hell is empty; all the devils are down here.


Your existance was based upon love,

so was the book that sat upon your shelf.

I reckon you're fully your own,

nothing is truly based upon itself.

You found yourself based upon a hobby,

you weren't just born as you are.

Your beauty was surreal to me,

I dare to believe it was based off of something bizarre.

My love for you was irreplicable,

and it grows; as do the plants around.

My love was based off of nature's love,

so chaotic, yet without a sound.

A poem you may read often,

was, more certainly so, once a thought.

Literature was added and thus the result,

its root words were what you forgot.

Your existance was based upon love,

love from one person to another; nobody else.

I reckon you're fully your own,

nothing is truly bases upon itself.

At 3:21 a.m., my thoughts appear and I begin to write involuntarily. This is one of my midnight works.

Thank you! I appreciate your comment. I agree, writing lyrics is hard, but it is well worth the struggle. Thanks again.

Nice! Very deep and powerful. I especially loved your opening lyrics, "Your existence was based upon love, so was the book that sat upon your shelf." I understand that writing lyrics is very challenging (or I find it is for me anyway and I'm a pianist) but you have done a very commendable job. Keep writing ;)
