Masterpiece Of A Mind
written by Morbid Angel10:19 PM 12/21/04So here we are with two seperate minds,
Yet same thoughts travel at the same time.
Nothing else matters when you have a hand to hold,
Darkness turns to light when you're not left alone.
Two people torn apart the moment they saw day,
Not stopping for a second to watch their worlds turn to grey.
Colours fade, dreams will die,
While we stay here both alive,
The world outside erodes and weathers,
But here we sit alone, together
Lost in a place where no-one else goes,
Detached from reality, all time slows
Praying the moment will eternally last
Rather than becoming a shade of the past,
All that you love will be carried away...
But we can always tell ourselves, 'Not today.'
In the depths of our minds we both knew it was breaking up,
The shattering of fate bought us back to Earth with a bump.
Snapping back to reality does not mean the end,
It just needs more work to fly away again.
So with the power of two hearts joined together with love,
All it takes to reunite is one little push.
If we hide ourselves away from the world, anything may come to pass
Who said second chances never work and never last?
They say 'There's a light at the end of the tunnel, shining bright...you'll see!'
But all I want (and i think you'll agree) is drag you down into the darkness with me
And dance in the shadows, away from prying eyes
That bring us back to earth and accuse us of using lies
To build our heaven on, when all they are are goals
That have not been reached yet, but are yearned for by both our souls.
And we won't stop dancing until the clock strikes twelve,
It's like a fairytale story in our own perfect world.
Something I once doubted is the ingredient of my dreams,
Something I once hated is what I've come to need.
For once the shadows don't seem so scary and the dark feels like light,
We awoke into a resurrection that bought us back to life.
Hearts can change like clouds do but they only float on by,
Come back around the world again and rest yourself by my side.
And as we twirl and pirouette through the clearing cloud of doubt,
My heart soars into twilight skies and gives a joyous shout
When a haunting melody drifts across the ground and blasts into the air
And merges with our spirits. Where did it come from? Where?
That is the song of happiness you hear upon the breeze,
A tune that seldom plays these days, it does not come with ease,
Such a smooth and elegant piece should not be hard to play,
Yet we are the musicians, and the music starts today.
It looks like we found something perfect and worth dancing for,
Something so rare as our heartbeats shake the floor.
In time with each other making the beat to our song,
It's always been playing, switched to mute for so long.
We cut ourselves free from the ones who pulled us down,
A smile spreads across my face as you twirl me around.
And when the instrumentalists grow weary of that which they create,
They close their eyes and dream the dreams to which only lovers can relate,
But even with our bodies sleeping, laying together hand in hand,
Our minds join together somewhere beyond, and for a moment we do stand,
Spirits meeting, eye to eye, before we make a subtle bow
And slowly start to dance again, as we will spend every night after now,
We drift asleep, we drift awake,
We drift through life, we never take
For granted what others almost certainly will....
It is love that keeps us waltzing still.
Imaginary applause for the show that we put on,
Staring into each others eyes we danced all night long.
We danced our lives away to the music of our souls,
Everything once locked away is now everything we own.
We need not be two people for we know everything there is,
The secrets shared, the memories from within.
It's like I've taken something thats sent me to another world,
I'm high on love but not dizzy as I twirl.
Escaping all my senses life drifts in and out of view,
With one blink it dissapears leaving only you.
It's nothing morbid or broken because in death we won't stop singing,
We won't stop dancing, for we are everything.
I've danced my life away and I'll do the same with death,
It's no different here, nothing more nor nothing less. |

Author's footnotes and comments on this Poem:
Me and Ed worked together on this one, tossing verses. I started, then he followed, I done the one after...etc. It might be hard to understand so heres the meaning of the first verse: theres two people who are joined with love due to fate, and everything is good, and then when the darkness goes to light (everything gets good) it all goes wrong, because they didn't stop to look after what they built until it completely went. that should hint it for the rest of the poem. You can tell he is the better poet of us both. I meant Ed not me...it's not finished.
