THISISJOHN

So this is it?
Will broken-hearted blood stains
Leap from my past
To steal and kill and destroy
All that I have worked for?

My courage and my foolishness
Are but one team
And I thought in oil and water
Only to find blood and sweat
The juices that flow
From my very being

I try to listen to you, heart
Even in the calm
But the voices in my head,
Singing
The songs in my mind,
Droning

This is all for the pale
For the lifeblood I would steal
Through the windows
Living a li(f)e
And finding my Holy Grail

You might see me dance
With the angels
And smile
But I will tell you this:
They all forget my name
