Scars

These scars
Are tales written in pain
Lyrics of a dark gloomy pursuit
A fruitless pursuit for happiness

They tell of the ups and downs
Of the joys and tears

These scars
are a history
A story of infinite pursuits
A story of this person

They tell of the dreams and nightmares
of the successes and failures

And like a shadow
They live to eternity
Branded on this soul

Doomed

In my darkest hour
When nothing matters
I hope I live
For something bigger
For something worth dying for
I hope I live
Beyond yesterday and tomorrow
Beyond today
I hope I live
In the hearts and minds of time
In the hearts and minds I cherished
I hope I live
On the never ending cusp of time
On the edge of endlessness

Or am I doomed?

Ode to a Chameleon

Old lizard

Though you change a million times

Your are the truest of them all

They have known your form

They have seen your colours

But no one knows for sure

If you are green, brown or another 

Yet no one sleeps with an eye open 

Hoping to catch you in your menace 

They know they will never round-up 

Your infinite colors 

You are a breath of change 

You are nature's kaleidoscope

They can never tell your color 

Though you have never failed 

To rise from within a burst of color

And amuse the eyes of the beholder 

They love your colors

Oh mirror of your environment 

They love their colors 

Though they deny

They are ever changing

Just like you

They love your colors 

They love their colors
