Gaia

The smoke that separates us
Shrouds me in clouds now.
The lights that illuminate you
Have become my darkness now.

The sparkles that gleamed of you
Now flow in rivers of blood.
The love I held for you
Created tears, became a flood.

The ease of such simplicities
Has loaded me, became by burden.
The happiness you filled me with
Only reminds me of such sin.

My soul fleas out of me here,
Just as the smoke leaves a fire.
And my spirit is weakened
By the spears of this liar.

Truly lost in a never ending maze,
Filled with death traps all around.
I cry and cry for help,
But not a one can hear my sounds.

Left paralyzed in this pit of snakes,
I wish with all my might to flee.
But to my torturer, I must feel this.
So more and more pain, I won't be free.

Through the Valley of Death
I'm lead, chained as a slave.
And a slave to them I be,
For this plot have no point of save.

So under this demon's rule
I shall remain a while yet.
Memories full my mind of the past,
But all I can see is regret.

Confusion, forever, sets in,
With the Sphinx as my riddler.
Pain fills this new future,
And my past is filled of her.

Am I precious to you now?
As if I was worth it then.
As a half starved slave, begging,
Am I worth more than them?

I stand now, ready to jump.
To jump off this here pyramid.
Hoping to end your sorrows
By killing that which they forbid.

Over the thousands of years
My people have worked days long.
What makes me so special
To not be singing their same song?

The rage that builds up inside
Is enough to kill a man outside.
Through these evil magic words
My secret I am able to hide.

The scars that cover my body
Tell of a story so sad to hear.
Though I long to cut them all off,
No longer my history can I fear.

The evolution is almost done
And my change will soon complete
The monster the military needs
To fill the world of their deceit.

The worlds of the present and
The past collide with my Terra.
These circles of that world
No longer work here, I give up!

I cannot return to the home in
Where I grew up and came to know.
All my hard works of there,
And this is all I have to show.

A world full of mysteries about,
And a whole new kind of law.
Even if I was to ever return,
No one would believe what I saw.

And to the scholars of this world,
They believe I am of a mad man.
They scoff and say it's never
Possible to create out of one's hand.

The things I considered familiar
Are but monsters in their eyes.
And the stories I tell of there
They conceive to all be lies.

The demons in this world
Are nothing compares to the next.
These supposed accursed peoples
Are nothing but ones hexed.

On my own I am in this place,
A stranger in a foreign land.
Chained to the camel's back
As I walk across the blistering sand.

A part of me was taken within
As I crossed the worlds' barriers.
The key component to my being,
The piece that made me a savior.

Attached still to the tree is the piece,
An arrow holds in place my heart.
The back is drenched in my blood,
I was so foolish to trust or even start.

The white pedals still grow out
From the whole where my heart was.
And the arrowed stem is there,
In the other world, where my home was.

The fire still fills my eyes
As they burn tears of ashes.
My mind even has left me,
Through the forests it thrashes.

To the seven wonders wide
Have I been divided about.
I'm forever haunted within;
I wanna scream, I wanna shout.

This smoke shrouds me now,
It's become like a coffin.
As I release the last of me,
This is what I prepare to die in.
