No, I would not want to live in a world without dragons, as I would not want to live in a world without magic, for that is a world without mystery, and that is a world without faith.

– R.A. Salvatore – Streams of Silver

Ph : Ron Baxter Smith

Life doesn’t run a clear course …

It flows through from within

It’s supposed to take you places and leave markings on your skin…

And those marks are just a sign of something true …

And when the sounds of laughter still echo in your dreams

The smoke screen disappears and nothing is what it seems

And your tears have been worthwhile

They got you through to a different place and time where all is new

To the start of something fine …

And your moments of clarity scream the hell within

When you fade like a rose in the gloom love waits outside your room …

– Poets of the fall – Love will come to you

Ph : Daniel Murtagh

I’ve talked to the ladies down the walk

I’ve drunk in tattoos

that have brought the world to my eyes

Understanding opens doors

to the intricate weave of how good tomorrow could be

Been doused in elixir to numb my pains

and black and white thoughts have all bowed to me

as I’ve walked through their unlit corridors

and weak as I am you’re like an angel standing by me

When sorrow calls my name

I know nothing stays the same

I’ve talked to the men of high regard

in rooms ever white and my soul grew dark by their words

Softly sweet as kissing lips

A kaleidoscope of no consolation at all

I’ve bargained my bit with fate and all

with no preconceptions of immortality

I rolled the dice uncompromised

and lost as I am you’re my good samaritan

When sorrow calls my name

I know nothing stays the same
