DEPARTED

I’ve long since departed

From the place where I was born,

Drifted to a new land

Where the secrets of life unfold.

Some may call it heaven

And some may call it hell

Some may call it madness

But this is where I dwell.

Pity me, or call me fool,

I don’t really mind.

For when I step into this land

I leave the world behind.

It started with a battle
Against an unknown foe
But I was fighting with the mirror
The part of me I didn't know.
And now stand together
As two parts of a whole
I've finally reunited
The pieces of my soul.

MOVING FORWARD

Though my heart has been the victor
My head still wears the crown,
It's time to change the outcome
Time to turn this all around.
A war against my twisted heart
Which only craves the glory
Of ignoring all the simple facts
To create a better story.
So now the newest chapter,
The next psalm of my fate,
Where I walk away from beautiful lies
To where real happiness awaits.
