embrace the cold, first topic here. Options

[*suddenly she*]

sorry for the all caps, sorry for the one profane word (because duck and flying truck wouldn't fit), and sorry for the .. i guess, unorganized and random stuff flying around. i decided to write it because a friend of mind just wrote a poem and we were just being kinda silly.

but then i started actually. writing about stuff that was happening. so it's not completely silly.
have fun?

EMBRACE THE COLD.

WE DIG OUR WAY IN
IN ORDER TO GET OUT
IT ONLY GETS WORSE
WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THIS WAS ABOUT.
THERE IS NO EXIT
WE FORGOT THE ROPE
THERE IS NO LADDER.
AND THERE IS LESS HOPE.

OUR DREAM SUNG A REQUIEM
WE COULDN'T PRECLUDE.
WE WERE BORN MARTYRS.
WE WERE BORN TO LOSE.
OUR LIVES WERE CLOSING
MINUTES AFTER IT BECAME.
IT PASSED BY TOO QUICKLY.
WE NEVER KNEW OUR OWN NAMES.

THE VOICES SCREAMING
DIG. DIG FASTER.
FASTER THE EARTH SWALLOWS.
WE'RE SCRAMING AS IF THERE WILL BE NO AFTER.
WE'RE DROWNING IN OURSELVES.
WE'RE STILL FULL OF CONCEIT.
WE CAN'T END THIS AGONY
AND WE WON'T ADMIT DEFEAT.

I DREAMT A MORNING
FLASHING BLUE AND GOLD
THE SUN ROSE SLOWLY
BLISS UNCONTROLLED.
I DREAMT A NIGHT.
GLOWING PURPLE AND GRAY.
OUR BODIES WENT COLD.
THE SUN WENT AWAY.

BREATH LEFT US
AND SO DID OUR LOVE.
WE'RE NO MORE THAN IDIOTS.
SENT FROM ABOVE.
WE WERE SUCH FOOLS
TO BELIEVE IN LUCK.
DON'T PLAY WITH MY MIND.
I DON'T GIVE A F*CK.

I DREAMT A LIFE.
GROWING RED AND BLACK.
THIS IS THE FUTURE.
WE CAN'T GO BACK.
TRY AS YOU MIGHT,
TRY AS YOU WILL.
THIS WILL NEVER WORK.
AND WILL NEVER WORK STILL.

HATE IS A CHOICE.
A HOBSON'S, YOU MIGHT SAY.
WE CAN'T CONTROL OTHERS.
TRY AS WE MAY.
EMBRACE THE COLD.
IT'S ALL YOU'LL GET.
HARD AS YOU TRY.
YOU WON'T FORGET.
