Wake Of This Mourning

Drowning in sleep,
Wake of this mourning,
Wake up this morning,
Wishing it was a dream,
Sorrow overwhelming.

Pipe organs,
Tears,
Coffin,
Sending your soul.

Wash away,
Step forward,
Forget,
Pain,
Loss.

I'll be with you soon.

The Devil's Cry

This isn't exactly a piece of poetry, but the lyrics to this song from the video game Devil May Cry 3, truly appeal to me. Enjoy!


Searching for the cure for soul's demise
Read the tears of the victim's cries
You'll need more to kill the suffer of a
Brother demon that’s a purely wonder
Kill before the time, kill them all
Blast out the righteous mark
Serving justice that dwells in me.
Nothing comes as far as the eye can see
The eye can see
The eye can see
The eye can see


We are falling
the night is calling
tears inside me
calm me down

Bless me with the
leaves off of the tree
on it, I see
the freedom rain

We are falling
the night is calling
she is inside me
going down

Midnight calling
live softly, slowly
drowning with the
love we need

Bless me with the
leaves off of the tree
on it, I see
the freedom rain

Praised to my father
Blessed by the water
Black night, dark skies
The Devils cry!

Enlightenment

Pondering the road, and its many a fault,
Remembering the illusion, walls hidden of vault.
Confined in this existence, the world a mere delusion,
All we hold dear, is nothing but confusion.

Let go and be free, never giving a second thought,
To rid yourself of confinement, and happiness naught.
Breaks the chains of mortality, nirvana's divine ascension,
Bring forth unending bliss, the final formless dimension.

Multiplying convening joy, infinitely amplifying,
Surging with love and pleasure, no physical presence.
Soul, mind, and spirit, into the plane of omniscience,
With overwhelming delight of pure conscience.


-Devin Gaughan

Awakened

Something sleeping,
inside of me,
has woken up,
like a,
Queen bee.

Demanding everything,
to heed command.
March forward,
and obey the crown.

Led to victory,
never again to frown,
winning path,
a million drums pound.

Long live the Queen.
