Name That Sliders Scene Poems
Darkness Falls
Too many unspoken words
Too many buried feelings
Too many wasted moments
Too many secrets
Not enough support
Not enough action
Not enough soul searching
Not enough time
Now it is ending
Not quickly
Not silently
Not peacefully
Not in the future
Not later
Now
Nothing will fill the space
That was once yours
A piece of me, you will take
A piece of you, I will take
Together forever and more
If I could turn the clock back
Would I? No. Why?
Then I lose the lesson
Then nothing will change
I will learn nothing
What a waste
Darkness falls
Nothing I can do
Just a silent observer
In the grand scheme
Of the uncaring universe
Answer
Shattering The Dream
Artificial
Wide-eyed childish innocence
Reminds me of another place and time
Scene was picked by EustiSlider
Illusionary
Saccharine-laced happiness
Unearned bliss
Time to shatter the dream
Easy to take advantage
Learning the ropes will take time
Time we don't have
A murder
A watch
Now a lost friend
Too many memories
But now is not the time

Eddies In My Heart
Tremendous responsibilities weigh me down
Illumination hits me
Sharing the yoke with another
Lightens the burden for both
Time is running out
The question is asked
The path is not not taken
That destiny is for another
Memories of you etched into my mind
Amidst a kaleidoscope of light and wind
Leaving eddies in my heart

Answer
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Attaining the Goal
Only instinct courses through your mind
Rational thought has been pushed aside
Nothing matters but attaining the goal
Nothing will stand in your way
Neither man, machine or law
Resist and die
Give in and live
Others try to stop you
But they can not
You fly through the air
Not to your death, but to escape
To prey on others
To achieve your goal

Windows to the Soul
Night and day are indistinguishable
As are light and dark
Time stands still
As seconds flow into hours, days, years
Only existing in the river of time
Pulled by time's strong current
Never again living
Death your only escape
Spirit broken
Mind opened like book
Heart filled with nothingness
Soul scarred for life
Time to reflect on the past
Time to contemplate the present
Time to pray for death
Your only future
Shuttered tightly are the windows to my soul
Hopelessness, despair and loneliness
Now bathe my soul
I can't escape neither can you

Answer
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Reflecting on the Past
Different worlds
Different societies
Different moralities
Different prices on life and death
Both are high prices for me
Reflections from the past
I've done two things I've never done before
Now they live in my memory
How do I live with myself?
Whose reflection is that?
A true reflection of me
Someone I wish to be
An illusion
No matter who it is, it's still me
Time heals all wounds
But not this one
This one will always be there
Festering in my soul
Demanding penance
Demanding retribution
Healed only at my death

Answer
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A Balancing Act
Hesitation in my voice
Wondering if there is another
Hoping there is no other
A balancing act
You are the star in the
Grand illumination of the night
Taking a chance
There's very little time left
My mind swirls with emotions
Many complications in our path
How do I answer?
Do I lie?
Do I tell the truth?
I give the answer
Trust in what I say
All the truth laid out for you
Astonishment and anger are my responses
Denial and betrayal are the next
The consequences are dire
I try to explain them
Afraid for my life and yours
Danger is in the air
I decide to walk away
I need time to think
I turn my back on you
My Destiny
Sentry duty is my destiny
Watching and scrutinizing
Admitting or denying
That’s my life
Rarely am I wrong
But one has gotten through
Without the proper papers
Chaos ensued
But it’s not my fault
I was tricked
Deceived by a master
Victory
Follow me my fellow friends
To victory against the invaders
The trespassers will be thrown out
They killed us
They enslaved us
They imprisoned us
Now they have her
We will free her
To arms my friends
To the death
Sweet Surrender
He tickles me
I laugh
He's bored
I'm happy
Time is short
We will never see another day
Dulcet rhythmic sounds
Echoing off the walls
Culminating into
Sweet Surrender
First Impressions It was my mission I don't know why I couldn't look
My adrenaline was pumping
Chaos was in the air
My prey was far ahead
I was too late
Death had already struck
Into your eyes that day
I don't know why I didn't do
What I was trained to do
I don't know why I was
Taken by surprise
All I know is that I was taken in by you
An Honest Opinion Under the moonlight
Candle lights glowing
A private performance
A memorable one
One that I will never forget
An honest opinion?
Not on my life
Test of Wills Recording history is my duty I was there that day The story ended
Day in and day out
Watching, observing, making notes
Never interfering in the events
Unfolding before me
For the final test of wills
Death had been watching
To revel in the moment
Not with a bang or a whimper
But by the coldness of the heart
Test of Convictions Testing their convictions
Promising a future
Basking them in glory
Reveals the truth
I lied
Actions Looking from the outside
A stranger to this world
Danger appears
A heroic deed
Passed off due to imbalance
Waiting in the shadows
Watching for a way home
Promises Our relationship, tenuous at best
Promises kept of
Adventure, happiness and hope
Of promises broken
Bringing heartbreak, hopelessness and sorrow
Our destinies now separate
Our relationship brought to closure
Parallels Horror in one’s eyes
Curiosity in another
Responsibility burdens one’s mind
Thirst of knowledge dances in another
Parallel paths now cross
Guilt will soon make their souls its home
Friendship Under the disguise of friendship Another friend catches the lie
Deception lurks
Under the disguise of friendship
One is caught off guard
Under the disguise of friendship
A smile is only on the surface
Under the disguise of friendship
Ulterior motives are camouflaged
Under the disguise of friendship
Truth lies beneath the illusion
Exposing the truth to the others
The secret revealed in the light of truth
A friendship now compromised
