Looking to Paradise A sad tale about a boy who lost his cheerios. Digital Ebola /* note, I usually rm anything I write that is poetic. I am taking a different stance.. if its good, then hooray, and if it sucks, I can torture people with it... I really need to invest in poetry appreciation chairs. =) */ I am on the outside looking to a place that I will never go Paradise awaits me but only in my dreams will I ever see the way The place I have visited peaceful and serene almost surreal I could die there No regrets for me If only it was for me I see her face in my dreams beckoning me to the place Her hair is flowing and her eyes brown and wide She asks me to be there but there is a divide In life, none will never know its a mixture of pleasure and pain mostly pain, with hopes that it could change She is there, my guide, my dream but she is entwined with another fate Paradise is not for me The dark of the cold abyss overtakes my very soul no time for the living, I have her not to hold If I could go back in time reverse reality before I was even known maybe I would have had the chance to seek my unearthly desire This place intoxicates me She is there, laughing, smiling I cannot hold her I cannot directly show the love I have If only I could tell her I would give up this existence and many more I think everyone looks for this place to soothe their souls that ache yearning and wishing for something that can never be In a perverted sense, it is the very drive that is me. I do it for her. I am still doing it for the dream. It's not fair nor right to mention my plight I mustn't interfere I must not tempt fate Even though I love her now, and always will I still have to glipse a shred of paradise I can always wait, and I can always hope I will be shown the way If fate never wills it I will find her in the next life and try to get it right. I have all of eternity. Is this hell I have found or is this a test of will to see the paradise but never rest myself within Never to hold Never to love.. It's saddening to see another trample my love, my paradise I will await the day it all changes Until then, I will be the pillar that anchors paradise, for it is not lost I have only lost my way to a place that does not know to be found Not my love, nor my hope, nor my eternal desire my eternal love, nothing like this I have felt I fear it is truly for the last time I fear that thought of lost hope I fear the thought of another polluting what I cherish Even now, I sit and hope That fate has mercy, not for me I can take the dark struggles But for Her. If I could throw myself in front of evil Without hestitation, I would save her from pain I am not beyond fate I must let fate take shape I must let it all happen And be there to embrace, a part of me saddened A part of me overjoyed For I hold the other half of paradise
