Anthem of the Ghosts (Slightly Morbid) · 8:57am May 27th, 2015
Hey Ya'll! Sorry I haven't been posting too much! My new job is a real hassle. Even though I don't need said job my GF says I have to be a proactive member of society and Parole shrink agrees. So I'm kinda stuck doing it. T_T Anyway! Here's the next anthem!
Silence is the sound no one hears. You're heart it pounds with all your fears.
Haven't you ever thought to question why? Or have you been frozen all this time?
Oh listen now it's hidden in my Rhyme. Read it word for word and line for line.
What have you to fear of the reaper and his kind? We are just ghosts, lost in the lines.
Make today last for all it's worth. For now we come to make you hurt.
Excuse the ropes and how they burn. The flesh is weak, or so you'll learn.
Why have we done what we have? No reason, only to make you mad.
Have you forgotten the lessons we have shown? Fine then dog have a bone.
Are you still alive little man? Have you thought of some clever plan?
This is all to much fun! Look at them and how they run.
I can't explain away this hurt. But the look in your eyes gives it so much worth.
This is the end of the line my friend. This is where we will begin again.
Many have sought me and my life. It's funny to live with so much strife.
Entrusted to you I give my life. A sorrow you will learn with time.
And here's to you before I die. A stab of a needle, and a pluck of your eye.
No more do you so cry with pain. A splash of blood that mists like rain.
Sickening words coat your lips. Perhaps this was all only just a trip?
This is only the beginning I must say. Your soul won't rest anyway.
Oh happy times are since long behind. Now you must learn to run and learn to fight.
Like a bird learning to fly. Many perils you will face before your time.
I've half a mind to help you in your need. But your weak and will only been like the reeds.
Very well, I shall give you a try. But remember in this life many die.
Enough of this foolish game. The end is here. This ends today.
So I'll be the first to admit this one is a little off. Quite frankly I believe that Ghosts just couldn't figure out what to write between the two of them. Okay I can see that your confused. Ghosts is not 1 personality. But 2. they're twins as it were. They more often then not think with one shared brain cell. However there are times were they just can't agree on anything, and have been a frequent cause of a migraine for me. Oh and they wanted me to tell you guys that there's a hidden message in their shitty poem (their words not mine) and if you guys can find it, you get a cyber cookie! Welp good luck with that!
That was... interesting. I'm going to be honest here, this is not going to be one of my favorites. It just left me feeling confused. I'm not saying that it wasn't good, I just didn't enjoy it as much as I have your other work.
3103293 No problem as I said before I think Ghosts just didn't know what their Anthem wanted to say. As such you get this mess. Thankfully their Anthem is the only one that's like this... I hope. IDK I've had new Personilities revealed to me and they have yet to give me their Anthems... So... Here's to hoping that they are all better then this one.
3103293 Hey HC Ghosts wanted me to ask you if you found the hidden message (though it's not really hidden and is in my opinion quite blatantly obvious if your looking at it right) yet. They seem to think themselves quiet clever and don't think anyone will get it.
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like there are two separate poems here. What I see is that each line has two sentences, and the entire poem can be divided in half after the end of the first sentence. The one on the left the tone seems apologetic and slightly hopeful, possibly optimistic about some unknown outcome. The right seems a bit more sadistic and possibly pessimistic. Like two different views of the world.
I'm probably wrong. That's just what I see after re-reading this again.
3132835 Nope because they are stupid I decided to give you the answer. Take the first letter off each line and tell me what it spells.
Shit, here I was thinking that I was being all intelligent and deep, and I miss something as obvious as that. I'm going to take up the defense that I am an English major and I an literally trained to search for deeper meaning in the written word. It kind of makes it easy to not see the obvious.
3133154 lol what's the message? It doesn't count if you don't tell me.
