Looks Up... Tears (Sonata)

A Song

♫♪♫♪♪

He looked upon the sky

wondering why

Beauty so far away

Gazed up at the stars

asks how he lived

another day

hours on hours

the time goes by

the same song on repeat

always stuck in a loop

existing his own way

He gets up with the

with the sun

time to rise

sleep stuck in his eyes

heads to work

doesn't remember

the morning drive

He goes through the motions

a zombie inside

his daily prayer

is that someone

will show mercy

end his life

He walks the same routine

it's just day in

day out

He thinks about

his love

with a failing heart

He casts aside his soul

because he can't

see what it's about

waiting patiently

his mind rots

inside to the out

can't bring

a smile passed

the tears that tear him apart

Society just glares at him

all they see is

nothing, a waste of time

another face

on the way to yet another

dollars pay

They don't see the scars

the person he was

just the shell he's become

they don't even care

as they trample him

no they don't even care

what they've done

the monster they’ve

made him become

He looks upon the sky

and he wonnders

how it would feel to fly

to have comet

come crashing down

to watch it end

Why am I alive

let the emptiness die

flash of light!

clash of thunder!

fade to black...

It'll be alright...

He stares up

at the stars...

Tears clouding his eyes...

he asks... (piano fade)

Why ...

Is she so sadden

He just drops

his heavy hand

knows

he's to blame

as she screams his name

and says good bye

his heart just dies (3 simple notes)

He lays there on the ground

on the air

not a sound

longs for the moon

silently he cries

My Work

I tend to write a lot of things like this, what could be considered poems, occasional songs. I have a few novels that are partially written, as well as a completed poem epic and thousands of thoughts and little words of wisdom and philosophy. Sadly for each one there are millions in my head that will never see the light of day and hundreds said aloud that are lost forever. All I ask is that you don't freely use my work without asking. It is frustrating when I see others using my work and claiming it as their own.Thank you. Kaloriinn, James. Mason
