Scream of the Empath

World.

I was the world, I am the world.
I see it all.
I see you.
I see...

Souls.

Darkness descending from the sky
Despair, decay, all rotted lives
Ghosts flittering, claws tearing
through the fleshless skin
All the world
Invisible agony, twisted spirit
I know how we have fallen

SCREAM

Army of pain, always...
unspoken.

Glowing souls that float within
Innocence unwanted always lost
Unwitting suicide
Blazing light reach out to Heaven
Rotted lives confined to Hate
All inside, all waiting
All forgotten, unknown immortals
Unwilling to listen

Unacceptable.
BURN THE MESSENGER

Fear of the unknown
of the known
of the imagined
Praise for strength, also unreal
Triumph is agony
Scars not from battle
Scorn, it cannot be real
Prophets no longer exist
Playing pretend in light of the world
Pity overwhelming
For others, for all
For truth, for untruth, and all between
Rainbows of black and white
Crushed by emotion

PUSH BACK

It's a matter of equilibrium
You know where I'm coming from
Darkness, Light and Greyscale shadows
Holy Words and Forbidden Power
Speed and exhilaration
Peace and silence
Chaos surrounds, the war goes on
Across the Worlds, inside each soul

ALL

Spin, crash, bang and flash
Trickle brook to monster mash
Dungeon to palace, mountain to rubble
Skulls of the young ground beneath our feet
Love or lust or limerence
Life or death or purgatory
YHVH, Pandemonium
Top to bottom
Van Morrison, Rhapsody of Fire
Bugs the bunny, Frank the rabbit
Big Bang, Big Crunch
Titan, Sol and Gabriel
Clash, crush, smash destroy
From worlds to hearts

just
STOP

Life is love.
Life is also pain.
Life is also love.
Life is also pain.
Life is also love.
Life is also pain.
Life is also love.
Life is also pain.
Life is also love.
Life is also pain.
Life is also love.
Life is also pain.
Life...

All things.

Just stop. Stop. Stop it all.
No more.
No whirlwind of emotions.
No pleasure, no pain.
Just let it stop.

Life is also love.
Life is also overcoming pain.
Life is also love.
Life is also the brighter things.
Life is also dealing with pain.
Life is also love.
Life is also fear.
Life is also love.
Life is also...
When I'm with you.
That is life.

Please tell me it's not all bad. Please tell me you've not gone under.
Please tell me I can help.
Please.
Please tell me there is no reason to be frightened.
Please.
Please tell me life is worth living.
Please.

Reading this. You hurting.
Unbearable pain.
You have no idea.
It hurts so much.

I want to hold you close.
I love you.
I want your agony to disappear.
I want you.
Just you.
I know what I want for the first time.
You want me to be happy.
Can I not want the same for you?
I don't want you to feel other people's pain.
When you have enough of your own.

I love you.
Please.
Life is not just black and white.
