mind is freed.

Contemplation lacking
Caught in a web of lies
Letting hate and fear fed
Slowly the soul dies.

No wall, no real chains
Just self defeat and pity
Confining the good self
In an illusory city.

   * Isolation
     Degradation
     Self destruction
     Little hope unless one realizes
     The key to escape lies within them.
     Unlock the door
     Set themselves free.

Trepidation of whats to come
Preferring darkness, hollow calm
Outside is a maelstrom
For which there is no balm.

Merry-Go-Round forever spinning
No release no slowing
Fear, self hatred, resentment
Unchained and quickly growing.

Beaten and battered by oneself
Near to the point of surrender
Self pity takes control
Shields the self from eternal splendor.


Break the chains
Unseal the inner door
Set yourself free
Life hold so much more.

       * Isolation
     Degradation
     Self destruction
     Little hope unless one realizes
     The key to escape lies within them.
     Unlock the door
     Set themselves free.

Aimless

Aimless

By Kaoss


No focus
Very little drive
It's a wonder
How they survive

Little time
Fewer cares
Nothing happens
they're not there

Not a clue
What life's about
Oh so lazy
Whisper? No shout!

Sheep asleep
No will, no spine
Ooo shiny
Another glass of wine

At life the pretend
Fooling themselves
Not a thought
Or a wit amongst
Yet they continue
Blind and aimless
A sad caricature
Of potential lost
Pointless and wasted
They clammer on.

No hope
Help long gone
Shattered yet here
Hey get off the lawn

Non compos mentis
Left alone
wandering the countryside
Empty No home

Up on the Hill
No truth Just lies
the sheep they swallow
Until they die

Leaking faucet
Thoughts drip from the brain
No one to weep for    
A nation insane

Do it!

Do it!

By Kaoss


Empty Hours lead to empty days
Weighing you down filled with strife
Don't go down without a fight
Dig in, do your best
MAKE REAL THE DREAM, IT'S YOUR LIFE!

Wasted time adds up to wasted years
That become a wasted life
Don't let it happen this way
Stand up, Throw down
Take it, break it
MAKE IT WORTH THE PRICE YOU PAY!

Hour after hour passing soon lost
Never again to be regained
Take control, achieve your goal
Turn it all around
Go all in, Fight for the win
SOON YOUR SORROW WILL CHANGE!

Do it
Never look back.
Do it
Go on the attack
Just do it
Never say die!
Follow your dreams
Let life fly
Just DO IT!

Desolation's Stroll

Desolation's Stroll
  By Kaoss

Walking the halls
that is my mind
I am greeted by
the desolation
and utter wasteland.

Broken dreams
And shattered schemes
Litter the way,
Faded glory
And long lost hope.

All that was
and that will never be
Laid out for me
Destroyed all
Yet I continue.

Wasted time
As well as lost
Lie rusted,burned
Nothing gained
Or even learned.

Wandering wondering
What went wrong
Why all this loss
Pain and disillusion
Yet I continue onward.

Once prized memories
Lay in fetid pools
Nightmares dance joyous
Madness gains a foothold
Yet I still continue.

Is it foolish pride
That drives this shell
Wandering in this,
Desolated hell
Unsure why I continue.

Haunted by what could have been.
Angered by what should have.
Comforted by the tatters of what is.
What was and what is
Battle for control, supremacy.

Shattered and battered
by the desolate wasteland
Knowing all is really lost
Hope lies broken burned
Yet I continue.

State of Mind

State of Mind
  By Kaoss

Body Broken
Soul soon to follow
Naught left but memories
And those have soured

Meaning of life lost
Empty and devoid
Wrong turn or fate
Who cares it's too late

Trapped and waiting
Mental state shot
What a wonderful fate
Left out to rot

Bitter and angry
Ones only friends
Who stick it out
Until the end

This this just bitching
Or some inner reveal
It's hard to tell
when one can no longer feel

Time stretches
a horrid charade
Thoughts they wander
From weird to macabre
