Endless Circle

Endless Circle


By Kaoss


Stolen nightmares haunt ones sleep.
Never resting, never deep.
Slowly eaten from the inside
Stealing all as if one died.
Is this all to life?


A circle always spinning
Up, down, more losing than winning
Energy now failing
Cut deeply, not bleeding
Does it ever end?


The past comes haunting
And the future's quite daunting
The engine is failing
Soon sirens come wailing
No end in sight, eternity.

Death Walks

Death Walks By Kaoss Internal Darkness swarms Coalesces, increases Threatening to consume The battle begins Heralding certain doom. Overflowing ever growing Identity slipping, Chasm widens Thought colliding, will is sapped The truth now turns to lies What lived now died All that was now isn't Death eternal now reigns Reaper reborn Living death walks again All hail the eternal night.

Slipping

Slipping

 By Kaoss


The mask is slipping. Soon for all to see.
Lack of hope, emptiness and misery.
Strength depleted, but the fight continues.
Beaten, battered, near broken. Fear ensues.
No sign of winning or losing. Stalemate.
Loss of purpose, direction. Plain as day.
What will the reaction be.
Fear, loathing, apathy?
Only time will tell,
on the day  when the hand that holds the mask fell.

Solution

Solution

 By Kaoss


Withering from the onslaught of the world,
One turn within for solace.
Building walls to keep the insanity out,
forgetting the damage and insanity within.

Madness ensues, and within replicates without.
The soul withers slowly, only to die.
Balance is the key, though few find it,
And less seek it.

Open your eyes, your mind and soul.
Live, not hide. Breathe no matter
Allow the pain and madness to pass through.
Holding on to only what is needed and dear.

Corporatocracy

Corporatocracy
  By Kaoss

Through every hoop
Obedience blind
At every turn
Roadblocks thrown up
Enough to cause loss of mind.

Holding it in
Taking the lumps
Compliance complete
More walls put in place
Limbs worn to stumps.

What is the purpose
Why such a hate
No reward to the faithful,
Just abuse and malaise.
Service treated as second rate.

Locked in a loop,
No chance to escape.
Continuing to take it,
Smile on the face
Refusing to break.

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.
