    - Gray The Blue Sea -

    Tied with loose rope
    bumping into the docks
    silent sorrow in empty boats
    Once when I was nine years old
    I woke up out in the middle of the ocean
    With my head just at the water surface
    And one foot touching a lonely pole
    Underneath. Enough to keep breathing
    Bursting bubbles floating by and
    wondering aloud "Will one of them awaken
    myself from this endless conscious stream
    Or are they entrances to different dreams?"
    After desperatley grasping and to no avail
    I must have gone under and lost my wits
    Currents pushed me out well gone
    I woke up again sitting on the beach at dawn
    With bare feet playing in wet grey sand
    Wishing for some sign of life
    And I saw them bobbing under purple sky
    Bumping the dock, barely afloat
    Silent sorrow, in empty boats.

    Activation ordered from above
    While the jubilation carriers on
    below the canopy of oak trees
    A joyous band of Merrymen
    dancing around burning human-copy
    prototpyes, half scorched man
    machine hybrids, data overflow
    released from fading blue eyes
    as breathing flame pulls the plug.
    And you know, I watched with disgust
    from a slight distance in the shade
    with my hood pulled right up
    crouching behind sun rays breaking
    through the skyline
    At that moment I took from out
    my pocket a single unit prayer
    capsule and held it out, humming
    to life in the palm of my hand.
    Just then the rain set in,
    clouds dripped down the mountain
    side and fear gripped the hearts
    of those forsaken mercenaries
    the moment I made my appearance.
    Before a blink of an eye their
    bodies ripped apart into myriad
    bits, an organic mess to say the least,
    blew out in every direction surrounding
    me. Sometimes I wish I was never
    trained this way but to whose side
    should one really belong?
    Off in the distance I hear a
    nightbird calling while the ferns
    and trees shook with
    the wrath of God
    Earth crumbled underfoot and
    the sky ripped in half

    I love the title of Gray The Blue Sea and I know you have already told me it's a dream, but it has a very dreamlike personality. When I read it, it's almost like being lost in a painting that came to life, that's how it feels to me and I cant stop saying it I love "silent sorry, on empty boats"...

    I love humming to life, it's just one of those feelings, that have not been named, this is the perfect description of it.
