1998

A Poem by Ross Emerson Realino

Time is never the same at all
A path of no return
Leaving the memoirs of youth
Where our lives our forever changed
We will never be the same
We're now different at all
The more you grow, the less you laugh
The more you change, the less you feel

And we know we're never sure
What it's like behind the wall
I feel the urgency of change
Will there be another chance?
Undescribable moments in life
The impossible might be possible
But sometimes it never will
Everybody wants to stay young
We'll crucify the insincere today

Sometimes I breakdown without knowing
Like a feeling of emptiness in a crowd
Sitting on a cloud, life is a short ride
Sooner or later, we'll all be gone
Days when we're young, wild and free
I don't want to perish like the sunset

Many things might happen in a snap
With fingers pointing at the dawn
We feel the pull of hands of tomorrow
Faster than the speed of sound
Then my inner ghouls whisper
"This is an emergency call
Where do we go from here?"
I'm scared of what will be
Of where I'll be and who I'll be
I'm drowning into the unknown
I'm flying under the sea of time
Our voices were kept in a bottle
Can anybody hear us call?

A trash of friends from nearby
They'll cast a shadow on your way
Tell me which card to flip over
Now you know who's real and fake

Nothing is real
While living in reality
We are the puppets of our dreams
And the killers of our hopes

Oh yesteryears, why don't you stay
Maybe we can spend another day
But now your love just disappeared
Over the velvet sunset of youth

About
I used to try writing songs before but I can't make one, so I tried to find something where I can put my early works of lyrics. Until they were turned into poems. I started poetry when I was 16 years .. more..
