When the storm clouds boil around me, And the lightning splits the sky--. When the howling wind assails me, And life's sea is rolling high-- When my heart is filled with terror, And my fears, I can't allay-- Then I find sweet peace and comfort, When I simply stop and pray. When the things of life confound me, And my faith is ebbing low-- When my trusted friends betray me, And my heart is aching so-- When the night seems black and endless, And I long for light of day-- Then I find a silver dawning, When I simply stop and pray. There are things beyond the heavens I can't begin to understand, But I know that God is living, And I know He holds my hand. Yes, I know He watches o'er me All the night and all the day-- And He's always there to hear me When I simply stop and pray.
Is imagination just a childish game And is outside the box really lame If there's no skin can love still exist Is trusting the unseen a foolish risk They say such fantasy can not real Those aren't feelings that you feel Your heart really didn't skip a beat Words alone can't create this heat Well I'm not buying it I don't have to see To trust the invisible What it can be You can't define A lover's heart What I'm feeling And where it starts Your words are magic They captivate me Hocus pocus Your soul I see They say dreams are lies, let them go If she's not present how can you know Sacred mysteries surely can't be true No physical presence.. no me and you Well I'm not buying it I don't have to see To trust the invisible What it can be You can't define A lover's heart What I'm feeling And where it starts Your words are magic They captivate me Hocus pocus Your soul I see I'm in love, I've never seen your face But what I've felt can't be erased.. I'm buying you I don't have to see To trust the invisible What it can be Girl, I feel it A lover's heart From the inside out Is where it starts Your words are magic They captivate me Hocus pocus Your soul I see *They say falling in love is wrong but it sure feels right Contest: Brian's "Words-The Heart Of Imagination" Poet: LyricMan
If the spirit moves me I will speak I will share words that no-one wants to hear I will speak them I will speak them loud and clear If the spirit moves me If the spirit moves me I will see I will see Beauty that no-one else can see I will see it far and near around me and in all things If the spirit moves me If the spirit moves me I will hear I will hear things no-one else can hear I will hear the universe speaking to me and I will hear If the spirit moves me If the spirit moves me I will feel I will feel the pain of others I will feel their happiness too I will be able to empathize If the spirit moves me If the spirit moves me I will taste joy and laughter I will live my life in peace I will find love I will live on in the ever-after If the spirit moves me © Christine A Kysely All Rights Reserved (October 25, 2011 Wausau, Wisconsin USA)
Tear drops trickle down your cheeks I know how hard you've tried Put your heart and soul on paper Only to be denied You've thought.. If only someone really knew If somehow they could understand These works I write are my last dream My hopes of a promised land You long to be a special girl Not just a number in the crowd With skill you paint a masterpiece The canvas makes you proud Your words are filled with royalty They're lofty and incredibly deep And for the casual passerby The climb is perhaps too steep You've thought.. If only someone really knew If somehow they could understand These works I write are my last dream My hopes of a promised land But what if one already knew Only one, but they understood And this one believed in your dream They longed for all you could Would just that one be enough To renew hope of a promise land I tell you girl here and now There is one.. And I'm that man! Date: 8-15-14
What will you do when it's your time to shine? Do you have all your words written down in your mind? Have you planned for the day when they call on your name? To lift up a soul and help hide someone's shame? Is it easy for you to just stand up and speak? Anytime, anywhere – any day of the week? What about when you're asked to give your point of view On the many events that take place in the news? If you're asked to speak on the 'good news' of Christ To those who yet walk in the world, full of vice. Do you have rhyming words or a sweet song to sing? As you share the news of our Resurrected King? These questions I ask are to keep us in mind Of the Great Commission given to all mankind! That our King returns with Victory in His hand, And all will bow down with their knees in the sand Giving glory to God – Who truly loved us all Even though disobedience caused us to fall. Yet He gave all He had even Everlasting Life. He forgave us our sins – He took away our strife. His command said "go forth in the world, filled with love And be as wise as serpents – but gentle as doves". So what will you do when it's your time to shine? When God opens up Heaven and says "This child is Mine?"
Raindrops are like my thoughts falling down into my mind sending goose bumps down my spine Their cool aftermath cleanses me of my thoughts of fear and uncertainty about what tomorrows pain may bring They make me feel, wet with creativity drenched in my optimistic illumination. glistening raindrops, my thoughts leave paths of pleasurable distress, and hope of success which road, less traveled may be the best Forget an umbrella when these raindrops arrive, I walk outside arms open wide Ready to Receive whatever the mind storm may bring because raindrops are as my thoughts, falling down into my mind sending shivers down my spine My brain, yearns for the rain, to wash away the pain, tomorrows worry does bring One special drop could speed up life's clock to the time I can handle my own and not dwell inside my controllers home For raindrops are, like my thoughts falling down into my mind sending goose bumps down my spine
We go through each and every day With family, friends and foes but, For loves' sweet sake We all endure The chaos, tears and woes And so you think For loves' sweet sake To wrestle with the dark? Well - you will find that you've become The bait - and food for sharks The things you'll do For loves' sweet sake Can tear your heart apart And cause distress where none should be Who now will mend your heart? Now this you say to your lost love "How could you hurt me so"? For loves' sweet sake I gave up all But would not let you go For loves' sweet sake You'll change your life And try to start anew With hope, with love with charity You'll face what comes to you So now, my friend, consider this And all you've sacrificed For loves' sweet sake You gave your all Hey - was it worth the price? Let's ask the One who gave up all To enter into Strife For loves' sweet sake He endured the Cross He gave up His own life He helped us know how much we're loved He showed us how to be This all was done for us - And more For Loves' sweet sake you see
Growing up My father and me He did the best he could Because once we were three Events happened And then we were two His rise and demise As his life withdrew Looking back, to the memories we had They never lasted for years Some great, some sad For an ill man he did his best And in me, I have his zest He never recovered from the loss of his son To say goodbye to the elder one He was hospitalised for months and years On the day he was taken, uncontrollable tears The years we shared Fifteen in all In every one He helped me grow tall To appreciate, what life will give Remember your past, let your future live He's all around me every day For on the wind I hear him say Enjoy your life, live happily I hope you get to the land of the free My reply to you Dad As you look down on me The Aura around you The man I hope to be " Happy Fathers Day to you Dad, I still miss you, your loving son James " To be read listening to Boston's < A Man i'll never be > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzOKrXj8Hp4 http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/me.php
I'm haunted by the words you wrote Tell me what you want from me Don't tell me what I want to hear Tell me how you really feel I could be everything for you and more I'm telling you now I want more I'm telling you I want to be with you I want all of you... Do you want to be with me? Honestly? I know you're confused I'm confused too, confused by you It's okay to be scared I'm here for you, I'll hold your hand This is a risk I'm willing to take But the decision is yours to make You write of walking a straight line I'm here to tell you that now's the time Now's the time to face your fears Now's the time and I'm right here Now's the time for us to shine Come on baby, let's chase those butterflies November 30th, 2008
Thugs in the street with their pants hung low White T's and Tims with two golds in the front row Philly fades or braids, du-rags, and fitted hats Sweat towls around the neck Baseball caps turned to the back See some people would call them hoodrats because of where they live at Not knowing the situation Seeing the problem Or trying to give back Instead they just judge the book by it's cover Instead of calling the book your brother See if we don't stick together And if we don't love each other And stop calling us women B's and Hoes for we all know that's not the way love goes So black people lets take a stand Reach out and touch your brothers hand Lets make this world an equal place Because we've proved that we can
A lump of clay upon God's wheel, Twas such a simple start. The gentlest of hands I could feel, As He reshaped my heart. If wrong things I may do or say, Discard me he does not. Like an earthly potter and his clay, God uses what He's got. A perfect vessel when he is done, Nothing fancy yet you see. But with God I must be number one, For He still works on me.
O, boisterous clouds, Why do you pout on high? With friction so among you, Will lightening too, Not soon cross the sky? In bumping heads, You cause the thunders burst Then in your sorrow weep And once again your tears, Quench earth's thirst. I stand alone surveying aloft, Your strength and might. But then like curtains, You're parting once again, For God's sunlight. Seeing a rainbow hanging, In a distant portion of your sky. I need not ask the question, Where do you go When not in sight,. or why?
In this world of Uncertainties I'm the man that you can trust And in my words of sincerity That my love would never last. And if you could only feel, what i feel for you You can ask me "why?" so you can see the truth Like our love that tightens the rope, Like a light that would give us hope. As you watch the dark skies Let me grab the moon for you, And as I catch the bright stars That's the way you can see me through As this planet turns as it always will And things go wrong and you don't know what to feel Hold my hand for it will make us strong Like a wind, we will carry on The wind blow that sings a hymn for you For they know what does love means for the two Love is blind, and not deaf So how's success if you're not ready to bet? In this poem with full of rhymes, A full of love, Babe can you be mine? I don't expect too much from you Why should I? If you complete my whole. "Till death do us part" that's what they have said But why do struggles crash them ahead? Don't ask me when my love will last, To count all of our quarrels, is that a must? Now and Forever is all that I promise No day dreaming and without reminiscence As the matter of time, as the time passes by Together we stand, together you and I A poem for my Girlfriend for our anniversary :) pls comment and rate... you are free to judge and criticize my work :) God Bless

VELA (CANDLE)First Spanish version, scroll down for English) Yo ser' para ti. Toda la vida que me queda la vivir' para ti y cuando el tiempo haya terminado, morir' por ti. Dir' tu nombre en cada vela que encienda, respirar' tu nombre. Te susurrar', cada oraci¢n que diga ser siempre parte de ti. Por toda la eternidad, y as¡ ha sido y ser siempre, y cuando deje este mundo, aquello vendr conmigo en la luz de una vela. Todo el mundo sigue girando, haciendo el d¡a y la noche, y de la oscuridad a la luz, ser s siempre parte de cada oraci¢n que yo diga. Yo ser' para ti. Como una fresca quebrada de la monta¤a que se desborda por ti como una c lida brisa de verano entre los rboles para ti. En el brillo de una vela, todo lo que he sido o llegue a ser por toda la eternidad, tu ser s parte de todo lo que yo haga siempre. Yo ser' para ti. Traducci¢n: Emilio J. Saavedra M. CANDLE I will be for you. All my life that is left, I will live for you, and when time has run out, I will die for you. I will speak your name in each candle that I light, I will breath your name. I will whisper you, every prayer I ever say will be part of you. For eternity, and forever it has been, and will always be, and when I leave this world, it will go with me. In a candle light all the world keeps on turning, making day and night, and from dark to light, you'll be part of every prayer that ever comes from me. I will be for you. Like a cool mountain spring that overflows for you like a warm summer breeze through the trees for you. In a candle glow, everything I've ever been or will ever be for eternity, you'll be part of everything I ever do. I will be for you. © Ron Wilson aka Vee Bdosa the doylestown poet
A young girl who believed in rainbows all those colors were just so cool You grew up, life's storms battered you these last few years have been so cruel Hard to remember dreams from long ago a beautiful Princess you wanted to be Floods of tears blinding future's hope a single mom with a child your reality But this morning a rainbow greeted you all those colors were still cool to see Young girl's dream to chase that rainbow this time you did and it led right to me You finally found the end of a rainbow indeed there was a pot of pure gold Not the kind found in rocks or rivers But a man with many secrets untold And he longed to share them with you called you Princess and took your hand My first secret when I was a young boy was to grow up and become your man!

She once walked with him and stopped with him when they heard that familiar refrain. She'd stand beside him while he'd salute her pride for her Soldier was plain, and every night, while he'd hold her tight contented and happy, she'd sigh. They would drift off to sleep listening to the beat of the Soldiers Lullaby. They play the National Anthem to fill us with fire and pride and the last one they play every evening is the Soldiers Lullaby. Twice a day at nine eleven when her Soldier was in Iraq she'd bow her head in silence to remember that September attack, and when she'd get home in the evening tired and lonely, she'd cry. She'd pray that somewhere he was listening to the Soldiers Lullaby. Now she stands at the gate in the airport heart pounding as Soldiers stream by, so excited she can barely contain it overwhelmed she's starting to cry, and the crowd is beginning to thin now the tears and the laughter all die, heart broken and lonely, she stands there when she hears his voice simply say "hi"... It's been years since she's thought of that moment, they've been busy with life passing by. Two girls and two boys now fill their lives with joy and time really does seem to fly, but at night when she's tucked in her family she still bows her head with a sigh and she never forgets to remember The Soldiers Lullaby. ~For Jenn with love
Radiant hymn's of morning sun of Godly words O' how I run to and fro I traipse in search in love I rest still my spirit yearns I will sing of the Lord's great love forever... forever.. forever...

To proclaim everlasting the prize onward and bestowed to rise O' anointed one I march ahead in love I rest each day of toil I will sing of the Lord's great love I will sing forever.. forever... forever... O' how I bear in my heart in completion just to be a part with sinful flesh my spirit cries I call my King to shun desire I will sing of the Lord's great truth I shall sing forever forever... forever... forever... Amen...... _______________________________ Contest-Larry Cohen's Masterpiece 'HALLELUJAH.'
A fool was crowned And now we`re bound To serve and please On hands and knees, To hate and smile Each day and mile, We feel defeat And kiss his feet. The foolish kings Cut off our wings. Their poisoned knife- Our foolish life. And faith`s refuse Won`t save our muse, When banned to fly, She`ll fall and die. Still time will flow- Kings come and go. But teams of mules, That choose the fools To be ahead Alive and dead, Won`t change a bit The fate they meet. They`ll choke on pride, They`ll run and hide And in their shells Pity themselves, That life was cruel To have set the rule- "Do as you`re told, Silence is gold." We pay the price To hide our vice: The coward `s role- To lie and crawl. And hope someday Things`ll come our way, We`ll find the might To rise and fight.

As I place the pen on paper my soul beings to bleed upon the pages my secret longings hopes and dreams of which I hope to be, how I want to reflect me transpire into the universe within my poetic lyricism the warm sweet smoke of my vega blunt swirls about me, flickers in and out of motion as the vanilla candle nearby fights the shadows in my room the cool summer breeze from my window carries dancing sinsemilla fog around me, allowing my mind to adventure elsewhere into the nights abyss of minutes, turned to hours I write pages, of words scribbling my life, struggles and fears Bob Marley and Lauryn Hills "turn your lights down low" beat inspirational peacefulness on my eardrums my small hands delicately pluck my imaginary guitar strings as I join her in a solo, Miss Hill's magical voice cracks with emotion, and my soul tingles with excitement For creativity flows within my veins I breath real music, such as she, as soon as daylight opens thine dark brown eyes to see The poetic flowetry, carries me and speaks to me the notes capture my inner disturbance and desires until the soundtrack of my day takes me into Summers night thoughts of my dreams of being a published poet clearly float into my sight Then, I sit as I place my pen upon the paper black and white turn to one and my soul bleeds onto pages into an early sun
A burst of white light gamma rays, overbearing a flash of brilliance burns through to my soul everything is like hell the world starts to melt in the blink of an eye just the cold blackness of night I don't care if I am not again what I once was, for at this moment I am greater now than ever before I took the path between teetering, tight roping walking right up to my right divined in my unholy state I thought I told you I am your king still you sit there, hesitating I know you hate me what does that mean? I hate just about everything still I'm chosen I did not wish before now bow down to me refuse me no more for I shall always be your demon until you accept me as your King. I don't even know you though you say we used to be best of friends, you and me the day you ditched me I remember now exactly how it played out back when we were just tiny things even back then I still was King you thought me stupid just a ruse I would laugh inside, you see? not one of you single, mean people ever even knew me in a world, mostly seen to me that is why only I can be your true King and bring forth a new source of light everlasting. As two worlds collide slowly aligned one wrapped in shadows one bathed in white evils swirling in the clouds above I'll always be the king you love to hate or despise as in your blood I thought I told you, I am the one I am the way, the way out shall be shown breathe in my spirit as it carries you away breathe in my faith it shall carry your empty space and deposit you gently on a cloud just enough higher than you've ever dreamed of for I am king now, and your in my hell your in my imagination, I'll just never tell you'll feel as though dreaming, you'll feel now if you try and see you were always found the most shared in the light cast upon me the last bright star in heaven. Denounce my name, if you may One year later, still not afraid A black sheep, a darkened spade That's just life, I'm not right I'm in the wrong, follow along Like a piper, I'll pitch a song Mesmerized, the weak wills sing I thought he told you, he's still our king.
Ignite, The missing light, Forget, What's behind. Just believe, That love comes again... 'Cause, The skies, Are like a hard glide, In a shining rainbow's light... All dreams and fantasies, Can be reality, 'Cause fantasy, Is based on reality... But all histories aren't the same... 'Cause, Sometimes, we dive, In our lives... So, Don't judge, For what you see, Judge, For what it is..., 'Cause time passes, But, memories remain... And, Listen, To your heart, 'Cause, The body, does, The mind, thinks, And, the heart, feels..., While, the soul, lives... So, Always remember, To remember the past, To live the present, And to wait and pursue the future... Listen to your heart, Before you are telling goodbye, 'Cause destiny, Might lead to demise..., But, remember that destiny can be changed... Life is unpredictable, But space and time, Could be controlled... And even if some die, We may survive... Remember, That life, Might have an endless beginning... All that remains, Is to be reborn...
There are places that I've been that you may never see As the steady winds are blowing this storm brews inside of me But the strong hand that guides me will surely see me through As I walk within this darkness There is nothing left to do I see the storm clouds gather as the thunder starts to roll Lightening flashes all around as the droplets flood my soul But when the rain has ended the sun will shine once more and I will then be stronger than I ever was before So bring on the rain let me cry these lonely tears and release the pain As the lightening strikes this heart cries out again I won't give in... bring on the rain As everything around me rages onto my knees I fall I cry out in desperation "God help me through it all" Then this fury deep inside me slowly starts to drift away Though a steady rain is falling I know I'll be okay So bring on the rain let me cry these lonely tears and release the pain As the lightening strikes this heart cries out again I won't give in... bring on the rain
O Lord God Almighty How marvelous is Thy name Thou O God sit high and look low Thou art worthy to be praised Thou sayest "I am in you" Thou sittest at the right hand of the Father In my finite mind I understand How elevated, Jesus Savior, Thou hast placed me Sitting on a man made throne High above the clouds I get a glimpse of Heaven And how condescending a God I serve For, to step down from such glory Where dwellest purity and love Holiness and beauty beyond compare Just to save a wretch like me It must be love It must be endless and abiding love It must be love far beyond any other love O Blessed Jesus, with thanks and gratitude With every cell, with every muscle Every sinew, every inch of my flesh Every organ, every bone That you have connected With such infinite wisdom I give you praise I give you glory Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen and amen Thanks for your inspiration sir.

You've woken a memory, a searing desire, Ensnared my senses, set my whole world on fire. You still make me nervous, turn my insides to stone, My bastion breached, my resistance overthrown. A decade reverse we were in a different world, But a kiss from you and my toes would curl, I can not say what happened back then, Except how happy I am that you're back again. After all these years, after everything's changed, I think to way back and I still feel the same, Like we could conquer any mountain, ride any wave, Just lift a finger and I'll be your slave. Something good has begun and you're going on a jaunt, I'll have to put on my brave face, hide that I'm gaunt. While you're away, time can only pass slow, So do me a favour, kiss me hard before you go.
So much I wanted to say. So much I wanted to shout. It was like being trapped behind bars without a way to get out. My mind going wild with all these questions of why. The only way to escape was to fall asleep or to cry. What did I do so bad that made me have to pay? My friends, my dreams, and my life was swepped away. I know I can do it! I try and I try. Nothing seems to get better. I sometimes wish I would Die. Starved for attention. I wanna talk to the world. I just miss being loved. Miss the warmth of a girl. Snickers and stairs is what my life has become. I'm treated like I'm a kid, like I'm sick, or I'm dumb. One day to the next. Life becomes work just to be alive. I thank god for my blessings. I thank god I survived. I finally see some improvement. More hope tickles my brain. It was worth all the time, all the tears, all the pain. I awake with a smile and new hope to move on. I did it! I did it! All those hard times are gone!
I walk a mile to see the self in me that I believe to be, I knew the road I choose to lay my head to sleep is called my home, times in need I could barely see that in myself I will set free, the act that held me down, something about me I could not see, I lived a life when I decide that day I said that I don't care, so young, so bright, I dim my light, traumatized for me to share, love me please regardless of what you heard and what you have seen, friends say that I'm only human, yes you're right, a human but who am I being? My life will move in the direction I choose, this I know I have always been taught that I choose to be a winner or lose, its entirely up to me its all in my thoughts. Ken Fepulea'i
For a time I've been writing as the stream idles by as dust storms are rolling, across a faraway sky while sheep are a'bleating; as the cattle lie low as I'm writing I'm watching, the white falling snow it drops down in silence, from the dark coloured sky I feel distanced, from the home that I'm holding here in my minds eye..! © Joe Maverick 09-01-2010
7 may 2012 4:50 PM I dance in the sunlight I dance in the rain I dance when I'm happy I dance when there's pain Because it frees my soul And it lets me go to a higher place to a higher praise With You ohhhh with You that's right I dance to remember I dance to forget I dance in a dream land I dance in reality Because I dance for You And You take me there to that higher place to that higher praise.....with You Life on Purpose Live it before you lose it! ©2009

I want to be inspired to write a song people really want to sing; I want to be inspired to compose a requiem for the King; But, I'm just an ordinary man doing the best I can at writing poems that have no homes. I want to be inspired to find a cure for this cancer thing; I want to be inspired to reach out for the golden ring; But, I'm just an ordinary man doing the best I can at getting by with the good old college try. I want to be inspired to lead a revolutionary coup; I want to be inspired to be the best at everything I do; But, I'm just an ordinary man doing the best I can to make ends meet and not live on the street. I have the motivation; I'll put in the perspiration; I can give it concentration; But, I lack the inspiration; Inspire me. What will it take to inspire me? I want to be inspired to write a song people really want to sing; I want to be inspired to compose a requiem for the King; But, I'm just an ordinary man doing the best I can at writing poems that have no homes.
I sometimes get a little crazy and lose control I sometimes lose sight of whats in my soul My teddy bear steadily speaks in my ear Everything in sight reminding me that he's still here My teddy bear texts just to say, "Good morning beautiful. I love you." A random call in the middle of the afternoon just to say, "Baby, I'm here to pull you through." My teddy bear leaves a silent message everywhere My teddy bear leaves a desk full of paper and a drink in the fridge Sayin' baby take my hand and we'll build a bridge My teddy bear knows which song to play My teddy bear knows how to make me smile more each day I sometimes get a little crazy and lose control I sometimes lose sight of whats in my soul My teddy bear steadily speaks in my ear Everything in sight reminding me that he's still here My teddy bear texts just to say, "Good morning beautiful. I love you." A random call in the middle of the afternoon just to say, "Baby, I'm here to pull you through." My teddy is slowly teaching me to let it all go My teddy bear is teaching me to let my emotions flow I sometimes get a little crazy and lose control I sometimes lose sight of whats in my soul My teddy bear steadily speaks in my ear Everything in sight reminding me that he's still here My teddy bear texts just to say, "Good morning beautiful. I love you." A random call in the middle of the afternoon just to say, "Baby, I'm here to pull you through." I look around and see you everywhere Every moment reminding me that you'll be there Your wisdom and knowledge fills my ears Your presence in my heart says you're still here My teddy bear My teddy bear
I've been a lot of places in this land, From sea to shining sea. There's a place in the hills of Arkansas That means more than them all to me, A little wildwood church where people meet To praise the Lord above. They don't have a lot of money, But they're rich in a thing called love You'll see a friendly smile upon each face The moment you walk in. They'll make you feel so loved and right at home, That you'll want to go back again. They will pour you out a cup of kindness And hospitality; Then they'll take you home and feed you, And they'll treat you like family. You're always more than welcome; There's no lock upon the door. There's preaching and singing and praising the Lord, And they know what the altar's for. Don't look for a grand cathedral, Standing proud and tall; It's a humble little church, beside the road, At Ben Hur Arkansas.
I heard he wrote a good line That he had flair and style And as I read his work That captured me for a while And there he was, this gray beard A stranger to my heart Strumming my soul with his keyboard Writing my emotions with his heart Caressing me softly with his rhyme Caressing me softly with his rhyme Caressing me softly with his love I felt all elevated my Emotions all on fire I felt that he knew me Read my thoughts outloud I prayed he won't leave me Just keep on caressing me awhile for he was Strumming my soul with his keyboard Writing my emotions with his heart Caressing me softly with his rhyme Caressing me softly with his rhyme Caresssing me softly with his love He wrote poems as if he knew me In my darkest days Then he read right through me Oh! How much I really craved For he was Strumming my soul with his keyboard Writing my emotions with his heart Caressing me softly with his rhyme Caressing me softly with his rhyme Caressing me softly with his love Caressing me softly with his l--o--v-e (This is a take off on the song "Killing Me Softly With His Song". I heard it as an instrumental and this just hit me. It applies to all soupers whose poetry has touched my heart as well as some of my well know poets and poetessess.) Written by: Sara Kendrick
A song of a sparrow in the springtime. Birds chirp a lullaby at the peak of the morning sun. Speedy is the dragonfly, wish I could catch just one. Clovers fill the meadow and daisies are in bloom. Brilliant as the rainbow heanen's scent perfumes. I hear a sparrow singing sweet tunes of joy and glee. Sing a song sweet sparrow, sing a song for me. As springtime goldenrods glow. I see a sweet sparrow perched upon a rose. Elegant are the carnations, and honeybees buzz me by, God's mighty creations of tender springtime. I hear a sparrow singing a joyful melody. Sing a song sweet sparrow, whistle in the breeze. Lilacs spread their fragrance. Daffodils line the creek. In the wind the lilies dance, and crickets chirp at my feet. I hear a sparrow singing such a sweet tune. Sing a song sweet sparrow, lift the morning dew. Sing a song the prince of love and let the music flow. Drowning in sweet melodies I open my window. Perched upon the cedar tree a mighty little bird. Singing tunes of springtime for all to be heard.
Someone is lost and afraid Someone who wanders the night Someone who cries in the dark And who waits for the light Someone clings by a thread, Under harsh summer skies... Someone we pass on the street There are strangers we see Whose paths we have crossed Where the cruel fates were tossed Where loneliness creeps Where all hope has been lost Don't cast aside...give just a glance Where heartache abides, offer a chance To heal wounded pride Don't brush aside Somewhere are those who have none Alone in the sun Somewhere a hungry child sleeps and a mother that weeps So frightened each day of being alive Look in her eyes... Someone who needs just a friend Someone who needs helping hands Someone who, like it or not Will need you to share..... a little, a lot, Help her survive, or give him a start A gift, big or small, a piece of your heart, Carry her pain, so she can walk tall...... On a bright summer's day Bring Christmas their way... Where rainbows begin To a place in the sun Where the smiles never end Don't look away ....be someone's friend.. Give a piece of yourself Don't sit on the shelf Bring joy to those eyes... A Christmas surprise Wrapped with love in July!!
For years no time for God I had, In a sin filled blackened heart. Now thinking back it makes me sad, That I gave my Lord, no part. Now, I worship not a God afar, In clouds that I must part. Not one who's found just in a star, But resides within my heart.
When close friends depart this life And voice, by time, is stilled. There's left within our hearts a void With fond memories to be filled. In dawns muted hours, I still recall Jerry's witticism as if today; Though recent years have bolted Since time whispered him away. Theretofore I'd regarded not pain As being part of our friendship's cost. Until death's gurney slowly passed And I beheld the friend I'd lost.
Smiling is infectious, you can catch it like the flu. When somenone smiled at me today, I started smiling too. I turned around the corner and saw my own grin, When he smiled I realized I had passed it on to him. I thought about that smile, then understood its work. A single smile just like mine, could travel round the earth. So if you see a smile begin, don't leave it undetected. Let's start an epidemic quick, and get the world infected.
Duality spreading through the land Above my head; beneath my hands The greatest darkness I'll become Or one to show you the brightest sun Open my eyes unto this world Forget the silence I had heard Lingering on into this earth A sense of evil without worth Open my eye as I recall Imagination as I fall The pain of knowing what I was A monster blinded by their cause A pleasurable passion to restart The thought of choices in my heart Not what to follow - to agree Instead remembering humanity Create a universe from sand Building foundations without my hands Turning the darkness into light With a simple understanding of the night The paradoxes I can find Knowing we're not free will free our minds In seeing shadows we feel the sun Closing our eyes reveals freedom
Have you ever felt hopeless? Thinking there's no one to care. Is there someone in your past? At whose memory you stare. Don't take the hide off yourself Or think perhaps your not decent. For mistakes you have made Even if they've been most recent. For we spend our entire lives Wrestling with thorns in our flesh. For the good seed and bad Are two that never will mesh. And you can love other people Though one day they've hurt you. Like we hurt God each day In things we've said or failed to do. We all face temptations daily Of one stripe or another. God was tempted but sinned not Nor tempts he any other. Though we try hard as we may To live a committed life above sin; While in this earthly body We're inclined to mess up again. Written for a special friend, Shirlene
BOUND We're bound from birth, our path too clear Conformity reigns, we dare to veer Play it straight and fall in place Buckle down, you'll win the race Need for expression, no need for that Everyone needs to wear the same hat Wander off course or stray from path You're ostracized, beware the wrath Creative types, you know the ones Their unkempt hair and lack of funds The artsy crowd without a care Berets worn black, causeless flair Yet abstract form and deviceful eye Radiate light on gray streaked sky Without free thought we play the fools We must transcend archaic rules Linear thinking it has its place In modern times it makes a case But if one dares to lose one's face I just might love this human race

In his arms In His Arms you bury your head into his chest and release tears of anguish fury and disbelief. Gently he caresses your back and says those four little words you were longing to hear. Not "Everything will be alright" But "I'll make everything better" and at that moment a ton of burden is lifted from your chest and into his hands, but to him feel as light as a feather. Trust is elevated and at most high because hearing those words from his honey thick voice makes it ooze from his skin. Unknowingly you find out not only does he sympathize but he empathizes because once in his life not only has he felt the same way, but you'd once said those same words and lifted a similar burden from his body reassuring you of his motives of loving you. His arms wear scars from childhood, hard work and labor, to him they're not appealing, to you they're a work of art. It should be part of the suffix ology because you've study every detail of his skin, down to the six beauty marks and a tiny recent cut on his left leg right below his knee. Those arms scream protection when they're around you. Not just physical protection but protection from what the world thinks of you. In those arms there's no judgment, in those arms there's no need to be perfect, contradicting his kind hold on you, in his arms you are liberated. Just longing to be in his arms .
My God. My Rock. My Strength. My Friend. My Life. My Faith. My Anytime. My Everytime. My Day or Night. My Always Right. My Lord. My Saving Grace. My Home. My Safest Place. Through everything, You're everything: My every want and every need.
Distinct tones paint our skins, eyes per chance not set the same. Strange sounds oft gush forth As we tongue another's name. Differing tenets fill our heads, Our origin is sundry places. Yet in these times of crises, Americans, having divergent faces. I'm indebted to the heroes, To God and country in which I live. For those who grieve our fallen, For still others, who unselfishly give? Today as I survey old glory, flying at half-mast a sky. I observe black billowing smoke, 'Amongst a dampened eye As I consider Cadavers yet unfound, Neath terrorist strewn debris. I know our world will not exist, As previously seen by me.
I only hear the silence as I stride, Twixt granite chairs neatly set in rows. The 169 chairs epitomize each life, Now neath a sea of grass that grows. My psyche periodically visits this place, All be it, here, their Spirits do not rest. However, a Monument and Reflection pool, Usher memories, as if at their behest. Still I visualize a chain link fence, With images, blossoms, Pandas and such. A transitory memorial that reaches out, To asphyxiated lives, as if to touch. For certain, I dare not challenge, The eternal rest, of those who sleep. But pausing at each chair, in silence, I recall this day's events and weep. I would to God, that casualties, Could discern today, my thoughts about. Then from the quiescence of this place, Would emerge an angelic shout. For I tire of silence.

When you have downfall on your mind chaos is all a mind can find, its time to change all the things you had held so deep inside, they cause rage, your trapped in while your caught up in the cage of life an easy life with out strife, no more pain or struggle inside a bubble and you want to make it burst, but first things first you know the times that come will be the worst, because its change you want, and you will taunt the ones who set the curse. They say if you want to change a little then its your choice, but if you want to change a lot they must first hear your voice, loud enough for all to hear, listen and all of the problems soon disappear, just know that the world can be a bleak one and people dont always listen so you cannot only speak once, so when the end is near you can look back at the goodtimes throughout all the years think about all the times and cheer, and thank god you lived this long and your still here. Be remembered only for the words you spoke, for you do not want to be invisioned inside a cloud of smoke, watch as they listen when you start to feel the choke on the thoughts about your life,a bad life, a black life, envoloped in fear you were hoping that the man would hear, and maybe take a listen, to diamonds in your mind as you watch them glisten. finally move to a position, and open your ears and let your mind be clear, and hear the wisdom spoken from the person on the otherside of the mirror, society sobriety with out a clue just sit and ponder at the deepest thoughts that are revealed in you...
Tonight as my baby girl started to pray She said God it's 8 O'Clock, And God We need to talk. She said daddy help me pray, And daddy bow your head, As we knelt beside her bed. she said God can you hear me? Mommy always said you'd hear me, If I would learn to pray, And that you would show me the way. Well God I don't understand. Why you took my mommy away. Daddy always says i'll understand, When I grow up some day. She said God, you need your son. Well I need my mommy to, And I know that my daddy, Would be happier with mommy. Cause daddy talks to her, And mommy's not even there. God can you please, Give my mommy wings, So she can come to see us. She always kept our house clean, And God I know, She keeps your house clean to. And God I miss mommy's big hugs, Daddy says your son gives hugs to. So I know if my mommy had wings, She could hug me and daddy. Well God I want to thank you, For being there to listen, And God think about what I said. And tell mommy that I love her, And God I love you to. Oh just one more thing God, Help my daddy stop crying. Thank you God, Amen, Then she turned to me and said, Goodnight daddy, I love you. I was still on my knees, Beside my little girls bed, With tears running from my eyes. I gave my baby a goodnight kiss, And said sweet dreams baby girl. Then I went to my room, And kissed my wife's picture, And with tears in my eyes, I knelt down to pray, I said God, We need to talk.
I imagine the echo of the once thundering herds, Before the Bison succumbed to the tallow vats. I listen for symphonies of the missing songbirds, That made the Osage foothills their habitat. The land that was theirs is no longer pristine, Now the hills are interspersed with pump-jacks. Barbed wire fences make today's boundaries clean, And pickup trucks are the source of most tracks. In scrutinizing my thoughts I invariably ask why? While realizing that time man can't rearrange. Then God paints a sunset on the evening sky, An awesome portrait that man can't change.
Where have you gone Sweet Mother Of Mine To that Wonderful Sparkling City Paved with Golden Streets And Pearly Gates Where You'll Shed No More Tears And have No Fears Oh' Sweet Mother Of Mine Thru brilliant stars Your soul did fly Across that Heavenly sky To join the Heavenly Host of Angelical Beings In search of that Ivory Coast To plant Your Spiritual Feet With Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour Oh' Sweet Mother Of Mine To visit with Loved Ones Who've gone Home before You Must be a Sweet Reunion Indeed Just a few short days and I shall join You From the Cradle to the Grave Oh' Sweet Mother Of Mine
If I had over 10,000 dreams You'd be the only thing my mind could see Judgment couldn't be real Succumbing to the fear of this cold life Find a way to break through The self-destruction of wordly delusions Don't tell me I've lived so long in a lovely illusion Break me down until we find a Nirvanic state Then bring me a savior from transgressions An atoning sacrifice Send down to me a messenger for me to submit to Bring me the truth to break through The delusion Bring me the messenger to explain it all And let me leave behind Sorrow's caressing the earth The caliphate stole my heart Without a will to fight But I have the Means to be free I'll try to go with the word I believe But so many stones to be thrown Stakes to burn, limbs to break Faces to hate, scorns to taste Will I have the will to die Despite all of the tears no one will cry Sorrow's caressing the earth The caliphate stole my heart Broke my will Safetefied my soul Martyr for the Unorthodox word Sorrow's caressing the earth The caliphate stole my heart Without a will to fight But I have the Means to be free I'll try to go with the word I believe But so many stones to be thrown Stakes to burn, limbs to break Faces to hate, scorns to taste Will I have the will to die Despite all of the tears no one will cry Sorrow's caressing the earth The caliphate stole my heart Broke my will Safetefied my soul Martyr for the Unorthodox word
Beyond each of our hills He leaves a valley, beyond each arid stretch He'll place a stream. Beyond each troubled time we may be facing, God gives us hope and allows us to dream. Beyond each sunlit day He made a sunset, Beyond each moonlit night He fixed a dawn. Beyond each daily problem we may encounter, God is always there gently urging us on. Beyond each planting time comes a harvest, Beyond each harvest a separation there'll be. Beyond each separation, an eternity to spend, God is asking, won't you spend it with me.
In the loss of expectation, for a loved one, a lovely dream; one that is, one that will be, one that will depart. We grieve, we wonder, we imagine. We wonder about what might have been, we imagine what could have been. Yet, in the uncertainty of what might have been, what could have been, there lies the certainty of what is, what will be; the certainty of our love, for that loved one, for that lovely dream. In this certainty, lies our solace, sufficient to secure our peace, stable to stand the challenge of circumstance, strong to stand the test of time, fit to fill the hollow echoes of uncertainty, certain to dispel the uncertainty of what could have been; the uncertainty of what might have been (Dedicated to Dora Serna)
When lyric is not a groovy drama the minds' leads ail, and strain stepped-settle over paths strive by darkness or hells oh heart so gone At dawn, by the shines sun In any target's time ... infeasible the crowds seeking able being peace for dewy from sorrow, oh vipers in over motion, At sudden appeared by the paths — and upper deeply notions feel ill by idle jealous being-while at cycles of happier birds flies ... Or fauna gauges wind around. When lyric is not a drama the minds are trail empty, crowds at emotive offs ahead draft and tour recklessly begrime, and idlers bull dogs standing up —of course Overly in brittle then! –so, men Thou roar grin cans, at joy and safe.
there is an intense ageless quality to an autumnal day in October that embraces the past, and all its wistful tenderness the present and its disturbing sameness and the future, with its unknown quantity of joy and sadness
Our Love was a young Love That was said would never last From 'Nam through Bush We've stood the test of time It may not be that hot, steamy, lustful Love we once shared But it's a steady compassionate, respectful, reverence we share We're still crazy about each other It's oh' so plain to see By the way we bicker and fight all too frequently Shall we say, We've both gotten the better part of each others' lives Thank Heaven for Miracles we've made it thus far It still gives me a thrill to see that sparkle in his eye From across a crowded room He'll attempt to turn me on I just hope he never loses that love and desire that he has for me We're devoted to each other It was our destiny
Will you walk with me? I feel a change help me see One I should have made so long ago Will you talk with me and see me grow For if I don't succeed in the journey I may fall into another lost eternity Help me leave my pain in the past My life is moving way to fast So Lord will you walk with me? Under the starving oak tree
A simply fallen angel. Who ventured to far from home. She's been captured, bound, and stolen now. Encased in precious stones. She wept, slept and kept herself. Away from worldly wrongs. In a place of simple loneliness. A place of simple song. And Our simply fallen angel. Who just won't believe. I'm a lost ghostwell gathering. Or treasure tossed out to sea. Fallen to a pirate band. Then recorded to CD. As a simple song of simple hopes. Of shining stars thought telescopes. As hidden light behind the notes. The music hides from man. But as light flies from gem to gem. You'll hear her holy singing voice. And see her holy sin. But she has found beauty in this life yet. As she heard a song and could not forget. That man she met on Sixth Avenue. Who forgot the world and sung the truth. And on the spawning dawn of judgment day. You'll hear them in the wind. With their simple song of loneliness. And their simple song of sin.
Don't try to reside within my head Transforming me to be like Joe or Sam. Merely try to be a friend instead Accepting me, like God, the way I am. For you can't crawl into my skin Or experience first hand, my pain. Unless you've walked where I've been You shouldn't hold me in disdain. Thoughts I have, How can you know? Unless opting with you to share. When through unrest I chose to go I didn't leave our friendship there. Realizing that I fit not into your mold And allowing no clutter in my head. For God, gave individually, a lot to hold Don't try to transform me, accept instead. In others, seek good, and it you'll find Judge not on looks, faith or creed. For in my intellect there hangs a sign My thoughts are for friends, it reads.
At times when I'm beset with daily trials, Or burdened down with cares that life can bring. The smile that graced my face has suddenly vanished, And within myself I have no song to sing. Then all at once my mind begins to perambulate Back to a moment, upon a cruel tree. How Jesus paid the price for my salvation, I feel that His shed blood was just for me. Then oh! to get things back into perspective, I swiftly kneel and go to Him in prayer. Reflecting to the time when I first sought Him, And how with arms outstretched He met me there. So now and then when trouble comes upon me, And deal with it I feel I surely must. I'll kneel and bring my burdens all to Jesus, In Him I've placed my hope, my love, my trust.

You're my man, my mighty king, And I'm the jewel in your crown, You're the sun so hot and bright, I'm your light-rays shining down, You're the sky so vast and blue, And I'm the white clouds in your chest, I'm a river clean and pure, Who in your ocean finds her rest, You're the mountain huge and high, I'm the valley green and wide, You're the body firm and strong, And I'm a rib bone on your side, You're an eagle flying high, I'm your feathers light and brown, You're my man, my king of kings, And I'm the jewel in your crown - Jessica Harris
It matters not the direction When tempting winds may blow, But be cognizant of this one fact It's the devil that makes it so. He'll tempt us with logical persuasion And in abysmal thought we'll fret. But worry will not solve one problem Or take from us, our regret. For each time we've been so enticed Satan did so in his own due season. And while we fail to see or understand God has allowed these for a reason. Written for a special friend, Shirlene

For country, they chose to honor a call, Now the piercing sound of a rifle's report. An echoing trumpet, sadly says it all. Let us hero our young as a last resort. No image portrays our freedom's cost, Like that of a flag draped casket. A mental souvenir of war, un-tossed, On display from memory's basket. It serves to remind of a hero's place, Should we treat it as a mere statistic. For each had a home, name and face, Harboring dreams that were realistic. They abnegated those dreams for a chore, Accepting that vitality might be tried. Death isn't made a contrivance of war, But a mental souvenir from those who died.
Back in the mind of times See it for what I find Twirl the world While it spins I can twirl the world I'm bringing back the old days Seeing these brutal type ways Twirl the world While it spins I can twirl the world I can see my future Standing alive Walking amongst deadly ways And yet I still thrive My message is very clear From beginning to end Enemies and foes amongst me Yet who is my friend God told me not to worry In time I will tell All that you need to know To do things well The key is very simple Nothing in life comes for free Determination is what I find In this mystery I have got my head in the clouds So time will not pass me by Wondering what I need But if I would only try Where I am going from here Nobody really knows I guess I will try to keep it simple In my next tomorrow Back in the mind of times See it for what I find Twirl the world While it spins I can twirl the world I am bringing back the old days Seeing these brutal type ways Twirl the world While it spins I can twirl the world I am standing in the midst of a sea clear, bright, and blue I am looking for somebody But I do not know who I need answers to solve daily problems So I go to the man Who keeps the world revolving If I am in Him And He is in me A crucial door just opened So now I can see I am on the outside and still looking in Praying for answers daily in this battle I win The war will be over soon But I will still enjoy time of peace Knowing it starts within me To keep my mind at ease So go on and put the globe down On my finger let it spin And that is the very message That I have to send So that everyone will know Who is in control As the story unfolds In the hand God holds Back in the mind of times See it for what I find Twirl the world While it spins I can twirl the world I am bringing back the old days Seeing these brutal type ways Twirl the world While it spins I can twirl the world I can twirl the world While it spins I can twirl the world
When things go wrong as they sometimes will, When the road you're running seems all up hill, When the funda are low and the debts are high, And you want to smile but you have to sigh. When care is pressing you down a bit Rest if you must but don't you quit! Life is strange with it's twist and turns As everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a failure turns about When you might have won but ypu struck out. So don't give up though the pace seems slow, You may succeed with another blow. See succees is failure turned inside out. The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you can never see how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far. So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit, Because it's when things seem wrong that YOU MUST NOT QUIT! Jessica Harris
You know what hurts the most what hurts the most is when you a total stranger treats you better than who you`re with It hurts the most when you turn to your friends,and they`re the ones that ends up hurting you the most. It hurts the most when you go to your family for comfort, and in return of what you ask for they turn their back, stick their nose up at you as if you were a stranger off the street. It hurts the most when kids are having kids. It hurts the most when females no longer respect their values as a LADY, MOTHER, and COMPANION. It hurts the most when men don`t respect women for what they are WORTH. It hurts the most when you put your all,then to watch it just slip away right in your face and you can`t do absoutely anything about it. It hurts the most when you see people who are addicts. It hurts the most when we as society can`t see that the government don`t really care about us. It hurts the most when those who are fortunate can`t look at for those less fortunate. It hurts the most when you see how the world is. It hurts the most when society can not respect and overlook me as being black, a lady, and a LESBIAN. It hurts the most when young boys and girls are not getting the right information aboutschool, sex, and drugs. Final It hurts the most when people forget there is a GOD.

I'm just a person not a tree to be climbed, Or trampoline to jump on when so inclined. A Frisbee I'm not, to be tossed in the wind, Or a carrier pigeon so me, please don't send. I'm no welcome mat to be laid at one's door, To wipe and be walked on like some rug on the floor; I'm not a balloon to hold anothers hot air, Nor am I a wagon to be pulled here and there. Count me not as a scapegoat when things go askew, Endeavoring to tickle my ears as you invariably do. I seek no man's pity and God made me no fool, Allowing myself to be used makes me that person's tool. Unlike the planted oak The hardiest of trees, I must be free to go, like wind, when I please. I wasn't placed here to compete in life's race, I'm just a person who requires Solitude and "Space";
When darkness encompasses about you, And it seems your world's tumbling down. Just look to Jesus who will lift you up, And spread His love all around. For His love is all eternal, His mercy and grace is your friend. He'll never leave nor forsake you And he'll be there 'til the end. For somewhere over the rainbow, The sun comes shining through. The darkness of night is past shadow, And you'll know He walks beside you. Believe that you're never alone, Let Jesus be your guide. Trust Him, for He'll take care of you No matter or what err' betide. So anchor your soul in Jesus, For on Him you can depend. Nobody can do you like Jesus There is no better friend.
Painted clouds of ocean shores Purple glowing golden isles Dreamland harbors shadow moors Brimming eyes of saddened smiles Out of reach still darker turning In a hundred thousand miles Trail of fire on changing canvas Mosaic view through splintered tiles Filled with other stars aburning Spinning time the tie that binds us Opens senses and beguiles While ever patient death yet finds us Astride of hope with all her wiles
I was in clique We had everything we wanted and was lovin it But then one night I got really sick And death I barely missed So I said to myself I've had enough of this I decided to quit But then I thought about who was the leader of my clique It was the devil and he wasn't havin it So he had his people watchin me closely 'Cause he already knew who I was about to go see I went to church and the spirits followed me in The only thing I want is be freed from this life of sin So they started trippin and grabbin, kickin and stabbin Fillin my head with voices wantin me to make the wrong choices But I don't wanna go back So I got down on my knees And started beggin Lord please Don't let me go back to where I was When I was drinkin and lookin for a quick buzz I felt you when I was on the corner sellin drugs When I was pimpin and low-ridin with the thugs But I changed all for you because There's now a difference between where I am and where I was So the word got back to who I thought was the boss He said "get her back, no matter what the cost" But little did he know the old me was lost And the only place you'll find it is on the old rugged cross So the "boss" is now in a total mess Hatin every minute that I was getting blessed And then it happened… I died What's goin on? I wasn't ready to leave But I gotta remember every thing works out for those who believe It was really quiet as I stepped up on the platform And as I lifted my head the person standin there was the Lord With Jesus at His right and the Holy Spirit on His left Let me just be real and say I was a nervous wreck The judgment didn't take longer than a minute They had reached a verdict GUILTY… A big smile went across my face when I heard it He said "Well done my good and faithful servant"
The waves slide over the shore Leaving tiny, squiggly trails The moon and sun battle for the sky And the big, bright moon prevails. The beach is shrouded in darkness Dimmly lit by only one light That dances through the undertow Marching its way through the plight. A stencil of gray laces the sky Creating a vision of death Slowly overcoming the shore 'Til it takes its last breath. The ocean itself which had once held So much life in its depths Has become drowned in its own contents It is meeting its own death. A storm lashes its way Solmnly across the sky To make room for what will unleash That will cause the very moon to cry. Dancing and waltzing across the shore, The moon sadly turns away She can't bear to see her ocean like this And witness it going astray. With one, final, swift motion, She casts her love out to sea The love she held deeply for her ocean The world, and all her countries. She makes her way back to where she belongs And lets the sun take over the sky I didn't, in all my years, Think I would ever see the moon cry. But she shed those tears so bravely And dried them so nonchalant She turned and made her way back to the sky Like it was something she could never want. The moon had lost the battle And, defeated, began to fade away Then the sun began to dance, too To celebrate a brand-new day.
I scratch my head and too often wonder And while gazing hinder I see disarray. I recall those times of my err and blunder times void of Jesus to brighten my day. As I posed the question did any care? The obvious answer I was unable to see. Until life became more than I could bear I found Jesus was patiently waiting on me. I realized that countless agonized for me Through prayer straight to God's throne. But from blinded eyes I'd refused to see Attempting to do things on my very own. But during a crisis I became spirit broken For my body was now stricken with cancer. I surrendered life entire, not just a token I accepted Jesus Christ as the living answer.
Through time alone A broken heart will heal. It seems time always changes How we feel. Although we think the pain Will never end. The Lord above will help[ Our hearts to mend. But time is such As man cannot control. And through the years It lets our hearts grow cold. But the memories of their lives We'll cherish still. Knowing that they Were God the fathers will.
You have to fly to keep your wings, You have to look to see better things; You must have faith otherwise, you'll fall, and before you can run you first, must crawl; How can you have hope if you don't believe? If you don't even try You'll never achieve; If you wan't to know you'll just have to learn, You can not touch fire and expect no burn; You must wake up before you can dream, and it can look like gold but that thing won't gleam; You have to be honest if you want the truth, to see into the future Take a look at the Youth; If you want it to be Love it must touch the Heart, Love never has to end if you know where to start; Don't ever feel alone We all get hurt, Every beautiful flower Must Rise up from the Dirt.
Someday, Some way I will shine again The light will hit my eyes I'll no longer need to hide The strength I have within Will surely show again This weakness that I feel Will fade and disappear
My love is strong. I use you though the many things you've done wrong. The road was long but the past is gone and now you have a new song. A new page to flip; A new chapter to write; A new part on this big script. Satan may try to tempt you as tainted but don't you listen to his games because your life will be my testimony too. And now the new words you'll speak and the lives you'll renew will bring glory to me and my son who was slew. Though I warn you, in this new page your company will be few People may not get you but they'll run later coming to you with their issues They'll see how you've overcame and then you'll tell 'em bout me and your life will then be shown my testimony. . . You live my testimony.
Sometimes my mind ponders, and I sit in wonder, why does God love me? Because getting along with me can't be easy. But thankfully He's faithful, nothing I can do to change Him. Unconditional, He fills my cup to the rim. There are days like today that I need a refilling, and I know that my God is forever willing. I can gain the world but lose my soul, I'd much rather stay complete and whole. Because friendships come and fade away, but I know my God is here to stay.
Here's my plea: Let's write a poem for the world to read; And in it is a message that all can relate or heed; Encourage others to pick a pen instead of a gun; With this poem let people be taught to bond all spirits, whether in distress or in joy with a smile; This poem we write be a reminder that life is fragile; That peace is at hand, only if we want to achieve; People will learn to greet enemies and they shall be received; All of us can write, whether you're white, black, or brown; Just believe in what you can do; and not to aspire the crown Of hate, if you dare tomorrow comes without tears, Nor will there be worries of living in fears; With this poem, people will burst not In paroxysm of rage, but, be inspired to share a lot Such as love, hope, or maybe, just give a friendly kiss; You know, it's easy to write a poem, than writing peace.
Alcohol consumption can be a complete nightmare You can lose your life and your family So drugged up, you can't even play solitaire Alcohol will give you a sense of disorder Missing your child's birthday party From one drink to the next Never knowing your life is a complete wreck Not knowing the alcohol long term effects Not getting any respect Considered by non-alcoholics as one of life's rejects Soon to be one of life's unknown subjects Alcohol makes you do stupid things Sleeping around, married and hiding your ring Continue to go to your AA meeting Remember, it's alcohol you are defeating Life is tough, but keep God in it Trust in him and see how you will benefit Live life and don't ever quit Look in the sky, so beautiful and blue Remember, it is God's creation and so are you
i know your weaknesses. I know your doubts. I know when you're feeling down. And your pessimistic thoughts. I have crippled your thought process. I have made you sulk. I even broke you down, Worrying about your insecurities. I have kept misery within your grasp. Knowing you're searching for true happiness. I've kept you away from the unknown. And all the unexperienced. I've even kept you away from love. Knowing you won't know how to handle it. Why deal with something you can't control. When you can't step up to the challenges. You've tried to get rid of me. Yeah, I know you fought back. But I've kept striking. once your defenses were down. Eating your confidence and well-being. I know one day you will find the courage, To put me out of my misery, But when you have those feelings. Of nervousness, tightness, and heat flashes, I'll be there. You know my name. cc2005fsully
Good deeds are so precious They are wonderful things All are filled with compassion Oh!...the happiness they bring! They can not be corrupted You can't buy them with cash They are gifts...they are blessings And they come in a flash! Good deeds have a voice And they whisper so clear Of great tragedies, deep poverty Things wrapped up in fear They tell of the darkness; Deep sorrows - fierce pains They will whisper of wishes That have turned into shame Some tell of the hopeless Knowing not what to do They don't realize they are waiting For someone like you When desperate times...Oh! Destructions...they come! Good deeds with compassion Will bring hope to some A good deed can be all That it takes at times They will help others turn From the dark to sunshine! Do keep an ear open Keep an eye open too; They may tell of a good deed That is waiting for you How sweet are the feelings That comes from good deeds As you bless someone else By fulfilling their needs Good deeds are quite precious Very powerful things... They are filled with compassion See? The hope that they bring?

They move me, they soothe me, they let me live, for it is you that I need and my heart I will give. You touched me like I never have felt before, you start my heart breathing so fast until I can hardly let go. I feel your words like sand on a beach they are still in my head and will never decease. Your words are so brand new and alive, for they are the only thing that is helping me to survive. You touched my heart like no other I have known, the way in which you love me I wil never do you no harm. Your words is like an ocean running free, all I want them to do is pour all over me. You touched my heart like a child playing with a toy, he love it so much because it brings him so much joy. That is how you touch my heart, giving and bringing me so much joy, it makes me feel like a child with his new toy. You touched my heart every day of my life, that is why I do not care about all the sacrifice. I wil do everything to make you happy just as long as I know I am the apple of your eye and that you will do or say nothing to make me cry. You touched my heart from this day forward, there can never be another you because you are what I need and it is me for you and you for me that is the only way it is going to be. you touched my heart.
generic minds listen to generic music have generic thoughts that are unknowingly abusive watch generic things talk about generic things gee this generic *****is spreading like a disease better get your flu shot thats what they said to me a suicidal vaccine a subliminal killing spree its contagious and the outrageous thing about it is that the people are blind in an eye that they didn't even know they had it's sickening to watch these clueless civilians inside the looking glass with nightmares of being free without a key to their mind for it is trapped in the frequency in the illusion of time bathed in our universe killing all that refuse to see those that admit to hypocracy or see the message in hip hop how cant you see the message in the lyrics that bring adolescents to their knees from bullet wounds conflicting their flesh contradicting that they're the best but the songs keep telling them that they dont need no rest that they dont wanna go home that they should ride alone with the gat as their only companion and so the only path they choose is the one that they're told until they grow old and hope turns to a window pane inside a window pane, until all they feel is pain they realize that the music itself is ashamed so whats to look up to when you cant even speak when you cant even walk because you look so bleak your eyes are sunken from the tv you're infested with the dee zees now its too late to turn around and live for your conscious so when youre screaming oh please close your eyes and bring your mind to life open your eyes for the first time and never wonder why since the answer this entire time has been inside and you better find it before you die you dont want your soul to be in a pool with all the others a buncha brothers missing their mothers but only seeing strangers only feeling the haters wishing they would have used their minds when they had them and now its too late, now it's time for another new born fate to grab them
The sun receded quietly on a relaxing siesta, as Calm clouds of the mid-afternoon smiled henced, The beat of the drums provideth dancing rhythm As she moved in pure elegance with harmony, to A style of danced buoyantly bouncing in melody. Crafted beadworks accented her warmth charm, Under her delicately brown-jeweled moccasins The grass provideth such a natural cushion, As Angular unique flexings of her gentle knees Resonated like an eagle's stealthy landing Quietly in its nests with an eye on a nice prize. She tingled as the sound of bells jingled Sending pure melodic rhythm to ears—many! Whilst she turned in an elegantly slow motion Fringes from her shawl swayed air of warmth. The balls of her feet moved in slight degrees as Her heels touched Mother Earth softly in harmony, She smiled as the judges watched intently. Like A graceful dove she floated with precision—uniquely! Her buckskin regalia trimmings—so singed softly! As she danced in the sunset evening's twilight; She created an energetic circle of life's fire Yet, never raised her ceremonial feathered fan, Whilst in clear focus emerged from the dance Regal styles of proud cultural Native heritage A contrastingly exquisite fine female figure Arousing sights in the soft evening's twilight, Dispelling the uncertainly to even look twice, Elegantly noble and much marvelously nice: She was naturally—First Woman! ~~~~~~~~~**********~~*~~~~~~~~~ Written During Oneida Nation Annual 2010 Independence Weekend Pow-wow Celebration Host Drummers – Bear Creek Oneida, Wisconsin, Bordering Green Bay ~~~~~~~~~**~~*********~~~~~~~~~ Won Honorable Mentioned Prize Images Contest Sponsored by Frank Herrera 7/15/10 ~~~~~~~~~**~~*********~~~~~~~~~

Overlook a lifetime past Remember how it did not last Life changes quickly before your eyes. This so called reality surrounded by lies. A sad thought it may seem I do not want to open my eyes to another dream. Real reality set in. Lets look forward and begin I am in this game of life to win. I will not give up and lose. I will stand tall even though I am battered and bruised.
Verse 1 I've had this dream now for a while, But the real world's where I choose to stay, The time is now for standing up, To reach out for that brighter day. Chorus Unite to lend a hand to those who are in need, Unite against them, whose souls are consumed by greed, Unite and lend a hand, and we can change the world, We're the ones we've been waiting for. Verse 2 Walking past two souls holding hands, I see that it's true love conquers all, A dreamland where we all sing and dance, And hands to catch us should we fall. (Chorus) Bridge United, it's in our hands, United, it's how we stand, United, across all lands. Empathy, we understand, Together, it's how we stand, Unite with one voice, One Hand.
Your face, Made a fake smile, (you said) I love you, I need you, I want you just for a while, You told me, That I made you smile, All the things you said to me, Are just words now, How can we love, When you love me for yourself, (This Aint Love) Chorus: 2x What are we doin, If this love ain't real, What is this feeling, That I feel, I'm broken in emotion, I'm broken in love, (you said) I need you, I want you You're the only one, I'm thinkin of, (so tell me) How can we love, When there's always someone else, (This Aint Love) Chorus 2x Bridge: How can we love, When there's always someone else, How can we make up, When you only love me for yourself, verse #3: You got me imprisoned, Inside your heart, When kissed I felt, Like we, Would never be apart, chorus 2x
We race to work then home again The less we make the more we spend It doesn't matter what we do We can't take it when life is through But still we want the next big thing We save it, hoard it, stash and cling Each idle treasure we pursue We can't take it when life is through But there's a revolution coming To stop all the insanity A challenge that we recognize These things are only vanity! These things are only vanity! Men before us fought for land To use in ways God never planned Earth that wasn't theirs alone No territory's ever owned Now look at us, nothing has changed Only our methods rearranged To fit the latest fad and craze Could this be the End of Days? 'Cause there's a revolution coming To stop all the insanity A challenge that we recognize These things are only vanity! These things are only vanity! Check your heart, look to your soul Is it really "well" within? If there be one thing keeping you Away from God it's surely sin Get rid of all that would obscure The grace of Him who sets you free Let loose the binds of earthly things For all of that is Vanity! Yes, there's a revolution coming To stop all the insanity A challenge that we recognize These things are only vanity! These things are only vanity! © Donna Golden, 2010
Look for the Good look deep if you must Open up your heart and give me a fresh start One little thing to trigger it off and you never see the good in me Why do you torment me with one mistake? Look for the Good for Goodness sakes Look for the Good you might see the Good in you!

The walking man walks with no place to go, Head tucked down with his eyes lookin' low. We gotta reach out We gotta hold his hand We gotta reach out To the walking man He's seen it all, lived the wars out there. Now he's blowing around like a leaf in the air. We gotta reach out We gotta hold his hand We gotta reach out To the walking man Walking man don't mean no harm he don't mean to lie. He's just one careless face from a way to die, a way to fly, to say goodbye….. So it's you and me and the walking man makes three; Such a better number to be. He's tired and warn like a piece of coal, But he could light the city with the light in his soul. We gotta reach out We gotta hold his hand We gotta reach out To the walking man Walking man don't mean no harm he don't mean to lie. He's just one careless face from a way to die, a way to fly, to say goodbye….. Because it's you an me and the walking man makes three; Such a better number to be ©2013C.LBaker
Let the Deicide commence. You're a voyeur at best! Your vampiric heart is beating out of your chest! And you have slayed the ones whom would love you for anything less Ready to consume the final fragments of innocence, And for you there is no forgiveness, On your knees pleading, screaming to a tyrant in the skies; The father of lies. I will never be enslaved in your superiority The people agree: jaded of your false dichotomies. Know: I will be whomever nature intends to be Apollo and I will share our dreams, and you will be forced to see your failure! I know who you are... Readily the first to present your scars Chained by some despot or mental czar An emotional homunculus in your mind, behind bars Reluctant to escape - even when proven fake Your demented mind - depths no one will penetrate! ...And you see me suffering Not caring of any casualties Just as long you recieve your safeguard of sympathy So very wary of the masses and their Anarchy; Liberious ways Solipsist - Is there no one you can see? Even if she was presented burning? Solipsist - Is there no one you can believe? Even if Sophia was screaming? Solipsist - Know you have killed and abused me Imprisoned in your own personal reality

I was just trying to remember the past trying to remember the good people and the bad people, that i came across on my way, i want you to know that you are among the good people that left a good trace in my life, once again i just want to say thank you for passing through my life, is so short but is wonderful i want you here forever.
Such an Amazing girl god put into my life. He knew i needed you at that exact time Funny when we met I thought you were to good for me But when you approached me the sweetest girl I did meet. From that day on we have never truly been apart cause I carry you around everywhere in my heart. You have been the rock when I needed a friend around, you have been the light when the darkness consumed me and took away my sunshine Even when were miles apart the phone connects us and keeps our strongest bond. 17 years feels like such a short time but I feel I have always had you in my life. Soul Sisters we were meant to be.. You my beloved friend are such a fresh breeze Even after a year apart it was like yesterday that we did part so through the many miles and through the long hard road I know this friendship will always survive. Your a burst of joy to me each day I thank the Lord for the sweet blessing he gave! BY:Christina McCullouch 7/28/2012
As cold as ice Wrapped round your brain And darkness unfolds You're breathing in pain It's been freezing here In this Land of Shattered Dreams It's been freezing here This corrupted winter stings It's been freezing here (Où est la Lavande?) Your body can't stay warm (Où est la Lavande?) It's been freezing here (Où est la Lavande?) This cruel and criminal storm (Où est la Lavande?) But don't give up Don't despair Taste the hope Floating through the air When the lavender returns It'll warm your frozen bones Vivid violet clothes In their candy overtones When the lavender returns It'll race across the land Rebel flower grows In the palm of your free hand If you look out your window The ground's parched and bare If you call for your lover She's no longer there If you ponder your life Well, it feels like a wreck And your failures are scars You can never forget As leaves turn brown Sky fades to grey You're feeling the drought The end of the day It's been lonely here In this World of Fallen Souls It's been lonely here With nowhere left to go But don't give up Don't despair Taste the hope Floating through the air When the lavender returns It'll warm your frozen bones Vivid violet clothes In their candy overtones When the lavender returns (Où est la Lavande?) It'll race across the land (Où est la Lavande?) Rebel flower grows (Où est la Lavande?) In the palm of your free hand (Où est la Lavande?) When the lavender returns (Où est la Lavande?) It'll warm your frozen bones (Où est la Lavande?) Vivid violet clothes (Où est la Lavande?) In their candy overtones (Où est la Lavande?)
We welcome the sun We welcome the sun A gleaming sunrise is seen in the distance – shedding relief Bursting forth like fireworks in the dark blue sky Hues of beauty and sincerity washes away our grief The cheery clouds come together like lovers embracing one another I'm never waving goodbye It's so surreal… and magnificent to see this scene unfold You lift up the sparkling light… you're an angel from up above It's so vibrant – the illuminated sight never dulled You bring us luck and excitement – You're as pleasant as a dove We welcome the sun We welcome the love We welcome the sun We welcome the sun To omit the darkness To abolish the distress To conceal the darkness And reveal the halo Hovering around your head Burning away the dread We welcome the sun We welcome the sun We welcome the sun An ocean of love is rubbing against my feet Blankets of comfort embrace me now… our love will never dry You treat us with reverence and I repeat – You're as pleasant as a dove – taking wing from on high We welcome the sun in the morning We welcome the sun with open arms We welcome the sun We welcome the sun We welcome the sun We welcome the sun A speedy breeze is whistling in my ears Spiraling mad like a spinning top Spiraling mad with all of its might You're very intriguing – you casted away our fears Your gorgeous eyes Project bright green and blue You're special in His sight He welcomes you We welcome the hope We welcome the sun We welcome the sun We welcome the sun To lighten up your load And lead you to the mercy road Where you and I will escape to paradise To drive out all of the negativity To conceal the wretched farewells To reveal the light in goodbye We welcome the sun We welcome the sun We welcome you With open arms
If I could empty out my mind I would put all the garbage in the trash. I would take out all the mistakes analize them to see how much I have learned. I would not take out the pain and suffering because it has given me strength and courage. I would remove all my family and friends and, put Jesus in front of them. If I could empty out my mind one day I might see a brighter future. If I could only stop dwelling on my past I could empty out my mind one day.
"Ma "Ma I wish you were still here we need to talk I need feed back from you because you understood This world is trying to swallow me up and spit me out you are not here to tell me how to handle my battles "Ma "Ma I wish you were still here we need to talk I cry sometimes when I reach out to you and you are not here I have so much fear because I remember how much I Loved you and how you were always near "Ma "Ma I wish you were still here we need to talk I need to hold your hand and go for a walk I need to hear you say everything is going to be alright I need to buy you some flowers, wish you Happy Mother's Day say how much I love you and make your day bright. "Ma "Ma we need to talk! I want to remind everyone out there that still has a Mother treat her Good while she is still in sight!
These were my confessions (A message to God) The light begins to fade (It's time to go) Back into the shadows (That hard black fog) Where darkness has its way (God rest your soul) Nothing left to tell you (It's all been said) No more songs to write (This silent Fall) Nothing left to offer (The well's been bled) From a shadow's waning life (Who lost it all) Take my words and hold them (Don't be afraid) Place them near your heart (And heal your pain) Shadow words will kiss you (And heal your pain) When your world turns dark (Don't' be afraid) And I kiss you Kiss you I kiss you in the dark……..
Kindheartedness is being quite generous A considerate attitude that is from the inside No price tag is placed on being accommodating Being benevolent and affectionate is cordial Willing to give everything for nothing in return. A trait that is not always an inherited tendency One to be heartily imbibed and truly developed A behaviour that stands one out in the crowd Exhibiting true amiable and amicable qualities Portraying brotherly,sisterly,fatherly & motherly love. When you are humane and quite propitious They say you are beneficient and philanthropic When you are soft-hearted or tender-hearted They talk of you as being thoughtful & understanding You are a bounteous bonhomie & benign personality. Exuding a calid courteous and altrustic aura Places you on a pedestal different from others Extraneous factors may want to impede on you The propensity of your kindheartedness surpasses Showcasing your nature as a an outstanding being.

A poem wrote by me, based on Person who is a deserving icon but still struggling hard with his career life and addressed as disturbed creature. DISTURBED CREATURE--> Am I ?? BY Mrs.Madhavi Suyog Pagare Am I so insane, Am I so mad, Dramatic mood of mine is so die hard. Destroyed my peace, Shattering my dreams, People call me as disturbed creature. As like mounting the pain, attenuating the drain!! Digesting my feelings lying inside me, Strangely nobody cared, call me sick. Teasing me lavishly and my heart is pricked, Hurted me like hell when addressed me as stupid. As like showering rain, missing on the lane!! Time lapse in journey of life, Can hamper anybody on its path. When I see innate reflex of mine, I always use to brightly shine. Though possessing every job attributes of mine, I never thought the authorities will ditch and hamper my career line. Falsely acting bloody swine, making my image as fade as wine. As like affecting harmonious divine, my soul was, as is transparently pristine!! Destroying me and testing my patience, Never wanna give up. Transformed deviations, wanna rightly screw up. I wanna raise up, I wanna shake up. I wanna wake up, Tranquilize my mind. Unzip the professional life compressed by the culprits. Wanna explore myself, driving the motivated heights of journey. Lastly waiting for the optimistic opportunity. Cuffing the suspect ,I wanna rejoice by my pattern of life!! with Suyog Pagare
It creeped upon me slow and increased day by day Something was draining all my spiritual food I could not pray without being interupted the words kept slipping away I could not sing praises making melody in my heart I was not focused on him My hope was built on nothing My Peace had been disturbed My whole body begin to shake and become weak Everything good I was once taught was being drained straight out of my head No zeal to serve him My Joy had been stolen My mind was infested with worldly things My feet walked another way My memories of the thorns on his HEAD were completly dead Thinkings of his hands and feet being pierced bothered me no more My fear of him was invisible My concern for my SOUL vanished as if it were never there How could I allow this terrible thing to happen to me in such a short time Why did I not GUARD my SOUL? I had to have been out of my MIND! STAY FOCUSED
I've been wanting you, forever Dreaming of this moment, forever Even before you knew, and I did too There's always been a me and you We're forever! The world may not be kind, forever Perhaps people will stay blind, forever But if its only me and you, that ever get a clue This uncommon love is forever true We're forever! Life will have its up and downs, forever It might be a crazy merry go round, forever But each day is new, on all of them.. I love you There's always been a me and you We're forever!

You've maddened me to the core You singed me with your ferocious fire We're opposites… we'll never integrate We can't blend with each other… Your love and I'm hate We're contrary to each other… So don't even think about Getting us back together Because without a doubt, We don't click with each other… So let us go our own way… Everything's black and white You love to torture me with your deceptive devices We're playing this chess match – let's fight! Tonight, you're going to pay the prices You're going to be deleted from my mind… I'm not the one that should pay the price You act as if you're an angel from heaven But, you're a fiend…a devil from hell...who needs your advice? Could someone unchain me from this prison? So let us prepare for that day… Fear and bewilderment build inside of our minds Taking over us…we're wasting valuable time Terror and wrath injects into our veins…time starts to unwind I'm regaining my glory…this moment feels so sublime You think you're innocent? I can sense your guilt…bleeding through you Do you live to feed me anguish? Don't deny it…you crafty demon…no wonder I feel blue Let's get ready for battle… I'll watch you decay… IT'S PAY BACK TIME . . . Taste my fury and my agony Everything's black and white You love to torture me with your deceptive devices We're playing this chess match – let's fight! Tonight, you're going to pay the prices You're going to be defeated… I scream before nightfall I close my eyes to kiss my demise I want to disappear Scratch away my desolation Wipe away my tears… Spewing out of my eyes…like a waterfall Tonight, there will be dismay There will be suffering After sundown… Failure and glory will expose like stars in the midnight sky Who will earn the crown? No one knows in silent wars – who can reveal the light in goodbye Why are we black and white? Are you too afraid to know the reason why? Everything's black and white You love to torture me with your deceptive devices We're playing this chess match – let's fight! Tonight, you're going to pay the prices You're going to suffer alone…
Tragically lost his mom and dad When he was eight years old The only thing this boy had Was a survivor's spirit so bold Court moved him to the country He didn't know a single soul His life had been a busy shovel That kept digging a bigger hole No one had been kind to him But he didn't see it that way Just smiled through the suffering He had a dream of a better day The same year a stranger felt sorry When they met handed him gum Didn't chew it, he sold the pack And his little business had begun From one pack he bought two And from those two it grew to four From four packs he made eight His emerging business hit the floor Now it's just a few years later Everything he touches turns to gold He's reached the business pinnacle And he's only 28 years old This week I was invited to a meeting So I made the trip from America To fund a massive orphan program In downtown Addis Ababa, Ethiopia My African friend, the biggest donor Once an orphan he owns the cause Ask him why he gives so sacrificially He'll smile at you and say because.. When I was just a lonely orphan lad Nothing going right that I could see That white dude standing over there Gave a single pack of gum to me And one by one I sold each piece Took those profits to buy even more And look it's just twenty years later Now orphan care is what I'm living for From a desperate hole to a mountain Never know what's going on inside All these kids need is an opportunity They can take it deep and wide When it comes to caring for the least Don't say there's nothing you can do There's always hope for the orphan So long as people like to chew... *The climber is through the eyes of a great friend in Ethiopia. From orphan to one of the most successful young men in the country. Contest: Anthony's "Pinnacle" Date: 9-30-14
I seek a place that leaves no trace Of venomous blood and tainted heart I seek a place that holds only grace Of righteous hearts and caring thoughts I seek a place that broods not on hate But of a tranquilized soul and an intellectual eye I seek a place that is haven to a guilt-filled heart Let it not, Oh! Wretched Passionate heart!! Let me not succumb to such ardency Let me not, dear god! Yield in to such tyranny To extract such murky ardor is all I ask I dine with seething lassitude brought forth by such a task Dear nature where has it gone, my obliged gratitude From you, I have averted a heart That comes to you now seeking! Asking! Groveling! For pardon Almighty nature, which once has soothed a brute within me Please! Dear god! I beg thee do not forsake I come to you humbly meekly seeking an unfeasible amnesty For I drown in to the abyss of thirst of farfetched enlightenment And only now I know"how dangerous is the acquirement of knowledge, and how much happier that man is who believes his native town to be the world, than he who aspires to become greater than his nature will allow." *Inspired by Frankenstein's tormented conscious * ~M.M.M
Lift the wailing wood Hammer the tortured nails Place the ghostly steps Below the battered rails Invite those crazy strangers Dressed in stranger clothes Join the mighty miracle Ready to unfold Building a stairway In the desert Aimed toward the pure and honest sky Building a stairway In the desert Going to rise for miles And miles Leave this evil town Where scorpions share your bed Guilty snakes make a home Deep inside your head The bleeding sun Burns your feet Hangmen joke Beggars weep Buried bodies Cry for help Undertakers Steal your wealth Building a stairway In the desert Aimed toward the pure and honest sky Building a stairway In the desert Going to rise for miles And miles We're laughing and We're dancing In the desert Dancing in the desert Of our lives Can't you see? We're dancing in the desert Dancing in the desert Of our lives Feel so free Dancing in the desert Dancing in the desert Of our lives Free….so free In the desert Dancing in the desert Of our lives Lift the wailing wood Hammer the tortured nails

BELIEVING When I believe in Darwin I am newborn in the planet I am a soup of molecules at random dancing, crazy, unconscious atoms that shaped the first all without a useless creator All was self generated before the Big Bang Including nothingness Including the everlasting all When I believe in divinity I am eternal in eternity I was never created I belong to luminescence amorous sage unknowable I am timeless tenderly pierced by living arrows when horrified by materialism so that I may be eternal in eternity descend in the perfumed fainting of a flower and feel its shock when cut be heated in the warm vibration of rocks that call me by my name to jump with the squirrel and perceive its goal as unattainable wizard and fly in the infra-worlds that the divine contrasts and pardon and repose peacefully
Strophe: The shadows know the scent of cloves, as Nyx devolves from sleep's crossroad, the night-owls croak to domes above, her ode the stars turns to abode. Her firmness strings the scene's stillness, her laughter waves in hung ether, small hours' submit her thoughts' steepness, advancing 'mid green heather. The night birds watch - with eyes of amber night wraiths descend from stardome flare, upon a sky-drome meander that ghostly travelers time-share. ----- Antistrophe: Brilliant's the moon in ventured glory, above shapes lays and daunting wraiths, her eminence surpassed souls' faith, to hark the travelers' lone story. And kind advanced to lands of blooms, as night conveyed upon each breath, she confers grand the kiss of death, with fates to weave on lethal looms. ----- Epode: On darkened growth she shines dismal, In Stygian reign she rules - abysmal, enchanted souls shall dwell in void, with Acheron's old paths destroyed. ----- © G.V. 10-03-2012, All Rights Reserved Nyx = Night
Confession Even when nothing remained And the hope was third with a yellow rain I didn't kiss the marrow of autumn Forgive me the word of pain and tear of mine I don't recognize the language of sins today I left you my soul hostage But you never whispered the Bible You crucified the saint feeling Forgive her oh Lord, even while she doesn't know what she's doing Forgive me because I believe in love You can not betray what you do not have You never felt The Lyrics of Pain The story is completely different Burn my sins tonight you death of mine While I believe yet in your infidelity
I cherish you, If you cherish me. You brought me to life, We began to meet through time, Even though, Sometimes you don't comprehend me, Sometimes you don't understand me, That sometimes time isn't enough, That sometimes instincts get uncontrolled..., But still, You were designated for my life, And you profile my living... We share lives... Although, Time brings maturity, And time doesn't last forever, As well as we don't last forever... There is no such thing, As total perfection, Even though, Thank you...
Sometimes things are up, And sometimes they are down, Sometimes black is white, And sometimes it is brown. All the rivers flowing, Back to the sacred sea, All the monkeys climbing, Up the very same tree. You think you know a lot, Think you know it all, But the autumn leaves are falling, At the north wind's lonely call. The thinking of the meaning, The reasons lost and gone, At last the place is ready, A vacant holy throne. The emptiness that fill you, Fills you from inside, Is the treasure you are holding, The bridegroom's holy bride. And now the north wind's blowing, Blowing down the Way, And now we sit here waiting, For the bridegroom's wedding day. more at http://labyrinthoflies.com

The Lord Jesus is my shepherd, Green pastures are my bed. Beside a gently flowing stream Of living waters I am led. And God feeds my hungry spirit With His manna from above. He's my shepherd, and He leads me In His paths of wondrous love. In the valley of death's shadow My soul need know no fear, For the giver of all life Is forever standing near. I am guided through the darkness By His constant, holy light. He's my Shepherd and He'll lead me Through this land of darkest night. Though the foe camps all around me, My soul is safe from harm; I am safely in the shelter Of God's mighty outstretched arm. I know Satan cannot touch me While my Savior holds my hand; He's my Shepherd, and He'll lead me To the happy promised land. He'll not leave me nor forsake me; Of this, I have no doubt. And when I get in trouble, He's right there to help me out. I have come to trust His saving power; His sure truth has set me free. The Lord Jesus my Shepherd And I know He cares for me.
Life is full of many important decisions my son Each decision is a step closer to your future Every step could lead in many directions, as a man, you must choose one Do not decide your path on others convictions, examine your own beliefs first There is nothing worst than betraying ones self; consequences are grave, believe son, it hurts Walk the path that you choose; sometimes the path gets a little rough and very steep Be mindful and learn from all setbacks, this builds character; for all our actions we must reap Stay focused on your prize, remain smart and be aggressive in your endeavors Remain humble but celebrate your accomplishments; those memories will last forever Continue to set and achieve goals; do not become content with the present Contention precipitates laziness, your hunger is subdued and eventually severed Become a strong, positive, productive and intellectual man Set the example for your children; this will be a difficult task but do the best you can Mistakes are common in life son; be responsible and rectify each and every situation Lord willing, I am preempting one, by maintaining father and son communication

I have lived, And felt the cost, Paid my dues, But I have lost_ You. Still I pray, As chaos looms, And as my blue turns into grey, I hear__ The angels sing- In tune. Don't be giving in, Don't give up my son, Or fade away, Lift your chin with the sun__ And rise, With this new day!. I have lived, And felt the cost of all my wonderin ways, I've paid my dues, I - Have lost you. I can hear the angels sing, Your in a mistaken land__ Lessons learned in truth, As the grey seeks out the blue, She will__ Your daughter my son--- She will return--- To You. For I have lived, Felt the cost of all my walkin days, I've paid my dues, I- Lost you.... I wont be giving in, Won't give up my girl, Or fade away, I'll lift my chin with the sun--- And RISE-- With this new day...
The sound of your voice made me shake inside Your mouth never opened yet my ears heard your words You reached out and touched me without using your arms As I looked upon your lips I was kissed My mind was open and shut by your very present I was deeply moved How Beautiful My Love Dedicated to my wonderful husband Yalma for Valentine"s Day
Self-portrait of prayers Millions of soul's prayers and immensity of groans In human language only as whispering sighs Torment cannot paint an ancient longing Even a word is not tempting the Lord, neither tonight Please Lord, help the children Bring me more of mother's fragrance Words of father sculpt in my forehead wrinkles On my lips let me kiss the love of sisters Do not sent away century embracement of my brother Feed my grandchildren with letters and knowledge Friends and the tribe cover me only with prosperity Oh Lord of mine, cover humanity with more goodness I remained locked in my loneliness, oh Lord I don't know a self-portrait even tomorrow, Cannot redo nor today
Draped from her body, they sparkle like gold. Tear soaked and smothered, in lies that she's told. She wears them ashamed, but she wears them with grace. To cover the pain, that is etched in her face. It's her mark, it's her passion, her reason to breathe. As shallow and weak, as pathetic can be. For the last time I saw her, was the last place she laid. Where I held her so close, deep down in her grave. No more to be seen, no more to betray. Damned and unheard, while she cried out in vain. Don't pity the evil, corrupt and forsaken. Who've strayed from the path, that they should have taken. It's all self inflicted, they live unrestricted. But on this their last day, they'll all be convicted. Etched in his body, the scars will remain. Blood soaked in madness, he's nearly insane. He wears them in anger, but he wears them with pride. To expose to the world, all his hate that's inside. It's his mark, it's his passion, his reason to breathe. As shallow and weak, as cruel as can be. But the last place I saw him, was the last time he raged. Where I beat him and broke him, deep down in his grave. No more to be seen, no more to be heard. Damned and destroyed, underneath all his dirt. Don't pity the evil, corrupt and forsaken. Who've strayed from the path, that they should have taken. It's all self inflicted, they live unrestricted. But on this their last day, they'll all be convicted. Now sift through my ashes, gather up all my bones. Let him without sin, cast the first stone. Pile me up in a bucket, and leave me to stay. So I can face my creator, on my judgement day. It's my life, it's my passion, it's what I believe. As misunderstood, as reckless can be. For the last time you saw me, was the last time I prayed. Where I dug my own hole, and laid down in my grave. No more to be hated, no more to be feared. For in my corrupt stead, an angel appeared.
Omniscient guy Yet he lets bad things happen How can he exist?
Your glorious emerald eyes Glisten in the moonlight Glisten in the moonlight Delight dances in the water I watch it joyfully You are set free from the cage... You're like a dove soaring in the sky You are the rain... drizzling down in ecstasy A hint of ecstasy is shown in your reflection... When you caress me... I'm relieved... From the stress that forced me in chains I knew we'd be on the brighter side of tomorrow We're glistening in the moonlight I knew we'd become candles in the heavens above us We're glistening in the moonlight For a moment, I felt your presence...your radiant with sympathy I saw at first glance the dark side of you Tonight, we'll be together and fly through the horizon We'll watch the sunset say its last goodbye... We'll wave a greeting at the moon! We glisten in the moonlight... What if I was as handsome as the lion... Roaring with pride and pure courage What if we were glistening in the moonlight? Would it bring health to our bones tonight? Would it make our heart rejoice and overflow with delight? Would we be able to survive this horrifying plight? Would we be shimmering like a candlelight? We're glistening in the moonlight... (6) Ohh...yeah...ooh yeah...ooh yeahh... We reach to the stars and hope we can trace a shooting star I feel the coolness run down my fingers... We're glistening in the moonlight You're the dandelions in the fields You're the gorgeous view that I marvel at everyday When you kiss me, I live my dreams We glisten in the moonlight In a quick moment, I sense a feeling of endless renewal I roam inside of your illuminating maze Glow on... sunshine... Glow on...sunshine... Glisten in the moonlight... Listen to the truth and rub it in You are ravishing like the sunset But you're ascending while I'm descending I feel extremely guilty I wish I could glisten with you in the moonlight You're glistening in the moonlight (6) Ohhh yeahh... oohhh yeahh... ohh yeahh You're glistening in the moonlight (4) We go our own way I wish we can glisten like the moon Glisten like the sun There's a dream concealed inside of me... Reveal your light and pour it upon me You glisten in the appealing moonlight While I'm subsiding... you're fulfilling your dreams Of gliding across the horizon You're independence... keeps on scorching with satisfaction While I'm below you... Your emerald green eyes Stared me down like a hawk... Your emerald eyes Gaze down at me genuinely... I wish we could flee together in reality... That could be a possibility To glisten in the moonlight in glee We were glistening in the moonlight (3) But that was only a dream... I'll pray that it turns into a reality We were glistening in the moonlight Now, I've misplaced my delight... Will I ever experience such a brilliant night?
It is not hard to find our differences In looks or thoughts or likes The human snowflake is so unique Acceptance should be our plight Why can't we all just get along Stop telling the other guy how he's living wrong Love is the building block that will make us strong Why can't we all just get along We can rise above putting others down We can live in harmony We can better this world that we all share By accepting the you's and me's Why can't we all just get along Stop telling the other guy how he's living wrong Love is the building block that will make us strong Why can't we all just get along God created a garden with variety There is plenty of space for all Instead of practicing negativity We should let his flowers grow big and tall Why can't we all just get along Stop telling the other guy how he's living wrong Love is the building block that will make us strong Why can't we all just get along
I once was like a catipiller young,naive,and new Always living from my heart not knowing what else to do.Easy to take advantage of, that is just the case, people would walk over me like I was their dirty used up suitcase. Now I feel a newness coming, like a light shining from the sky, colors fill my world and I know I am blooming into a butterfly. Purple,Pink, Blue and Green I can feel them flowing through. Colors of the rainbow raising me into full bloom. Wise and strong I am becoming My faith leads me where I need to go giving me insight and wiseness for only me to know. I have not done this on my own you see I have been guided by God and Angels on this Earth. Wise words the wisdom at it's best comes from a wise lady who seems to know me best. Lucky, I am to have her in my life, she always shoots it straight and tells me like it is, knowing her words touch my heart and gives me tons of faith.. I feel like flying through the sky or climbing a tree way up high. I feel like observing the world just like a brand new butterfly so as I Bloom I become Anew something unlike the past Smart and wise beautiful on the inside and outside a touch of color here a touch of color there makes me glow and become a beautiful blooming butterfly...

**A WINNING POEM** That night, my heart pleaded i should Wait over and pass the night at grand pa's Old inn. Enormous was my concern to reach home And see Constance La France.... the rambling poet. About "create your own form, may be?" I embraced the night and darkness mingled With my eyes; Yonder are night workers, Here and there they wander, Seaching for who to plunder, Oh! what a mighty wonder. Look at that supermarket, And a man with a mask, Gun and matchet, He most be a burglar, Oh! i must be undercover, Or else i step into danger, For the night is in dark anger. "Ahh! ahhh!! ahhhh!!!" the cry of a victim, Something must have wrought a cry, Who will be the rescue? For me, this night walk must linger. Look at the police, having me as an Accomplice, they need my identity and money, Yet yonder is the victim crying.... Look over there! drug users Assembling in dark corners, Swaying like feathers, In the midst of their daily rituals, That is never beneficial, Oh! blind earth leading to an open death. Group upon groups, stationed in their post, Looking so malicious, looking so vicious, Brandishing weapons, ready for the slaughter, Gun shoots clatter as a group fight starter. Charles melody has seen wonder And endless palaver. Knives mingled with flesh, blood and bone, Men eager and bold, Heads bounce like ball, Suddenly, calmness...... Gba! gba!! gba!!! another trigger's verdict? Lord when will these pass over? For i am likening to salt in water, Never to calm and ponder, The night walk seemed not to be over. For the night is in dark anger.... BY CHARLES MELODY (Lightening Ink) **14TH PLACE IN CONSTANCE LA FRANCE CONTEST, WITH THE THEME; "DEEP, DARK AND DRAMATIC". =============================== The form of this poem is called,"stream of consciousness." i formed it so because the thought kept coming like a stream or river of consciousness in my mind, i was conscious of the dangers i knew, especially in my Little African village and the war that covered it. For "Constance La France, the Rambling poet's contest.
We want to think everything's all right We want to say that everything's fine. We all need to try to see through the night We all have to search for the Grand Design. Well it's not always as clear as we'd like it Doesn't always follow the plan. Sometimes the match doesn't catch when we strike it And sometimes there's nobody there in command. You know how it helps to cling to delusion You know how that breaks the fall. But if we persist with attractive illusion We might not escape this at all. Don't stop now - Don't stop believing in us Don't stop now - We can't afford to wait Don't stop now - Don't stop believing in us Don't stop now - Or it may be too late. We want everything to stop being so crazy To just settle down and be cool. Are we all just too tired, or maybe too lazy, Is the Human Race gonna play the Fool? It's not gonna get up and go away We can't just pretend it's not there. These troubles we've made have come home to stay But we can still win if we care. Don't stop now - Don't stop believing in us Don't stop now - We can't afford to wait Don't stop now - Don't stop believing in us Don't stop now - Or it may be too late. Everyone wants a little more money Everyone wants a little more time. Everyone's got some kind of crutch to lean on, Everyone needs their reason to rhyme. Everyone wants to live forever Everyone watches their dreams go by. Everyone wants to probe the deep end Everyone want to touch the sky. Everyone ought to read the writing Written high upon the wall. Everyone ought to stop all the fighting Or grit their teeth before the fall. Don't stop now - Don't stop believing in us Don't stop now - We can't afford to wait Don't stop now - Don't stop believing in us Don't stop now - Or it may be too late.
patriotic bliss-- when all Americans know national anthem
I came into your lives a lost and lonely child, Full of anger and resentment, Overwhelmed with fear and confusion. Yet you took me into your home, your lives, and your hearts. From the very beginning you tried to make me feel welcome and wanted. Though I fought you each step of the way you never gave up on me. Instead you patiently and lovingly took me under your wings, protecting, guiding and shaping me. Showing me love and understanding. Giving freely and openly the praise and affection I so desperately needed. All the while expecting nothing in return. As days turned into years you were still there Making me feel safe and secure, treating me with respect and fairness, pushing me to be the best I could be. And still, there I was fighting you. Oh, the pain and heartaches you endured at my hands. Yet there you stood, firm and unwavering. Never walking away, never giving up. Always loving me no matter what the cost. All these years later as I look at my own children I realize just what you saw and still see when you look at me. Your Daughter! I love you.
Our path in life will turn and twist, Leaving destination at times unclear. From the iniquitous we must resist, And for God demonstrate our fear. But at path's end there awaits a prize, For those whom God judges steadfast. A crown of gold is waiting our demise, But once a tree is fallen destiny is cast.* I know most won't follow advice I give, Attempting to solve conundrums alone. By accepting Jesus whilst you still live, He grants pardon for bad seed sown.
It's hard to say goodbye It's really tough to let go You don't think I can There's something you should know I already have You think that I can't stand Without you by my side If your pride didn't blind You'd see I didn't hide Your beauty's growing thin Tired of your same show Think I'd never walk away There's something you should know I already have I'm ready to start again Going to give life a fresh go To mend a broken heart There's something you should know I already have I already have I already have *Inspired by Leona Lewis' "Better In Time" Contest: Kelly's "I Love Rock N' Roll" Date: 9-10-14
I can't tell you how much your friendship means How dear you are to me Please always feel free to ask When you need help to set you free I can't think what I would do If you were not a part of my life I have so much respect for all that you do I 'd like to think you'd call me if you were in strife. My dear friend no matter where you go whatever you do with your life, Remember I'm the one whose here for you A friend you can trust and on who you can rely. You gave me hope and inspiration You saw me through hardship and pain You gave the things that I needed most With you in my life I have so much to gain.. I can't stop thinking about you each day Or about the help you have given to me Our friendship is something I'll always hold dear It is made of our spirits, that are wild and free Thank you for all the memories we've made Along life's pathways that we together went along We sang and we laughed on this journey of friends Our friendship is special it will always live on.
Beauty of nature Why condense it down to God? Isn't life enough?
I am the face of misery My life, a dissonance of autumn and spring, The years are written in the same Lugubrious, nostalgic grey How can it be the author to blame? I cannot scream this all away… Burn nor Bleed this all away… To Death I am Ordained Lacuna ever growing With Velvet sheets of life flowing Aeons apart of my "royalty" Under the mask the cannot see... Can you dispel this tragedy: Antigone - Epiphany failing If it must be… Then just kill me, (Antigone) sing me out of reality; I wear this dissonant crown of shame (Antigone) Of a kingdom's disdain I hate to be this way... normalcy's bane (Antigone) Here comes the edict, to blame The sordid child of Thebes, This is me, Antigone No words of hope No words of hate Do I have Lenore to send to me: The sordid child of Thebes Caught In the longest nightmare life - the slowest way to die I know this is my life But I'm not under control under the mask the will see Just Another Human If it must be… Then just kill me, (Antigone) sing me out of reality; I wear this dissonant crown of shame (Antigone) Of a kingdom's disdain I hate to be this way... normalcy's bane (Antigone) Here comes the edict, to blame The sordid child of Thebes, This is me, Antigone If it must be… Then just kill me, (Antigone) sing me out of reality; I wear this dissonant crown of shame (Antigone) Of a kingdom's disdain I hate to be this way... normalcy's bane (Antigone) Here comes the edict, to blame The sordid child of Thebes, This is me, Antigone Can you dispel my life; this tragedy? Can you control the storm in my mind? I'm asking you: can you rid me Of The Curse of Antigone?
Coming from where I'm from By Nate Spears Published 2013 in "Death OF A Rose" By Nate Spears Coming from where I'm from Every day is a battle to survive War is in session Right before our eyes Each day we battle lessons Just to be in the running for blessings Coming from where I'm from We move rapidly on missions The dead is alive with every walk of the lifeless Limited income withholds wealth The living is near death Spirits are stripped of guilt Coming from where I'm from Deprived wealth Creates bad health In occurrence to this Good feelings are killed The worst gets exposed As times get worse Financial situations become a disaster No man on earth can rehearse The world is broken Hunger brings harm Coming from where I'm from Dictatorship is not fond The environment brings the need to shoot These activities loosens the roots We're grounded by values as thin as a pin We lose ourselves at falling rates like bowling pens No free passes Prisons filled in masses Separated by classes Coming from where I'm from.
I will be a sudden silence to calm your burning soul, and quiet the words. Lay down and let thoughts sleep, escape to a place that accepts you with flaws, Stand with me there, and be one with me. Awake from sadness and shout! Laugh without control! cry for joy! I will hold you and never let you go. ©2013 Christine Phillips
The ghosts come stern to foreshadow their routes westward to Atlantic, nautilus trust to sea mantic, - and ocean deities endow. Their ancestors were apt sailors, to serve an equal cause for years, on compassed routes - funeral tears, sabled wives shed to sea bailors. The blue engagement is a spell, that haunts the island men since birth; whom sea engulfs is an owing dearth, to morose depths of mournful well. The sailors stand on the stern deck, as dusk turns colors to dark gray, with a harmonica's sad play, the long tear shadows and stares beck. © G.V. 07-18-2012, All Rights Reserved

"This poem is not about what is written, But what is not written…" ~Took for granted, I am torn Two worlds, past and future My present presence at a halt As I try to find my significance, The nature of the beast, that is, …me… ~Like wandering butterflies I drift… Peacefully, graciously, but lonely With only the wind and trees as my company For no one could understand… My emotion~ They shan't be written for you to read For I, myself do not know ~the words to write. Thus, learn to read between the lines, That is my best advice~ ~ I could let go, and sail The breeze could carry me away Rely on the wind beneath my wings I pray… Keep me light, and let me soar. Read between the lines… …Unwritten words forever pour~ @2011/06/30-2011/07/01 ~*Wandering*Butterfly*~ Miranda Lambert 2ND PLACE IN Constance La France ~ The Unwritten
I have a peaceful easy feeling As I sit and write this poem Comprising 5 old songs Which remind me of my home They show me the importance They teach me with such grace To get up every morning With a smile on your face My youth was filled with ballads Verses I could trust And we all know what memories bring... They bring dia-monds and rust Songs taught me that my friends were The wind beneath my wings To treasure and embrace them To value what life brings There's a crack in everything That's how the light gets in For me, 'bout sums it up The hope one feels within Sometimes a simple sound Or smell can be so strong It carries me back light years To one specific song And in that song I bask I know what each line means Transcended to the past Dressed in my tie-dyed jeans.

This is dedicated to the uneducated who, segregate from the greats the hate gave integration to, though the paved the way for you, you just simulate the flu, infected with cold hearts like inflammation made it through, To... You... So take a second to converse, listen to me, then speak, just make sure you think first, about the thirst, of the dream, had by Dr. King, which would hurt beyond the seams, if he witnessed everything, The Scenes! How we're treating one another, Educated versus thugs, like we are not brothers, What's the point to jump from slavery to having white lovers, if less racism means the blacks hate each other? My Brothers! I have no intent on hating you, I just hope you make it through. So this is Dedicated To You...
[The Puppeteer] The storm I see you in Caught in the race of Caïn Held by the arms you cannot see--the conducter of Ennui -No stronger than the void you hold within- It began with a hope, an obsession Casted into, slavery of repugnant possessions Granted by, the Avaricious Lords, the ones we serve for -They Told Us to pray, hope, away from despair, the despair caused by their immaculate Hands Malice, envy, greed, was granted to me, The Feudal Dream, we want to be Them, just like him -just how he solaces us, ambivalent hope, engendering knives to my throat [The Fall] In this Valley of morning and weeping Love lies bleeding, in desperate fear With their talons, the hunt to rip out thy heart As each velvet petal falls apart Her body chained in their bile and lies, covered with their red-spy -sent just to check if our souls are in line, do not defy Her blood velvet and pure, drips away with innocence of the amber guardian The soil of plagues, beggars, and graves Is know her home, the coven of solace Though the seed has died--resurrection Is near passing through death's fear One stronger than you--and thy funeral skies She is alive--anew But the vapors still remain The Apocalypse is here, do we fear? Just for the death of our sins Elysia never Seemed so far away [Our Damnation] Solitary ruins, Fulfill their visions We strayed far from the depths within We all lingered to his solace--lies -you make the sign everyday, but lack toknow the name We are just the toys, he pulls all of the strings We are nothing in this burning world of Decadence, and Failed Semblance [Draconian] Draconian--Reach for the shadows within Draconian--Break from the Fallen's son Draconian--Their empirical lies, only die Draconian--Reach the shadows within

Amid the shades of night, in Spring a wraith descends, sole to release a dancer's form - raindrop cerise - one faint caress of fingertips. Amid the shadows she appears to walk in blooms and promise feasts because night's solitude emits, dark's unsubstantial of tears. How soft the numbness of hung air defines night's secrets and evokes prodigious our dreams and scopes to gallivant from twinge to stare? The dreams of night advance to flare and they become lone blinks and scars shine like the mettlesome of stars are steady, sad and foursquare. This abstract process of cognition trajectories of souls brings close, the light's evanescence depose, our verse in verbatim rendition. With moistened lips in rain's tall drapes she comes; the feasts acquire glory we dance on a remote quarry, where night adorns the marble scapes. © G.

In the exact moment that I am right now I stand in a sea of vulnerability; susceptible to the effects of causes around me and since I am fully aware, I own my surroundings I am one with sounds and vibrations resonating from the earth; I am that pulse of the drum beat thats been thrashing inside me since birth Right now, I am exactly as I am deeply flawed and misjudged used, victimized and persecuted Right now I am you in the absolute Right now, I am exactly as I am balanced, whole and complete attracting abundance and certainty Right now I am peace - still you Right now, I am exactly as I am You
Little do they know this candle is a torch. That this torch a conflagration. Little do they know these rocks are a mountain. That these mountains are earth. Little do they know we still see in the dark. That the darkness births sunlight. Little do they know these trumpets will call. That the call will emancipate. Raise your head from its hunched state knowing that they will one day see A truest composition of you and me.
Drowning in the pool of anguish…oh…oh… I'm venturing into the forest…and I want to hear the words seep out Release these aching sorrows…I worry my soul's drying out… like a drought… Drain out the fluids from my heart It's gouging me…bruising me to the core… **chorus** Embrace the light…embrace the midnight sky… You fall in my arms – you die so warm Shed me more sun to lift up my spirits From the…underground…and release me – I'm breathless I'm drowning in doubt…ooh… oh… Remember me…I'm falling…into my swirling fate…hanging on the roots Strangling my heart…distorting in my veins… I'm bleeding so softly – cut out the wood… Splintering me…I'm shattering… and I'm falling in the abyss Bring me more radiance from my candle light Warp me up in bliss…don't let the midnight sky…don't take away my delight From the…ocean…and save me—save me…oh… oh… I'm failing *chorus* I'm drowning in regret…ooh..oh… Hit the bull's eye in my heart…embrace the light And don't leave me hanging in the abyss…hand me a kite! Save me before I fall apart…shut out the night And don't let the dusk escape us… I must confess… I must confess… I hate to see you abandon the light… But I'm not the one to save you from the night Ooh…ohh… *Chorus* Splintering lies fill your heart I want to kiss it goodbye… But you've mastered it like a piece of art I want to kiss the abyss and die… Dry… I wanna touch the sky with my whole soul But I'm failing and the end of time has taken its toll Tainted sorrow…swims around me…I dwell where the waters depart But the anguish still swarms in my heart… I'm failing…my heart stops beating And my desires are fleeting From my grasp And the monsters laugh at me…as I fall… *chorus* Embrace the midnight sky…catch me…catch me… As I fall in death's arms…I die so cold And your heart is made of gold Untangle the darkness & take away the nightmares Answer our prayers & block out the night Erase the heartaches & wipe away our tears Unravel Your words of life & delight
It matters not the life road traveled, For past is part of our three act play. Each segment became a stepping stone, Identifying a spot where we stand today. But each is special in someone's eyes, Though in thought we may be unaware. And whatever thing a past may hold, Won't motivate this person to not care. For within each life is faced a decision, Of two paths, from which we'll choose; One path leads to a heavenly gain, The contrary, our soul to Hell, we'll lose. This pathway will not forever be easy, But we must journey one, just the same. If at the end our foundations solid, It's because of Grace and Jesus name. We worry too much about what others might think, instead of what God already knows.

Ridiculous. Never have you met a brother to ever have explosiveness. Like a pyrotechnic you know that I will stay blowin' this. Beat up till' I wake the streets up. Because Gary, Indiana needs a spiritual re-up. My city is sobbing and it's looking for some perfection. because it's spirit has left it's body. Call it astral projection. This is how Gary raps. The best thing since Mike Jack. And it can't get no better than that. And so begins my city's rebirth. The Midwest the quickest rappers ever seen on this green earth. Too rappers try to race us, they need to reverse. Because too many lyrics coming at you upon this mean verse. The G is the city that not a single soul has tested. If they try us then they will see that we can never be bested. So many people hurt. Twice as many arrested. Our natives don't really care. they're born and raised to be reckless. The rip and the wreckage that you're seeing on every block. And the cops acting hot when they try to run in your spot. Addicts on the corner are always looking for rocks. And these prostitutes are sexing and sucking on every cock. So many have tried but have never made it to fame. Because they're looking at Gary like a sack of some sour lames. So riches is something that we really couldn't attain. That is until today, because I'm on a whole nother plain. To be glyph here are stories that go with bringing Gary back to it's former glory. If you're squeamish then cut it off. To be honest this is gory. How I'm gonna chop this beat and cook it like tenderloin. Maybe a ghost town but will never diminish. We're bucked up now. It's a fight to the finish. And that's for anybody trying to snuff my city's rebirth. Off the dome sophistication. No, my lines aren't rehearsed. It's Intel.
When the farmer Dropped a seed Into the furrow And covered with earth How does the seed Know which way to go It's a miracle It's a miracle Instilled from above A miracle A miracle When love grows An abiding love That lasts a lifetime It's a miracle It's a miracle Instilled from above A miracle A miracle When love's seed grew From a drop within Lifted 'pon wings 'Til this journey's end 'Twas a miracle Instilled from above A miracle A miracle Sponsor: Craig Cornish Contest: More Song Lyrics Written: August 28, 2014
The Undisputed I usually prevail when mostly other have doubts, as my hostel rival friends taunt, boo and shout, when they know my mind is focus on that title bout. I took the stubborn champ to the limit with a reserve of deadly impact of fresh crushing blows therefore had the ruthless undefeated champ dazed, shocked, and lay resting looking at my dancing toes as I exit to go ending the big show. 2/15/11 by Keith K.

in my foolish quest for scrambled words, your inspiration becomes a heady sensation carrying me gently from the troubled traffic of my desecrated hours, as if i were entering under the skins of our candle lights: bringing me to embers of moments terribly free, like you.. and there, we become weightless on our open map---the meridians and continents passing through the mists of time and space, oh how my lips and this my striped soul adore you: wandering effortlessly on the terraces of our own love, war and peace. ~ often, at daytime, at night call when stars seem to cover their cherubic faces and i feel the throb of my faltering heart, your company i embrace, telling me how to live...as our sheets grasp in surrender; my tender moans start to bleed... then i become one with your skin, bones, and hands: through sips of wine and tea, i have to say today and after: ~" Here I love you and the horizon hides you in vain. I love you still among these cold things…" ~ i feel i am everywhere; i think of how many i can be with our candles and songs. ........ *excepts from Pablo Neruda's " Here I Love You" * please allow use of small caps ........ .. .........

The Gift of Sound. In our little house stands an upright piano Tuned by a blind man blessed by the gift of sound. My son sat one day playing a masterpiece Wrote long ago by a man who couldn't hear. Listening to the music it took my mind away to Afar magical places no luggage and no cases. My mind kept jumping between different scenes Fields of colored flowers the loveliest it can be. Shadows of far mountains colors in different hues A pied piper sat under a tree playing his favorite tune. Sheep gathered together chased by a cleverly dog Taught by nature no cane and no flog. Oh… the gift of sound.
I close my weary eyes Holding onto the hope Of not having to cope Not a mintue longer Without you by my side Not expierencing The warm look in your eyes The tingling rush of your finger tips That would grip my hair tight To stop you from slipping into the night Biting your bottom lip As a pinch to yourself To see if it was real The dream of love we felt And now that you are gone I only wish to die Your image fades from my mind Sometimes I see it clear, The sun is skillfully stroking it set in the sky As my feet float down the road across the tuscan country side I ever so gently sense the wildy grown wheat Tickling these troubled lines engraved in the palm of my hand I playfully pick one out of the land and pluck the grains I look up and in the distance is where she waits But there she remains peacefully strolling through the calming field In a white cotton dress that tails off in the wind and wearing a small confident smile that makes my yearning heart yield Whispering in my ear that soon I will make it home But my Life's journey must continue down this God paved road I awake with the longing of her, But with so much to do I need God's strength for one more day to get through
CONFIDENCE The world is full of people trying to stand out. But they don't realize that they already do. They try so hard to figure what life's all about. With all their piercings, Crazy hair, and fresh tattoos. They miss out because of the worry they feel. Will they approve of the way I dress, think, or act? In the spotlight a few moments they might steal. But some of the stupid things they do can't be taken back. I have a secret that only the few wise ones know. Love who you are and forget what they think. And all the good things in life will soon follow. And you shall rise above all as the critics sink. So meet the world with you head held high. Let them see the beauty that is in you. Let them see your happiness and joy inside. And know that nobody needs to love you more than you do.
The River. The river gently flowing in the moonlight The stars like diamonds, gazing from above And life it seemed so vast All present and all past And all existence glowed with mystic love. I felt those velvet raindrops as they touched me. Caressing my soft skin to make it glow. Sweet mystery astounds Such beauty all around And all that ever was it seemed to flow. I searched so deep within to find the answers As tears they softly flowed from happy eyes. That peace it was so deep And life felt so complete And all around the rain fell from the skies. And then it came, I felt that truth within me That I was nothing, yet so very much. And the truth within my soul It made me feel so whole As love looked down and thrilled me with it's touch.
Tell me, tell me is it true that a song lives deep within you In your heart, your soul screaming to come out Banging on the door, let me in, let me learn, let me love the one who created all I want to learn about my God about his love for you his love for me about his mercy and grace I want to see his face on the day of days oh, I know that it is true I know there's a song bagging to be free living within me. I want to sing his praises I want to sing his name so all may know Jesus. God of Gods, King of Kings shine your love, your light, your grace upon me. God the father, you sent only son to help us find way back to your loving grace How beautiful your way, guiding us taday Loving us the the way you do Oh, how I long to know you, to see your holy face, your love and grace for the children you create how merciful your ways Tell me, tell me is it true that a song lives deep within you In your heart, your soul screaming to come out Banging on the door, let me in, let me learn, let me love the one who created all
I locked up you in the castle of my heart, Thought no one know about you. I adored you and loved by heart, Because you were just dreams dew. You suffered, You cried, "No!" you said: "Let them know Show them how, How am I!" As I tired of living in a suffer, Opened heart to my friend As you offer Wide world was informed by my secret.
One fine day, I planned a visit to zoo Alone landed amidst the fauna left so few Treaded merrily on greenery, singing my heart out Whilst a lion's scary roar made me shout 'Ah! Another visitor', said the lion annoyingly 'Why should we entertain you?' said he fumingly 'What's the point in wasting your energy and mine? Making us do the funny acts, do they seem so divine?' Hearing those words I dared Reduced the distance, still scared Said I, 'Stop fuming King of Jungle, watch out for your age, Hadn't I come to visit you, wouldn't you be bored in your cage?' 'The answer dwells in your question, silly girl You humans have no heart of pearls, The so-called king of jungle imprisoned in cage Heartthrob of millions I was, at my early age' 'To meet my family, hope it doesn't get too late I need to eagerly meet 'em all, my cubs, my mate I still feel them, they are waiting for me Oh girl! Be kind enough to set me free.' I couldn't have done that with all my might Turned my way, delighted by a peacock's sight The multihued beauty was sheltered in a metallic cage Awe! Gloomy this beauty looked, in distress and rage 'What is wrong? Do you want to fly?' It turned around and looked straight at the sky 'Show me those vibrant feathers, the fan-like crest Guests would adore seeing you dance at your best' 'I dance just for my love, my love for rain, Cool breeze no more likes crossing my lane Why do I open my feathers without my mate's presence? Just to amuse you, I shall do; confined in this fence' Dumbstruck, I decided to turn my way Walked ahead in quest of animals happy and gay There it was! A crazy monkey, flirting and making its choice Mimicking others and playing around, hear its evil noise Bouncing, bouncing and dancing, dancing It ruled as if dungeon's dominant king Wow! You look so happy; what's the reason? 'Girl! No more fun for you, 'coz free I'll be from this prison'. Two giant men came forward and opened the door Good Lord! It'll be free, unkind humans is just animal's lore! Monkey screeched, 'Meet me soon in the nearby forest Where I meet my pals, play, eat, have fun and rest' Happy to see the monkey's joy, I walked ahead Across the bushes, saw a van, a huge van in red Giant men carried animals and dumped in the van Shocked I was to see the sight and reckoned their plan Why was my monkey friend inside, for what purpose? It was clear as I read the van's name, 'The Great Royal Circus!'
Throughout my day one watches Over every move I make. That same someone is guiding Each earthly step I take. Once, through faith, I asked this man To clean and make me whole. I now know this man to be The savior of my soul. This man whose name is Jesus Christ Is where my future lies. I've put my faith and trust in him There has been no disguise. From within his written word I find He'd have me either hot or cold He desires no in between Nor places difference in young and old. So each day I must do those things That to me, God has made known. For in His judgement I'll someday stand And reap just what I've sown.
I tried to write about love but I haven't felt it. I tried to write about the sea but I've never seen it. Then I tried to write about the air, but I have never breathed it. I tried to write about magic but I never believed it. I couldn't write about god, all I have ever done is sinned. And when I tried to write about life I found, I have never really lived.
Morning comes The sun rises from the night And the daybreak brings Your beauty into light Dark shadows gone Even those things gray In the yellow bright The fog has burned away And what I see is love The many sacrifices made And now this heat so sweat It's not about to make us fade In the blinding winter snow Hope never ceased to see me You said here comes the sun You fought on to make us free 2-14-14 Sponsored by: Francine Roberts
Jesus is faithful to His own, He sits upon the Throne. It is to Him that we belong. Keep your eyes focused on Jesus. Only He can help us, He is the one who can save us. Jesus will not leave you alone, Shine Your, light through the Word. So, agape love might be shown. It is Jesus that protects us, Our rock and foundation. There's no one like Jesus. Fear not for the I Am with you. Fear not be kind and true. Fear not and let your light so, shine. A witness to mankind. These are lyrics to a song placed on U-Tube but somewhat refraised...

My New Way – By Shawn Chadwick Sackman One day I woke up Feeling sorry for myself Not what I wanted for me And then it hit me Realized I was free to be anything Had big dreams before, but where had they gone From that day on I said come-on My true test Never lose this feeling, feel so blessed (Pre Chorus) Heard the choir singing Oh man I am reeling Looked up winked, said thanks for the healing (Chorus) It's my new way It's the same me, just a new way of trying I'm not letting a thing stop me From believing, not deceiving I know the way, know how it should be, there just for me Trick is don't lose faith in believing, in the gift of receiving It's clear now that it's a really new day For my new way I now want to try, to see what's next Got list of things to do, from my new view I'm so okay, think I'll stay (Pre Chorus) Heard the choir singing Has me really reeling No no's, just say yes and go It's a great feeling, want everyone to know (Chorus) It's my new way It's the same me, just a new way of trying I'm not letting a thing stop me From believing, not deceiving I know the way, know how it should be, there just for me Trick is don't lose faith in believing, in the gift of receiving It's clear now that it's a really new day 'Cause I know this feeling helps me Help others who can't see Not like before, no gray days for me Oh what a day My new way Oh, I know it's not just my new way My new way
Your love pricks me like a rose each thorn grows but no one knows Your so full of it as it shows so carry on now go on, go. I'm fed up with the phony and i'm through with the tears, you couldn't pay me all your money to make up for those years. Someone help me I feel faint how could I think he was such a saint and worst of all I let me fall into a spiral down below. A magic called love carried by the dove of someone I use to know.
This morning bells toll a trumpet sounds but refuses to blare it just doesn't know how to harm what it takes to infect the living trees earth and sound survive sadness out last the past bond brothers and sisters of sky air mud and water as it loses to a force some days... this morning it wins because the vibration knows god and is ONE and though human imperfections sit in the shadows of it's path perfections will and forever will prevail people so arrogant we choose to destroy but how can we concentrate on methods of malcontent when god sits at our breakfast table? urging as father urges child "get up!" "move on!" "stand on two feet!" "breath child!" he tolls the bell as we lay on deaf ears he loosens ties with anger as the path warns and wears thrusting driving this cosmic ship of no loses only tiny arrogant setbacks and he smiles for he knows what we yet have to find... and all is well.
A skyscape floats with light's threads Suspended in an unknown hemisphere Of eternity, a pure innocence Where billion meteors , stars evanesce. I feel Its rivers and heat blending as one drift, numberless upon the ladder of creation... Like a pilgrim of life breaking a thrilled stun, As the grandeur of matter and blue fire Ignites dawn's birthing , twilight's falling; That each motion of a planet knows its pull Before whirling amidst heaven's ray . I pause... The god-child in me sees all brethren worlds Allowing a force to bind with a holy order That assigns each ringlet its fluid continuity. I pause...moved by a galaxy that circles From a flight roaming to greet my breath Through seasons' journey , knowing my soul finds its comfort beyond earth's frontiers.

My Wishes are Simple My wishes are simple, my desires few, to gaze upon an ocean, and marvel at a solitary drop of dew. My wishes are simple, my dreams not too grand, to feel the waves teasing my tired feet, with no footprints left in the cool, wet sand. My wishes are simple, my thoughts serenely gentle, calm, my heart resting beneath a swaying palm, healing my being, caressed by nature's soothing balm.
Lord, a storm is raging- in our mist Our nation suffers- with its twists I know you see these roots of evil, don't you? We spend our time- getting ahead We've lost sight- of the blood you shed With hope we raise our voice with Hallelujahs Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah There are children hungry- in our streets The population- ignores the weak But you send your angels in their mist, now don't you There are murders committed -in our land It's time for us- to take a stand Please hear our pleas in these broken Hallelujahs Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Reparations needed- for wicked deeds Twas with sinful lust- evil bare its seeds We need cleansing from immorality, please won't you? As we bend our knees- and bow our heads We lay our plight- at your feet instead Our prayers not lost within our Hallelujahs Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah The signs that you -are coming soon Have been preached for years- with sudden doom But with loving hands you'll save your children, won't you. You'll pluck your flowers from the weeds Salvation winning over sinful deeds With our faith we raise our voices in Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah With humbled heart and meek attitude We come to you, with our gratitude And raise our voice with joyful Hallelujahs Salvation bought with your blood depleted Victory was won with death defeated Your brides await the bridegroom, Hallelujah!! Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Written for a Members Contest to write a lyric to the tune of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" I decided to keep the Hallelujah's in place because I think we need to hear more "Hallelujahs" in our world today. *No infringement intended on Leonard Cohen's original verses of "Hallelujah".
It is no wonder why Oh happy day in July When I sing of peace and love and joy I of't recall the birth of Mary's baby boy Born that first Christmas day when angels did proclaim "O Earth, to you, a savior born; Jesus is His name." Oh joyous day in July When yards turn brown and get too dry I read again the story Bibles tell Not like the Christmas advertisers sell I know a time angels to shepherds came And sang, "…a savior born; Jesus is His name." Oh festive July day When I take time to pray I am glad the Christmas spirit still remains As I lift my voice with sweet angelic refrains Christmas came years ago from heaven above God's gift given; precious Jesus, wrapped with love.
A zealous mind with a throbbing heart, A focused mind with undying dreams, They think they know best, but who knows best? I just don't jolt it, I think it, like it and Dream it, and then jolt it down. I splash ink upon cotton white paper, I am an engine kept in low gear, They think they know who knows best? My struggle is against society not against my Individualistic nature. I have this savage selfhood Fierce esteem. That's me, they think they know but Who knows best? I work and spread like a virus, then determination is my Prescription, achieving it is the recovery, I never fail to win, I win to fail failures I spit venom upon a predator, hindering my actions I create a fuss to finish their doubts They think they know, who knows best? I do.
Where am I? Why is it dark? This isn't what I had in mind when I left the park… Why isn't the wind whispering…the songbirds singing? All I remember is a telephone ringing… A scream and a crash and a pain in my side… Is this what happens after one's died? I don't feel like myself, I feel wild and free, Yet I'm cold and alone, 'stead of filled with glee. My whole life I've studied, and pondered, and prayed, Trying to fathom what would happen this day But now that it's here, I'm beginning to fear Maybe the afterlife's not what it appears… It's certainly not what I've been told by my preacher Or my parents or brother or best friend or teacher… Is it a bad thing, or is it good? Maybe it's just not quite understood... While I was on Earth, I just couldn't wait To meet good St. Peter at the heavenly gate And ask him a question or query or two "What was my purpose?" "What good did I do?" "What's it all for?" "How does it all flow?" "Can I have one more body, one more try, one more go?" But where is the angel? Where is the gate? And If this is Hell, then where is Ol' Satan? Am I a lost soul? Am I forgotten? Am I to be left here until I am rotten? Lo and behold! what, now, can this be? Is this a wonderful spiritual epiphany? Is this the magical feeling all souls receive When they leave Earth? Oh! was I that naïve? How could I have not seen the realism? Why was I consumed in man-made idealism? This is more wondrous than all I was taught Oh, all the times I argued and fought With others, 'bout how their views were asinine Now I see, theirs were just as wrong as mine! Little I thought was actually correct! How, why, did I let others petty beliefs infect My untouched, my pure, my virgin mind? I regret all the hours I self-tortured to find That compared to what I see now, I was empty and blind… Wait - - What is this that I see? What is this gateway that is revealed unto me? Now a door is opened to my immortal soul I am expected now to enter my life's final goal… I am scared, intimidated, but still I am glad… For the truth I have just seen is anything but bad. This is the end of my journey, I've nothing to fear, For now I am going Beyond the Frontier.
If I could dream for anything I would dream of Peace, Love and Unity for all Bloods & Crips all gangs, are in need of a change for you represent such ignorance and scrutiny Difference in colors worn Sides in which you were born are truly all that divides when the two opposing sides collide and it makes no sense for we all Bleed Blue turned Red Blood Inside And a future generation is hard to provide when death, is like your shadow creepin' up by your side and drive-by shootings happen each late night, outside where running seems the only option to know for no places to hide no defense for your demise for a difference in colors worn and what side in which you were born is truly all that divides when these two sides collide and it makes no sense to me for we all Bleed Blue turned Red Blood Inside
Society, community, society, community. You can leave now and let me be. I will swim free, free in your sea. Your sea? your sea, polluted now, Oh you will never see.

I can't be lost and can't be found, I'm in the air and in the ground; I'm very loud without a sound. I'm everywhere yet can't be seen, I'm where you're going, and where you've been. I never stop and never start; I am spirit's love, which fills your heart.
Deep in the woods I hear an angel's lyrical call. Tranquil and serene, a majestic summer waterfall. Where the oaks and wildflowers shade the creek, reflections fall to earth from rays of destiny, refreshing my soul and setting my spirit free. I smell the aroma of rain mixed with the paradise breeze. Tranquil and serene, a natural wonder and rainbow of peace. A cascading sparkling jewel, above a wave rippling whirlpool. Upon the wind rides the angel's lyrical call. Tranquil and serene, a majestic summer waterfall.
She appeared one day seeking a chance, This chance rested with me to proffer. I saw potential problems at first glance, Looking past the skills she might offer. But God precluded my wrong intention, Because inside my heart He could see. An imperfection needing His intervention, He used this young woman to chastise me. Within my heart He has ordered her being, With a charge like none previously known. God gave me new spiritual eyes for seeing, Since that day a kindred feeling has grown.
Play The Radio Get Up And Dance All Night Long Music Heals The Soul
I just want one more day with you I'm so sad and depressed Is all I want to do is rest I go to sleep at night But my dreams I just can't fight I think of you lying in that bed And wonder if there is anything I could have said I wish you were still here But I know that you are still near I love you more than you know I just wish you didn't have to go I just want one more day with you And I know thats what you would have wanted too I miss you more and more each day There is so much more we had to say I know I will see you again But my life is just started to begin
HOLD ON In this world today we shall all face Many trials and tribulations, But we must persevere by holding on to faith, And remember….. We are God's creation. He didn't put us here to live in fear, be alone, or in want - We drink of His blood after we break, and eat Host And He said, "I leave you a comforter", Which is the Holy Ghost. Therefore let us all in Him rejoice No matter the perils that will come. For the strong will survive, take heed and abide - In the Word of the Almighty One. And if we stay true to the one and only Savior & Lord Jesus Christ We shall inherit His promises of glorious riches And with Him have everlasting life.
I think I self-sabotage unknowingly because of fear So my message goes unheard because I'm afraid to let the people hear And end up drowning in the poetic blues doubting my ability to write about the truth; I dug deeper and deeper into myself trying to write a poem good enough to be free of judgment Then I stepped out on faith and suddenly I was triumphant and my writing grew and I was loving it I had finally passed the fear of speaking and caring about who the fu*c! was judging it As I wait to be inspired for the next poem, I sit and think alone and drown in my sorrows Listening to jazz, blues and a.m. radio trying to find an excuse not to perform at the SLAM because again I can't think of a damn thing to write….. Drowning in poetic blues Will this be the one that will be thrown away and never be used Or will this be the one that transcends the others and finally prove that poetry is blues and blues is poetry and hip hop and jazz and r&b, Poetry is music and the words dance around in my soul and I am free once they become spoken In the meantime the paper is where the words will rest until the silence is broken Drowning in the sea of proper delivery My voice, my stance, my intensity How will others interpret the words that I've chosen so diligently? I wrap my soul around the possibility that none of the words I choose – will keep me from becoming deluged and trapped by the poetic blues Somehow my heart refuses to accept that I don't deserve to have my words heard and it takes over this whole process No more time for shrinking and feeling less I was born to make my words manifest light I am a gorgeous medium to the truth yeah that's right I was sent here to give you a piece of good news Remember that God is with you when you get The poetic blues

She chose a red scarf. The most red of them all. Of a dark red, a sweet and thick red color, just as wine. She carved from the red scarf from the middle to the size of a Martini glass. Then she carved one more glass, and she kept carving till she fell asleep. Yesterday she saw her Beloved Moth flirting with a Younger Moth, carving together from a sweater while she was getting busy, carving in the shelves. The Unhappy Moth drank lots of wine woolen wine, last night. She drank lots, too much for a Moth. The Unhappy Moth got drunk and fell asleep on the red scarf, unhidden with a heart filled with peace. She was not afraid no more. Now she could be seen easily, laying on the scarf and easily crushed. The Unhappy Moth was not afraid of death no more, at least, now she knew how wonderful the red scarfs are and that they taste like red wine.
I wonder who you are? I wonder who I see? Will you face the truth to be set free? Always worried about others. Focus on you. You choose to run from conviction instead of embracing the truth. What will it take for you to realize there's a better life? Your heart is consumed by all these bitter lies. You've sheltered your emotions. You've raised your guard. Life is so much easier, yet you seem to make it hard. Your stuck in a rut With no way out. False hope you rely on, but still there's constant doubt. You're sinking quicker into a trap that can't be sprung. The only way to escape is to trust in the ONE. You have to live your life And have some faith. For we're not guaranteed another day. But if you should fall. Don't ever fret. You can make a choice that you'll never regret. Serve the Lord with all your heart. Begin a new life with a brand new start. When you face the truth It sets you free
I have wondered long on how it would feel If true love I ever found Would I know in my heart that this is the one To whom my soul would be bound - Is it to you that my soul is bound? How should I respond to the words you speak Can I know whether they are sincere Am I able to tell by the sound of your voice As you whisper in my ear? When you look at me so lovingly With that twinkle in your eye It stirs my heart and lights my soul There are times it makes me cry I am overwhelmed at the depth of your love How tender you are to me And I think to myself - can this really be true Or is it just fantasy? Are my fears misplaced - Do I wonder too much? Am I using my doubts as a crutch? Should I open my mouth and reveal to you Just how deeply my heart has been touched? I'll let fear and doubt go now - and trust in our love For I know I have finally found A treasure of love burning bright within me And to you, my soul will be bound Yes. It's to you my soul is bound!
I'm floatin in a boat, in the middle of the sea, and I've got my trusty fishing rod with me. I'm trolling for love, sweet, soft and demure, so I cast our my line, and my heart is the lure. come on precious mermaid, come hither sweet girl, hop into my boat, and lets give it a whirl, with our wing tips igniting, and our eyes brightly glowing, deep passion pulsating, sweet liquid love flowing. http://lovestruehome.com/
My Hero You would tuck me in at night before you went to work, like your back didn't hurt from your day job that you didn't put first. We didn't have much, but not much was enough because I had my hero's love. Your courage fed me and led me to believe that you where unstoppable. When you have a hero that's a queen like Berlene, your dreams are not impossible. Your guidance is like a lot of food that Bertha would make. Smelling the food I would ask "Did you bake me a cake?" But my hero would prepare all the plates as the elders talked about service today. Just like James & James I want to remain a king. Tally and Mr. Alex will teach you a thousand things. I would write it all down, now I have a pile of dreams. My hero deserves a cape. My hero thinks about the people that they can help today and tomorrow. My hero stands tall but would knell to the man who stands spiritually taller. You taught me that a person that put's God first will remain guarded. I thank Fathers that strive to teach their kids to pray harder and stay stronger so our problems would one day stay flawless. I thank Arthur for being a hero but a man first. Monk was a monk because every decision he made, he planned first. My hero ensured my safety, never told me what I can't be, and still made me feel like a baby. My hero is amazing watch me grow up and be a mirror image. I even searched for my hero secret ingredient; I threw up to many times eating too much spinach. When I was finished, my hero told me to wash the dishes. My hero taught me love, unity, knowledge; and we still have a great friendship. I see my hero from a clear view and will never put my hero in my rear view. Even if I move a thousand miles away, my hero would drive a thousand miles today, to tell me dinner is ready and I need to wash my face. My hero is people I watch today. If you are influential, motivated, educated, and can add the seasoning to a Sunday dinner you are a hero. Either to yourself, your family, or a little boy who was once too short to even look through the peep hole. My hero has no ego, just represents strength, courage, and wisdom like an eagle.
Hurrying and rushing even at eight, usually just to avoid been late. been doing this for a while and I am so accurate, the day I relent, my Boss Anger I activate, the beauty of Nature and sight seeing, no room to accommodate, so focused on my Job and nothing to motivate, through the Trolley Bus I get to the Office straight, none present yet, not even a mate. I'll sit alone for some minutes as I wait, and this I terribly hate, I do not even know for how long I can tolerate. Then one day, I deviated from my usual line. In the Bus, taking my time and making it mine, not giving a damn even if I reached at nine, watching the passers-by smile so fine, up the sky the Birds happily dine, moving in groups like flying swine. Just observing the 3 in 1 street lights was a sign that my Job intoxicated me like wine and all this while with a perfect sight, I've been blind. The Unique Victoria Bar, I've never seen. The "Dark-Ages" band, performing so obscene, showing their 'half-naked' dancing body is what I mean, and the Statue close to the Adidas Shop looks so lean. Aha! The writing on the building is just a signature and the photo on it gave a nice gesture, initially, it puzzled me like a difficult literature, but now the advert seems to be a blend of perfect mixture, as it reads "Gym with us and better your posture" Just understanding the popular Joke about the Pear, It is two round Toys I noticed and a bottom they share. Looking like one big Apple green and clear. Also enjoying the glaring Banks with the colors they wear, not observing all these is worse than to err, and making me feel Nature was never near, this is a burden I am about to bear. How on Earth can I explain this? It's so hurtful not experiencing such a bliss, crying intensely like my niece, is not enough justification for a 5 year-miss.
Beyond Silence… lives the hearts of troubled souls a mythical world of enchanting beauty giving comfort to broken spirits forlorn, Beyond Silence… hope's sparkling joy brings peace to distant contrite minds ever searching, for love's promised happily ever after, Beyond Silence… faith's lasting cherished memories brings remembrance of good times past where timeless wonderment stands still, Beyond Silence… surprise keeps true happiness alive filling souls with friendship's blessing encouraging lifelong bonds freely given, Beyond Silence… playful songs beautiful melodies rescue aspiring dreams beyond success from loneliness to jubilance everlasting, Beyond Silence… divine perfection becomes one in triumphant shouts of worshipful praise lifting countless voices in spiritual refrain, Beyond Silence… life is born anew in fervent prayer cleansing the heart, mind, body, and soul in forgiveness life-changing joy evermore. © Eugene Harvey
When I was young I thought I knew How to talk and speak with you But time has put a wedge between My angel, conscience, inner being. I spoke to you , I spoke to you The one who told me right from wrong, Comforted me all day long. Helped me choose which way to go, When undecided, I didn't know. I spoke to you. I spoke to you. Some call you Gabriel, My Guardian Angel, I did tell, My hopes,my fears,my dreams to be, Untold to others was free with thee. I spoke to you, I spoke to you. Comfortable, believing that you were there, To guide me through every prayer. You had a name I knew it then, I said it time and time again. I spoke to you, I spoke to you I was a child of seven or eight, I knew when called I need not wait For you my angel to appear To clear my conscience and my fear I spoke to you, I spoke to you. The older I grew, less time was spent Talking to you,trying to vent Friends became closer to me, I shared more with them and left you be I spoke to you, I spoke to you. Now as I'm in the prime of life Mother to my son, no longer a wife, I wonder late at night if you Will answer my questions like you used to do I spoke to you, I spoke to you Afraid to test, afraid to fail, Wanting and hoping you did not bail Praying that your still at my side To light, to guard,to rule and guide. I spoke to you, I spoke to you. My faith has told me you are here. Watching me and always near. My pride, my walls have come down Last night,I spoke with no one around. I spoke to you, I spoke to you. My Guardian Angel you were there You listened and helped with every prayer, My hopeless feelings lonely, just me Ended last night when you returned to me I spoke to you, I spoke to you I"ll speak to you, yes speak with you.
God Will By Nate Spears Published 2010 in Inspiration 2 Smile by Nate Spears When the most difficult times arrive God will get you by When your down to you last penny God will stick with you When it seems impossible God want let it stop you Keep strong faith; strong faith will make it hard For any weapon formed against you That weapon shall not commence you Faith in GOD is nice Don't give up Just trust Enclose your palms Spiritual blessing will combust When evil's fired your way God will make your day.
I'm not a hero for saving this game, and turning it around I'm in entrepreneur for creating this game, from underground I put these words together and spit 'em, so while you listen to my flow, realize that none of this is for money, I do it as food for the soul. Understand that these words are nothing, but a few syllables, that are never gonna be read out over a microphone. Unless I, actually make it, so this is make it or break it, shatter it and glue it then do the same as I continue my day shift. Of letting people step over me, and I'm slowly exploding, 'cause these people never sit down they wanna see me create a scene. They wanna see me let go of this grudge, and finally blow up, but why would I give these people anything that they want? They're never gonna repay me, I need somebody to save me, I need a friend that isn't gonna turn around and betray me. So I keep writing, and letting my emotions run out through this pen, cause I'll do anything to keep myself away from giving in.
We were so young and we were so scared We told each other that forever we'd care Things were so simple no need to pretend It was so easy we were the best of friends And then it happened Didn't see it coming I let you down when you needed me I just got scared And in a moment of weakness I thought that I needed I thought that I needed, to be free Be free You were much stronger, stronger than me It's been some time now that I've come to see May take forever to again win your heart I know it's better when we're not apart And then it happened Didn't see it coming I let you down when you needed me I just got scared And in a moment of weakness I thought that I needed Thought that I needed To be free… I pray there's still hope To let our love show Got to make it right.. And make you love me…again And then it happened No longer saddened You said you still wanted me Knew I was lost In a moment of weakness I thought that I needed Yeah, I thought that's what I needed But what I really needed What I really needed What I really needed I could already see, in front of me In front of me
Listen to your heart Do not rely on what the mind concieves Your heart has the keys to Heavens Gates While the mind is too often decieved Listen to your heart. Listen! For it speaks loudly and clear Less your life be "a chasing after the wind" If the voice of your heart is not revered
Children of today, Stay in school That's the number one rule! Obstacles come your way Push them aside And do not stray! Education = success Success= progress So- children of today, Stay in school And do your best Getting an education Is your money nest!
Leaving behind the refined day A silent night, bright moonlight, you're here to stay Disposed from a curse, i give away, set free Darkness in the horizon, i closed my eyes to see Assembling the patterns of the shattered soul Making a pledge with no control All morals have been sold A clear path showing the road Dominated by the scent of black roses and seeds of gold It's devil's road, you've been told.
I am a poet writing of my pain I am a person living a life of shame I am your daughter, hiding my depression I am your sister, striving to make a great impression I am your friend acting like I'm fine I am a dreamer, wishing this life, wasn't mine I am a girl who struggles with suicide I am a teenager, pushing her tears aside Side note: (Writing for other ladies out there, not so much myself, so don't worry about me)
Introduction: Life is a mystery with many ups and downs throughout the journey. The journey filled with thoughts of tranquility and turmoil. But the perfect sensation is the time when you get to feel closer to your Almighty, the one who understands you the best, your closest friend, your hope and light, your solution to every problem, The mystery you came to life to solve and to believe in. Even in the happiest and the saddest moments, He is always there when you need Him. Right now I am, thinking what to write Holding my pen, it's almost midnight, I'm truly out of words, to express my whole life, It's so absurd, cut all pain through a knife And I wish I could feel, Your presence in my soul I know that You know, what I am going through And I'm not sure I believe, unless I really feel But I know when You're not there, so I pray to feel You near Now I can see, what this life is about Now I do know, I'm too lost without, Diamond in the rough, that's what I was But now I'm reborn by the shower of Your bliss I'd die to satisfy, I'd do everything I can, No matter how tough, after all I'm a man I won't fall apart, You're always in my heart I'd swim oceans and more, only to be Your friend This undying grace of Your creation, Time and space, more than perfection You've opened my eyes and showed me the truth You've blessed peace to my soul; I know what's my role I see two key coins, one black and one white And all I have to join, the one with your light Life is as it is, we make it our own Hard or easy, full or alone Everything grows, as they all involve With the rose you put down, to show us what's love I wake up early, to see Your beauty, Throughout the morning sun, I feel complete and done, I drive all the way and see my problems solved, By Your love from above, I stand still so firm Everything I do, everywhere I go, Every moment I breathe, I remind myself of You…my Almighty.
Oh! Humanity, How you've lost your sanity! Did you forget how to grow? Every one of you was planted row by row. Did your heavenly Father not nurture you with love? Did He not make the rains fall from up above? Oh where is your heart? Who gave you your first start? Oh! Humanity, What vanity! Oh! Humanity, What profanity! Daylight hours just wash ashore, With simple lives from once before! Have you forgotten your heavenly Mother? And what about your heavenly Brother? Oh where is your God forsaken mind? What happened to being loving and kind? Oh! Humanity, How you've provoked such a calamity!
the life that you have now is the one you will cry over when you are removed from it it happens that many lives are taken away from the now and when we lived the can't grow fast enough is bicycle hard to catch up to crispy in leaves, and, bare under the bark
The bills, the pain, the drama, the rain The storm grows larger and floods your brain With thoughts that begin to drive you insane Like, if I trust God will it all go away? What am I missing? Empathy? Faith? What will happen if I stay on this pace? Am I one of those people that God can replace? If I don't change now is it hell I face? Could we all be afraid of meeting our fate? All these years trying to find someone to relate.. Is it true you can fall victim of a time and a place? If I pray hard enough can I erase [pause] The anger, the envy, resentment and hate ? or at 25 years old could I be too late? To try and change my life to get a new slate And chills cover my arms and my heart begins to race All of a sudden I can't hear any rain Laughter replaces the fear that remained and God lets us know it will all be ok Forgive those around you and thank God for each day Think with your heart and in Gods you will stay.
Here i am. Here i am lord if you lead me. Here i am lord if you teach me. Here i am lord if you show me the way. Here i am. Take my body to do your will. Take my heart to show others your will. Take my soul to bring happiness to all who need it.

Thank you for the beautiful memory you left on my mind you are not dead but you are not here, to me you are gone, cos i cant feel you the way i used to, everything you used to do are left untouched the space you ocupied is empty, our yesterday is fading away like the rainbow so beautiful but so short, how can i forget the endless yesterday? when you are here with me. in loving memory of my sister (you are not an angel but you did what an angel can do,you fly to heaven.)
I'm my own worst enemy Reality seems to challenge my sanity I'm in a state of constant contradiction I'm Batman, Robin Gotham city. Can't define myself, I'm meaningless by definition. I'm my own worst enemy I have everything I want except what I need I'm not bias; I care about the colour of your creed On Ramadan my sins I feed to fast on Eid I'm a Christian walking with an evil entity. I'm in a state of contradiction Balanced yet unbalanced; I'm the problem and solution I'm a smoker complaining about pollution Can you see the irony in my conclusion? I can concentrate but Can't pocket-pay attention I have eyes to see but The world perceives for me I have a brain to think what my mouth could question but My heart fears to mention. If my actions don't make sense to you count me in Sometimes you have to lose to win A good man's soul can be lost and never found An evil heart can be love-bound. Once you perceive the futility in turning a blind eye Perhaps You could be The change you want to see The change you want to be.
Love's undeniable journey explores all life,touches an amazing earth only you and I can share between time. All ups n' downs come with Fortune n' price, but together We will shatter a mountain of Rock. A place we can go hide closely cuddled cave, against the Closure of your misled arms, Wrapped tightly around a spin Of Saturn's that ring me. As Pluto's fire, breaks guard closer to the sun.....Where GOD GAVE ME YOU] And an UNchained melody to sing.
My fingers brush the strings of an old guitar, hidden away in the closet in my room. A small smile plays my lips and I close my eyes, picturing me playing that guitar. Me singing some song on a bench in the rain. Singing the music that makes my heartbeat pulse through my whole body. I can sing. I know I can, I just need practice. I laugh as I picture the look on my friends faces when I tell them this. I smile and put the guitar away, all the while thinking of how I'd love to learn to play that guitar. To go to a friends party and sing. To make them feel what I do when I ride a high brought on by nothing more or less than music. Breathless, I sit on my bed, my face glowing. I will learn. I will learn to let out the song that makes my heart fill with so much joy I feel like I'm going to explode. Still smiling, I put on my favorite music and let that high take me to a higher place.
If only I could make you see that you mean so much more to me, a priceless gift, wrapped in a smile, the dream that makes my day worthwhile, undoubted proof there is a God, the joy that not all hope is gone. To me you are that piece of mind, that gives the world such sweet reply that although love is sometimes lost, its remnants left will never die- How more could I express my love for words are but the breath in me what more can I, a man still do except to give what's left of me . . . for lips can flatter all too well and sing the praise of many things but you are in a different class to you . . . . . I give my everything! If ever I do fail to prove my strong and constant love for you then never have I lived a day or ever took a breath anew.
I wish I were empty, I could easily be filled with that which is from God. Yet I have been filled with the things of this world. Pour out my Self, fill me with the Spirit, the good gifts from God. I am but a vessel, that which enter me is that of which I am full. I must fill myself with that which is from God, I must surround myself with Him, so He is that of which I am full. Fill me up Lord. For when I am full of You, ....of Your Love, ....of Your Word, that is who I will be ....Your Love. Fill me with Your Love Lord. I will travel through this world, I will not be swayed by worldly temptations. The more of You that lives in me the more of You there is to fill this world.

A Silent Night's Hunt for a Tigress so blunt, Left the Fiend dancing with my Thisbe's Cloack But where was She? Her Drenching blood is all I can see The Night of Sanguine, The Night of Rapture, Tonight was meant to be All Behold This Tragedy ran by Dark Energy, My Lost Lover's Plea A seed of what is to come, In this starcrossed Tragedy, For I can not live without you, My Pyramus, All I need, My reason to Breathe One sight of me bleeding away from reality, started this tragedy and with me It shall Grow The Pain wasn't enough for me, To Live on with me Love without consequence, The Damned Saint, The Angelic Demon The Darkness of the Sea, Carries away with me, In this Starcrossed Tragedy A Star traveling across the moonless Night Sky, In the mid-summer of Verona, Fell from her glorious light, I have lost my guide, My need for Life Every balcony I'll climb for you, Just to Caress you once more But now it is too Late, My Juilet Let the Poison Fill me My Body dyed In silence, Dipped in Paralysis, Forging the Will of God, Feigning the Clutches of Death, My Romeo I prithee to you, See past The Illusion, Caught in the Webs of Love's delusion A Dagger reached my heart once To see you martyr for our love A Dagger reached my heart twice The Pain wasn't enough for me, To Live on with me Love without consequence, The Damned Saint, The Angelic Demon The Darkness of the Sea, Carries away with me, In this Starcrossed Tragedy Once the Morning Retired from her weeping The sun shined into her eyes, then his Lifeless, their dream will live on Every Petal will be Avenged The Pain wasn't enough for me, To Live on with me Love without consequence, The Damned Saint, The Angelic Demon The Darkness of the Sea, Carries away with me, In this Starcrossed Tragedy
Is it worth the salty water Or trudge through wind and rain? You feel as though you've lost it all. What's Left is strife and pain. Is it worth the salty water Or trails it leaves behind? You fret about the life you've lived. Harsh thoughts consume the mind. Is it worth the salty water To just lie still and wait? Your tears may come and they may go. Why hold an empty plate?
Invisible walls with powerful claws, Limited chances, avoiding falls. Browse the news create the blues, Raise the spirits indulge in booze. Disco lights blinding sight, Stars above connect at night. Shallow voices destroy our dreams, Follow the road to make believe. Requesting answers feel the force, Lot of power commanding source, Open your eyes until you see, See the truth set you free.
The bluesman. The bluesman He's up there, he's a star As he clutches in his hands A battered old guitar The bluesman knows his own damned worth He does it in his style And folk they come from miles around And have done for a while The bluesman plucks those strings And wails his old blues harp Then comes in with his rusty voice Maybe he's flat or sharp But no one ever notices They're caught within his spell When that bluesman does he's stuff Then in his world they dwell With the bluesman You get just what you see He's not out to impress you, man He's busy being He And when he plays, he's 'It' my friends He pulls you into him The bluesman can you hear him now? When all the lights are dim. 23 July 2013 @ 1708hrs
It's a crying shame In the midnight hour I stroll along this shore A silence comes on over me I've felt this thing before It's a kind of joining up with God Whatever that might be In the midnight hour so all alone with me. So early in the morning Before the dark has gone I stroll along these wetland trails My heart all filled with song I hear the birds who come alive Sing their prayers for the day In the early morn, the whole world seems okay It's a crying shame That the silence has to go Amidst the noise of the market place What happens to that glow That come when folk are not around Oh, it's a crying shame It might be that it's only me to blame. I walk amidst the market place With all the noise it makes The gossip and the judgements come It's noise for it's own sake As I try to find the silence Of the morning and the night I am searching for that source of all delight.
It's bout to get worse It was written in the verse The truth hurts ARMAGEDDON WILL NOT BE TELEVISED When the time comes No one's gonna hold up a sign saying it's time to "get right" It's gone come like a thief in the night! Blowin' up and wreckin ish! The war you want is the war you gone get It was written before our time We keep looking at the signs manifest before our very eyes constantly denying our right to be one of the meek ones of our time ARMAGEDDEON WILL NOT BE TELEVISED We're at the end of what used to be existence Every super power will answer to a higher power so pray repentence The time is closer than any distance From Washington to Obama No one will escape the wrath! Hope you choose the right path! Narrow is the gate of the righteous tracks that are imprented on the mind of the omnipotent one Will you be spared life on earth with the meek ones and accurately take in knowledge of his son? OR will you perish in the dust never to be awakened again? No consciousness of sin ARMAGEDDON WILL NOT BE TELEVISED! It's in the verses Read it, see it, live it, rehearse it You see the times changing You see the minds fading You see the world and how messed up it is You see that nigga satan and his curses! I pray to have a chance to live a beautiful paradise on earth like it say in the verses! ARMAGEDDON WILL NOT BE TELEVISED YOU HAVE OFFICIALLY BEEN WARNED
To Dine, To Die; Conversations spiral While thunderous eyes Grasp concepts to recycle. Constant debt crisis A political paradox Grating social devices Over the sorting of socks. Pseudo-analysis An endless groan Argumental paralysis The debate grants no throne. Existentialism Over a roast Potatoes won't listen To who talks the most. "That point is so interesting" The floor is open for chat "What is real?" not a thing "Meow" adds the cat.
If we don't let go the past the future will not come so easy, so many time we go wrong many time we are right yet we are not perfect need to forgive others that hurt us,thou heart may remember forever heart may not want to give chances any more any longer we need to move on without the past we maybe taller than a tree yet we cant see the future it is covered by the cloud the future is many distance away hard to believe,hard to see everyday we try harder everyday it goes longer a plant today can be a beautiful flower tomorrow so dont up-root it forgive and let go the past by-gun is by-gun, give love a second chance !!!!let go the past-let come a new day!!!!!
The crystal lake The crystal lake, so soft, serene and still Enhanced our love, so tender it did feel As we sat and watched the world go by And all it seemed was part of you and I. My heartstrings sang, as the sun worshipped your hair As your essence glowed, so pristine and so rare Your soft, sweet beauty, it lulled my head like wine As your lovely eyes like naked stars did shine. As the Lord looked down, and cast her light on you And with this light came love so pure and true Our lonely days were over, we'd found joy In a love so strong that nothing could destroy. And time stood still and all that is was one We shared each other with the rising sun Then we laughed, and sang, and laughed and cried We'd found that space where only love can hide. 1996
God's child and only his. He's been teaching me lessons since.. before my teenage years. I learn things quickly, a genius...maybe. He has yet to expose his gift to me. He has yet to begin revealing my destiny. So I wait...wait for my world to shake. Wait for my heart to ache. With every storm comes sunshine. An inner glow given from the divine. A new found sense of control. Thank you for allowing me to learn lessons. That's why I call them painful blessings.
What happened to us? Did it just take one night? How does a beautiful friendship turn into mistrust and fights? Everyone was against us. Did our love make us blind? We seemed to be winning the race, and now we're so far behind. I love you. I love you! Me and you, It's my life. If money didn't matter, I would make you my wife. Nothing makes me happier then to see a smile on your face. I love your style, your car, your taste, and your place. It's home to me, baby. You invited me into your world. My angel, my treasure, my dream, and my girl. The one I held close at night and hung out with all day. The one I fought for her rights, the one who took my breath away. We've had our ups, we've had our downs, and if this you happen to read, I want you to know that I love you. Lea, it's you that I need!
After long day`s play with doves ,they fly in the light Let`s rest in the love
Oh, Can you see Oh, Can you see Can you, hear the music of moonlight walk the starlight at midnight All along the Milky Way Oh, Can you see Oh, Can you see Can you, hold my hand, in your hand... glide walk with me on the sand, side by side All along the Milky Way Oh, Can you see The night, the night is so dark and I am cold and waiting for you. All at once, I reach out, you are there, waiting for me to. Can you, hear the music of moonlight walk the starlight at midnight all along the Milky way Oh can you see… *the youtube track is in the About the Poem
Last night, this canal bank was home I see the tossed newspapers blow And a solitary brown blanket lie Where not all that long ago Someone slept... but they were not camping This was home last night And, as I approach the bridge I see him sitting there... on my right... Hes old and weezened, lights a cigarette Or at least his best to do so he does try... And I ever the Christian full of compassion Keep my distance and hurry by.
The secret syllables and words surround me in a morning fog I absorb them through the places I wonder ideas I ponder they flow into my blood veins as they spill from my rose lips like shameless water they sweep into me like the wind behind my bare knees they whisper into my ears within the summers breeze they creep u on me like a bottle feeling emerged from being cloaked deep within the search for a pen and paper, feverishly begins into the depths of my soul the intensity is hard to control like a wave, the words tumble over me overwhelmingly grainy sands distort my messages vision as I struggle to write how I remembered the piece would begin it feels like a rush of electric creativity lightning bolts of wisdom jolt through my body shooting from me stories of grief, and struggles things I share to help others not to repeat of loss and love like a bottled sermon thrown from above the words hit me
Like the seraphs whose wings unfold, Christ's light and glory goes not untold; as the love of his humble grace moves inside me all time and space, as the planets orbit heaven's sun and encircle it one by one-- so, too, am I caught in his sway, beloved of him from day to day. Through hosts of astral dimension God's angels fix their attention with expectancy and burning pause amidst the universe's First Cause. He, the one true Incarnation that begets cosmic causation, resolves the Infinite Regress from the pre-Socratics' egress with his omniscient wisdom and the archives of his kingdom where all can come and read and know what miracles he'll yet bestow.
I like your love It's pure, it's innocent and I don't think I've seen this before You replenish my reserves before it's necessary you lift my wings up and make me superior to my adversary Creatively providing the exact amount of what I need to go another day I like your love and for as long as you'll have me I'll stay You make me comfortable in my space What she share cannot be replaced with any other type of love be it artificial or tainted or lustfully blatant Those illusions don't exist because we found this love and we claimed it I cherish those nights when I scratch your head When you sit between my thighs and I twist your dreads We become an us that is so pure that the spring waters question the purity of it's source I like your love - it's a divine force
"Just forgive and live" Is what I always say Why weight yourself down,with those past burdens everyday? It will possibly ease your mind,and cleanse your troubled heart Making you then realize,you should have done this from the start Holding grudges causes anger,and your anger then turns to rage Like a repetitive word in a book, that you read on every page "Now just let it all go!" change the words written in that book Then every time you turn the page,life gives you a fresh new look 1-25-12

Something like a love song Crossed my mind, Sang to my soul, Made my heart fly. Something like a daydream Drove me wild Had me on cloud nine Free like a child. Something like a miracle Hit me hard Had me jumping and skipping. I was touching the stars. Something like a love story Took my by surprise Feeling like I won the lotto Gave me butterflies. Something like a love song Played softly to my heart beat Its all your fault And I'm swept off my feet.
In the palm of your hand lay the eyes to my soul And do not be frightened to never let go under your feet is where I live below And that's where I like it, I put on a show Captivated My head aches yeah Left me for dead..... .....What else do you want to know! The secrets you keep, you keep to yourself Trapped in a jar and then put on the shelf I'll smash your secrets, cos I need the wealth But you will not know, cos I do it in stealth Captivated My head aches yeah Left me for dead..... .....What else do you want to know! I'm begging you keep me under your feet I like it here with the devil next to me I'm begging you Please do not unearth me I like it here with the devil next to me In the palm of your hand lay the eyes to my soul And do not be frightened to never let go under your feet is where I live below And that's where I like it, I put on a show Captivated My head aches yeah Left me for dead..... .....What else do you want to know!

I'm here to tell you, if a man lay a hand on you, it's not love. So don't you dare think it, it's time to move on and find you a new home. But if you decide to take him back, expect for the worse. Get ready for the apologizing and this is how it's gone go. Well I'm sorry baby, it's not gonna happen again, he will say that he is going to change, so can we get back together again Then he will do the same thing again if u take him back. He will make you pay for doing that. You may say to yourself that you love him. But he don't love you too, so do what's best and let him loose. You may not take my advice, your mother advice or your father advice. So you are saying you rather fight, but it is not really fighting when he is only hitting you And leaving bruises all over you. Then you will hear the same thing all over again Well I'm sorry baby, it's not gonna happen again, he will say that he is going to change, so can we get back together again Most likely you will take him back again Because you do love him, but the sad thing about it, he does the same thing all over again Your life is still full of hearthache and pain He puts you in the hosoital this time You still belive he hasn't commented a crime. Your family talks to you about it, and the police do too You say you rather not file charges. and your family says he don't love you But you still believes he do So he shows up at the hospital and says the same thing again Well I'm sorry baby, it's not gonna happen again, he will say that he is going to change, so can we get back together again But again you take him back, at first he real sweet and nice. He takes you out to dinner, and tells you sweet things in you ear. What he doesn't know you really don't want him near. Then down drops a tear, you ask him do he love you? He just sits therer with starer. Then he says I do love you, more then life itself. He reaches over to kiss you. You move back with fear. He says come on we're going home dear. Then when yall reach the house, he hits you in the mouth. Sop then he knocks you to the floor. Then you say, "No More" You get up and run to the closet, and pull out a gun. You point it at him. and told him to get back You say that you are leaving, and your not coming back He says you're not leaving, and charge you with force. Which we all know it wasn't, you will charged with murder one, and tell me what for What did he ever do for you , but not love you
He lurks in the evening his black polished car the driver can say nothing he knows this and goes far into the very world he is so against he calls her up at night and pays with our expense she comes with a bag of toys reserved only for the players only for the ones who can afford to pay her and when the morning comes his sloppy body lies in a stale sheet of the night before he does this every week and everything is free because he has a pen in which he writes it off again at our expense a hotel stay for business is a night of pleasure when you are the one people call the governor.
I'll keep dancing forever In this wonderful world that I'm in Everything is a beautiful dance I don't know what's coming before me It's a sweet game of wonderful chance So many get caught in the fear game As each day does crush them some more But I'm on a wonderful journey Though I know me not what's in store The end I can see in the future But what is the future I ask The past it has gone like the dust in the wind So, can in the future, one bask?? So I say 'who cares' it's all nothing Just an old boat afloat on the sea As it waits to be broke by the ocean And join in with eternity. So it's all a dance, to my thinking The good parts, the bad parts as well And me I don't know where I'm going Don't believe in no Heaven, nor hell One dances, no thought for the ending And so it's the same with my life I'm going to get into the dancing Through all of my love, joy and strife. 7 July 2013 @ 0712hrs
~ Heart & Soul ~ It's not just about that one person You can't imagine your life without It's so much more than that It's waking up each morning Knowing you have a family who loves you It's a group of friends Who care about you Not just Some made up version of you It's that feeling you get when you help someone out Or when a dream comes true It can be happy or sad It can lift you up or break you down It can break your heart Or it can heal you Yet one thing is true If you have felt it even once You'll never want to let it go It has so many forms With so many different ways you can feel it Even a day to celebrate it It is a feeling that Is hard to live without Those who have never felt it They are the ones I feel sorry for LOVE A four letter word That says so much Means so much Has such an impact on so many lives It's so important In so many ways A couple just starting out Two people spending the rest of their lives together A family Friends A lifelong dream And so much more A feeling Called Love I prefer to Call ~ Heart & Soul ~ By: Jean Bonella February 14, 2013 Happy Valentines Day! To all my family and friends Thank you, for all the love you give
Race for Grace, tighten your lace Heaven is the place, its always been the case Stare in space, wonder where is this place Can't win with a 9 and an ace, go all the way So seek HIM and pray, so when is the day We go unto Grace, in my heart HE is 1st place So do you still wonder how to win, the Race for Grace You are puzzled, or in a maze But i found, the only 1 to arose from a grave It is we HE saved, so do you see We all can win, The Race for Grace
I made my way to the Airport Board my flight, destination…New York Secured my seat I began staring out the window Ready set for the spectacle display on show Lift off...and away we go Turning to our left like a boomerang-bow Above the clouds my eyes start explore There are things about the clouds I do adore As we pass over the Island of Grenada, I saw Beautiful cloud formation...encore There was a gate guarded by two Angels with spears Inside sat a King proud and fierce Flanked by Angels in garment white and clean Guarding his kingdom from us… or so it seem It was the most beautiful thing I've seen No dream, all real what I saw I just love staring out the window… Copyright © March 30th 2011 By: Brian Pierre-Alexander
In brevity of time God aroused my soul aside. While enraptured in this moment, Deity, had so rapidly, Stripped away my sinful pride.
This is where my heart is, This is where it beats, Singing a song Every moment we meet. This is my life, Where you're my star, Glittering and shinning, But always so far. Out of my reach, Making me cry, Forever and ever, Looking at the sky. I can't go near you, I just might burn. Being hurt is something I wish I never did learn...... PRE-CHORUS (But I know..... That one day..... It will show ....... And I'll be okay.....) CHORUS (This is where my heart is This is where it beats, I know you have one, Held back by the heat. I've watched you rise, I've watched you fall, Don't you know I've seen it all. I could be your plasma, I could be your flame, God only knows I'm the only one Who can recall your name. I won't let you go, You may only feel hate, But as long as you're here, I'll just stand and wait.....) You met a girl, she seemed so sweat, Little did you know it was your heart, That she liked to eat. I watched your hurt, I seen your pain, The flames surround you Like a lion's mane. If only she could see, The things I can, She'd never ever, Say you couldn't be her man. I feel so bad, But you have to learn, if you let down the flames No one else could be burned. PRE CHORUS CHORUS One day you'll let down all the flames, So I can see you, Cause baby you know, I'm in love with you.... Oh, Cause CHORUS X3 I'll just stand and wait.... Until you come, I'll.... just stand and wait.
O, see that sunset. That means the day is almost done, But there's a new day dawning In a land beyond the sun. A day of perfect peace and joy For you and me, In a land, beyond the sun, That we call Eternity. O, see that sunset. That means it won't be long till night; But after just a short sleep, We'll wake to morning light. A morning when from pain and grief We'll all be free. In that land beyond the sun, That we call Eternity. Where no one ever dies; No tears will dim our eyes. In the presence of the Lord We'll ever be. He'll wipe away all tears; We'll live through endless years, In that land beyond the sun, That we call Eternity.
My Dear World, I owe you an apology; Forgive me for I have distorted thee: lying passionately, I failed to accept you by chimera deceptional I wanted to surmount you believing myself to be exceptional. Forgive me My World my bitterness, narcissism and selfishness; for a fool I was since the truth was consciously unknown to me thus calamitious the discovery would be. Please forgive me all the souls my ambition eradicated, all the feelings my sharp tongue destroyed, all the emotions my cold heart repudiated, for how much all those deeds I enjoyed. I was then infected; the infection seemed incurable as I wanted it to be - or wasn't I aware how diseased I was? My Dear World, I owe you an apology; Forgive me my blindness to the beauty of life; With myself in centre I would not look around for distorted was my perception by a deceitful projection of perfect me in faulty universe. My Dear World, Thank you for instant recovery of my senses, the wisdom you blessed me with, the pain myself was redefined through. Yester year I reached the deepest depth slowly losing my pride - my psyche was nearing death in plight I could hardly abide - I understood a mere human I am. Now I laugh enjoying my life every day forsooth heartily and with ruth. Thank you My Dear World Please, forgive me.
Look at my silly grin What a wonderful day it's been It's almost like being in Heaven We got our referral today What more can I really say It's almost like being in Heaven Sure there's a ways to go But now our child we know So in this moment of time I feel quite sublime Pinch me quick Cause it's almost.. Yes, it's almost.. Almost like being in Heaven! Lyric Poem
On this journey I will not come with you. I will stay here, sitting on eagle's stone of Epos. Wingless but illuminated. Surveying the tangerine trees of Kampos and the red stone houses. The gained ground of my ancestors that become rosy-hued in the horizon from Tsesme and beyond. Chewing the mastic from Olympus, that gathered by your hands. Getting drunk with Ariousios wine, from grapes that stepped by your legs. I shall stay here. To give you back your homeland that for centuries now you walk on as foreigners.
Beautiful and inspiring is he, Who sees the world through rose colored glasses. If only he could see what I see. His sight is clouded with unfortunate sadness and melancholy He views the world from a birds eye perspective, He sees the beauty of the world around him... Yet true love and honest beauty, Grounded in reality He has neglected. He soars on eagles wings, Beautiful inspiration is what he brings. Strong and confident is he, Yet blinded by loves unsure indemnity. A broken heart, the gift of his passion Has left him standing alone... My beautiful inspiration.
Capture me in your wake Promising my heart won't break Lead me out of this destructive path Save me from the fall of the aftermath I see it all clear I lost all I once held dear Taken away by a moment of selfishness I'm lying alone in my own emptiness Goodbye monsters Don't even bother Pulling me down Not this time around No matter what I'm holding on Daring you to bring it on I'm breaking free out of this Don't want to live like this I'm getting swallowed by the walls of passivity Break me free of this captivity It's time to tell the monsters to move on Time to let the chains go and carry on Make no mistake there's a fighter in me These monsters won't get the best of me Goodbye monsters Don't even bother Pulling me down Not this time around No matter what I'm holding on Daring you to bring it on Mistakes build up in a sea of regrets Reminding me the guilt I want to forget And my enemies mock me as I walk by Spreading their sickness, telling me lies Everyone's pretending to be okay Truth is we're all falling away This charade never helped me anyway Now I want to do more than just get by Goodbye monsters Don't even bother Pulling me down Not this time around No matter what I'm holding on Daring you to bring it on
I close my eyes in darkness While the world lies down to sleep As a father and a husband My family's mine to keep Protect them? I am willing I am always there on guard But, when I'm not and far away I trust You are, oh Lord The rising sun of morning Has my family's eyes so wide As the motor sounds of traffic Fills the air that floats outside And the people that are walking Some are jogging, some just go Makes me see, what truly is And all I really need to know God, You're there… I see you In the blue that reigns up in the sky On the breath of clouds that float on by The image of the homeless man Who still offers up his time As he asks not for, without doing first So I give water to quench his thirst To the flowers that grow in the park And the trees that children climb God, You're there… I see you While coming home at evening time Knowing my family waits for me I smile real wide as I walk along So all the world can see Maybe then they'll see just what I see And then take it on their way With hopes that they will share a smile And make better someone's day Now the sun has set, children tucked With a kiss I gave to fall asleep Standing at the door I see my wife And I feel the love she gave to keep I thank you Lord for all I have For always seeing my family through Because I know I couldn't do this alone That's why I put my faith in You God, You're there… I see you In the blue that reigns up in the sky On the breath of clouds that float on by The image of the homeless man Who still offers up his time As he asks not for, without doing first So I give water to quench his thirst To the flowers that grow in the park And the trees that children climb God, You're there… I see you
VERSE 1 Everybody in the streets is dancing to Africa music, Everybody smiling, laughing. Live their dream because they choose it. Come on people, celebrate. Celebrate our Nation. Let's all be equals now. No more emancipation. CHORUS Come on Africa, Rainbow Children, You're Africa's life-blood pumping. Africa Rainbow Children, Mama Africa always jumping. VERSE 2 Reach out and help your brothers. Takew care of fathers and mothers. Dry the tears on others' cheeks, Give love to all who seek it. CHORUS VERSE 3 Come on Africa, show your joy to the world's girls and boys. Mama Africa, spread your love. Give thanks to God above. CHORUS x 4
Trust In Destiny Do your best then trust in destiny, It's the only valid thing that you can do. Cause there ain't no use in worrying, It's a fact I'm telling you. It wears you down and makes you sad, Or boils your blood and gets you mad No worry's not the proper thing to do. You found a lump or your children get ill Or you're out of dosh and cannot pay your bills, Or death has shadowed your poor life Or you think someone may steal your wife, Your kids are causing too much strife, It'll all work out when the time is rife It will work out I'm telling you. So throw them, Ditch the bloody lot, And look right now at what you have got, For worry causes love to die and rot It does, it does I'm telling you. So watch the Sun come up every day, In nature everything's is just okay. The Earth keeps turning steadily, And the birds still sing in ecstasy, And deep within your soul you're free, And it all depends on destiny No matter what you try to do.
Where Wild Violets Grow Scribbling these verses, caressing your bare back, simple rhymes, flowing from my fingertips. Scribbling verses, sprinkling odes to fragrant promises, your smile lightens the burdens, off my heavy heart. Scribbling verses, soaked in countless kisses, the moonlight waltzing on your skin. Scribbling verses, feeling you, your love never ceases to flow, through the streams of my mind, to a place of our own, where wild violets grow
As the night sets in, it's as black as it's ever been. My soul is in ruin, and my heart is like a back pack carrying a load of sin. In the closet my skeletons scream, and constantly torment me. The rage in my blood stream causes me to blaspheme religiously! I am doomed because I'm so consumed by that very rage; Engulfs me like burning fire, wraps me like barbed wire that causes a rampage! The malice in my heart craves the blood from a helpless foe. I feel I'm being ripped apart like some dark work of Edgar Allen Poe! So many sins to atone for, and I get on my knees to repent. Again with my face on the floor, I pray I receive a love that's heaven sent. The evil is eating me alive from the inside out. I can't survive when I feel like I'm fighting a 12 round bout! My greed has come between me and my family. I just wanted to succeed, but I admit I did it selfishly! I seduced Lisa knowing she was married to another man, I just didn't care. As Lisa fell in love, I became her number one fan, and then I ended our love affair! My conscience wouldn't let me continue on the path of destruction. I think of the consequence of losing you and laugh because now I'm unable to function. I now see literally that it is better to lose an eye than your soul. As I write my sin and poetry, I cry knowing my heart is as black as coal! My new form written strictly for Constance's contest "Create your own form maybe" ? is called Stanlets because it consists of couplets and stanzas that rhyme and is a dark subject. Jimmy Anderson

To my best friend, JAM… I know you're tired and your soul is weary; twenty three hours Of each day you're alone and in that cell. But be strong and know that you're really not alone If you could only look at it, this way..alone, away from the others, you are safe..away from Deeper trouble..soon you'll be going home. Although my heart is heavy, I am sure your cross is far heavier than mine. I tried to find a song that would tell you that you are loved and I chose this Please read these words to this song, "I'll stand By You" by The Pretenders Written by HYNDE, CHRISSIE/KELLY, TOMSTEINBERG, William E/ They don't play it often on radio stations anymore, so I'm posting the lyrics instead. Oh, why you look so sad, the tears are in your eyes Come on and come to me now, and don't be ashamed to cry Let me see you through, 'cause I've seen the dark side too When the night falls on you, you don't know what to do Nothing you confess could make me love you less. I'll stand by you I'll stand by you, won't let nobody hurt you I'll stand by you So if you're mad, get mad, don't hold it all inside Come on and talk to me now Hey there, what you got to hide? I get angry too, well, I'm a lot like you When you're standing at the cross roads And you don't know which path to choose Let me come along, 'cause even if your're wrong I'll stand by you I'll stand by you I'll stand by you, won't let nobody hurt you I'll stand by you Even to your darkest hour, and I'll never desert you I'll stand by you And when, when the night falls on you, baby You're feeling all alone, you're wandering on your own I'll stand by you…………
Always wanted to be a hero But I am just another zero I don't live in a mansion I can't cope with fashion I don't drive the car I desired I don't have the job I aspired Dreamt I would be a doctor Thought I would be a lifesaver Papa wished I was a pilot But I'm only a failed poet Who stole my dream? X 4 As I step into the future I gotta be all so positive I gotta be all so decisive I gotta reclaim my glory Gotta shatter the shackles of poverty Gotta break the bonds of paucity I'm gonna rise from the ashes I'm gonna give my life a new meaning Build a fancy house, buy a fancy car Buy a fancy phone, marry a queen Travel first class, into the future
Trees and dirt I sleep on the earth, the dust the sand, longing to birth. Oil on skin, bare, sweat on your back, feels amazing. Yes! Im back on track. Sleeping cosy as a worm, unencumbered by any material possession or fixed term. Free to explore, a magical universe, I must implore. No home, no chores, no bills to pay. Just water, food gathered and warmth today. A dusty cave, cute as a button, no slamming door, just love in your belly, to the very core. I love this realm, just need more time, time to explore. Trees and dirt I sleep on the earth, the dust, the sand, longing to birth. And return once again to mother earth.
Stay on your road to somewhere... For the goals you hold dear... follow your dreams out there... and on your road to somewhere..... You'll crawl before you walk... and walk before you run... just keep those strong thoughts... through the rising and setting sun... And with your hopes and dreams be bold... keep the faith in the goals you hold... strive to reap the thoughts you sow... on your road to somewhere.... You'll crawl before you walk... and walk before you run... just keep those strong thoughts... through the rising and setting sun... Stay on your road to somewhere... for the goals you hold dear... follow your dreams out there... on your road to somewhere... Strive to reap the thoughts you sow, with your hopes and dreams be bold, keep the faith, for such is gold... stay on your road to somewhere... for your dreams out there.
No greater from me does God require, Nor less, does He, of me expect. That for Him, great love, I aspire, And love for neighbor, I not neglect. Matthew 22: 37-40
The Come-back King is Coming Back for You [Lyrics of Song] (Written by inspiration of Singer, Wintley Phipps) Jesus is the come-back King— He came back from the dead; He's coming back for you— For your eternity He's plead. Your sins that were once scarlet; Covered by His righteousness; He lived a perfect life— To grant you holiness. Chorus Jesus is the come-back King— No greater king will reign; He's coming in the clouds To collect His chosen who remain. The come-back King is coming— Coming back for you; It's because He loves you; Your life, He will renew. Jesus is the come-back King— He came back from death's sleep. He came back to be your Savior; To provide comfort should you weep. He sent you His Holy Spirit, So you can overcome; Reject Satan's temptations— Your victory to be won. The come-back King is happy, As happy as can be; He knows He did not die in vain On Calvary's, Roman tree. You took up His offer— Of freedom and of choice. He's going to hold a party; In heaven, we'll all rejoice. Copyright © Maureen LeFanue 2010-2012 www.maureenlefanue.com
You are a shooting star. You're light shines here from far. A burning fire in the sky. To dream, like a star, you fly. To let the insults of the world pass you by. Always keep your head held high. As a dreamer you are strong. To keep following the dream along. Keep pushing forth with all your might. Never give up your will to fight. Find strength deep within your light. Keep your fire burning bright. Though there are people that doubt. Follow your dreams, don't push them out. Within yourself, believe in you. When you follow your dream they will come true. As a shooting star leaves a trail of dust. In your dreams you must trust. Let your dreams take you far. For in everyone lives a shooting star.
Thy brother, strong, straight and true, to the core, his blood flows, fast and through. I love him dearly, ever since his birth, what an incredible gift from mother Earth. Mad as a cut snake, I'd hate to cross. You did? You C@#T! Ha Ha, your loss. Boxer and Biker, to the very core, F@#$%n crazy Outlaw. His heart is enormous, as big as Ayres Rock, the man is solid, no muppet could knock. F@#k yeah! I love him to death, till my last rattle of breath. Not long now to go, I will see him in time, my brother, my brother, dear friend of mine.
Is she the one my dream come true The one that makes me whole. Throughout the end of time I'd give my heart and soul. Is she the one with qualities to endure the test of time. Her unexpected stare sends shivers up my spine. And gives me butterflies inside Is she the one I can't decide That always keeps me satisfied My mind is left preoccupied You have ignited every flame Within my beating heart. Now far from you I cannot part. Is she the one my sweetheart the angel in my life. For you I'd walk a thousand miles The toughest ride you've made worthwhile I've looked beyond your hazel eyes Your every glimpse, your every smile In love we've deeply intertwine Is she the one who will be there to catch me when I fall. That picture perfect puzzle To you I give my all. Is she the one Well better yet she 's got the hooks on me. The fear of losing her is deeper than the sea. ©RashanaKing2010
I let you die for my name As you reached for my hands Out of waters of drowning What a hypocrite this writer is The Hatred of Solitude Letting an orphan dream Then destroy him with knowledge Of what you have done He opened up to you In new ways But in nostalgic guises The springwinds whisper blithe yore But the winterwinds, much stronger Caress you with the dreams of your funeral sky "It was you… it was your fault… Letting the one who was so open to you Be the laugh… the piece in the game…"

They look at me and all they see is porcelain A fragile girl breaking within Underestimated of my highest potential Reaching too far will be my downfall But I won't listen to the voices Saying I can't handle these life choices I've seen what I've seen And I've done what I've done Can't erase my mistakes, just got to move on People point and laugh, but they don't know the real me They see who I was, not who I can be Let me run wild and free Live out love and just let it be The past is gone, a new day has come My story has now only begun I'll shatter the walls of vulnerability Let them fall to open up possibility I've been running for so long I don't know where to go Something in my soul has been begging me to know What have I got to be afraid of? What have I got to be hiding from? I've got nothing else to lose So I'll steer this boat any direction I chose I'll show them I'm more than just porcelain There's unbreakable strength coming from within Let me run wild and free Live out love and just let it be The past is gone, a new day has come My story has now only begun Isn't it amazing? Isn't it great? How history stands the test of time Repeating itself every time Proving some things never change That we're the actors and the world's the stage It seems like our work is futile Like our efforts aren't even worth while But we chose what we say what we do We walk down the path we chose Let me run wild and free Live out love and just let it be The past is gone, a new day has come My story has now only begun
Sightless visions of this world Collapsing reason, the rising scared Disillusion breaking bonds The gravity of this collective song The undeterred replacing truth Teach detachment to the youth Complexity and blinding games Reattaching trauma's shame Cold perception blaming loss Upon reflections in the frost Banished hearts creating schemes Against ourselves; this broken theme The self-receptive caught within The fear of self within their skin It's in this place we choose our worth While people fight upon the earth The gravity that passes by We're falling down, or into the sky No more places left to hide We forgive the past, or our future dies This illusion breaking fast We fight against the spells we cast Between the earth and universe We must dissolve this tangled curse
I hear her screams that echo from her heart. What I'd do to silence them and show her understanding. I feel her pain that tears her apart. What I'd do just to give her solace that she has been quietly demanding. I feel the tears that fall from her eyes. What I'd do just to give her sight towards a future that is promising. Can you see that as you suffer, so do I? Can you hear the screams that I cry? Can you hear me asking God why? Why must we suffer and endure so much pain? Why has the sun hidden just to give us more rain? Why have our minds driven us so insane? Rain you will not drown us in the flood. We won't be cast aside, we will be alive! The disturbing places we once occupied will be left behind. I've been wanting to show you that through the lies we can find truth. I've been wanting to show you that through the pain we've gained nothing but strength. Open your weary eyes to a future that burns bright. Take my hand as we persevere and push forward. Opportunities lost just lead to another open door. Rid yourself of the veil that once masked your identity. Believe in yourself and don't listen to a single word of negativity. Nothing can hold you down with me by your side. I won't let you slip, I won't let you fall. This light, your eyes, nothing can swallow you alive. You won't drown! You will breathe! I've heard your screams. Now follow this road I've paved to lead you towards your dreams.
When I arrive at edge of night, And permanence is in full view. Let me not dwell on things of fright, But have eyes affixed on you. For things in life I might have done, Won't take me to your presence. And there'll be no thing hidden, not one, Because of your omnipresence.
It's the third verse, I got the urge to purge All the curt words I've splurged, I've submerged in sin, I'll go to church repent, Then go curse again, Lets reverse this trend We nurse tolerance, When it might offend, If I white wash my fence, So try to not get tense, When I do not defend, Those who chose to be dense And not use their two cents, To show kids the reverence, For the pledge of allegiance.
Lord, I need not prove my worth to man, By driving a brand new car. For the one that thou hast given, Still takes me near and far. Lord, I have no need for a newer house, To satisfy ego or my pride. For the one that thou provided, Can be warm or cool inside. Lord, For larger closets I have no need, In which new clothes to store. For what you've give still suffice, And I've your promise of more. Lord, I need not do one single thing, Proving to others that I can, It's important only that they see, Your love in me for my fellow man. Lord, A frugal lifestyle teach me to live, In all that you would have me be, Being content wherein I'm blessed, Giving praise and thanks unto thee. Lord, May I not seek the praises of men, Nor be found doing for show. But be at peace within my heart, Being enough Lord, that You know.
i don't wanna sit here in the garden, without you i don't want to be here falling apart, waiting for you cause i'm sick and tired of existing here, without you dear hanging onto nothing, hoping for something we're not adam and eve oh why can't you see how much i need you so hard to believe yet cannot conceive how much i love you i won't say sorry doesn't mean a damn thing cause you don't love me we can never be i'm not gonna stand here all evening, without a clue i'm not gonna be here sweetheart, bleeding just for you cause i'm sick and tired of burning here, without you dear hanging onto nothing, hoping for something we're not adam and eve oh why can't you see how much i need you so hard to believe yet cannot conceive how much i love you i won't say sorry doesn't mean a damn thing cause you don't love me we can never be you're not adam, more like the snake you're the phantom, that haunts me you can't be adam more like the snake you're the phantom, ripping my heart away we're not adam and eve oh why can't you see how much i need you so hard to believe yet cannot conceive how much i love you i won't say sorry doesn't mean a damn thing cause you don't love me we can never be
SOUL MATE I came in the name of He who gave you breath. As certain as the emptiness of time, as hopeful as your life, and meaningless as death, I came to stay. No holy water, no exorcist's demand, can quench your thirst; your need for all I am. I fill your head with things not meant to understand, I came to stay. I breath your name, tormented you may seem, and sleepless is your night, I fill your time. I am the joy of life beyond your dying scream, I came to stay. I came in the name of He who gives you death. I am the calm and blinding of the light. Forever part of you, I am your very breath. I came to stay. ...........© Ron Wilson
You belong to me mate ( Intro ) And that be that! Get on board And grab your hat! The ship was aghast at its new passenger ( Verse ) Like disdain for the lives that they now left behind, Newcomers were scarce And they never would last But I held up my chin nice and high. The bloke who took me screamed ( Pre-chorus ) "Mop up the deck we've got things to do!" But I said sir, I'm just a boy and don't know what's to do. And he said ( Chorus ) "Drifting mainly Sailin the shores Taking what's mine And leaving what's yours Cause you know, we ain't dead yet." Taking the seas for more than eight moons We found islands and loot That was bigger than most. The taste of sea air With its wind in my hair Took me away to this new life I lead. After mopping the deck He grabbed my hand and screamed "Steer this ship boy!" But I said sir, I'm just a lad and don't know where to go. So the crew yelled ( Chorus ) "Drifting mainly Sailin the shore Taking what's mine And leaving what's yours Cause you know, we ain't dead yet." Surprising to me Was my unshaven face The captain looked on And smiled with grace, We stopped at a place Where the women were loose and didn't mind If we took a peak. He said "Now you're a man so let's get on that boat, We got places to be and some people to rope, So grab that sword and drop that mop Cause you're no longer a boy in my eyes." I practiced the duel with the men in the crew The captain took eye to my devilish pride, And he took me aside and said "Even in death I'm gonna miss you boy But don't let it strike you Or kill your spirits Cause even time can beat out the Grim." Then in the darkness came fire and screams, Our vessel had stopped after fourteen years, The crew fought hard and beat most of the men But now, my Captain was dead. We took the new ship watching ours sink deep Saying goodbye to our drowning escape, The crew turned towards me and asked "What do we do?" and I smiled, And they did to. And we yelled ( Chorus ) "Drifting mainly Sailin the shores Takin what's mine And leaving what's yours Cause you know, we ain't dead yet."
I keep all this smile Push away some pride Look at my heart Seeking for more Attention, those are not Tears, of desperation I just wanna reach the door Don't wanna keep waiting for This feeling of lost Of all the demons who talk Over my voice, restless So I can beat my best Yes I care, I gotta be somewhere Yes I dare, the world to be fair I'm scared, sure It covers my eyes Sometimes, it's fine 'Cause I'll reach the door Run 1000 miles if needed for But I'll reach the door To free my mind To create my own chord. Yes I care, I gotta be… better.
Why am I such a dusty window For your light to shine through? Why am I just a tiny star In a sky already blue? Why do I offer everything With my heart closed like a fist? I want to love You better than this Why do I live like I'm in chains When You have set me free? And why do I have to break Your heart Before I fall to my knees? I know it's time to pray for change Give all I have to give I want to love You better than this chorus: So renew me Remake me Undo me Unbreak me Come into the empty spaces Of my broken places And consume me Complete me Pursue me Redeem me Let Your Holy Spirit living through me Renew me I need You as my refuge My first and last resort Be the river always running Through my deepest thoughts Keep me in Your arms 'Cause even when I drift I want to love You better than this chorus: So renew me Remake me Undo me Unbreak me Come into the empty spaces Of my broken places And consume me Complete me Pursue me Redeem me Let Your Holy Spirit living through me Renew me My life bending to Your will Seeking You until I'm more and more like You Heritage Singers: Youtube link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2h0s5Z0VAw Since I can't blog, I just wanted to share this song that has been going on in my mind today...an endless loop. God is so good. I'm just so in awe of how patient He is with me. I wander, forget that early love for Him that consumed my life, disappoint, and yet....He doesn't give up on me. I was asked to speak to my church group tonight. Though that used to be the highlight of my life...lately...I went through my old messages...wanting to just...spout out something...but this morning...He opened up my mind. He opened up my mind and just POURED it all in. The whole talk...verses and everything! The title...The Forgotten Verses! I'm going to share about Poetry Soup...how there is a link for good community members who post and encourage other poets....and how as a body of believers, we need to be there for each other...meeting one another's physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual needs...with verses that support. My foundational verse is the one after that MUCH quoted verse of Apostle Paul: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. WELL KNOWN, but the forgotten verse comes right after: Nevertheless, you have done well that you shared in my distress. (Philippians 4: 14) THAT is community. Sharing in the pain...bringing healing. My heart is full. Please, hear the song and be blessed. Pray for me tonight? Thanks!
Moments of quiet unfolding: Quiet probing my spirit's depths, Like a rose, petals unfolding To drink in the dawn's sweet breath. Quiet like the peace that lingered O're the waters the Master stilled; Quiet that in the tomb trembled, Pregnant, waiting to be fulfilled. Quiet that marched on the victor Robbing death and defeating sin; Quiet that stood in the garden And shouted, "Christ risen again!" Quiet that is the cloak wrapping God the Father, Spirit and Son, Before whom life's vulgar turmoil Surrenders her tongue and is dumb.
Let Me be there with you Let Me hold your hand For I can help you through to the promised land Let Me be there with you Let Me be your Guiding Light For I can take away the hurt, the pain, and the fright Let Me be there with you Let Me be your sword and shield For I can fight all your battles, if to Me you would yield Let Me be there with you Le Me be your Everything For I, God, died for you But now I live again - To only be there with you Be there for you To save you From dangers none could tell Death, Destruction An Eternity in Hell Save you so that you Would enjoy an eternity in Heaven In Harmony with Me If only you'd let Me be there with you Accept Me I'll Accept you Take you in as you are If you'd let Me be there with you
Guitarra, I'm begging,express my heart Pick away all that's ever ached Place these Spanish notes beautifully To the angel of her face Guitarra pleas, express this heart Bring to life our last Latin nights Dancing that flamenco from her charcoal eyes Reviving fiesta under most romantic moonlight Guitarra as now I gently play Fingers within running throughts through ebony of her hair "El espiritu de amor" is strumming along Bringing back the yesterdays to here Guitarra passion now is in the revival As the ghost of love tangos all around Milagros, I sense you near And in this instrument forever you are found
I have taken many passages on this journey called life, They have lead me to gardens infected with pain hurt and strife, I have walked down roads of roses paved with bitter thorns, All to find out those temporary releases leave so many torn. What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his infinite soul, What is the point of owning everything when in the end our hearts are not whole, Why do we work so hard for material gain yet neglect whose up above, Many are superficial flowers, blowing in the wind, knowing nothing of true love. I have run down dirt roads at night in the pouring rain, Thinking this void would be complete if I could just whisper your sweet name, I have cut through channels and canals just to get to your old home, In all my efforts I have found myself left rejected and alone. What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his infinite soul, What is the point of owning everything when in the end our hearts are not whole, Why do we work so hard for material gain yet neglect whose up above, Many are superficial flowers, blowing in the wind, knowing nothing of true love. Now I see before my very eyes the path that is actually straight, The only one that leads me to eternal golden gates, For the time I've wasted chasing dreams and idols in despair, Left me with a burden that no one in this world could bare. So I'll lose the world to gain my soul, And have my heart completely whole, While opening my eyes to whats above, embracing all his unconditional love, And I'll smile when I see those gates, The sweetest treasure I'll anticipate, Since all we are is passing through, I'll keep passing on until I reach what is true. By: Sabina Nicole Contest: song Passages I would want Lauren Hill to sing this song
Awaken frozen years of fright The light that died within the night The last of all you want to be In eyes that no longer want to see The turning of your sins to truth Experience that handed proof That falling down will make you rise The mirror burning through your lies Awaken shivering months of pain The same old story; same old games The fear that sunk into your heart In hate you thought could not depart Through every hurt that cracks your throne There's a silent story to decode Now understand; ignite your mind Now light the way and step outside Awaken screaming days of loss The counting down of every cost The breaking child becoming ice In eyes that suffer a thousand lives Awaken this moment of return Though the pain will briefly burn Step through your shadow and become The shining light without the sun
When I found my true path I remember the many wounds That healed in my heart And all because I found you. And in my dream, I could dance Upon white cotton clouds In heaven's romance. With you, no fear I know Together we are where we belong. Your love and warmth Help me get through the days When heavy storms And rough trail threatens my faith And I find that you've carried me all along Until heaven becomes our home. As I walked up my path Found thorn filled, I found the truth, That deepened the love in my heart That brought me even closer to you. And through the tears, in the sweet breeze Of your loving embrace I found grace. With you, no fear I know Together we are where we belong. Your love and warmth Helps me get through the days When heavy storms And rough trail threatens my faith And I find that you've carried me all along Until heaven becomes our home. And in my dream, I could dance Upon white cotton clouds In heaven's romance. With you, no fear I know Together we are where we belong. And through the tears, in the sweet breeze Of your loving embrace I found grace. With you, no fear I know Together we are where we belong. With you, no fear I know Together we are where we belong. Together we are where we belong. Lyrics to the waves of the Danube waltz by Ivanovici Created by CarolineCecile Feb. 23, 2011.
There were many days when all was well When hearts were pure and smiles swelled I used to live in a shack down by the sea I've seen the tears of joy at night The radiance of stars so bright It beauty melted the stony parts of me Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah There were many nights when I felt fright When there was no one to be found in sight But I had to keep on pushing, pressing on And when I thought of the good old days My only words became sweet praise And the winds just whispered hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah I know there is a God above Who healed me by his tender love Though all I've ever known was pain and doubt It's not by might nor by my power It's by his spirit I sing this hour A redemptive, thankful, glory hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah They say that people cannot change But I know better, because I'm not the same And since I did, well, really, what's it to you There is a word I now call victory I only know it because I've been set free The holy one deserves his hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah Contest:Hallelujah By; Sabina Nicole

I speak words, rawly, but productively, Poetry Is the Passion, I compose, with A gleaming heart, that spins the souls of others, vibrantly shinning, among the rainbows, Colorfully booming, Tenderly In A jukebox, as my ego, grows up the beanstalk, like sun-use, Wisely owl, among expression to, its knowledgeable ponder, for those who listen, Do you hear, what I hear? Do you see, what I see? Do you know, what I know? Please take A step- back, and listen chary to it again, As I compose my lyrics, down on A sheet of white paper, for all the world to, see, Hear, and know, because We are worthy, in the eyes of God... Dedication to all SP "FAM"
Before glass windows sea Before see-through eyes dust Before love could blossom ashes Arisen from the waves of trust
She hugs Him tight on this frigid night, Vedi Dolorosa Mater.( Latin meaning: I saw the most sorrowful mother.) Some shepherds shout as the sky about becomes angels to honor His Father. CHORUS: Sweet,sweet are his cheeks so meek in whom rags enfold and soon kings bring gold. Sweet bliss reigns as His Father deigns for the One we proclaim through the ages. The oxen snort as the world cavorts they ignore all the hope He is bringing. Yet even now, as the mule and cow raise their eyes to the angels still singing. CHORUS: Kneel, kneel to this King and sing of His precious love sent from God above. The world will know in the swirling snow of the One we proclaim through the ages.
It's here The end of my rainbow There's no pot of gold But yet a fortune for me It's true The life that we're living It can be much better But we must make it be That's why I stand here before you Singing these words I so long to say And you You're part of the rainbow The color so needed That changes my day So now, I'm painting my life With much varied hues A palette of color Nothing subdued And my eyes, They're filled with this rainbow It has me on course And it's all cause of you Yes, it's true My life Is now painted with you The roads Were winding and rugged But I traveled and tried To make it to here I knew The goal was my prize then The end is the victory And now it's so clear So now, I'm painting my life With much varied hues A palette of color Nothing subdued And my eyes, They're filled with this rainbow It has me on course And it's all cause of you Yes, it's true My life Is now painted with you Bridge: You're every color of the rainbow You're the light in my eyes You're the reason for being And the reason I try You're the lilt in my singing The half of the whole You're the end of my rainbow The mate of my soul So now, I'm painting my life With much varied hues A palette of color No, nothing subdued And my eyes, They're filled with this rainbow It has me on course And it's all cause of you Yes, it's true My life Is now painted with you
I'm waiting for salvation For the morning sun to rise I'm waiting for freedom To look me in the eyes But I'm hiding in the pine trees And I'm hiding from the light I'm hiding in the shadows And hiding in plain sight Do I see a tunnel Or do I see a wall Should I crawl forward Or from it will I fall I used to be a child When life was a game And I am yet a child But life is not the same I'm looking for a warmth That salvation must provide But until I find that freedom In the pine trees I will hide
I have found something Greater, stronger than democracy Making every person An equal player in the game of life I have found that, that Wields control where incursion has never made Beaming white light in the region of blackest darkness Widening the horizons beyond its marked borders Rising to peak only years before unattainable I have found that, which Conquers fortresses of pervading poverty Breaking barriers with ease of an effortless breath I found what and who rules our world The unseen but felt heat that stirs the pot to steaming hot The gentle and quiet brooks of immeasurable depth The strandless strings behind all thrones and seats of power I have found that, that Turns the obscured and scorned to cult heroes and heroines Turning millions jailbreaks from prison of ignorance Setting them free from captivity of oppression I have found what rules the world What demystifies ancient crowns And humbles the haughty might of men and women of modern powers I have found it ,that That comes in a small pack Wrapped in fragile protective cover of thoughts In the deepest corner of focused imagination Delivered by intensity of a burning desire Sustained to maturity by grid lock of firm actions I have found the magic wand of greatness That which makes you and i the beautiful bride of the world I found among the Wilbur- airplane- brothers I found it in Albert –inventions- Einstein's workroom and rimmed glasses In Emeka- modern computer- Emeagwali's thick black hairs I saw it lingering on Bill - microsoft - Gate I found it behind YAHOO, GOOGLE corners I saw it in YOUTUBE, FACEBOOK pages I found it in Kanu Nwankwo, Jay jay Okocha's laces and soles I found it in Micheal- thriller- Jackson I found it in Chinua- things fall apart-Achebe I saw it following Wole – kongi's harvest- Soyinka I saw dying with Claude –automobile-Ake I see it hanging out on you I feel it in me, i see it in these lines... I have found IDEA.. the ruler of the universe
Before judgment's seat I'll someday stand, And there, for my life, I'll confess. I'll plead entry at the Father's right hand, And judgment will be just, not some guess. At mach speed, I'll live over my life, Remembering times of Satan's taunting. If during this time sinfulness is rife, "I'll be weighed in the balance and found wanting." "Every knee shall bow and tongue confess" Romans 14:11

Atrocious Nobugana will he kill the cuckoo? You, spring rains, sing at eaves, princess heartsick leaves! Nobunaga-evil-minded will kill the cuckoo. Who knows? Maybe a geisha will dabble his heart with a song... Happiness eyedrops between bloomed cherries. Warm sights caress a real dream in the nest: tweet. Under the bloomed cherries, gifted Hideyoshi is singing a serenade. Even if it is raining, in his eyes I see the entire Sun. Ieyasu- the patient is waiting in the orchard to pass the rain- Opened umbrella by a flowers curl... Paper crane carried by the wind... Susanowa is vanishing a nightmare into a love kiss. An unique little cloud above the palace... Love poem far in the skies lover's face. Only Hitomaro knows the snows secret of the cherry's flowers . (translated by Raluca Ciociu)
Wake up every morning, Knowing it will be the same; Feel an endless longing, Inside a rage that can't be tamed. Haunted in my thinking, I let my big chance pass; And with it all believing, That my song would always last. Invited to The Boot to hear a band, Saw a flicker of what I used to be; A young man lost in his music, Yesterday that man was me. I remember making melodies, The world was in my hands; But it slipped through my fingers, I had to grow up and be a man. Let my hopes just fly away, All my dreams of entertaining; Now I'd give any thing to know, There's still one dream remaining. Sitting at this restaurant patio, The guitar's magic in his hands; His voice is smooth and effortless, Oh how I wish I was that man. The joy of being lost in the music, Alive, young at heart, and free; The tapping feet and smiling faces, To see how good your song can be. Let inhibition just fly away, He lives the dream of entertaining; Looks out at the admiring crowd, Says there's one demo remaining. Play your songs for all their worth, Never let them go; The world is your audience, Give them your best show. Don't let your chance pass you by, You can't stop believing; Life is in the music, And love is in the feeling. Let inhibition just fly away, I took the one demo remaining; My soul moved by the music, Tonight my dream reclaiming! Sponsor: Nathan A. Contest Name: any poem #5
He did not have to It was not mandatory But He did. Leaving the luxury Of His Father's splendour His home of indescribable Beauty and grandeur He peeped He descended He came down To me The living condition In my habitation Was one of discomfort and stench Filled with broken promises, Pains from the past, Hopelessness for the future. Yet He made up His mind about me Unlike me- He did not have second thoughts About the weather, The leaking pots The rusty bath tub The aged sofa Or the things I had done And had not done He moved in with me This Christmas He promised me a love: Never forsaking Never dying Never ending Dear God, If you are looking for Jesus this Christmas, He moved in with me
lt can greet you as an equal compliment you like a friend, can produce a new beginning or, assault you with an end. lt can trick you into thinking that what you believe in now, is true; then, make you feel like an idiot as lonliness swallows you. Life wouldn't be much without it t'wouldn't even be grace from above; we all experience it in many forms that's the audacity of love. It can also bring you comfort and can ease your worried mind, soothe you when you're hurting and teach you to be color blind; soften even the hardest of hearts and give the spirit of a dove, kill hatred with a knowing glance that's the audacity of love.
Beneath the bay's frigid waters life abounds large fish swim and green plants grow Frosty air above , movement below No fisherman here today the air is too chilly Let's give our planet a respite When the waters are too cold It is difficult to live and prosper Ice water chills our souls Yet we will survive and live on and our hopes will live on as well The ice water home won't last forever The frozen lake will thaw In the meantime we'll feast on our dreams
8 Dec 2012 8:30 am Where have my children gone Why are they not singing Where have my children gone Their laughter I no longer hear. I remember when they would sing Their praises were so sweet to dear My joy would fill them heart and soul Their laughter overflowed Their dancing was so beautiful to see They were such a joy to me Come my children sing to me Let my spirit set you free Fill my heart once more with joy Laugh my children girls and boys I will forgive if you are sincer I will calm every little fear I will heal you heart and soul I will warm you from the cold Where have my children gone why are they not singing Come my children come one and all Come my children and ancwer my call
A hunting riffle And a yell… On the blue shade of silence Scratches: Flashes light in the horizon The quietness… Worms spin the fortune wheel; Interfere with mermaids' songs- Pierced by the arrow The sunset is blocked Between the eyelashes. (translated by Laura Bogdan )
Is this fate or fiction.... the aesthetics of your love is a marvelous depiction I am having a love seizure or is your love an affliction Is this fate or fiction? It must fate, our paths have crossed our spirits soar just right you calm and sweet and never like to fight... bring security and confidence in such a delightful way.. the expressions of your thoughts blows my mind away Is the fate or fiction? It takes courage to find out which one would be the exemption.. fate or fiction? when you have been hurt by an ex's restrictions but the aesthetics of your love has become my addiction. No Fiction this is Fate.
Sounds of children laughing Singing and having a good time Is almost like a fairy-tale But this time, it's mine. The little ones are laughing and smiling Almost as hard as the youth do Together, we know we'll make a difference One little kid's dream will come true. We're doing something special for the world So others can live with love So we are giving just a few boxes of stuff Almost like a little treasure trove. Operation:Christmas Child How it brings smiles to my eyes To see all this hard work To help a few little lives. Bailey comes and takes my hand, "Kristen, come here and see! We've wrapped boxes full of toys For little children like me!" Given so unselfishly, These children donate so much Not only gifts, but unconditional love A hug and a warm touch. We stuff the boxes full of toys And wrap them one by one Soon, we have finished All the boxes are done. But we don't want to leave yet We're having so much fun So we hold hands and begin to sing Our voices blending to become one. We sing together for a while Then we must break up to go home But we know we'll still be there And our voices will carry on. So I go to bed this night With happy tears in my eyes Grateful for Operation:Christmas Child That boosts so many little lives.
One red dirt road surely to lead us home. Until we hit that patch of gravel. It sent our vehicle spinning three hundred and sixy degrees around. My God! We hit the bar ditch and went flying. My hands pressed against the dashboard. My heart beat pounding faster. Everything in bittersweet slow motion. Until we crashed upside down like waves in the ocean. My breaths began to shorten. My chest cavity aches. I'm trying to find a way out in all the chaos. The windshield breaks and i slowly unstrap my seat belt. I begin crawling on my knees. Glass carving cuts into my hands. I say Dear God please! Help me. My heart beating a million miles per second. I find my way in the darkness to the grass and the sand. I lie flat on my back and tears fall from these eyes. Adrenaline has failed me, pain begins to take it's course. Is this really happening? I roll over and stand on my knees. The pain erupts through my body, and I look towards the stars. Cuts across my flesh that will surely leave scars. Thank you God. For allowing me to live through this, it could have been such a tragedy. I'm alive, and this will be just another part of a chapter that makes up history.
Three crosses braved a forlorn hill, Focused in vision, I liken to the one. Though ages pass, I review it still, It bore a thief, not God's only son. While one evil doer paid Jesus scant heed, From one cross, amnesty was sought. Jesus forthwith pardoned his past deed, In brevity of a wink paradise was bought. Once seeing myself and this thief the same, I discerned the centers communique to me. That hope was abrogated, lest from here it came, And albeit, salvation was pricey, twas also free.

As the autumn of life drifts in The lights of my eyes grow dim With the joy of my years Still beside me here There is not much that I will fear As the winter of my life arrives My voice will be just a whisper With the joy of my salvation Waiting for me at the station I will in quiet adoration kneel In my mind spring will beckon me The baggage old and beat I'll leave With the joy of my life just within sight The constant yearning will cease As perfect joy will become complete ~*~
To nowhere land in thought I often go, Whilst there, I've naught to please. Temporarily, I escape both ebb and floe, Of life, while taking things at ease. There, I view not days long past, Nor contemplate those which may remain. But am inclined to prayer and fast, For this nowhere land is another's domain.
My life has never been easy. I was once a lost soul. Until that one special day when his angel wrapped her wings around me with a tight hold. She flew me through sky and guided herself through the lives of others. Other lost souls that is.... and slowly made my sorrows disappear. Relinquished my fears and replaced them with love. We flew like soaring doves. Finally, we came to a stop. And it's all my sorrows that I forgot. She whispered in my ear... All the words I needed to hear. In that instance I began to cry, not for me... but for the other lost souls who needed that same ride.
Somedays I wish I didnt Think what I think, These patterns of thought, Have me in the sink, Then bring me to the top, To put me back in my seat Somedays I wish I didnt Believe what I believe, So I could, Give into my passion to please, Dive into my sinful desires, and have control of my destiny Everyday, I come to realize at night With my eyes wide, That my flesh I dont have to Fight, Because Christ runs my life, And he takes the boulders off my shoulders, I am the gun and he is the holder, I am the clay and he is the molder, And his grace is sweeter every moment I grow older
There is only one way to see things... with an open mind and heart There is only one way to feel things... with an open mind and heart There is only one way to listen... with an open mind and heart There is only one way to live... with an open mind and heart There is only one way to love... with an open mind and soul © Christine A Kysely All Rights Reserved (December 12th, 2011 Wausau, Wisconsin USA)
Alone in the desert sand, you touched this spirit. Continued twisted path, show views of your shade; Gives strength to weak heart and cavalry's feelings of light. You're the life's glory of true fame, my home, my path... Without you I'm scattered in a wasteland. Your mighty shadow gives energy to this spirit; And my soul proclaims your live colors of truth... My whole being is virtuous for your light is on me. My vision of your sublimity brings me hope... Without you I'm scattered in a wasteland. Orchids abound in the orchard of my life... Rainbows on waterfall enchant my soul's eyes; The ocean sings to me, and I feel your strength. You're all to me, kind voice... holy guide of my soul... Without you I'm scattered in a wasteland.
"I Want You - My Reply" I want you to stay and show me your face, I want you to go out and lose your shell for me. Tell me what my hug means to you Tell me what you think when I kiss you. 'Coz I want you, I need you and won't make you unhappy just like before. 'Coz I love you, I tell you Don't think you're not good enough for me. I am your fantasy I'm not letting you fall apart When we talk I can see I can feel, you are interesting. When you say that you love me and tell me almost everything I will not break your heart that's a guarantee. 'Coz I want you, I need you and won't make you unhappy just like before. 'Coz I love you, I tell you Never think you're not good eough for me. You can tell me all your dreams I will understand You must open up to me If you will, I'll never misunderstood. 'Coz I want you, I need you and won't make you unhappy just like before. 'Coz I love you, I tell you You are just good enough for me.

Inanimate emotion, of insufficient funds, A stanza full of metaphors, and metaphorical puns Living life holding a pen, an eraser is the only one to forgive, A combination of lyrical rhymes, but where does it end? Or does it end? Maybe the end is where it begins, a vicious cycle, it's uncontrollable, like death dephying winds, Where death and lying wins, and life on this planet doesn't exist, So our imaginations are forced to pretend, that the elements around us are our friends But I see things differently, I'm just a pathetic, Prophetic kid, living in a notebook, trying to comprehend, How to stay poetic, but it isn't what it seems It's strange how closely my nightmares relate to my dreams I've never done anything right, my whole life I've been living wrong, Writing has always been my solution, it's a never ending hall I'm externally torn, internally my soul has been reborn My waredrobe is new, I got rid of the clothes that I wore I'm untouchable, I'm nothing though, and I'll tell my story through The Way That I Flow
Attempts at alteration of My right to fully express My own ideas and views My liberty to address Declarations and ideas I happen to find crude Imposing upon my spirit And all too often rude Formulation of my thoughts On many different things Echoes of imagination Remnants of my being Clear my views do remain Unscathed by opposition I firmly and relentlessly Defend my true position I do believe in liberty To share what one believes For a spirit and its speech Forever should be free ~Camille Rose Castillo 2010
To Bethlehem a virgin came-- A pilgrim and a stranger, 'Twas here she bore a baby boy, And laid Him in a manger. While shepherds watched their flocks by night, In nearby fields abiding, A host of the Heaven's angels came, To sing the wondrous tidings. The wise men followed, long and far, God's guiding star before them. They knelt before the newborn king To worship and adore Him. Mary's baby, sweet and mild, The long awaited Christ child. She called his name Immanuel-- God is with us; all is well.
Written October 7, 2012 My soul burns inside And it comes comes out to hide When its so shocked to hear That the darkness is here Would you believe in the words that I say Even if they aren't diamonds and pearls With a paper in front and a pen in my hand I just want to change the world Is it too much to ask Too abstract to grasp This idea that's been running I promise there's good change coming With a bullet and a gun You'll get any man to run But it takes diplomacy To get a real man to see Would you believe in the words that I say Even if they aren't diamonds and pearls With a paper in front and a pen in my hand I could really change the world Is it too hard to be The man I want to see When I look in the mirror Lord I pray it was clearer With a permanent marker I color in darker The world that I see Ain't what it should be Would you believe in the words that I say Even if they aren't diamonds and pearls With a paper in front and a pen in my hand I am going to change the world
We might not be rich we might not be poor Happy with what we have but we ask for more Nothing too expensive nothing too cheap Something for our pockets so we can get some sleep We need food on our table and gas in our car What we have in the bank won't get us very far Having each other that's what counts Clipping coupons and getting discounts Lighting a few candles instead of the lights Not having a heater on those very cold nights Better days are coming just wait and see I promise you that my family
Through the ups and downs, the ins and outs As life encompasses me I face trials and hurts, betrayals and doubts But my heart rejoices in Thee Though some problems can seem so triumphant There are times when there's nowhere to flee But I know that Your Light will always shine through And my heart does rejoice in Thee Through tears and pain; through heartaches and fear Though darkness may be all we see If Hell itself were to rise up to fight Still - my heart would rejoice in Thee For You suffered and bled; You took away our sins And You did this so we could be free It was the vision of joy that was set before You Now my heart rejoices with Thee For I know in my heart - You will always be there Whatever the matter may be Your Love does abound - and It never fails So my heart will rejoice in Thee Out of all the sounds in Nature heard And the kingdoms on Earth that be - I have heard no sound that is near as sweet As my heart rejoicing with Thee!
I can love you like a butterfly be so soft as a gentle breeze cause I'm not threatened by a tone or criticism's contagious disease I grieve for you like an orphan a child scared and oh so afraid You lash out into the darkness my tongue will remain stayed Long ago you saw the beauty your spirit carried on wings Loved to ponder life's essence sought peace above all things But difficulty arose one day remember your fateful choice To be blinded by circumstance sadly lose your lover's voice Now with words you seek to hurt but that sword has no effect on me Because once I was the blind man that blindness took me to Calvary Between you and me hung Jesus On my cross I finally saw the light I'm forgiven.. Easter is coming I now can love instead of fight! *Dedicated to all the crazy uncles at the family reunion. About the Poem: Thoughts from the recently forgiven thief on a cross about the other thief on a cross (still blinded by his sin), as they hung dying with Jesus between them. When you've been truly forgiven, criticisms can never again harm you, so let it go! THE BUTTERFLY SET FREE NEVER AGAIN LONGS FOR THE COCOON! Just a thought that might be useful here in the Soup.. 4-20-14

Where are all the people? There is always something to be scared of. I just wished everyone will please stop fighting, And listen to everyone sing. Everyone needs a little love. Some people need the shove, The confidence to show people what you're made of. People won't you listen? Hearing things like, Maybe you should kill yourself. Instead of asking for a little help. See all these people crying? They need to all start flying. I wish everyone will please stop fighting, And let the people sing. If you need someone to talk to, Let's be right here for you. If you need a shoulder to cry on, We'll sit and try a little flan. We need to stop and think of all the uncommon people. Think of all of them you don't know. The ones who don't like to show. The ones that'll really glow. People won't you listen? Hearing things like, Maybe you should kill yourself. Instead of asking for a little help. See all these people crying? They need to all start flying. I wish everyone will please stop fighting, And let the people sing. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- INCOMPLETE
Breaking through the darkest night, suffering no more My dreams are of a deeper place, everything adored Everything alive, now there's no such thing as death Eternity accounted for within a single breath Walking through an open door, leaving thoughts behind I drift beyond the maddening love I couldn't find Nothing is forgotten, but I can forgive it all So much truth ahead of me, even if I fall Flying through the brightest sky, absorbing every sight Reflections made of paper-thin paintings of the night A thousand words for every scene, changing them to day The poetry I leave behind will always keep me safe Shifting through to higher realms, its beauty washing clean The ways in which I never could hold my self-esteem Perspective of the infinite through knowledge I have found I trust this deeper wisdom to translate all sight and sound Awakening the visions that have always pulled me near Rebirth to every corpse of truth in a world dying from fear An energy envelopes us that asks for our hearts Discovering that there is more to us was way back at the start
Through roaming hills, and blistering winds my spirit lay somewhere between. Oh someone point him out to me, I desire to hear my soul sing For at first he left, I did not notice my emotions to mangled in muck but I feel my heart fall short and my body just want to give up I call to him through the wind in the night but no reply is heard in the breeze. I shout his name from dawn to dusk But only a echo replies in the trees Forgive me! I cry, I desire you now that my heart is darken and numb. For I gladly give up this emotionless feast to live my life wondering the streets forsaking the world and all of its treats to live with my spirit as a bum
I'm new internally…. If you cut me I will bleed, But I'm new true indeed. Created by my maturity, I will prosper with security And all my dreams will come true; because I am new…. No longer playing silly games No longer fantasize No longer playing silly games No longer compromise During the day I feel the same, pray I won't go insane Clouds have given me thunderous rain, but I walk with open eyes. Aware God has me clear in sight…..I no longer run, I stand, I fight. And when there are no stars at night. My vision still sees a beautiful sight. Because I'm New.
After the Casket Falls After your soul is called After your final breathe is drawn I'll meet you again After the Casket Falls After your soul is called After your final breathe is drawn I'll meet you again After the Casket Falls After your soul is called After your final breathe is drawn I'll meet you again I'll See your face again I swear it No matter how far away they take you from me Fading, Going Away, Don't be so afraid Death is a Dream The Cross Will Be lighter Whisper the words so sacred, so somber After the Casket Falls After your soul is called After your final breathe is drawn I'll meet you again After the Casket Falls After your soul is called After your final breathe is drawn I'll meet you again After the Casket Falls After your soul is called After your final breathe is drawn I'll meet you again A Fallen Angel looms over the lifeless stone What Happened here must be true I must live this life without you Breaking the Silence She began to Weep The Epitaph ceasing to know We all must Return To Dust After the Casket Falls After your soul is called After your final breathe is drawn I'll meet you again After the Casket Falls After your soul is called After your final breathe is drawn I'll meet you again After the Casket Falls After your soul is called After your final breathe is drawn I'll meet you again The solitude is euphoric as an illusional clock Of argentine fears swallow the last soul Goodnight black rose of eternity Goodnight dearest gothic phantom Tonight The Earth consumes me **Special Thanks To My Writing Partner Cayla Carr**
The lyrics of our conscience United in our wars The golden words are spilling When our truth has been ignored The dark ignites our passions And death will grant us life Where fallen statues crumble The earth reclaims our lies A future heading backwards Can strangle every dream But this inner conflict saves us As we remember why we breathe Silent is the city That screaming voices carve And enlightened is the child That hears much more when it gets dark Our fears have lead to glory All darkness turned to light And everything that broke us Has our sympathy tonight
God is perfect in all things he creates shining his love from the very first day The sun and the moon he set up high they pour light to be our guide Gods light he puts in my heart without him I wouldn't feel whole When he returns all see his face gleam bright coming to carry us to our home on high I can only imagine what heaven will be the glorious colors, lights, and souls to meet Sun and moon no more needed The Almighty and Jesus Christ is the glow that will be Carrie Cheek
I've been beat up I've been knocked down No matter what happens I'm still standing on solid ground I've been passed over I've been stepped on No matter what happens I still have faith I continue to stand tall and strong I've been lifted up only to let down No matter what happens I don't stand alone Jesus is standing with me I see His footprints next to mine He is the reason why I'm still standing strong and proud Rosalyn
[A tribute I wrote/rapped after I graduated high school] i took a bittersweet look into the past flipping it and watching each grain fall back down that hourglass wish this hour could last, but what's a little sand? just a piece of dust falling through the cracks in my hand but matrimony bonds memories with eternity and the passion i had for my comrades still burns in me but it's my turn to fade out, like the first tags i put up on walls bearing witness to styles getting played out i spent three years in this one spot just to be forgot? along with chemistry study sheets, just shut and locked in that box that was like a home away from home where an apparent wealth of knowledge was bound to be grown... with closed eyes, lids like mirrors envision my soul, my mind so divine was each one of you that walked into my life i got love for you even if we might not talk anymore, you inspired me to explore so i guess this one's for you cuz i met a lot of false characters, but y'all stayed true and that's more than a guy could ask for, honestly respect given from me only comes modestly because respectable people are somewhat of a novelty in this life, travelling throught it like the odyssey i'm just a nomad with a notepad, a quote "grad" an alum from some fantasty in the midst of an era so sad but to friends who still have dreams, quench your thirst to succeed never let laymen corrupt that seed let it blossom with the efforvescence i know it takes effort but isnt that the essence? gotta give blessings to brothers who imparted the wisdom and found the courage to release the truth from within them i cherish your thoughts, and with them i'm never lost keep your words locked and that's something i'll never cross if this sounds pretentious, i'm sorry dude but i was told that a faithful heart makes wishes come true so i feel a last little push from me couldn't hurt here you go my friends, and i truly hope it works until we meet again, it's really been a blast always remember the times we had, hourglass.
this winter brought over the city a fine and cold rain thunder through the quarrel corners hatred seeds on the fronts the uninvited's apple chopped by the chatterbox tongue thread for the treasures'seekers the dragon has killed the cranes and the mandarine ducks are mere glass nicknacks in a junk shop window hungry for the sun the seagulls peck the rays thrown on the window panes carnival costumes are walking as the music of a gramophone on the leaves'skeletons synthetic peacock feathers sprangles masks mandolines and flutes shaddows on a mythless coin the morning star-on top of the steeple reads the holy books masses on water circles wake up the sparrows in the ice castles untouched by sympathy stays knelt in the battle spittle the warriors(in wierd clothes:outside males,inside females) fascinated by death * the little boys and girls –they do not know what they are-maybe sparrows others think they are stags most of them are sure they are warriors the only child destined to the pain from his stone tower watches how the night struggles to wrest the time its identity (translated by Margareta Mioc )
I recall now the days when forever seemed but a short time The visits to the hospital, brought sad images to your mind She lay on a bed, cords all around her, no hair upon her head The cancer drove us crazy with worry tears and fright She was only a baby, I didn't get the chance to say goodbye Farewell until we meet again where you'll be waiting... waiting for tomorrow to come again. What if tomorrow never comes? How will I face the rising sun, when the moon is the only thing I can see? I need her here with me... The only loss I've ever known The only time that I've experienced this kind of sorrow... So what if tomorrow never comes? What if tomorrow never comes. And now I lie here thinking it through, memories flash through my head, memories of you Moments of a bittersweet time Reminiscing the days when you were mine The days when you were alive The tears come back to my eyes I feel the need to cry but nothing slides out I need to scream and shout, My emotions pour out as one, silently So what if tomorrow never comes? Reality in death is so hard to accept, I need my tomorrow to come... What if it never does? What if tomorrow never comes? How will I face the rising sun, when the moon is the only thing I can see? I need her here with me... The only loss I've ever known The only time that I've experienced this kind of sorrow... So what if tomorrow never comes? What if tomorrow never comes. Will tomorrow ever come? I just want to be awake when the moon becomes the sun I'm waiting here for you, in the darkness of the night. I wait still for you, forever the images will haunt my mind Tomorrow will come I'll soon be alright Tomorrow will come... Tomorrow has come... I can now see the sun.
Don't let yourself start thinking That darkness is all you are You feel trapped without with colour You don't want to feel these scars Open up the windows Let in the light Free yourself from darkness Brighten up the night In this world of colour There's always a hidden darkness Black and white and grey Take their chance to come and play But in this world with darkness The colour will shine through It will bring out the colourful in you Yes it will bring out the colourful in you Don't let yourself start thinking You aren't worthy of the light You listen too much to others Who speak purely out of spite Don't trap yourself in the dark You will only get cold Its time to stop hearing All that you've been told In this world of colour There's always a hidden darkness Black and white and grey Take their chance to come and play But in this world with darkness The colour will shine through It will bring out the colourful in you Yes it will bring out the colourful in you
My eyes Witness your departure My eyes Are dripping with hopelessness… My eyes start to blur… Melancholy put me under pressure… Is there a cure to my disease? You don't see The shards of hope that once brought us back together Just let me search for safety I'm strong enough to realize that I'm no longer The weakest prey out there… And I'm left in my solitude… Do you hear me whimpering like a distraught puppy left on the train tracks? I'm close to my demise…save me and take me home Nourish me…and be my beloved friend Will this friendship last forever? Hopefully it has no end Will this cheerful moment help us get along with each other? Because of you…I feel the need to run I keep an eye on you – I worry that you'll hurt yourself again Because of you…My freedom is nearly gone I don't wanna be caught off guard again Because of you…EYE can't picture a solution for our vexing dilemma Because of you…eye can't focus on my long-term goal And I'm left in my solitude… Do you sense that I'm giving in to failure? And I'm close to my demise… Only to find myself disappear…I can't endure The hardships that you place upon me… Could you boost up my confidence to overcome My atrocious anxiety? I'm just waiting for some sun To keep me in good hands… To strengthen me with perseverance … I'm just waiting until His son Leads the world outtah Egypt and reveals to us… His radiance…His dazzling Kingdom – Vibrant with glee Your undying sympathy dawns upon us I'm overflowing with indescribable joy You're a candle in the night… We meet eye to eye… What a sight…what a precious sight
It's Destiny It's destiny, the trials the stormy weather All the misery getting lost and feeling better The good, the evil, all those pains and joys They're life, they're part of every girl and boy. Coincidence, it happens all the time All those accidents all those good deeds and the crimes They be a part of just the way it is We've not much power when it comes to this Like matchstick one be drifting On a wild and stormy sea As those waves like you be shifting Well it's your destiny So melt like salt that thrown into the brine Surrender to that ocean you'll be fine. Hey ecstasy it's now it's always here And eternity, it's you, it seems so clear You're being called to rise up from the dead And head for those good places, you'll be lead.
God allows some nettles among our flowers, And as we encounter these days of frown. From the far horizon, a confluence of showers, To retain life's garden from remaining brown. Periodically we see our vitality shattered, As eternal sleep beckons those we love. We clutch God's hand as days are tattered, Thistles fixate vision on the throne above. As we yank at nettles we find seed scatter, We cultivate and dress our flowers with dung. The lesson, if learned, only Grace will matter, Not our slight of hand or glibness of tongue. On sunny days when universe seems bright, God discerns we're once more at our best. Exposed thistles disappear amid God's light, And He awaits to assist in our next life test.
She came to me - becharming was an' fair; resound of church bells call - remote Sunday; angelical her face in streams of air; she fled into my nothingness of gray.. She fled towards the gray - transformed to drops; above the fields accepted were her clouds; Amid the dusky shadows of tree tops, Imparted lives, my aloneness' Styx shrouds; Lone arbiter of my arcanum bride, my sentiments ascended - to orbit, a quilt of nimbus covered me and cried, my life became a flight - winds' chorded ambit! She stared at me from yonder stills, merry; Unreal she reached my soul but was lifeless; The trumps of Angels played in notes airy, her bridal offered pure affableness; In Acheronian lakes I loved her gleam; her thousand tears of rain, arcanum song; she fled above the cumulus to deem, and crown noctilucent my waxed lifelong. © 02-16-2012, G.

Love's Lofty Height by Ingrid Showalter Swift A lofty height A soft kiss sweet butter lips and the scruff O lament at the wall of tears with me ... Take not the hand of sweet liberty O my sweet earnest soul…be still and vacuous as the sea as it glows ………..it takes no hostage with intent Be glad as the bee as it goes Pollen is its heart's content Be wild as the leaves on the trees ripping and dipping flying and soaring and beneath it all as snow coated ice field ….be still my beloved love Know the peace of grass of the stone on the side of a hill feel the movement in the feathers of a hawk as they flicker through the dive of air Be as the cloud sees the world up and down and in and out it goes and asks not for understanding of all it sees Be as the crumpled piece of paper with words that might have changed the world a ball sitting at the bottom of the ash can with the chewed gum that does not argue that it be taken Be as the birth of a fawn in the wilderness asking nothing but to stand for the first time and quiver a new Be new in you …my beloved because you having given birth to us... have set me free
See the hope of tomorrow This is the star that lights the way Together we will change the future A brave new world, a brand new day Through the fire one mans vision Will touch the soul and set you free Just turn your faces to the heavens It's burning bright for all to see Golden Star (Repeat x4) Our journey now is just beginning A dream awaits on distant shores Fill your heart with new conviction Let's build a world worth fighting for Golden Star (Repeat x4)
"God Made the World" is a children's song, sung to the tune of "Row, Row, Row Your Boat". God made, made, made the world- He made it in six days. He made people and plants and animals, too, And we should give Him praise! Bonus activities: Help children look up and read Genesis 1:1-31 in a bible, which tells the story of creation. Have children think of three favorite plants, flowers or trees, three favorite animals and three favorite people and say or write down their answers. Remind them that God created their "favorite things".
Press me in Turn me out Fill me up with doubt I'm a blank slate here You can write it in clear Who you think I am What I'm all about One word can tear my walls down And one chance can turn my fate around A moment can take you away Take you to a better day It's all by chance So I think I'll roll the die Pray I may advance Cause I'm just getting by Truth is I don't know what I'm doing here I'm not seeing anything clear It all goes dark and I lose my sight I know it's time to stand and fight Cause when all that mattered is lost And the monsters steal your will You've got to count the cost And just shoot to kill
You, you son…you are my inspiration When I grow up, my dream is to be as you It's funny like that…I try teaching you so much But constantly find myself learning from you You taught me unconditional love and adoration Unconditionally you have loved me with my flaws and then some Instead of looking down on me, you look up to me Instead of yelling at me (and you better not ever), you talk to me Instead of fighting with me, you share with me Instead of criticizing me, you believe in me That is why I want to be like you …you inspire me! You, you son…you are my inspiration The one constant of positive energy that fuels my soul You are the brightest star on the darkest of nights leading me to the gold You, you are that gold…that treasure…that eternal flame Igniting an inspirational fuse with every speak of our name You make me a better role model, a better man and a better dad You are me son and I am you this is the relationship we have I promise to be there for you always, no matter the circumstances or needs You inspire me! You are that special something that wakes me from the deepest of sleeps You are my 365 ½ days and every day of my 52 weeks You inspire me! You are the wind beneath my wings, so I will glide forever You are Des Juan, I am Des Juan, we are Des Juan — always together You inspire me!
Just kept running, From men so cunning, Just kept leaving, All those who were deceiving, Just kept packing, Then, lost it all for a price, Realized I no longer had to be the sacrifice. Seen so many faces, Been in strange places, Cried with the sinners, Rejoiced with the saints, Yet, I'm still in need of fresh paint, You're never finished and you never arrive, Yet so much time is spent on feeding one's drive, Even at the top emptiness will return, It's only by God's grace we ever seem to learn. Seen so many faces, Been in strange places, Cried with the sinners, Rejoiced with the saints, Yet, I'm still in need of fresh paint, Only a true artist can recreate over the taints One who is greater than the sinner and the saints.

Chains, how I hate their sound. Day in and day out, they clink, they keep me bound. Lies, that's what put me here. They said it was better in this place, to be my own person, 'Who needs grace?' Darkness, the absence of light. Who knows how long I've been here? It's always night... What is that? That sound... A song in this black. It's beauty is indescribable, nothing does it lack. My eyes! I'm blind, the brightness envelops me. It's been so long, how can I remember the last time I could see? He speaks like thunder, this Midnight Sun. 'Get up, child' He says, 'Your battle's already been won.'
Abort is not the key It will have you feeling less Nothing but pain and regrets Abort is not the key She or He is apart of you Forget the other half As they get older you will have the last laugh Children bring nothing but blessings if you do right by them Forget him You will succeed It's your body and your seed Abort is not the key
When I saw you the other day- The following is what I wanted to say. This may sound a little absurd. However, you are the reason why I write these words. If you find them to be of any quality - Exalt yourself. You are the one who inspires me. I am just paying tribute, and showing gratitude. Never ever have I beheld beauty of such magnitude. Long ago, I spotted you from afar. Long ago, I esteemed and deemed you brightest star. I know all this may come as some surprise. However, plain and simply you are the apple of eyes.

Many times I've longed to give up when tribulations did corrupt my life when I was young But then you told me I would be unworthy of your only son So from that day on I traveled along that old yet rarely used path And I was surprised to see that for centuries, people started out here then suddenly turned back And by and by I began to understand why they left this dark and perilous road For what lies ahead, more problems more dread, was only for God to know Yes the path is scary but I need not tarry, for I desire to see what's in store for me And as I look about, I see the many mouths of the wolves snapping at my feet It was a horrific sound, but I stood my ground just as Jesus told me I should They gnashed their teeth and their eyes burned holes through me, yet they dared not move an inch from where they stood It didn't dawn on me what held fast their feet until I felt the presence of his comforting rod And before I was overcome with fear, He whispered in my ear saying I am your protection and your Lord your God And on and on as I travel along that old yet rarely used path Many years the Devil hath preyed on my fears and tempted me to turn around and go back He told me how silly I was to fall so many times and still haven't had enough And I said take thee leave for I know that surely God only count those times I got up I had passed many tests with complaints from the flesh, which time and time I had to abate But I had made a vow and no matter how or what I had to do, that promise I will not break I told you Lord that I will give of me wholeheartedly and accept my persecution for your name's sake And though at times I may cry my steadfast spirit will not die as long as I know you're worth the wait And while I wait for that day I'll offer up my praise just as the trees and the mountains do And with your help I will forsake myself to take up my cross to follow you And I will continue your way until I hear you say that I am to be no more For I've pleased the Lord's son for having done what I was indeed brought here for Until you appear and take up your dear ones to the King's dwelling place I'll tell those with ears to repent for the judgment is near as I ponder when I will see your face And on and on I will continue to travel along that old yet rarely used path And though I may not know where my feet are to go, as long as you're leading me, I'll never turn back
Warm and lost. Oceans of selfish freedom. See you, see me, longing for a bliss filled warm embrace. I feel you as I float by. Calm, safe, alone and free. Are you my Island? Letting go. I move in to your flow, a salty surge, a rush, a wave. I wave, a smile. I fall. Love. Be so brave. Lovers soul is found. Love is lost. I crave, I crave that smile, the wave that melts. I swim. Angels and Gods guide a rebels mile. Colourless sight, colourful night, into your arms I melt, engulfed by pure white light.
Baby lets take that drive today. Its the right time to get away. Lets go to that same old spot that we both know so well. Its there. The sun is always warm and nice. And the river runs so cool, always flowing thru our minds. Love is in the air tonight. This time, this time that we share. Being here, being here without a care. Love is in the air tonight. When we're here we feel free. So plentiful, just you and me. We know its here for sure. We'll make love all thru the night. Love is in the air tonight. Holding hands below the stars. Below the stars, we begin to dance. And we'll dance all thru the night. Love is in the air tonight. We'll sleep all day, just to wake all night. To wake and love and dance. Under stars again, love in the air to share. Another night again, always hand and hand. Love is in the air tonight.

Oh how can one capture Your beauty on paper Without you evaporating Off as it is your nature The stars are your jewels The moon is your crest Everyone drools As if blessed Your silence is serenity That whisper to my thoughts An overwhelming beauty That ties my stomach up in knots How humble I am sound A beauty incomparable With a radiance so profound Your absence is unbearable
"There must be some kinda way to find out here" Said the seeker to the stealer "There's too much confusion I'm struggling to be the reveal" "Conglomerate men, they drink my wine Politicians dig my earth None will level on the line Because none of them are worth it" hey "There is reason to get excited" The seeker, he kindly spoke "There are many here among us Who feel our governments a joke" "Now you and I, we've lived through this And this is not our fate So let us not talk falsely now The hour is getting late", hey Hey All along the watchtower Liars kept the view While all the women came and went Barefoot servants too Outside in the cold distance The C.I.A. did growl Two riders were approaching And the wind began to howl, hey All along the watchtower All along the watchtower All along the watchtower on that tragic September day We need some investigation, for someones has to pay Now you and I, we've lived through this, and this is not our fate So let us not talk falsely now, before this generations to late We will always remember, and remember who we lost that day We need some investigation, for someone has to pay All along the watchtower, a nation in mournful cries We are not so blind, it's amazing what you can see when you close your eyes All along the watchtower All along the watchtower James, we lost you in Kensington, England. The Star Spangled Banner will live long in your past. I can't say the same for some of your American so called country people. Thank you for allowing me to gracefully use . . . . 'All Along the Watchtower' it's blatantly obvious someone was not. To all the lost in the 9/11 tragedy, my thoughts will always be with you. All Along The Watchtower by Jimi Hendrix, with some lyrics changed
I strolled through my old stomping grounds saw a childhood friend gave him a hug and a pound over two beers we sat down dam its been so long since we crossed paths flashbacks they brought both tears and laughs we poured beer on the grass for our peers that passed that's the way we show sorrow teardrops from a bottle it's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday but ironically for some its even worse to face tomorrow when it's filled with hopelessness and dreams deferred at times the line between good and bad became blurred life moves in cycles I observe this truth watching these young cats re-enact scenes from my youth as the clash with the system and dare the world to dis them until they go to prison or become homicide victims i borrow some ears trying to insert something healthy but I recognize that look. its the same one I use to give the ones that tried to tell me I just wouldn't listen now he's given me that same resistance its a shame that ignorance makes us flee from knowledge wont accept WhATS harmless content when we're acting moronic or spewing garbage isn't it ironic we crave money to save us in actuality its the very thing that enslaves us its like the streets are the new plantation a generation lost produces lost generations with lack of love and over abundance of anger causes agents of death to leap from barrels once released from chambers has the worl gone crazy mother in the church screaming thats my baby lord take me makes we wanna holler,kick or yell or something cause they don't understand I'm simply trying to tell them something
Falling falling falling fast, Spiraling out of the past, Spinning around in the rain, Washing away all old pain. White feathers in the sky, All these feelings flashing by. Stealthy glances, Blushing cheeks, Weaving about our techniques. Changing paths, Switching seats, Hushing hushing loud heartbeats. A door to the left, And a door to the right, Jumping out the window, We decide to take flight. But then, we fall, Just as leaves do. And its true, so true, You cant deny some laws. But as we land, We take off on wolf paws.
CHILDREN As expressions go, some obsolete Taken for granted, often weak A closer look, beneath the hood Lies hidden truth not understood Children, our future, it's often heard A common notion, but how absurd For children grow, become full grown Where are these fruits of seeds they've grown? Mistakes were made along the way Mistakes of old and yesterday Followed footsteps, no changes made Trusting that they make the grade Aged thoughts I beckon thee Like waves returning to the sea Give way to change, release your hold Let reason shine and truth be told The future's now, no time to yield To future minds whose fate is sealed Like brittle branches on winter trees The outcome certain you might agree
A Million Things By Nate Spears Published 2013 in "Death OF A Rose" By Nate Spears A million things on our mind Then senseless arrives Worthless deprives Drama provides; but still we find a way to remain focused and accomplish.
[The Cypress Is In Bloom] The cypress is in bloom I see the evil, the efflorescence of decadent doom Eloigning, with thy clandestines of the Dead September's reign My belovéd Penelope, abscond from the coven so deep, the glades of misery We must face her in the grove, for arcany, the path we must take She's in my mind, vaporously, Lauding with my, dangers and fears Lie, with ephermelcy's broken truths Leading me go Cypress, Marigold Immortally, willows, forevermore Forevermore [To Question; To Know] My argentine silence, your only condonicy Ends with such eath The Mockingbird in me--died Resting in one ounce, an abundance of shame With an infinity of joy Exiled, by the ones, who give all, names My breath starves for only more The façade, the veil, the austerity dims with Aquarianlore She falls to her knees, why for? Celandine she will be Celandine is she [Bead] The lair within, free from their causalities of their sins Shadowy primroses begin to grow, the season will never end In there I dream to be like you, violet blue, White Flower of Lisieux, La Fleur Blanche du Lisieux, So Celandine are you Celandine are you [Draconian] Draconian--Reach for the shadows within Draconian--Break from The Fallen's Sin Draconian--Their Empirical lies, only die Draconian--Reach The Shadows Within
Butterflies quietly fluttering In my soul Transforming my life Morphing into something so unreal So Different, silently beautiful So hidden and lost A fire dances on my pale iced face Lively prancing as each sheds more light The embers glow in your singed shadow Was this eternity meant to last forever? I couldn't believe that a simple flap of butterfly wings could cause such a storm, a storm in my mind The simplest things causing the greatest of pains Why cant I be one of them Forever and free I'll be with my dream of liberty Punishing the dead Can you never let anything go Is it all to hard to see That your bias takes you on a blinded delusion Where all they plunder is hate Terror is a virtue When becoming a king So cut off the strings of my life With your power And you will see the strength of the dream of Liberty I couldn't believe that a simple flap of butterfly wings could cause such a storm, a storm in my mind The simplest things causing the greatest of pains Why cant I be one of them Forever and free I'll be with my dream of liberty I couldn't believe that a simple flap of butterfly wings could cause such a storm, a storm in my mind The simplest things causing the greatest of pains Why cant I be one of them Forever and free I'll be with my dream of liberty
Innocent dove of the flame What we cannot see but what we rely on If only there was you and I Enchanted forever without hope we shall be So come rescue me in the dark of the night Only you can save me For only you can show me the light I always knew you would be there to guide me evermore a spirited angel eternally beautiful always beside me I pray to you Can't you see I'm suffering Fly over me and grant me With your presence Your everlasting grace A hope I can keep sacred Sophia I can see you in the dim light my immaculate guide throughout this eternal night Sophia I can see you shining through the dark Changing my ravenheart Sophia my dear This life without you is what I fear Sophia I can see you in the dim light my immaculate guide throughout this eternal night Sophia I can see you shining through the dark Changing my ravenheart Sophia my dear this life without you is what I fear Remember the days when I was so weak Quick to turn with no allegiance I could pledge So easily I could break Using a dream to washout the nightmares Why didn't I turn to you Come enter my roof Once my soul beckons the most Give me a gnosis so grand I find safety in the truth And of the knowledge you bring And the wisdom you are In another life I called you sophia Sophia I can see you in the dim light my immaculate guide throughout this eternal night Sophia I can see you shining through the dark Changing my ravenheart Sophia my dear This life without you is what I fear Sophia I can see you in the dim light my immaculate guide throughout this eternal night Sophia I can see you shining through the dark Changing my ravenheart Sophia my dear this life without you is what I fear Safeguard to know Wherever my heart goes As long as I'm with you I know this is true For whatever our souls know Till we grow old If we truly find it right, sacred, and just Truth will always follow Sophia I can see you in the dim light my immaculate guide throughout this eternal night Sophia I can see you shining through the dark Changing my ravenheart Sophia my dear This life without you is what I fear Sophia I can see you in the dim light my immaculate guide throughout this eternal night Sophia I can see you shining through the dark Changing my ravenheart Sophia my dear this life without you is what I fear
Yester year grievous brought events mischevious, fulfilling fate malicious: my worst fears, my nightmares vicious; I was oblivious to how cruel life can be. I suffered soul turned cold, heart in flames, my existence- all in vain. I withstood all that came and still waited: come what may. My heart burned, my soul froze my ego died. I awoke coming to life: damaged, yet emotionally indestructible. No pain is painful nowadays, no trouble would bother me, no emotion may hurt; The sacrifice was cruel, yet it became fuel for my new life.
He was an enigma, a true one. His followers see him as religious. Few people say he was a philosopher. Some say he was a prophet. Many prefer to call him a soothsayer. Yet, others call him a political analyst. He was all these and many more. He was not only a musician, but one with a difference. Stating his opinions in music form. Proffering solutions with his songs. Reaching out to everyone with his lyrics. He was and still is a role model. One of only a kind. If only we had more of him. If only they had listened to him. Things would have been different. But they didn't and things remained. Fela for many is still what he was. Eba mi eda is gone but he still lives, very much in the lives of his admirers.
I look to a new day within myself with positive insights on life with dreams of being better. Self-improvement needed for my own soul for my heart to say, it can't do it anymore. I refuse to be blinded by negative and vindictive people proving they cannot change. You have your way & I have mine, time will tell not in the eyes of men or women but in your own personal vindications. If I must walk alone on my chosen path, then so be it. I've been torn down & broken until I feel the pressure & pain. Not a pain that can be felt within my heart, my soul, & mind. Though a pain that pushes me forward with goals of being great. A better man. I'm fighting for myself because I know who I am, without anyone judging me. As long as I can breathe & the sun rise I will make it. If I have to crawl so be it. I'm not trying to win I'm trying to finish. My struggles & the people do not cripple me. Believe what you see or what people say but I trust God & my heart that will beat strong long after I'm gone. You thinking that I'm wrong then you don't know me. You never tried. You never felt the pain I've felt inside. To understand why & who I am. I'm just trying to do my best & to be a better man.
It is never meant for the sincerest of hearts to break, The strongest of souls to suffer, Or the deepest of lakes to dry... We as sheep of God are promised the best of things, Wealth beyond the sun, Or sights that bring tears to the most pleasant eye.. So why get down in despair ?, Thinking.. Damn the world cause nobody else will ever care. Why get down in distress ? Seeing as it is, We in a "White Man's World", Which means they want us to settle for the lesser of the less. Keep your head up brother, Stay strong now sister, For we all are to keep faith and perserverance with us. Smile when you see the moon, Rejoice when the sun shines, Forever keep God in your heart and in mind... Never fall victim to doubts and losses, Decisions that you thought were costless, Or the evil thought from voices.. Press on and never be scared of tomorrow, Don't Be Scared... Cause there is Heaven Somewhere....
Looking at me Deep in me I feel a soft whisper It seems to be beckoning me I glimpse it, but it don't ever linger It just gives me these glimpses endlessly Yet always I know that it be with me I have known it since that time eternity And I know I'll keep on looking Forever, and forever For that sweet little whisper of me There is nothing can be said about it Every explanation will be wrong Cause words they have no power to convey it Though often it is felt within a song I know that I'll be doing it forever I'll always be looking at me I don't need to ask the questions Just have to look, that's all Keep asking 'Am I her so endlessly. I'm looking, I'm looking, hey, I'm looking There is no way to stop this carry on It seems that I'll be looking Looking, looking, looking It's the only way to bid the fear 'be gone!' I swear to you I cannot understand it And yet this fact don't bother me at all I just keep looking like a mad man I don't care If, I'm wise or just a fool 'Am I here, am I here' I keep on saying And always with this question I will be I'm going to look, and look, and keep looking Every day you'll find me looking at me. Another dedication to John Sherman..
A beautiful friend of mine said to me, "Children, the elderly, bugs And the most unwanted Are the people I attract." I told her That the most unwanted wants the most wanted. Bugs are attracted to light, And the elderly seek A fountain of youth. Children look up to those Who are big in heart, And even the beautiful Want to be complimented With more beauty. So, this was her appeal Which would attract The whole world to her, Even the most wanted.
Introduction: Wonders of the lights, the meditative aurora of the world... In silenced sleepless nights They draw me close to them, Through visionary lands and sights Of unfulfilled needs, the worldly fame, Towards a realm without immorality The immortality of kindness, The poignant poise of sympathy Lives be in them, placidness. Airy lands of the skies The soundless voice of paradise, The symbol peace of serenity Let it be released - Tranquility.
I must hold on to the idea of goodness in the world For it is the only thing keeping me out of the abyss There are those who would love to see me fall But my heart and my hands hold my destiny It is not for others to decide my fate It is up to me To hold on © Christine A Kysely All Rights Reserved (December 12th, 2011 Wausau, Wisconsin USA)
Feburary 27th 2012 i lost the most important person in my life. Helen I was at a goodwill, when i prayed to her that i would find a metallica shirt. I was then looking through the shirts and found two metallica shirts. I got them both. i started wondering if it was her, if she answered my prayer. A few days later i had a dream. She was standing in the window yelling down at me telling me she bought me something and it was on her bed in a bag. i told her how much i missed her and i went to go see what it was. i open the bag on the bed and see the two metallica shirts i had bought at that goodwill. i now know that she answered my prayer. Another dream i had. I had often wondered if she considered me a grandchild.. because im not realted to her by blood. I had a dream it was at her funeral. i seen her sitting in a chair next to me. my sister and some of her grandchildren were carrying her casket to the hurse. My sister fell and dropped the casket and several of her family members were yelling at her. Helen the women who these dreams are about sat and said she loved all her grandchildren even if there not blood related. I believe Helen answers my questions in my dreams.
Your lookin over burnin' knuckles into the road, There it goes, But you don't even know your destination so, With a shake of your head, On goes the trip, And a whispered three words, This isn't it. Guided by a light, Of thirty or fourty feet, But your being driven by a heart, That has forgotten how to beat. Oh No, Here we go, Another mile turns into another night, Another day to drive right outta sight, Ohhh it's a rollercoaster horror ride. When looking over burning knuckles into the road, Oh it's a roller coaster horror ride, Lookin over burnin' knuckles into the road, Your lookin over burnin' knuckles into the road, An' there it goes, But you don't even know destination so, With a shake of your head, On goes the trip, And a whispered three words, This isn't it. On it goes_ this isn't it, On it goes_ this isn't it, Your trip_ Into the unknown, While lookin over burnin' knuckles into the road, And guided by a light, An' a heart_ that has forgotten how to beat. Your lookin over burnin' knuckles into the road, Strainin eye's on a light that guides, Our way through what we dont know. Ohh it's a rollercoaster horror ride, Being guided by the lonely nights, While lookin over, Burnin' knuckles, Into the road.
I heard an Angel today I heard an Angel today I heard an Angel say Close your eyes to wish your worries away "Listen to your heart" Where there is always the strongest of truth Believe in this heart in its spirit In its belief on what to do I heard an Angel today Sing to me this hope filled tune This hope filled tune of bright filled days Along with brighter smiles to chase the gray away My soul now up lifted, and feeling so free I feel recharged, singing this tune in gleeI heard an Angel today Grateful I am for being graced by this Angel Lucky I am for being so loved by so many Hopeful I am to share my appreciation To never forget the joy and fragile love from family To never forget my many lessons learned To never forget, never again I heard an Angel today With a shockingly familiar tune A tune of peace and harmony A tune from me to you One with love and very little greed Is my special tune you may play Any time you need.
Sense of protest under skies Of inner silence; external lies I seek protection from within But still I have to leave my skin No more spirit in this life The more I travel, the less I like A mortal sickness eating love Too blind to witness the things above Inward vision appearing weak More outer strength is all they seek Destiny and fate entwined I fall to question what's in my mind Sensing darkness in disguise An inner noise that lacks the light In desperation I now fade Another victim of dying days No more breathing for better things Only acceptance and fitting in My nightmares seep into the earth I have no power, and no true worth A dream of falling into skies I am the silent - a wraith in flight The world I see behind me lost I wake to protest what I have caught I asked a question, it opened doors Experienced the fear we're taught I am wakeful, it's all I need More understanding is what I seek
Moon Light Bright. Oooh you shine so bright in every full autumn night without your friend in cite, that helps you dominate the night sky with your dens chilling light which helps me seek my ways throw the hunting mystery of the night, without a single flashlight. Theo I wish on every day and every night nature can deliver such a beautiful cite... Moon Light Bright. Poetry 2/23/11 by Keith Kadell
We walk through the doorway, heard you calling from the hall To find you in the bedroom not breathing at all I drag your body to the cellar where we lay, the wax it melts away, I kiss your face... Now we are starting to love you more, your body's on the canvas, That I painted on the floor Now you wait, like the drug, like the change in the pain it goes on for so long And oh, now it hurts in the worst way, now that you're gone, its so wrong, its so wrong.... If I could take you somewhere, I'd take you to my darkest place, scatter you in art forms, admire the whore, beauty in different ways your hands on picture frames, your eyes in the glass wear your face as a mask Now they are starting to love you more, a gallery of your beauty no charge at the door As you wait, like the drug, like the change in the pain it goes on for so long And oh, now it hurts in the worst way, now that your gone, it's so wrong, it's so wrong.... And down below your veins run dry your vacant eyes, I lost control your face is pale, your body's cold And down below your veins run dry your vacant eyes, I lost control your face is pale, your body's cold (face is pale your body's cold ) Wait, like the drug, like the change in the pain it goes on for so long And oh, now it hurts in the worst way, now that your gone, it's so wrong, it's so wrong...
He sleeps there in a stable The babe born to the world Both mother, father watch with care Though swaddled in a cloth He is born, yet, to be king With but just rags for Him to wear This special morning The sun now shines bright From stars there in the Heavens To the rise of morning light The world now is much brighter As angels, too, now play There's hope and happiness to share Upon this Christmas Day For within the early morning Angels brought the sky a voice Calling forth those who wish to hear Along then, came all others Knowing truth within their hearts That all now have nothing to fear This special morning The sun now shines bright From stars there in the Heavens To the rise of morning light The world now is much brighter As angels, too, now play There's hope and happiness to share Upon this Christmas Day Go forth and tell all others Who had no chance to hear The news of hope and of the joy Let them know the Gift of God That comes to save us all His son sent as this little boy This special morning The sun now shines bright From stars there in the Heavens To the rise of morning light The world now is much brighter As angels, too, now play There's hope and happiness to share Upon this Christmas Day
Over the blasts of mortar shells, He heard the sound of jingle bells; And when he closed his tired eyes, He got a Christmas Day surprise. Snow was fall'n and his boy was call'n: "Daddy, can we go down now? I think it's clear, Santa's been here And Daddy got home some how. We are a family, Daddy, Mom and me On this Christmas Day; I'm with you, my wish came true, The one to Baby Jesus I did pray." From across the world, so far away, In a foreign land on Christmas Day; Sleeping with his fatigues still on, His boy's voice was a Christmas song. Snow was fall'n and his boy was call'n: "Daddy, can we go down now? I think it's clear, Santa's been here And Daddy got home some how. We are a family, Daddy, Mom and me On this Christmas Day; I'm with you, my wish came true, The one to Baby Jesus I did pray." Please remember our service heroes, Scattered throughout the world, As we celebrate with our families, The good will they hope to build. He woke up to a flash of light, And screams resounding in the night; He charged forward to help his peers; With his son's voice ringing in his ears. Snow was fall'n and his boy was call'n: "Daddy, can we go down now? I think it's clear, Santa's been here And Daddy got home some how. We are a family, Daddy, Mom and me On this Christmas Day; I'm with you, my wish came true, The one to Baby Jesus I did pray."
Breaths of fleeting laughter Violently commence But hopeless hereafter I wade through this pretence A smile that hides their scheming A shadow with a rope As they embrace me coldly Their darkness binds my hope All that's left of courage Can't overcome their lies As their silent words will haunt me Closer if I tried Boldness left unsheltered My heart spilled on the streets This icy world consuming Whatever's left in my defeat But breaths of silent laughter Now open up my eyes Their fears did not consume me And I can see beyond their lies Somehow I am smiling And suddenly I'm free The sun delivers wisdom And the fearful now retreat
scarred tissue i don't miss you i don't wish you were the better of me i don't care much for surveillance but it tempts me to burn out inside everybody's lying scarred tissue i really miss you i really wish you had got the better of me you see, i need that bad beat sometimes 'cause everybody's fine yeah, everybody's fine that's what on my mind For even Elvis reigning in his castle sometimes lost battles, immortalized forever tell the stories of the glories of mighty Aphrodite the most beautiful sin in existence bright was her smile all while the while evil stirred grinning storm clouds castles in the sky castles in the sky made for you and I grand castles in the sky sometimes re-invent your self just for indulgence stray from the normal path for it was one of a kind but I'm already under influenced sometimes a knowledgeable bright shining star fades away into the darkness shall come back in rebirth I know it sounds tragic but that's what I heard every bird has wings wings to fly away any chosen day into my dismay a beautiful array wings to start a new inner strength attitude because I'm in stride with you on another level soon a game worth winning is the reason we play life can be desperate at times but I find its beauty truly basking in the sunlight of midday so as I wave before a wave washes me to the shore I seek every day has been worth the while for the while stays wildly embedded in uniquely threaded scarred tissue
Good morning, beautiful day No clouds storming, the Sun is shining So I got to be rhyming, nice to see the leaves Falling in the Fall, go for a run feel the breez as a smile I release, Peaceful morning puts my mind at ease like a picture Say cheese, I'm in the mountains, happily shoutain to the Lord thank you For a Good morning... I'm up so early, I'm an early bird tweeting a song even if you already heard Like Jack Johnson it's not the weedend, but Banana Pancakes I will make If and when, I'd like to say Good Morning to all once again So who am I, Daniel Sainz, go head and call me Daniel Son, like the Karate Kid, HA JK Wait for the next day, Good Morning I'll say, hope it will be a Beautiful Day...
It's at that special time of year The feeling of love fills the air Celebration festive lights and good cheer Santa Clause ringing bells and reindeer Turkey Dinners and vegetable beef stew apple pies and sweet potatoes too. Children laughing in delight A tree that represents the life Christmas time is almost here At Mid-night tonight magic holds the world near Christmas time is almost here ' round the world an-tic-i-pation in the atmosphere reflection of the moon as a guiding light A star that stands proud through the night A gentle flurry covers Streets white Listen closely angles singing 'bout JC tonight On the twenty fifth of December It's a birthday to remember Bow your heads honor and reflect Forgiveness and humility lead to thanks and respect With a simple message believe in me Open your hearts to be free Release the fear and doubt In the name of the king Merry Christmas Christmas time is almost here At Mid-night tonight magic holds the world near Christmas time is almost here Around the world anticipation in the atmosphere
Raise a glass. Let's make a toast. You&I. We can burn the past. At times when I feel like I will lose all sanity. I look into your eyes and thank all that's holy for bringing you to me. Let's light a match and strike it. Burn the past that brought so much I want to forget. A past filled with much torment and tragedy. I have a heart with no regrets. I will lay down this final sacrifice. Just to give you life. I'm not afraid to give you this gift. I place in your hands what you so long have desired. An act of selflessness. Let's raise a glass and burn the past. This is not a life that you can waste. You only live once so let's burn the past. The future is ours to embrace. This world will be ours. We won't stop at nothing.
Through the screams and suffering My worst fears are foretold And if the story were not mine I'd leave it left untold Why could it not be me? That fate I could bear But as it isn't I'm left to doubt What my hands cannot repair Despite this state of helplessness I feel but the fingertips of despair In the focus of life's cruel gaze I'm awed by courage unaware From that tiny heart unconquered I do not falter or lose control For I see no strength in Death's hand That can clutch this unwilling soul
when I look into your eyez I see love still there inside and I want to be that one to make it sunny when it rains yet I want to be that girl to step into your world but first you gotta let me in into your heart and I promise you I wont split it apart when I look into ur eyez I see love still there inside I wanna make u laugh when u cry i wanna make u happy when ur sad I wanna start brandnew and erase ur past I wanna be the best you neva had so when I look into ur eyes I see love still there inside
Soulful, refracted replies Strike the sun; reflect in my eyes The layers of pain punished within Judgement ends, just to begin Cycle through the spiralling keys Unlock the doors that tragedy needs Watch the world gather in force The mirror's arms reach for my cause Held too close, by aching demand Fickle lies become mountains of sand Held too close, we turn to dust Spread upon the truth we encrust Soulful, refracted denial Strikes the moon; reflecting the miles I walked through pain, all in my mind The judgement ends, so I can find The truth of self, beyond this world Where shadows fade and everything's heard The truth of all, within my heart Where light now grows and the universe starts

You do not know what I see I see you crying next to me I see your pain, I see your tears Through your laughs, and through the years Past your mask I see your face You are hiding in this place Trust in me, I won't let you fall You don't have to hide at all Open up what's in your heart That is the place I will start Open up your eyes and see All that's left is you and me In the end you'll see the light Come on, I don't want to fight Together we will make it through Come on. Now, It's me and you Now you can start to feel How much this love is true and real behind your eyes you keep your pain It's all locked up in your brain Come on. Now, just let it out It's okay to scream and shout I will help you through and through I will always be with you
"It Should Have Been Me" James Williams Peter: How could I let this ever be To deny you at your feet and then turn around and walk away When I was the one Who stood on your name And When I was asked, " do I know you?" Three times I denied you the same It should have been me On that day taken away with thee Lord It should have been me It should have been me On that cross Dying for the cost I know Lord It should have been me. Judas: Lord I betrayed thee at the drop of a dime I placed a kiss on your face With deception in my mind Lord Why did I betray you For 30 pieces of silver And to know that you still love me My life I don't deserve It should have been me On that day taken away with thee Lord It should have been me It should have been me On that cross Dying for the cost I know Lord It should have been me. ME: Father please forgive my sins For the pain has set in You have shown your love to me Over and over again I don't deserve your mercy I don't deserve your grace I don't deserve the sacrifice that you made It should have been me On that day taken away with thee Lord It should have been me It should have been me On that cross Dying for the cost I know Lord It should have been me. It was you who and died on Calvary to save and set my spirit free Upon that cross you hung for me And Lord It should have been me. "The Simple Words"
A dream that dances in waves, and mirrors all you do So you dance, and hope that some day the song will come from you This dream is all that exists, and all you've ever known The song is picking up speed, so it's follow or fail alone A flame that flickers in sync with the shadows by your side The rain puts out the light, and causes you to hide This nightmare is all that exists, and all you've ever known But this song still hasn't stopped, and so you dance alone You cherish sand on the banks of a path winding through a storm This desert trail is all that you see; too blinding to look beyond This path is all that exists, and the only way to go Holding close the sand as you sing, just so you're not alone The sand is part of the storm that makes you close your eyes But now the wind starts to slow, and the scenery makes you cry This life is all that exists, and the only way to go The sand falls through your hands, and you carry on alone A love that blooms into being beneath the darkest skies Is a life that will venture out despite the lonely nights So scared, but so unafraid to find what you need to be Despite the fear that prevails, and tells you what to see The flames steady and still, and a shadow kneeling down The rain cleansing your heart as all your fears drown The sand creating a path, and shielding you from pain And now, with the wind at your back, you remember why you came To dream a light shining out for all the world to see To be more than you think, and beyond all that will be To create a desire to be the creators of our dreams To become the mirror of self, and reflect our unity
The Passion They called it "The Passion"— His passion for lost souls; Crucified and murdered For so called religious goals. Christ's passion for the hurting, Tempest-tossed soul; Sacrificed His earthly life; Man's eternity His goal. Chorus The Passion and the cross Is a story to be told, Until this world ends And judgment unfolds. A carpenter turned preacher With no sword in hand Was led to His death By Judas' evil band. Taken in the evening From Gethsemane's garden; Hung from a cross That we may be pardoned. To be cruelly beaten Without human reason; Mocked and spat on In a prophetic season. Made to wearily carry His instrument of death; A heavy wooden cross; Laboring for breath. Crucified with wood and nails, The objects of His trade, Because He preached His Father's love; His Passion was forbade.

If it's not one thing then it's another. I'm either fighting with my dad or hearing screams from my mother. My girlfriend doesn't trust me. I can't pay for therapy. I can't do this all alone. I get down on my knees. I ask the lord for forgiveness, right before I begin. Although he is a forgiving God, how could he look upon sin? Prayer is so simple even a child can start. It's not all imagination, your faith must come from the heart. It's all so real, the thrill you feel, the chill that's going through you. You no longer fear it, the holy spirit starts showing and glowing, it's true. Who knew that you, that tough guy? The one that wouldn't believe? Then why are you always calling out for him when your unable to achieve? He's always there to help us. Stand out and give it a try. The Closer you get to God you'll see this isn't a lie. Thank you, Jesus! Praise Jesus! Halliugha! Oh Lord! I can never lose a battle using you as a sword! Life here is too short, yesterday is already gone. Knowing where you'll spend eternity will help keep you moving on. Praise God!
There's a special place not to far - you know A special place where we all can go A place where dreams run as free as our mind A place where we stop the happiest of times To live our fullest at being who we are To share and listen in each others beliefs of who we are. To be happy being who we are In a land of Christmas dreams Is a special place for you and me Somewhere to go and always see How truly life can really be Listen to our loved ones how we want to be heard Understanding completely with out stating a word Where giving is a pleasure with a hug and a kiss Open minds and hearts and feelings as this In a land of Christmas dreams In a land of Christmas dreams Is a special place for you and me Somewhere to go and always see How truly life can really be For this beauty of freedom and dreams Every night stares at you in your sleep This giving and caring is special indeed This giving and caring is shared between you and me Expressing our gracious love for our friends and family Always supporting our love and devotion Being there for each other through times thick and thin Always to return strong in message of the truth within In this land of Christmas dreams All of it's beauty of freedom sings Every night sings to you in your sleep This giving and caring is special indeed For this giving and caring of Christmas dreams Is all behind the spirit of you and of me.
By faith we can kiss the feet that wore the shoes that the latches we are unworthy to loose leave our burdens with thanksgiving sweetly cry ~By faith we can reach up to the nail scarred hands that led the blind man out of town in the way keep looking up to the eyes that wipe away all tears ~By faith receiving His love with and without fears it is written love Him He will lead in the most excellent way living to die dying to live it is by His strength we stand ~By faith we can lean upon Jesus' bosom with listening ears hearing the heart beat of God the small voice saying the Love of God shall never die ~By faith waiting for the horses they fly Lord Jesus the one leadeth with staff and rod the fruitful bow that forever blossom's ~By faith as Jesus heals the blind man looking at His face the blind man looking around saw every man clearly Love is of God we must not from their lovely faces hide ~By love our brothers and sisters we have seen so dearly the brother we have seen on the street stumbling by the knowledge of His saving grace for whom Our saviour died ~By grace of the Lord Jesus in the morrows by and by be that pure and perfect lovely Bride "Who is my mother, or brethren." Jesus said we can By Faith
Brother, garbage sweeper, Don't sweep anyone's hopes away They've tossed into the streets... Tears, you know, Cannot smudge Our Avenues... Folks on the whole Keep their regrets All bottled up... No you can't guess How they feel When they don't go outside... Those garbage pails You've emptied out for years And years and years, are mute Witness to your feelings... So why allow anyone Who thinks only of his stomach To bother you? Brother, garbage sweeper, please don't misunderstand My words... I never intended To humiliate you .... What's the difference Between us?... Brother, garbage sweeper, Don't sweep anyone's hopes away They've tossed into the streets... Tears, you know, Cannot smear Our Avenues... © Üzeyir Lokman ÇAYCI Paris, 10. 05.1999 Traduit par Yakup YURT en français French free verse translated into English free verse by Richard Vallance , 2002
Witness the veil of lucid time Asleep to awake, again to find The moment always slipped away The vanishing act of this present place The word devoted to unwind The threads of despair that intend to bind The ways we now want to forgive To the lack of a voice in how we lived This moment offering reprieve Upon realisation that what's perceived Is pain from pages burnt at last As we fear the future will return to ash The void within what we disturbed The passing of anger never left unheard The deepest loneliness we struck More incentive to burn before we read the book But witness the veil of lucid time Asleep and awake, as we dream our lives Between the past and future's route This moment exists if it is for truth
A prayer for those who are in dispair along the Gulf Coast due to the BP Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion. A prayer for those who waited and their loved ones did not return, Amazing Grace Wash Over Thee. Amazing grace wash over me. My tears are a river to the sea. Lord above, we know you know, the oil that is washing upon our coast. Amazing grace wash over me, and lift my soul up to Thee. Lord above, hear my prayer, for those who are in dispair. Amazing grace wash over me. I lift my hands to God you see. My prayer for those who were hurt, and those who will never return to earth. Amazing grace wash over thee, families were left in disbelief. Empty hands, their loved ones gone, Lord Jesus, guide them safely Home. Amazing grace wash over me, the oil is filling up the sea, from Louisiana to Mississippi. Animals are dying, and people are crying. Amazing grace wash over me.
MEGAN IMAGE It stops my heart sometimes, just seeing you or knowing you are near, or somewhere else I've never been, part of the past but never far from here. Deep in your eyes where there's no end to see, I lose myself to life's great tragedy and you've become my very greatest fear. Your photograph's forever part of me and has become the last thing ...........................my mind will ever see. © ron wilson aka Vee Bdosa the Doylestown Poet You can see the photograph on my Ron Wilson Facebook page. I was asked by a couple of girls what I think the best poem I have ever written is, and I could not give them an answer...then they asked me what is my personal favorite I have ever written. That was a simple and very fast answer... This is it, MEGAN IMAGE, and it started all of the serious poetry writing that continues to this day.

Closed Eyes -- I imagine you, a bird Soaring through a cloudless wide open And to my ears, I hear the gentle chimes In breathtaking delight, a sound so Tinkle Tinkle Tinkle… Breathing in -- The air is warm painted in sunshine Sweet as fresh rain in the woods I hear you -- A quiet flutter against plumes Your feathers lift so subtle Embracing cooling winds High above the treetops… Please wait for me in budding branches; I will fly with you, I promise -- I love you.
Mr Wise Man, show me the way I can't keep walking into walls all day Quitting jobs wasn't easy but the reasons we're wrong I felt like I was feeding King Kong Left my life to help those that need it Got mistreated, left, all to repeat it The lessons are eternal they won't ever change, That's your gift to me so that I won't be deranged. So now that I have gotten better please give me my strength My life is something that is losing it's length. Mr Wise Man, show me the way I can't keep walking into walls all day Tolerance has always been my strongest feature, Made me forget about every evil creature. Test my limits all you want, I know it's vital That is all a case of survival. I don't know why I just keep trying In the end I know I'll be dying. My faith has been put to test A test that will put me to rest All the worlds I've been to All the places I've gone through Every single man woman and child Every single one would make another mild Stronger than the rest This should make me the best Or maybe it's best I don't know Maybe it's best I just go So Mr Wise Man, don't show me the way I can't keep walking into walls all day I'll walk my own path

My heart is beating with upbeat delight You astound me…in every shape and form My spirit is dancing with unbreakable might You surprise me…when you take my hand And pull me outtah my jail-like dorm And He dismisses me from my solitude… My eyes are glistening with bliss… And I'm far from my demise… Only to find that there's no need to feel helpless Why do you spoil me rotten with your fatherly affection? Just protect me from any harm Let me make my own decisions… To see the results in the long run You prize me as if I'm cherished like your carefree child You don't understand – I'm TOO foolish and wild I haven't even reached to full maturity But how eye hope to see myself grow and be set free From the world's mayhem Is there a solution to this problem? And I'm left with no answer… My eyes are eager to see…another bright day And the night is coming to haunt me… I find myself slowly disappearing from sight… When will God give me a purpose to fight? When will He feed me His awesome might? Just support me…especially during my downfalls Please answer my calls! And I'm left to venture off into His path… Eye can't escape my terrible nightmares Consider my calls of acceptance…my grief weighs a ton Let me pour forth my tears – Do me a favor and cast away my fears Steer me away from disorder and confusion Eye can see you're making great progress You're heading towards a brighter, superb future… My eyes No longer witness oblivion My eyes Looks beyond the earthly pain… bEyOnD the affliction I spot a rope in the distance. . . . . Push aside the waves…and let me Grab it this instant! God feeds me His love…and treats me Like a newborn infant! Eye see my Father with brand-new eyes I feel rare content And I feel hardly any resentment Eye cherish that REMARKABLE moment
A lonesome dove feathered white. The branch strong, time light. ...no "wait". A dream. really blowing a sweet breeze. ...no "wait". A heart beat sitting in a tree, spirit like, ...no "wait". A rhyme. ...of atomosphere.
I'm waiting for my moment My moment to shine One thats irreplaceable And very hard to find I'm doing my best To smile to the world I know that theres a reason Why I'm a shy girl I'm probably not special In any kind of way But I wont let that Ruin my day I'm gonna do best No matter how hard it'll be I'm not doing it for anyone I'm just doing it for me I had my moments I had my days But I won't let it get me down No not today
How quickly we forget Dreams come true yes they do Just believe make a wish No matter who you are Watch n see talk to that star Remember wishes are free Just ask the children Laughing and playing Make a wish Angels singing happily Make a wish Sprinkling magic all round Watch a miracle take place A prayer for your neighbor A kiss for mom n dad Wishes come true Make a wish Just believe Make a wish Just believe And seal it with heaven above
I never been ocular witness one of the happiest moments that I dreamed. I did never taste the wine of freedom that I knead in my cellars. And the river goes down onrush, in order to sweep this litter life. So here I am At the bank of Acherons grin and bear it as in a bus station. The system is doping me with money. My friends promise me a sunny day. And I want the future now!
Souls are separated, From the doubt inside the mind, Romance evaporated, Still, emotions remain blind, Dreams of together breaking, Hope for this life never thrives, Yet faith is newly waking, For soul mates stay alive, So, lovers dry your eyes It's okay, Keep memories in the sky, For brighter days, As real love never lies, And true love never dies, New days and new hearts aching, For a chance to be surprised, Eyes wet and body shaking, From the pain felt deep inside, Love and infatuation, Seems to be the tie that binds, With hearts reincarnated, Stubborn soul mates reign sublime, So, let your spirits fly, Fly today, And soul mate dry your eyes, It's okay, Memories stay alive, For true love never dies...
Lightening all you have betrayed Enlighten the darkness in your brain Illuminate all you can perceive From contamination to disease The voices of hunger will remain Seeking the power to obtain A grip on the things that scare you most To weaken your spirit; to be host In times of wanting, and in greed Your first reaction was to feed Hammering fear in to your heart Causing your senses to depart Strength over others comes from fear Igniting the wars that keep it near A shadow that sneaks in to your soul From birth until death you are its goal Exercise consciousness and thought Look beyond everything you're taught Analyse selfhood and reveal The bravest ambition is to feel Forgiving the people that betrayed Knowing their darkness and their pain Become the light you need to see Feel it in all those you set free
Why do I chase the atom? when the universe has always been mine. Can love evolve from red giant into a galaxy? Dust and stone become skin and bone, born; fall and rise again. I love the black holes of your eyes for they radiate much more light than they could ever take. White hot coals made to rake caked surface of my lungs. How I long to see your breath steam up the silence in my soul. Droplets, turn into rapids and rush my question away. I tripped; stumbling my spirit crumbling. Hold; release those fingers. Strength born of sugar does not last, and it feeds fear I need complex and organic Can rotten become fresh? Carry the inner babe Cain and brother Abe. Save: heal the tether.
This cold air fills my lungs. I can see it in your eyes. You're so fragile and weak. Your hollow chest holds empty nothings. You won't even fight. Put the lies to rest. Darling open those precious eyes. When will you realize that I'll never leave your side. Your heart has been broken so many times. Your eyes like diamonds have cried so many tears. I won't give up on you. Darkness has surrounded your mind. Your torn at the seams. Life is nothing more than a bad dream to you. If you give me one last fighting chance, I'll pull you through. Powerless. Blood stains your dress. Put down your scissors. You must learn the word forgiveness. Open up inside. If you give me this chance, I'll open your eyes to a new life. I'll breathe hope into your lungs. I know what you have been through. Just trust me. I won't hurt you. If you're gonna believe in something, darling believe in me. When everyone has left you here, look who is still standing beside you for an eternity. You'll make it out. Your heart has graced your sleeve. Follow your heart and no longer grieve. I've meant every word I've said from the start. That'll never change. I'll hold your hand through this all. Can't you see the words I've engraved on this wall. I love you.
My dreams are falling apart In Your hands, I pray (for joy), "Take heart!" You are the stars - searing my Soul is kneeling to the ground Trace my future and take wing Towards the pathway...You find peace You are an angel in my-- Heart is bleeding soundlessly Above land...I mourn so sweet I am the clouds - carrying a Gallon of grief...release me! Place me in fields of love and Forgive me and lift me up You are the heavens to my-- Heart is beating profoundly Without Your heart's joyous song You are the sun - nourishing My lambs are grazing around, Roving in fields of splendor, Enlightening the darkness You are an apple to my-- Eye is grieving...losing sight Of Your glory...I feel lost You are the lake - sparkling with Delight and Luck! Bring us home! Grow like a morning glory In the autumn time, You thrive You are valuable to my-- Eye is twinkling...praying for Insight...yearning for Your sight You are the hills - guiding my Mind is longing for your mirth-- Restoring peace to my verse, Sprouting forth grace and freedom You are the train tracks, bearing-- My train of thought...making my Steel spirit connect with Yours You are the valley - between The mountains guarding us all, Building strength to fragile bones, Welcoming a stream of hope You are my map - lending me YOUR helping hand I would take Now, I could take Your challenge You are like a maze filled with Mysteries conceal the truth; I fight with all of my might And I BEG for Your mercy To mend my once blissful dreams! How I long for Your mercy...
Wake up Sound the alarm Your days are numbered Life is passing you by Don't count on tomorrow to be the person you should That's a lie, truth is you never would Change the tide today Leave your chains at bay Let these hurdles before you be only a memory For the mirror reflects your worst enemy You needed reasons to stay behind But a lack of contentment was all you could find Haunted by a bleak picture of what could have been A deep cry of desperation begins from within It's time to let the walls of self protection fall Throw your hands up in the air and surrender it all As stubbornness and pain melts freedom flows Revival of your soul abounds as you simply let go No more waiting around It's time to be set free Hope is found I'm giving the best of me

Skies are Blue Trees are green I keep on walking round that redwood tree, I keep on walking around that redwood tree. I've been walking For days on end And I still can't see The light again. So I'll keep on walking round that redwood tree, I'll keep on walking round that redwood tree I've kept on walking till I met you With sea blue eyes A pretty smile, too. So no more walking Round that red wood tree No more walking down that redwood tree.
It's a tragic time When hearts do bleed When a young man lies dying By another's hand We storm highest heavens Cries of lingered pain Wave of tears descending And solidarity yearns Gone too soon Too soon to die There's no good reason ever-ever What wasted lives And it's no remedy To this senseless game See no one's winning And the piper plays on But it's no remedy No remedy It's no remedy today Silent detestation Follows the pain Vicious circle appalling and hinders There's no finding peace To change the pathway Let the young ones see No hatred will heal them When sanity's lost Gone too soon Too soon to die There's no good reason ever What wasted lives ~*~ Note: The Song Title: "Sacrifice" by Elton John/ Bernie Taupin
Gentle Breeze Things blowing all around me but I am standing still. Problems like a hurricane, the world thinks I should yield. But, there's a gentle breeze blowing calling me in where I will find the strength to begin again. There's a gentle breeze around me that's steady and true. It gives me comfort and strength I never knew. As the stillness comes, I settle down, knowing that everything's ok. Looking past the horizon the heavy winds blow but deep inside is my comfort zone, I am safe when I'm at home. The gentle winds are blowing safe within my soul. I feel like I could slip away to another place. A place where only the gentle breeze can blow on my face. Blow on me gentle breeze calm my soul within. Blow on me gentle breeze bring me peace again. Blow gentle breeze, gentle breeze blow. The world is sometimes harsh and scary, I wish I could run and hide. But everywhere I look there's no end in sight. I finally found that place in me that helps me deal with things. I feel the breeze coming on, I see it in the trees. Blow on gentle breeze, blow within my soul. Help me find that resting place that heals my wounded soul. Blow gentle breeze, gentle breeze blow
Broken but Blessed I'm broken for now and I don't know how…but I know it's not forever and I still believe. Never say never cause' I surrender to him, all of me. Without God in my life, everything stands still…even if I am fulfilled I'm still empty, but I'm blessed and I don't want your sympathy cause I'll be just fine within in this brilliant state of mind. This is just the beginning, a temporary seasonal mode…..so you might want to download and go cause when I spring up from fall you'll upgrade me from a story being told to so many being sold with no holds. Then I'm out of sight like a shooting star; you won't understand how I made it this far. I'm so high on God's love, that I can never be touched. Try to bring me down, and watch how much higher I rise up. Some wonder how I'm broken but blessed and yet have no stress or mess that has to be cleaned up…I just look at them and smile cause he's already begun to work on my profile as he circulates me so agile… And all the while that I wait with patience, he continues to amaze me, adjusts my circumstances so I'm free-standing like an angel…my mentality he enhances. So I flip the switch with positive insight giving me stability to make it through the stormy weather…the idea is so clever and I can free-fall through it all. By: Aleasha A. Martin
From my thoughts on the paper in which it lies, My everlasting passion is inked as it dries. The way I feel inside, you might want to spy, But if you pry, how will my lyrics surprise? A song for thought will only leave a thought. May sound difficult, but that's just how I talk. I was lost, but I found me. Dreaming and believing that writing was my key. The way it flows and the way that it goes pumps me to speak the very thoughts that many minds chose to keep. Many rocks I've kicked and many decisions I've made. Any wrongs I take the blame. Tic-tac-toe is only a game. I plagiarize your eyes with the notes that I've taken, A high note here and a low note there- You'd swear I'm in your head when my song hits your ear. Pain recognizes pain And I've have my share of bandages. My vibes from life heals the permanent damages. Thoughts of a Songwriter, Reaches farther beyond the beat, Over the lyrics on the sheet, Not only is it about the speech, But more of what the message seeks. True enough a theme is touched and a heart is rushed. With the mind-throbbing picture disappearing Through the ink of my pen and revealed through your lens, You can't hear me, but do you feel me? I cherish my talent and where it could possibly sweep me. My doubts and my worries are beneath me. I love for brighter days and pray for more things to pave. Call my life my number because its infinite. Thoughts of a Songwriter, My mentality drips it.
Savior of mine I call out to you Save me from myself and all I believe that is true. For my heart is aching inside and I know not what to do. Take me by the hand Guide me to a far away land. Allow me to escape myself once and for all. I know not what my future brings I know not where this path leads However I do know, that my heart bleeds Savior of mine Stop this aching pain Free my soul from its evil reign. For life without you, is lived only in vain. Savior of mine I give myself to you Broken and scared For this is all that I can do. For with you nothing of myself will remain From this point on I can only gain. Thank you for saving me This unworthy soul is now set free.
Fall is my favorite time of year. I just love when you ride in the country and see all the pretty colors of leaves on the trees. See the kids having lots of fun jumping up and down as the autumn colors fall to the ground. The air is so crisp and clean and you feel alive. The wind blowing through the trees is so nice to hear. Children everywhere running and jumping with such a cheer. Fall brings out the child in us all. Not too far behind is the holiday season we all look forward to. Bright lights, decorations, toys and all, But nothing could come close then watching the fist snowflake fall.
Dreams lost in lack of sense A lack of knowing where it went Into the maelstrom; loss of sight Machinery that stole your light Fumbling through quiet noise Mimicry evading choice Everything within your grasp When you don't see beyond your clasp Stubborn nightmares leaking through The water rising lets you choose Standing tall when you can't sit Your prison granting this privilege Conscious reason comes to aid Escaping from this shallow grave The first revival, so alone The sun revealing the dark unknown Many paths, all are one Soon to shape the dark beyond And through the journey you will find You were guided by your own designs Experience is breathing through Sharing truth to let us choose A wakeful state to gain insight Accept that pain can strengthen light
it's times like these when you are at your lowest point when you are on your knees with your head held down oh , how vulnerable you must be Get up and get that dirt off of your jeans Don't let them see you like this Oh, please just rise up and realize that your life has meaning You're so much stronger than you look I swear, just don't turn your back on the ones that you love the ones who never gave up on you you push, you pull, you thrive to survive but how can you succeed when you haven't even opened your eyes it appears that you have hit rock bottom but you just need to stop following the trends and beliefs of this dying generation oh yes, stand up, rise above, with both of your eyes wide open Live your life and know what it means to succeed Be yourself and live to live Not just to breathe
===== A little rhyme inspired by DaryIsue LockHart's rhymes ===== It is for the lost.. that I wanna find the way, Out from this dark place, of pain and misery. Back to ourselves.. how we were, when we were young, Before evil played its hand, before the time we got stung. I wanna be free.. but that'll have to wait! I'm trapped by emotion, by feelings soo great. And I'm not alone.. in this victims prison, D.I.Y Labotomy, I'll make the first incision. I don't want drugs, to ease my pain, I found Nirvana.. but can't get back again! Some say I'm insane! This train of thought I'm on, Goes through a portal to another dimension. But it's a dark, cold world.. where I know no fear, My heart it stops, my mind sharpens.. becomes clear, When I look into your eyes.. I can see your soul, I can reach into your heart.. but I might lose control! Sometimes I can see.. just a little too much, And round-about that time, I start to lose touch, See.. I know why you hurt, but I could hurt them too! I'd make them scream, long, sweet, songs of sorry.. just for you. However.. I know something, that they don't know, I've had a little glimpse, of the place, that they go, Where they like to turn the tables.. and play little games, Where sticks and stones hurt, but so will the names! Till then.. keep strong! Keep your mind awake, You've walked through fire, I think you should take a break, But you've seen the enemy, like me.. you wanna fight, Thats why I walk alone, with no shadow, in the night.
Shine Let me rest my head on your shoulder. Wrap me up, keep me warm. It's getting colder. Carry me through this storm. I'm ready. I'm waiting. It took me too long to get here. Hold me steady. The answer will appear loud and clear. The future unfolds when we're ready for what it holds. The pieces fit when time declares that this is it. Hence, the value of patience. I'm ready. I'm waiting. It took me too long to get here. Hold me steady. The answer will appear loud and clear. The storm is fierce. Yet the sun will shine again, Waiting for something to pierce. Waiting to redeem its men. I'm ready. I'm waiting. It took me too long to get here. Hold me steady. The answer will appear loud and clear. We must be willing to shine.
My eyes Pour forth feelings That I've felt in the past They make my heart ache… Take it all away… Oh my God… They're making me sink in dismay When will they break away? When will they give me a break? And I'm left in my solitude… Do you hear me weeping? And I'm close to my demise… Only to find myself disappear… When will peace draw near? Eye don't see A happy ending in this scene My eyes Journeys into the unknown Who knows what will happen… They're like hidden treasure… They're buried far below… And I'm left in my solitude… My eye's weeping… And I'm close to my demise… Only to find myself disappear… When will peace draw near? Oh my God… They're driving me insane When will they see my reflection? When will they heal the infection? Eye don't feel Raindrops of hope and relief All I feel…is grief… Eye sense no peace… And I'm left in my solitude… My eye's sagging…from endless mourning And I'm close to my demise… Only to find myself disappear… When will peace draw near? Does He hear My supplications? Does He sense My fear? My eyes Conceals the tears that dare to spew out I feel trapped and lost without a doubt… They erase my delight… They seek my hurt… Oh my God… They're casting me away into the perilous sea And I'm left in my solitude… My eye's weeping… And I'm close to my demise… Only to find myself disappear… When will peace throw out my fear? Eye don't see A ship in sight…to save me from my demise My lifeless body... Drifts away in the wild ocean... Without a sound... Without emotion... Eye don't see A rope to hold on to… My hope for peace Has drowned…
My eyes Refuse to see tragedy My eyes Marinate in dread…unable to embrace ecstasy And I'm left in my solitude… My eye's sagging…from endless mourning And I'm close to my demise… Only to find myself disappear… When will peace draw near? You don't see What damage you've done Just let me be Leave me alone…hand me a gun I yearn for unspoiled glory To make me feel perfect once more I yearn for flawless serenity To make me feel no regret…don't ignore My calls…don't hang up on me You don't see What damage you've done Just hear my plea Listen to my excruciating cries… Listen to the truth, not the malicious lies Our journey has just begun And I'm left in my solitude… Do you hear me weeping? And I'm close to my demise… Only to find myself disappear… When will peace draw near? Eye can't handle the stress Let me release my horrendous distress Eye can see you making that same mistake At least MY life isn't at stake And I'm left in my solitude… My eye's weeping…do You feel my lament And I'm close to my demise… Only to find myself disappear…Stepped on like cement I'm aching with discontent… I abhor this torment When will peace scrub off my fear? I can't believe my eyes Your guiltiness flows into me… I can't believe I fell for your lies Your heartless action rape my mind…you don't see What my EYES see… You'll never see How much pressure you put me under Unchain me from this chamber And watch me flee… When will you be set free?
I may not have any earthy goods and I may not have any fame but someday in the book of life I know you'll find my name I long to walk on streets of pure gold can't wait to live where we'll never grow old Praise God,Oh How I praise God Praise God, oh Glory hallelujah Christ is King Praise God almighty let the Hallelujahs ring Praise God forever How the Heaven's ring Praise God, Oh How I praise God I may not be the beautiful one I don't claim to be much at all but someday I'll have a heavenly form when I arise to my saviors call Someday I'll have a mansion fair over in glory Land I get so excited in praise I lift my hands..

THE SUCCESSFUL MAN Every successful man had his first time What happened that day was his experience If he trailed,then he became resilient But if he thrived,he became consistent Every successful man had his first time Every successful man had his first time When he trailed, he refused to flatter-close his eyelid, when he was feeling drowsy He was at will and top to lift that which the world said was heavy Every successful man had his first time Every successful man had his first time When he thrived, he refused to sigh Until he inhaled the last air he refused to smile Until he felt the last tear drop Every successful man had his first time What then is success? Success is how the beneficiary defines it Success is the ability to revisit Success is the willingness to conquer that which is conquered Success is the zeal to awaken that which is dead Success is the courage to say never Success is the stamina to stay forever Success is the patience to await regardless Success is the readiness to climb the impossible stairs Success is you and I Success depends on how high we can fly Success depends on how best you can try Success is what we deserve before we die
Because of you I know some things And a little about life You raised me to be good You showed me wrong from right You made sure I was better After each time I was sick And said be judged by 12 Than carried by 6 Because of you – you told me Write about my life not what I hear When it stormed you held me Cause it was the thunder I feared We always have a good time You know I be acting crazy And you told me no matter how old I get I would always be your baby Because of you in my life That's what made me a better man And I don't always do right Time again you would help me understand When I needed advice or had a problem There wasn't one that you couldn't solve So to me you're that one special person You're my queen, my friend, to you my mom
"Beyond" Written: by Tom Wright 9/7/98 Beyond each of our hills, He leaves a valley. Beyond each arid stretch, He'll place a stream. Beyond each troubled time, We may be facing. God gives us hope, And allows us to dream. Beyond each sunlit day, He made a sunset. Beyond each moonlit night, He fixed a dawn. Beyond each daily problem, We encounter. There is, God, Gently urging us on. Beyond each planting time, Comes a harvest. Beyond each harvest, a separation there'll be. Beyond separation, An eternity to spend. With God, saying, Won't you spend it with me?
Sometimes I wish that I could be, a little boy who was just like me. When I was young and not afraid, of anyone or anything. I'll take my time to lose it all. But learn to run before I crawl. So far away from everything. That this cruel world has thrown on me. Hearts may break, as teardrops fall. But love and time, will heal us all. So hold onto, your happy thoughts. Grip childhood dreams, don't let them rot! I'll shake some hands, and crack a smile. I'm in no rush, I'll be here a while. To face this world, all on my own. But in your arms, I'm not alone. So take my hand, and hold it tight. Let's spread our wings, and take to flight. We'll break the boundaries, of any road. And go seek out, our pot of gold. Hearts may break, as teardrops fall. But love and time, will heal us all. So hold onto, your happy thoughts. Grip childhood dreams, let the bad ones rot! Sometimes I believe in miracles. Sometimes I hate this cold hard world. Sometimes I just break down and cry. That's when my angels help me fly. Carry me, high upon your shoulders. Don't let me, grow any older. For Neverland, is where we make it. I'm happy now, no need to fake it. In troubled times, I drift away. And let my childhood memories play. When lost and lonely, pick up the phone. Dear mom and dad, I'm coming home. Hearts may break, as teardrops fall. But love and time, will heal us all...
Look into my eyes And the blessed skies; You will see they are true and blue, Always glowing and focused on you. Look into my hands And the virgin lands; You will see they are full of golds and goodies, Always there to quench your thirst and longings. Look into my heart And the colurful kite; You'll see they are always up above, Always flying higher as you toss it with your true love. Come into my life And join this legal strife; We'll be sentenced not with hard labour But to life imprisonment with love and favour Never make me cry Do not say goodbye; Till the shadows divide Always be with me , even amidst the tide.
We often like singing, to landslides of roses, and no one cares. This worlds almost over, so hard to stay sober, when you're not there. For time will tell your fortunes fail, when you breathe my name, so call on those who care for you, as your fear hides your shame. The clouds will calm, the angry rain, as I take all the blame! This world that we live in, is taken not given, when we don't share. So trust in your loved ones, to hold and protect you, when I'm not there. For faith in love is bittersweet, when you have no shame. So close your eyes and raise your voice, call out my name. Just hold me now, believe in me, I'll take all your pain! Cause I love you my precious one, I hold you in my heart. So run with me so far away, we'll build a new start. Just hold me now, believe in me, forever we'll be! Cause we often like singing, to landslides of roses, and no one cares. And as we grow older, this world may seem colder, but I'll still be there.
What you see through your eyes is no suprise at all. You don't seem mesmorized when you see something as beautifull as a water fall. You see what is merely there and look on without a care. That's not what I see through my eyes. I see the waterfall as something of wonder. As it crashes against the rocks it rattles in my ears like thunder. There's more then just the water falling. You can't hear Mother Nature calling? I used to think that I was strange for what I saw with my eyes. Now I see it's a gift that never dies. You'll never see what I see and I can't for you. Just trust me when I say the love I see and feel is nothing but true. I used to hate what I saw, being so different, and gave nothing but sighs. Now I thank God every chance I think about it for my unique and searching eyes. Every one veiws thing differently. Remember this and respect other people's opinions.
It only takes one voice to start a song With someone else there… to sing along And pretty soon, you may well see The entire world singing happily There is that one voice within us all It's pride and fear that hides the call But, if just one would raise a voice Others would follow as a matter of choice So loud and strong, that one should sing Happiness to all, that person may bring By starting the world off… in that song Then everyone else will just sing along Do not be afraid of the changes you make Life can only improve by the choices we take And if the lyrics for that moment seem wrong Then quiet the voice and start a new song One person can change the whole world we know By deciding to stand to let their voice grow Do not back down when it's your time to sing You'll be so surprised by what your voice brings Within the air, all the voices you'll hear Will be of the many that overcame fear Standing to sing, despite those who wait They're the voices of those, who contribute to fate Do not be afraid of the changes you make Life can only improve by the choices we take And if the lyrics for that moment seem wrong Then quiet the voice and start a new song Be that one voice Sing from your heart Don't hide in the shadows You can be now the start
Co-incidence (n 1 a chance occurence of simultaneous or apparently connected events) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Up, down.. left and right, It's all around us, like the day and the night, Too big to miss, but it's beyond our sight, It's there.. and it isn't. Nearly is.. but not quite! You people are ALL right.. so I'll try to be polite, You can't fight the feeling.. 'cause you haven't got the might, Can you handle the truth? Get a grip and hold tight, 'Cause it will set you free! Blow your mind like dynamite! In the beginning.. I'm sure you know too, This World was created, it's all been thought through, Evolving on que, under skies made so blue, Plant's came before us, just so they could give to you. Sorry, I'm repeating what you already knew, But how did these plants know to sow the seeds that grew? So they slid through our bellies, waiting in our fertile poo? Symbiosis with the Planet.. does this all sound true? What about us? Why are we here? Why all the questions? It is obviously clear! It all makes sense, so there's no need to fear, Don't confuse the matter, because it's simple my dear! We have got ears.. so that we can hear, But why give us a brain? Because year after year, We just dig a deeper ditch.. and then flood it with tears, When the end draws near, will you hear any cheers? I want a big applause, when I finish this race, If I finish first.. I won't say "In your Face!" Try to look good, don't end it in disgrace, Or even take it slow, and set a nice steady pace. Never give up! Learn to lead a merry chase, Up the garden path, throughout time and space, And just in case, we end up lost in this place, The case will be closed and we'll be gone, without a trace.
Stuck in your box of ease Fear holding you back from being free Holding to comfort so you'll never fail But this zone is starting to feel like a prison jail So throw off the chains of easy And mix up your routine This life is all you'll live for Make it somethin worth a mean Stop being a wind up, just going through the day Cause if your living a wind up, where will you wind up anyway Live out your essence its too early to hit the sack Life of coziness harvests nothing but a lack So this worlds got a few bumps, but how else will you learn A new experience awaits your every turn So throw off the chains of easy And mix up your routine This life is all you'll live for Make it somethin worth a mean Stop being a wind up, just going through the day Cause if your living a wind up, where will you wind up anyway Scars are memories in a new form Bruises are just knowledge being born Sure burns may hurt for alittle bit Chances are though youve learned from it
He loaded his family of 7 in a little silver van knowing it could have all been prevented No seatbelts on even the smallest of hand his impatience with the semi ended along with the tiniest of cries now the rest of the family wonders why? Chorus*He didnt wanna wait so he crossed the line he sealed his fate and destroyed every life never looked twice into the bigger picture he didnt wanna wait before he crossed the line* He heard the door close turned to see her cry sighed a breath of regret knowing he could never try He just didnt love her the way he knew he should he belonged to another and hurt her as he knew he would Chorus*He didnt wanna wait so he crossed the line he sealed his fate and destroyed her life never looked twice into the bigger picture he didnt wanna wait before he crossed the line* Bridge* Anyway you look at it someone always gets broken when the hand of greed rips into the wide open*
Mold me, make me, wake me and when I'm lost find me, confined me and shelter me. Control and protect my path, lead me only to you and away from the wrath. Fill me with dreams of you hide and eradicate the thoughts that are not true or of you. Guide my path and continue to warm my heart. Our father, the art of heaven, the significant thoughts of my life and the true reason I write. Mold me, make me and when I fall asleep please wake me. Copyright Andrew Vassell 2012
I'm Free To Fly No ifs. No ands, No buts. No whys. No laughter. No tears. No hellos or goodbyes Peace has been made with the regrets of the past. With a sigh of relief, I've made it at last. I know where I'm going and where I have been. No more questions a new life to begin. No ifs. No ands. No buts. No whys. With burdens laid down, I'm free to fly
Dear God I been struggling all my life for the sins I committed I paid the price learned to live with regrets and sacrifice da da da da da da da da da da da I contain unspeakable secrets in the depths of my mind my eyes have witness the wickedest sickness of mankind In been conflicted at times by my on mind confined implicated in crime and briefly confined Now I'm a family guy and there much more than worth it but what if all the beef from my past comes to the surface that's not what I sweat I got theLord to protect if the strings get pulled on the devils marionettes but in the event they approached with the intent of my death I'd still send shots down the center like I'm dialing collect always a peaceful cat except for my youth when I swore that I wore a bullet proof gorilla suit and in the heat of the streets deepest beefs I found every shot that came would miss be by a country mile until that one that came to erase the life of Dwayne it murder portions of me and the rest if left in pain in a since he's still here cause his blood flows through my veins and my faith dictates I can see him again all though the pain never lessens their are lessons in pain for what does not kill me gives me strength to gain Dear God I been struggling all my life for the sins I committed I paid the price learned to live with regret and sacrifice da da da da da da da da da da da
I'm a goddess My flow is unspeakable Not too many situations are infeasible A goddess I'm surely irresistible Besides my persona the reason isn't invisible A goddess I'm gracious always A real stand up woman the woman she don't play A goddess Courageous in all ways Up against a man my heart will outweigh A goddess A woman with intuition A passion for life and the quality of it's condition A goddess I'm a woman authentically Progressively complexity, I love my femininity
As only a bottle opened Can be filled again spilled! So only the book burnt Can be written anew lost! For how can I be found anew Unless I am first lost? As how can I be poured again Unless I am first spilled?
It's a lonely, truthful journey finding your voice, with which to sing, even worse, then there's the journey for your song; but, we all sing from our essence to share the truths each heart may bring, so sing out loud, sing out clear, and sing out strong. After a while, you may meet someone who may fancy the same "life tune", but, their performance of the song does not ring, true: I can't emphasize enough, my friend that we all live the songs we choose, and that the melodies, and lyrics always falls on you. That's why I sing the Blues these days, and feel as lonely as the moon, there's a certain honesty in reminding folks of pain; and how next time it might be avoided by adding "blue-notes" to the tune, to draw attention, so it can't happen to us again. Now, the other side of those "blue-notes is a more joyful, hopeful tune, to remind us that our hearts aren't always wrong; it's merely "par for the course", to sing of both sweet love, and pain... ..but, that's the blues.....and that's the, Journey of Your Song.
Let the words I speak Be unto you Let the one I seek Be only you And let my heart beat Beat for you And let my soul Burn for you Til I'm consumed Until I'm consumed . Won't you take all of me Until your image in me is all you see But You won't take what I won't give And my sin won't die until You live Inside of me I feel I'm hangin by a thread This old man just isn't dead I keep reviving him instead of trusting You . So Let the words I speak Be unto you Let the one I seek Be only you And let my heart beat Beat for you And let my soul Burn for you Til I'm consumed Until I'm consumed . And when my day comes To an end And I look back at where I have been Many roads I've traveled Sure took a wrong turn now and then I need You just as much right now, as I did back then . So Let the words I speak Be unto you Let the one I seek Be only you And let my heart beat Beat for you And let my soul Burn for you Til I'm consumed Until I'm consumed . Let there never be a doubt That You changed me from the inside out It was only You all along I could never be that strong On my own . Let the words I speak Be unto you Let the one I seek Be only you And let my heart beat Beat for you And let my soul Burn for you Til I'm consumed Until I'm consumed Until everything in me Looks just like You
Where shall I flee? I'm swimming in the waters of misery… And I'm crying a river…I'm saturated in woe How do I think cheerfully? I'm lost in the abyss…and the shadows won't let me be… And I'm bewildered… I'm fighting to break free… (I can't break free… Where do I flee? Why can't I break free?) The spiders are spinning their webs above me… Bless me and untangle me from this madness…please… give me peace…I'm wasting away – They're preying upon me…they're whipping me … warping their way inside of me My saliva drips on the ground…I'm growing numb and I pray The monsters don't attack my heart's desires…if I let them break free, I'll never be the same…I'll never see the light of day Where do I belong? I'm roaming in the fields of blasphemy And I'm crying a river…I feel like an awful disgrace… How do I find a pathway? I'm lost in fields of weeds…they're producing catastrophe And I'm bewildered… I'm trying to finish the race… (I can't keep pace… The sweat is trickling down my face… Why can't I keep pace?) The wasps are chasing after me…where do I flee? Caress me and save me from the distress…stinging me in pleasure…I'm drifting away – They're hovering all around me… they're harassing me…could you wipe away my tears? Find me a place of rest…to make the sufferings end and I pray The darkness will stop spreading lies in my head…if I throw away my fears, I'll never learn to face my fears…I'll never know His way… Where shall I go? I'm roaming in the fields of blasphemy And I'm crying a river…I'm saturated in woe How do I find the key? I'm lost in fields of weeds…they're reproducing catastrophe And I'm bewildered… I'm yearning to let go… I'm learning to cope with my fears… I'm deserting my woe… I'm wiping away the tears... (that has been bottled up for many years… ) The spiders have ensnared me in their webs… I'm in danger…I'm wrapped up in distress… and there is no where to hide… The wasps are tracking me down...I haven't paid my debts… I'm struck in alarm…I'm in a mess… Please stay by my side – catch me as I collide ( We're all together on this ride… ) I can't break free (please relieve me from my despair) Why can't I break free? Where do I flee? (this pain is too much to bear) I can't keep pace (give me the energy to shine like the sun) Why can't I keep pace? Why can't I finish this race? (give me some strength to run)
"Power to the People" doesn't mean anything but realizing your inner ingredients are dignified and can be displayed through your physical When one realizes their own innate potential The impact of togetherness will become a desire & the want to lead from a group of encouraging individuals "Power to the People" isn't indignant Unfortunately most minds don't use their full divine thought process to create a group of social independence So when the mind hears "Power to the People" one automatically thinks revolt Instead of Hope Although after hearing the phrase could be tactically convincing However the word phrase may need clarity "Power to the People" can just mean a One Republic Calvary We as people must realize the importance of unity Its sad we sometimes disenfranchise ourselves & misleads our youths to believe segregation creates a better financial opportunity When truly separation genuinely disintegrate "Power to the People" withstands against evil leading from a divided class of one oppressing the next to misuse trust "Power to the People" is to help us gain reliance Because when political regimes establish laws conveniently offending the people Eventually "All we got is us"
You are in war Day and in night Go you to fight For peace to live Keep heart clean 'cause that the case Don't be alike Whom you dislike When you defeat Whom you defeat Don't do the way Their woe's way Keep your trace On the path of rise Don't be alike Whom you dislike
The lightning in my mind To pierce through the night And now I can not hide The truth has come to light The failure of a man The child had to demand Collapsed in glowing rain Conducting every shame The walls have crumbled down Revealing what I found Before I looked away Truth empowered by the day The night could never last As long as I could ask What have I now betrayed? When will I be okay? There was nowhere I could turn Nothing left to yearn No way could I try But now it burns my eyes The lightning in this storm Unveiling every form Silhouette of what is gone Breaking into dawn And everything is known Beyond the dark below The rain reveals the flow And the fallen start to grow The lightning through my heart Reviving one more start Awake and now at peace The light has pulled me to my feet
(Verse 1) Are you afraid of what you don't understand Maybe its that guiding light in the dead of night Or messages given through the stages of life For me even as a child tomorrow's been whispering clue's (Bridge) Am I a fool for believing in all those dreams Pictures in my mind talking to me Tomorrow is calling today showing my destiny Am I blessed with an inner gift or am I going insane (Hook) Voices of the night Spiritual souls protecting and guiding our lives Voices of the night Spiritual souls helping us to be aware Voices of the night Hints from the other side (Verse 2) When you close your eyes at night.. just visualize Reach your hands out into the air.. just believe. Then open your eyes with surprise Your destiny in the palm of your hands (Bridge) I had another dream last night lots of symbology Children were laughing and playing A little boy waved his hand and a rose appeared I woke up to sunshine and a rose billboard out my window (Hook) Voices of the night Spiritual souls protecting and guiding our lives Voices of the night Spiritual souls helping us to be aware Voices of the night Hints from the other side
The give my life to God, so why Do I pay for this Satan's grip got me, no surprise He was made for this He attacks in the night He just waits for this The moment I slip I Play the game of risk Tossing the die to die Death has placed it's kiss He would not blink an eye If for Christ I would not be dangerous.
This is how I came to be, Born into sin and iniquity. The fall of man, the sin of the earth, Yet Jesus gives me new birth. This is how I come to be, Bitter and angry when someone hurts me. The love I once felt turns to hate. I fall into addiction to escape. This is how I come to be, Overcome with shame, on my knees. Guilt and condemnation overwhelm my soul But God says, "I will restore and make you whole." This is where I come to be, Once again, down on my knees. Bowing before a gracious God, So thankful, amazed and awed. This is where I dream to be, Where streets of gold are all I see. My life here on earth is done, And Jesus shines brighter than the sun.
Silence came to pick at me Mirrored my hypocrisy Selfless greed I pleaded then The fearful need to then repent All I am and could have been What I was and should have seen In an instant through my mind On my knees the glass will shine Reflections singing of a soul Through the darkness light is shown A symphony of quiet sounds Through the silence I am found What is gone has stilled my dreams What's to come will stifle me A deeper hope that I can be Everything I need to see A moment in the mirror's past A thousand years to see at last The only truth beyond this walk The loving place we always sought
Will I have been standing on the sidelines, watching everyone go after their goals. I been missing out on the finer things that life has to offer. Seeing you there reminds me of brighter days. Hearing your laughter, reminds me of the day my dreams all changed. 'Cause, I been blessed, wouldn't change it for the world. Nothing sweeter than you. You're that shining star, the beacon at sea. I thank the good lord for giving me you, nothing can change the love I have for you. Will I have been standing on the sidelines, watching everyone have their fun. Now its later, you can see them down an out. 'Cause, I been blessed, with having you as a daughter. You lifted my heart higher, each day I see you. You're that shining star, the beacon at sea. If I was a sailor, I would hurry home to you. Can't get enough of that laughter, don't like seeing a frown on your face. Will I been standing on the sidelines, watching everyone reach to the stars. When I have one right here. Yes, I been standing on the sidelines. I look at this world, and nothing can change my mind. There be trouble on the horizon, terrible times ahead. People getting hurt, always sad an blue. I put them in prayer as with everyone. 'Cause, I been blessed, with writing these words. A pure melody, straight an narrow, they are flowing like a stream. Nine in the morning, an everything is going to be alright. 'Cause, I been blessed, with this life. Wouldn't to change it, wouldn't to lose it. I would love to share, so here I sit writing these words. Oh, I got a melody running through my head, as I write these words. Sounding like country, maybe its an oldie. But none the less, its pure straight from the heart. Flowing like a river, steady as a stream. Let it span out there, like the clouds in the sky. Showing everyone in the world, that I got this love for them. My heart is being true, it is solid. This thing is flowing like a river, steady as a stream. Nothing rocky bout this love of mine. 'Cause, I been blessed, with having a daughter - who is just like you… 'Cause, I been blessed. 'Cause, I been blessed.. 'Cause, I been blessed…
"Shall I hold back my hand from the rose, because of the thorn?" But the carpet is red that bears the feet of them that have trodden down the grapes; Laid before those who held not back from life because of death! ... It is better to dare than hide!
I was introduced into the vast illusions of life. Some people call it love, others call it a knife. Cutting your skin so you can bleed. Each drop is a distraction from what you need. You close your eyes and take the pain. Then all your worries are temporarily in vain. No progress, no digress Just that moment to believe that more is less. Oh and you grieve from your hopelessness You accept the fact that you have lost your happiness You cry, You scream! Help is what you seek No one hears though, we just ignore and call you a freak All this segregation All this quote on quote integration The only thing it does is make the big seem bigger And the small seem smaller. Belief is the only thing you keep You grasp it so tightly and put it under your feet Each step is a different view You're looking around for something new Eyes stay open, Heart is listening Your intentions are bright and glistening. You want to change from mad And achieve the beautiful emotion of simple glad Battle this depression, get away from this mess and Find a whole new state of mind open for progression. Your voice sounds desperate. Your scars show desperate. You are desperate, and you've made a mess of it. But it's obvious to me, That you can finally see How to overcome the desperation And use your failures as inspiration. Yes, it's obvious to me.
There are Angels in Heaven, that haven't any wings. No miracles or visions or any of those things, that Angels are said to do, to help us along. But, these wingless Angels, they sing the sweetest songs. As they rock the babes in Heaven and hold them to their breast. Fluffing the softest clouds, so as to lay their small heads to rest. They cover them in quilts of love and tenderness. You know these wingless Angels, are God's very best. I know personally, four of the wingless Angels, who love their task. I am sure they volunteered, without being asked. Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa, never needed wings, for they were Angels while on this earth, their praises I sing. As they rock the babes in Heaven and hold them to their breast. Fluff the softest clouds they find, when the babes need rest. Covering them in quilts of love and tenderness. Yes, I know these four wingless Angels, are God's very best. The children flock around Grandpa, to hear his silly jokes. Watch him make bubbles float and blow multi colored rings of smoke. Grandma and Mom, make cookies and cake, fresh from the sun. Making sure as to not run out, sharing with everyone. Dad is making sure the piggy back rides, never stop. He finds the best clouds around, to bounce atop. At night, they rock the babes in Heaven and hold them to their breast. Gathering up the softest clouds, on which to rest. They cover them in quilts of love and tenderness. These four wingless Angels, are God's very best.
Fierce...Frightening...Hateful... Defense...Fear...Braking... Like a hawk chasing a mouse is the way it follows me. Like a child's scream of pain it tortures me. I run. I flee. Begging, screaming to be free. It entangles my limbs like wild growing vines. No matter where I go I trip over the lines. I'm tired of running. Tired of not knowing what to feel. Are these thoughts and feelings my own? Are they real? I lay down and curl up. I decide not to fight. I want to give up. That is MY right. As I begin to give up I feel something new. Anger. Its proud, horrifying and could not be more true. I jump up and let out a howling scream. I will not give up. I will take control. This is my dream. I rip through the vines and pick up my feet. I begin to run forward. I will not retreat. I see something bright. Its so close. I almost gave up. I almost froze. I kept going and found the sunlight. I'm no longer lost. I gave a good fight no matter the cost. Now I've ceased what I want to cease. Close your eyes and breathe. Its peace.
"I can't write poetry- why do I try? I could just as well grow wings and fly!" We all say that when we're feeling blue, It's just one down day- or have you the flu? If you stay awake to the day's stark facts, Poetry won't come 'cause imagination lacks. So forget tomorrow is Monday (homework can wait) Capture that magic moment- before it is too late!
Just the other day a scene caught my eye parents picking flowers for the grave of a child tears filled my eyes as I realized this was the only gift for Christmas they could by but we have hope in gloryland someday we'll meet again what a glad reunion that will be no more pain and strife or loss from this life yes, we have hope over in glory land I have a baby in heaven you see and the angels are holding that baby for me somedays I cry , then I stop and realize Heaven is just a sweeter place for me I have family and loved ones waiting over there just for me and I know they are sick no more Then I start thanking Jesus for The Precious price He paid thanks to Him I have heaven to look for.
My life flutters by, like a butterfly.. a lullaby, Making me cry and sigh, untill I die, I'm lying here thinking.. it's all been a waste, Just a hasty taste, of all the pleasures I've chased. This P.M.A, which I display, every day, Is the only way, I'll make it through.. yeah, I'm Okay, Positivity, with a Darkside twist, Missing the point.. do I even exist? I kissed the lips of fate, now I cannot escape, The caped-crusader, keeps me safe, from ass-rape. I predict, great things! For me, at any rate, Inflating my ego, fashionably late. Now I've arrived, only the Fastest will survive, Use your double talking jive, none will be left alive! But If you don't attack.. I won't have to defend, And send you to Hell, let's pretend this is the end. Draw up a treaty, sweety. What we want is Peace, Not monopoly on World War 3, this madness.. it must cease! Are YOU insane? 'Causing pain? Check your brain! The lame-ass excuses all remaining the same.. again. My Brain's a machine, running at obscene speeds, You don't know my thoughts, my words or all my deeds, My needs are the same as yours.. we both bleed, So read the writing on the wall, and your mind will be freed. They say I'm LoCo.. smoke too much, it's a joke.. oh! My Woman's been messing 'round town.. go get the gun Joe, Slow down! Where you going? I'm just blowing off steam! Blowing up time. In space, can't hear you scream. NO! I'm not mad! I'm totally sane, But it feels like sometimes, we're all on a crazy train. First-class ticket, next stop.. the Asylum, I need the Ghostbusters! There's no answer when I dial 'em! So who am I gonna call? The Police will arrest ME! For aggravated assualt.. they're not getting me easy! Lock me up? With no fags and no drink? I'm gonna go ballistic! You'd better go and fetch the Shrink! You wanna hold me back? Get the Feds and the Army, I'll take some drastic measures if you really wanna harm me! Calm yourself down.. learn to see with both eyes, Time flies.. surprising how fast it slips by.

I had once walk this earth naked and broken With my eyes I could not see Finding a vein in my heart with the pulse of life I no longer walk in the way of deceit I was drifted to the jagged edges of my world and the earth taking from under my feet Arrows of truth killed my sorrow Yesterday is gone, tomorrow is to come, and today I'm at peace.
Wise words never felt so good to the ears of the needy. In this point in life hard times plays a role, we all have certain needs that we believe are so important, like breathing air even though it's not so clear. Clouded thoughts are worst than smog that suffocates positive actions; deep breaths aren't needed still you have to survive; bad judgments burden us all. Then again that's life, what's clear anymore? Emotional bounds broken, so much like a missing link in life. Broken chains doesn't get the job done, though life does go on even if you're feeling alone. The time of healing is a progress; we don't cope well, when trust becomes a main issue, its not going to be easy, just to let go. Holding on to hope like it's the last breathe that you will ever take. Just doesn't feel right not to have something to fight for and it's a battle; to often laughter brought to tears expecting to wash away the pain. Flood gates open, Uncontrollable and unconditional love are just words spoken to deaf ears. It does hurt inside, nothing beautiful about pain as it wears its little ugly head and it continues to smile no matter what we are going through. Consuming what little happiness you have left. We all dream about falling into a place that would change what we always seem to be running from. Could this be our human condition? False hope and Running from our problems. When we just want an open minded dreamer like our selves to verbally express how deep the pain hurts inside, so we cry looking into the mirror ourselves. No matter your condition, your situation, your flaws, No matter what he or she says or have said that seems to crush what your dreams were. The truth is, it hurts. Hold your head up and dry your river of tears. Your role in this life is the reason your still here. No matter the prospective, the pain feels the same as we wait for things to fall into place.
Who called me on that silent foggy road? LIFE, You are who called me to live you! You offered me comforts like earthly dew And I accepted those like a hungry toad. Shoving aside the dangerous tricky path, I will move on, go on, and then start anew My life through the divine celestial bath. LIFE,I will live You! LIFE, I will live You!
You can't see me but you can hear me out, I'm always around you always helping you out, I tell you the rights and the wrongs, what life we're among, you can follow and I'll lead, I'll show you where to be, keep your head up straight and your eyes open wide, my best advice is to do what you try, never lose hope cause you need to succeed, man, I'm your conscience you gotta believe in me, I know this life to your left, to your right, why do you think I'm here for, just to entertain you every night? I got your answers to your questions but you ain't hearing me out, you're up in your life trying to figure yourself out...
Dreamer, never give up on the unrealized dreams of yesterday; and with nothing but hope... you can imagine them shine, even brighter than the furthest star... when your sky has no other light! Dreamer, don't put them away; see in strides: a courageous heart! Lay them out on the pathways... where everyone can see them with a clear view; dreams are lived out by those who are free to trust and love anyone of their choice... to let emotions speak with an inner voice; dreamer, you can have them, too! You could think of a possibility, and turn it into a certainty; never passing up that chance... to paint the unrealized dreams of yesterday with lively colors that can only be found in a rainbow that delights all senses! Aliveness comes form a surge of profound awareness... that awakening to life may seem an illusion, so dreamer realize the dreams of yesterday with all thoughts and joys set on tomorrow, and let them swirl within and immensely grow... by not letting others interfere with your happiness, which is often threatened by another intrusion; dreamer, hold them in your grasp...don't let them get away!
I watch you play upon the stairs, Lost in your childhood games, Built by your imagination, With freedom and no restraint. Today you are a sailor, The captain of your ship, Sailing on the ocean sea, Procuring a long summer trip. You sing a song That you have loved, Words of an old lullaby, You sing a song on the stairs today, Singing loud—you're not shy. The stairs are now a jungle, A land that you explore, With a monkey and a zebra, A tiger and a vicious wild boar. You pretend you're on a skyscraper High up in the sky, Playing like you're really there, And wishing you could fly. Once again, you're hungry, Therefore, you stop and eat your lunch, You'll be a chef in your own shop, There's not much time to stop. The stairs are now a cherry tree In your own loved backyard, With grass and flowers, and bumble bees, Except in this tree, you cannot scrape your knees. The stairs yet again, a mountain top Reaching high into the sky, But all too soon, it's evening time And now, no more time to climb.
my life was mere existence inner being barren and lost a spiritual abyss I was unprepared to cross I walked in a winters rain forsaken by those I loved my weary body protected only from the storm above You knew Your child had wandered, despair, a beckoning hole You took me from the tempest and into your place of hope dwelling in your home of warmth my dispiriting chill fades Your light calms my inner storm, awareness dawns, I am safe
Allah is the Most Kind Allah, please never mind. Allah can see and hear Allah, please grant prayer. Allah can speak freely Allah, please talk to me. Allah is the Best King Allah, please do something. (Amen)
I've always dreamed of getting away from the block. With the wise words that I've spoken I've always hoped that i could make it like Pac. Because through my eye's I've seen much death in the streets I've seen the theft and the murder some of the things that people do just to eat. I've seen confusion in the eye's of the youth Back when i was a child i was confused now i'm only speaking the truth. I was confused about the life i would lead If i would make it through school where they would teach me how to write or to read. Or if i'd fall to the streets and the code Where selling drug is your job and the rule is never snitch never fold. Where if you told then that's the end of your life Plus your brother, your sister,your mom and dad you'd have no chance to think twice. I've seen that poverty a problem we face When you're i a society where almost all are of the brown skinned race. So many struggles tell me what should i do Because if you had all these problems leaving the block would be a dream for you to...

When the eclipse of Sun darkens entire universe, The drought-infested soil waits for tender shower. Love comes, delivers it from that dreadful curse, Pouring its enlightening shower from holy bower. All pains, struggles, sufferings seem non-existent When there is love, when there is love's presence. After eclipse, sun appears brighter, clear, content. After stings of Dark, Love brings a luminescence. The lamp of love enlightens interiors of the heart Where vermin try to eat up the veins of morality. Love renews the heart by clearing the fallen dirt, Awakens drowsy world with trumpet of equality.
I lost you long ago Before we ever met, When your heart was forged in steel By one whose name shall rest unsaid. Still, one day we will be young again, Ten thousand summers gone. A glance across a shadowed street Will catch our fleeting breath. Deep dark eyes that held in thrall A love beyond recall, Will stir a hidden well of life, Within my whispered soul. Your smile will bear the distant words Of long forgotten friends, Their dreams to cast a spell for us From God's immortal height. Though this world will sweep away All memories, all pain, Our light will touch this place and fill These captured hearts, once more. Heaven itself may rise and fall, The dust of angels drift, But I would neither see, nor care, If this time together's all.
Sometimes when I triumph I fall right back to my knees If I can't keep your peace Then what does it really mean I've been looking out my window I've been searching for a smile And all I've come to grasp A mother's widowed child And I don't write your songs Cause I don't know your wrongs In this garden no one walks alone And I can't speak for all But I'm right there when you fall No I don't have your love And I can't touch your heart I've fallen from above And I've been broken down But I've been thinking of Another Sunday morning Sometimes when I triumph I realize the worlds still learning I've been tunneling through a burner My dear Amelia I am the heir to your heart And it's been a hell of a summer So push me through the wind I just need you to see me through Breathe air into my lungs Give me the strength to carry on "Songs in gray"

If what I feel is true Don't know how to explain That my heart was heavy once And didn't know what to do I was gloomy and darkness fell over me, all at once I thought that I was through And was going straight to hell Chorus But then you came to me And entered in my heart And now that I am free Promise with you to never part I need you, Lord, to know How desperate I did feel Didn't think that I would make it And saw it all so real The bad became the worse And the worse became so real And their teachings that I heard Never happy would make me feel Chorus But then you came to me And entered in my heart And now that I am free Promise with you to never part My heart became a stone Didn't know that I could feel This LOVE that you give me And my sins away you peeled Now I'm grateful, Lord And full of love I feel Not only for you, God But I feel I love the world And most important, Lord I feel I Love myself Because You came to me, Oh Lord And entered in my heart And now that I am free Promise never from you to part And become so lovingly And stretch out my hand to thee No matter what it is you feel Prayer will set you free So believe and faith will never fail And let God's love in you prevail
Oh God! Give me light Please make me fight Oh God! Make me bright Please make me rise Oh God! Bless my heart Please make the darkness depart Oh God! Bestow on me love Please make me realize That happiness or sadness Be there sunrises or sunsets Be it good days or bad… They happen only to proclaim Your might and your insight Please God ! Pour on me peace Let the turmoil decease! Make me strong Make me bold Today and forever Make me yours!
Jaded is the heart that rests alone cadenced, tirelessly out of tune Audacious is the heart that finds another captivating, blissfully intoxicated
Your song, A Beautiful Child, touched my heart long ago, inspired to love beauty I could never hold, inspired to love beauty from afar. I am the sleepless child who grew tall enough to reach a star. You sang of feelings that remain After the Glitter Fades, and I listened to the sound. Late at night, I dreamed I was Rhiannon, visions kept to myself of a bird in flight, a night bird taken by the wind. Unforgettable songs of love and joy, sorrow and pain, wash over me like Silver Springs, Violet and Blue. The songs from your Book of Miracles lift me on a White-Winged Dove. Feelings of freedom soar in my soul. The higher I fly, the more fragile love becomes, but the heart is strong when we sing. Resilient, I find the courage to carry on, triumph over trials, leather compliments lace. Your voice rings clear like a bell in the still of night. You ask the mirror in the sky, what is love? Bolder with age, I seek to find my own answers. The Gypsy in my soul searches for more. Sometimes, I find my own reflection and a brazen heart. Sometimes, I find an innocent child, shy and unassuming. All of life is lyrics set to music. In the deep colors of night, I hear your voice. for What Songwriter or writers Inspire you????

Hail to the Savior! Born in a manger of hay. He came to ransom poor, lost sinners; He came to take their sin away. Oh, hail Him, hail the Son of God, Sing praise to His name. Born in Bethlehem, the city of David, Of a virgin born upon that day. Born the king, and yet He's born so humbly, In a stable, there in the manger He lay. Hail to the Savior! Hail to the Savior! Risen up from the grave! He rose to conquer death's dominion; He rose, our souls to eternally save. Oh, hail Him, hail the Lamb of God, Sing praise to His name. His blood, the pure eternal sacrifice, Was shed upon the rugged tree. They crucified Him on that mountain; He arose from sin to set us free. Hail to the Savior! These words written to "Ave Maria."
I'm so happy that you can yell at everyone I'm so happy that you can express youself I'm so happy that this world isn't what you expected I'm just so parched that your so high up on your horse And now I'm mad, now I'm sad, now I just dont understand Why you care about two people fallin in love Why you care if I drink or if I do drugs I just wanna scream into your eyes Make you realize that what you say isn't always right Now right and wrong, it's all opinion Black and white, yes I think they deserve, to be colors too So how about me and you, is there any truth You cant change the world with one voice if the tongue is burned I'm so happy that you can climb a mountain high I'm so happy that you think its my job to be the wife Yeah I'm so happy that your such a hypocrit I'm so grateful for you to tell me lies And now I'm mad, now I'm sad, now I just dont understand Why its your job to fix us all And preach your words to a raging band Someday you will see That there is more than just degree In this world that we praise peace Peace is lost in the sea
BUTTERFLY WINGS I do appreciate your being here But one day soon you know I'll disappear. And when I fly, I'll fly on butterfly wings. I know you see someone you think is me. But nothing's really what it seems to be, and when I fly I'll fly on butterfly wings. Bright light. Never ending white light. All my life a sweet ride, on butterfly wings. Highway. Always going my way I'll keep going my way, on butterfly wings. Out there I'll be going somewhere and I'm going to get there, on butterfly wings Bright light never ending white light all my life a sweet ride, on butterfly wings. It's not that I don't care, you know I do. And you can feel it, when I think of you, and when I fly, I'll fly on butterfly wings. This is one of my personal favorite poems I have written that developed into a Song Lyric. It is on Youtube, as a video as well.
Port of Call Barefoot on a talcum beach, alone, not lonely, with the breath of the ocean a caressing balm, soothing pained memories away, to the swaying of a solitary palm. Barefoot on a talcum beach, alone, not lonely, feeling the brushing away of all past turmoil, on a quest for solace, ever so hard to find, yet comforted by the crashing of the waves, as the tide cleanses all pain, and leaves despair far, far behind. Barefoot on a talcum beach, alone, not lonely, drenched in a sea-breeze of mist, that hushes the ache of bygone moons, tasting the salty tang on my lips, as the burnished sun, over the distant horizon, swoons, and dips. Barefoot on a talcum beach, alone, not lonely, searching, ever searching, for a slice of solitude, as memory bids a final adieu, reaching under the sea so vast, and seeking comfort in the depths, while embracing, the tomorrows to come, wishing that they be true. Barefoot on a talcum beach, alone, not lonely, seeing my truths drown, as they slip beneath the turquoise waters, feeling my heart ablaze, with a passion that rarely falters. Barefoot on a talcum beach, alone, not lonely, yet knowing that I am home at long last, wishing the waves would wash away, the defences that once stood, like an impregnable wall. Barefoot on a talcum beach, alone, not lonely, I have found, at long last, my final port of call.
Pounding against the shore My heart beats Filling up my face, my hands, my cheeks with heat Tears begin to role. Tumbling down, like fireballs. Passionate …igniting, reviving as it goes Why oh why! Am I at despair? Vulnerable! Exposed! My heart stripped bare An open book for you to read Yet shaken up with despair I feel The thunder of doubt begins to creep Never have I embarked on this before Yet unknowingly, deep down I yearn! I crave for more A sea of contemplation, an abyss of hazy expectations Pounding against the shore my heart beats Filling my face, my cheeks, my hands… As you go, with heat Rising me to utmost crest Elevating higher then Mount Everest Loving you more all the way But yet! I dare not undrape my sentiments For you, like others might not cradle them For fear of freefalling Yet….i hear your heart shrieking out my name Half shocked, half heart, I am to blame.
Awash in darkness and disguise Mistaken for light in my denial The truth a fiction in my eyes Refracting dispassion as I lie The thousand eyes that gaze into This broken mess I took from youth I claim a shell crafted by you The thousand hands that ran me through Now twisted, poisoned and possessed I'm half a demon, half obsessed With overcoming all regrets I want to climb beyond myself In my convoluted disrepair I am between love and despair I only wish to one day share The self that vanished when I got scared Now host to darkness and the light At constant battle through these nights My dreams will grant these creatures sight But in duality I realise Without the light I would not see That without darkness I'd not breathe And through this war I will conceive The strongest self through clarity These tools of war are now my own A balanced self has finally grown The Angel vigilant and known The Demon, tamed, now guards this home
I have given up on life, I have resigned to fate, thinking I could not have found it, love. I tried but could not just make it work. All the best I thought was my dedication turned to work out against my desire. All I wanted was to find that one woman meant for me As much as I tried, I couldn't just make it happen. Then I thought I was just not good enough. And I wondered how other people do it. I wonder how they make it happen. To me, it is a miracle that is unattainable. How they live so happily in love. I always wondered but felt it was not meant for me to have a feel of. An object of mockery for others I became because a lonely life i was living Then suddenly... Out of the blues you appeared, all clothed in white robe. You made straight towards me and i wondered who you were Then I looked again and then realized who you are I realized you are my Angel of love. I thought I was dreaming then you called my name and i realized it was not a dream The value of my patience was found in you Then I realized loving would not have been better if it was not with you. In you I have found joy, peace and dignity. In you I have found all the woman I have ever wanted. Then I realized I could not have been more luckier. I LOVE YOU
~My Easter Prayer~ You came into this world A tiny baby A king who needed no crown Here to save all sinners A natural born leader You lead by example Lived what you preached You love all Never judge a soul Healing the sick Feeding the hungry Bringing peace and joy You never turn anyone away Watching over us Even to this day You are a good listener You guide us on our way In troubled times You are always there To carry us through Like "Foot Prints in the Sand" Sometimes we may stray Yet you are still there Ready to embrace us Loving us all the same When we ask for help You give us what we need It may not always be what we ask for And we may not always understand Yet it works out in the end You know me inside out I feel you with me No matter where I am I Love you so much I know I don't say it enough In this life I have been blessed With many more blessings to come I know While at times I ask for so much I have forgotten to say two simple words That says so very much So here I am right now to say Thank You Lord With this My Easter Prayer Love Always, Jean Bonella
For the person I am and the person you are For the times we are together and the times we are apart For the times we have cried and the times we have shared For the times we have laughed and you showed me you cared For the places we have traveled and the places we have seen From the moment you proposed on a bended knee For the honesty you have shown and the truth you have told I know in my heart our love will never get old For bringing out the sun on a most dreary day For going to the doctors to see that everything will be okay For the little notes and the little letters For letting me know things will always get better I Shall Always Treasure you for so many things And always be grateful you loved only me..
A life with no sun Makes a soul sad and dreary You seek the things of this world Still, no happiness you find But when Jesus steps in Your days become brighter For he changes your heart And gives you peace of mind Just open the door When the Savior comes knocking Don't turn him away Just welcome him in Take hold of his hand When he reaches out for you Just ask for his mercy And all your sins he'll forgive Don't sit there in gloom Heartbroken and weary For He can rid all the pain That you feel inside The things of this world Only last for a season But God's gracious love Will forever abide So open the door For the Savior is knocking Don't turn him away Just welcome him in Take hold of his hand For he's reaching out for you Just ask for his mercy And all your sins he'll forgive
Twixt And between Never quite there But never will I stop. I work and ponder Forever moving Searching around and about. There are times I wonder, where I really am? Will I ever achieve my goals? And what are the goals I'm searching for? Are they really what I want? Do I know which way to go? Or should I start all over and begin again? We're all here at times in our lives… Till every thing will finally become clear. Then, some how I'll be there again: Twixt and between Never quite there… Here I go again. Fluff Contest: This poem is definately full of fluff.
Dedication to unconditional love and soul salvation I AM the ONE who loves thee The ONE who cared enough to die for thee I AM HE who redeemed thee The ONE who rose from the dead to comfort thee I AM the ONE who will always be with thee The ONE who will never forsake thee I AM HE who is integrity The ONE who imparts truth in thee I AM HE who was sent to save thee The ONE who bore all your infirmities I AM HE who will come back for thee Just be a soul who truly loves ME YESHUA
I must sit down and turn around be mindful as I sit, the reason you can't see my face is it's covered with your spit! This gravy-train is quite insane I chew my food real good; I have a way of saying things but I'm so, misunderstood! It's alright, I'll be polite and say what's on my mind; if negatives breed negatives I'll be the other kind. With borrowed soap, I can't lose hope and air my cares outside; if the time's not right and at this height, it'll be impossible to hide! Tweedle-dee, and tweedle-dum no worries in the rain; all my good and bad times end up going down the drain. Seems to me my final plea won't say as much as yours; my journey's almost over while you've still a lot more doors !
Ramblin' Bob Dylan Blues (For Bob Dylan) Why does the sun dry up so many scattered tears slipping down the coarse cheek of a million hushed fears where no one is scalded though the searing fog clears while prayers are mutely spoken even as the end nears We shatter and scrape on demented knees Blindly begging for mercy as it silently flees Searching listlessly for salvation drowned in the breeze That spits at the soft rose suffocated by a wheeze I know now what I need never have known Of hope that was trampled before it had flown Into a wasted sky filled with hate that could drown The giggling of the crowd and the crying of the clown A hope so fragile that its wings were of brittle glass Ripping the veneer off the sewers of class Twisting the fabric of the weighed and costed mass Who numbly waited hoping that it too may pass For when shards of that hope in all hearts scurries away To a darkness where crowded night is emptied off the heaving tray 'Tis then when sewn eyes shall behold that doleful day When all shall tear at each other while on demented knees we still shall pray For a lifting of the veil of that wilful deceit That's wrapped up in a flag swollen with conceit While the limbs splinter in the claw of a winner's defeat Yet still the drums roll for the ill-fated souls chose never to retreat From that drenched battle-ground where blood flows through a sieve And love's lost song plaintively begs for a reprieve From eternal loss which into raw emotion does cleave Only to slip through the fingers and like grains of sand, leave.
Where did my mind go? Did it fly away on the back of a star, did it hitch a ride to heaven? Where is my mind now? Well, it's flying high in the place where the eagles soar. Floating through space now, on the back of a psychedelic rainbow train. Will it come back again? PRE-CHORUS And I said, Hey, I just wanna stay insane. Don't wanna come back to this sad reality. Hey, I don't wanna feel this pain - Just wanna wake up one day not being me... CHORUS I've gotta run baby, run baby, run baby, run baby, run away. Fly baby, fly baby, fly baby, fly baby, each and every day. Spread my wings, touch the sky, catch broken dreams. Yeah, yeah. Not what it seems. Yeah, yeah. Where did my love go? Did it disappear like smoke in a cloud? Does it shine right through the Heavens? Will I ever stop searching, or will you write my name in never-ending tears? Where is my love now? Well it's spinning round in currents forever gone. Just remember the way now. Don't lose myself in a million empty ways. Just keep counting the days. PRE-CHORUS And I said, Hey, I just wanna stay insane. Don't wanna come back to this sad reality. Hey, I don't wanna feel this pain. Just wanna wake up one day not being me.... CHORUS I've gotta run baby, run baby, run baby, run baby, run away. Fly baby, fly baby, fly baby, fly baby, each and every day. Spread my wings, touch the sky. Catch broken dreams, Yeah, yeah Not what it seems, Yeah, yeah. I'll catch my dreams, Yeah, yeah.
BORN AT 47 I am born , now at the age of forty seven I am surprised, as I seemingly feel The same fresh air of thrill May be how the freedom starved folks felt In the historic year of nineteen forty seven. The early days passed away with distracted aims The appreciated hidden talents were just like some game. The happy go lucky nature, never led me to a special feature So many chances, so many goals, Looked like a long way with many a pot holes! The path of an achiever had never been so easy, A slight change in decision, made my life busy. I acted many roles, as if on a stage at motion Mother,daughter,tutor, partner, all with great devotion Some deeds were applauded, some remained unsung Some feathered me a perfectionist,but most seemed undone. Mixed feelings went side by side,creating an unknown apprehension The prized acts of my progeny were my only aspiration. Years passes by,responsibilities changes, Days became less tiresome, nights full of avenges. The bejeweled life filled with ethical deem, Left me a non living, without any esteem. In such a lifeless forlorn evening A little friend held my arms And led me to the path of silver lining I am born again..........afresh anew In an ecstasy of finding out The hidden and lost views. A part of my own soul, A part of my heartbeat A daughter turned friend nurtured my dreams In a fashion offbeat. Now I have a new little world of my own Where nobody can question or show me a frown. I fill my heart with music I fill my mind with words I feel the urge to step ahead Of the never ending crowd So what,if I am not an opportunist! So what, if I am not a protagonist! I'm still enjoying my budding fragrance In a golden dawn, breaking the cloud of mist
You can pin me down and take everything from me. Thinking you really do something but it'll make me come back stronger. Say some things thati'll have you cry,frightened,or have a heart attack. Take my family,friends, and other things i love that are important to me. Ill show you how weak i can be. Don't stir up the gemini that lies inside. I've done many things I've said many things I've seen many things I've felt many things Things that made me want to die Although my craziness hasn't begin to subside. I was born to a soldier, from her i became a soldier. Watched her knock down brick wall and break out steel cages. Saw her fall when there was no hope. Got back up when we called. Fierce as a snake as loving as any great mother can be. From her I learned even when everything is on you use what you got, don't depend on anyone else.
"Jesus speak unto my heart, with your calm serenity. Your joyful presence all about, sets my mind at ease. Guide me with divine direction, a blessing given me. With inspiration light my path, so my eyes can see. Jesus to you I draw closer, as my spirit you set free. The tender kindness of your mercies, forever I receive. Influence my thoughts upon this morn, in you I do believe. As you now set my course, across life's stormy seas…" Lord cast my eyes on the shores of a vision: an ocean of dreams awaits to sail; casting aloft into this early morn. You've set my course and my destination, avoiding the reefs of black betrayal, rising above the darkened seas of scorn. On winds of direction Lord guide my vessel, true faith in quest of love's ambitions: sailing along into forevermore. Headed across those uncharted waters, riding the waves of life's transitions, predestined to greet that hallowed shore. I feel it drawing near, shore of visions loom. A yearning deep inside, I've felt for many moons. Through oh so many years, lost in stormy gloom. Dreams I've fantasized, shore of visions loom. For many a nights being purged of darkness: sailing through the ides of twilight; I feel your Holy Spirit now on board. When there in the distance I see the shoreline, sparkling joys of glorious delights: it's truly closer than it's ever been before! I feel it drawing near, shore of visions loom. My dreams are realized, knowing that it's soon. All my fallen tears, into the depths entombed. Jesus is calling me to fly: shore of visions loom…! Brother Christian

Sever all connection Strip down every word And deeper into nothing The questions are prepared A violence in forgiving A desperation in our flow With damaged, lost opinions We decided not to grow But sever this sedated Mimicry of life Understand the search for reason Before we die within our strife A season of redemption A dying forest for our mind But through it we find meadows That bare the fruits of our design Severed from our fears Stripped of every thought And deeper in our questions We find the answers we had sought

I'm praising the Lord, will you come and join me, Praising His name all through the day. I'm praising the Lord, will you come and join me, And we will be blessed along the way. Singing praise to Him just makes me happy, Iknow that my prayers He will fulfill. He is my Father and He loves me, So I shall always do His will. Praising the name of the One who loves me, Jesus, He came to set me free, I was a sinner on lifes highway, He was the One who showed the way. Let your praise reach up to heaven, There it will please the Heavenly Host. Honest prayer is sure to please Them, Father, Son and Holy Ghost. © Dave Timperley 2012 Sung to the tune of High on a hill stood a lonely goatherd or the Yodel song from The Sound of music.
Cast into hatred by all I'd seen I blinded myself to escape disease Then numbness commanded this lost machine And all that was left was what could have been Searching for gold I could not decide Why to be when what's left is a frightened lie This paradox threw me beneath the sky And above holy ground I then realised Born into silence I witnessed hate Overcome by the violence to then sedate Emotions examined to then relate To recapture the moments we witness fate Writing; redeeming to improve sight To examine my fears will give birth to flight The past turns to future, and overnight My wings have expanded to gather light Cast into beauty by all I know With a vision connected to every soul And a memory that proves that we can all grow And that beyond every fear our spirit flows
An afternoon stroll with a friend on a heated day, Her hair perfectly swaying to her giggle bounce Holding her tummy, simply stating "I have a baby on the way" Hugs, kisses, dreams and wishes For this Mrs The sun shining inside and out So lucky she felt that day, she has a baby on the way Baby's daddy holds mommy's hand Says thank you honey, I love you so much Our baby is lucky to have your heart And I'm so blessed to wear your band A visit to the doctor turned perfect joy into shock You have cancer he told her You won't live with this life in you Sit soon with your husband and have a talk Hugs, kisses, dreams and wishes For this Mrs. The sun shines brightly on this day Cause she still has her baby on the way Her husband crying uncontrollable tears Loving her so He could never ever let her go He can't choose he doesn't want to lose His wife or his child She knew for her this baby was a voice A wish she made so long ago A wish come true And there was no one telling her what to do It was ultimately her decision, her choice Six years have passed, and Emily asks, "Daddy, when will I see mommy?", Today my sweet angel, Today Hugs, kisses, dreams and wishes For this Mrs The sun still shining on this day as Emily kneels to pray For mommy Mommy had made her choice And daddy still hurts so bad, he misses her smile, her touch But he holds Emily today with Mommy's light warming them both His deep indescribable love for Emily sustains him On her birthdays Hugs, kisses, dreams and wishes For Emily The sun still shining on this day her hair perfectly swaying to her giggle bounce, as she plays,
Underneath my dream, idea tree with full access to my library where the moments only count if your breath's away; tread softly through the canopy's veil it's anyone's guess, in this odd tale; are they at work? Are they at rest? Or will they play? ~ So quick! Am I to sanitize each moment bold, I categorize; so I know when one does end, and the next shall start; breathe each one in, or turn to stone after all they're yours, and yours alone you gave to each one "life", inside your heart! ~ Not one thing can better describe the essence of a soul's own vibe, than, what prompts a heart to quicken like the birds; we've each had footprints shadow made, but, sunlit footprints never fade; when our breath's away, each legacy needs no words ! ~
Why do you see me by the colour of my skin and not the depth of what lies within, why do you blame the culture I'm from instead of seeing me as just a human, why don't you research history and see my success and victory through slavery? I walk into your shop, thinking I'm there to steal so your security follow me like I'm on twitter but no I'm better. Don't snare me for my shade because of your hate or other bad elements, I'm eloquent and decent. My greater parents did the time, almost like they were sentence to life, treated like swines when it was just the colour of our skin suffering the brutal torment of your sins. I don't hate you, yes I blame you, yes I would irradiate the thoughts of your hate so you'd have no reason to celebrate and hate on my beautiful shade, yet you sit in the sun to emulate.
Dysfunctional Interventions Dysfunctional interventions Spiritually twisted at times Not to mention these convictions weighing heavily above me Who are you to judge me? I have one life to live What, do you have more? The way you skate on thin ice you should already be sore Those notes written across your lips that you spit so swift like a bat out of hell Your soul you try to sell Oh, but wait…that's your wishing well What you wish upon me Shall be done to you Cause God don't like ugly If only you knew My demeanor is refreshing Always count my blessings My ambition is so futuristic But you push me off to the side line Like your quarter backs fill-in Could you tell me what the deal is? Maybe he is prince-charming With envisions like me But you turn it into an investigation Like it's a crime scene Is it a crime to be happy? Or is this jealousy and envy that surround us constantly Explanation from ignorance doesn't suit me Knowledge from wisdom circulates me frequently These extremities exceed The means of living way beneath And these proceedings from predictions Are dysfunctional interventions By: Aleasha A. Martin
Angels caught by the ocean A distant dream for me to see Where wild birds sway into motion Where coming clouds encumber me Visions of every answer Droplets through the prison cell The shackles burn like a cancer As memories of the water fell I am lost for no reason Never more than I recall This past now settles the seasons As I become, the angels fall No more sights to reveal me Not much left to be declared And war just waits for a treaty Betray you all, because I'm scared Blind death sending a letter Strikes a nail into my heart What will be for this murder Will become when I depart A lost bird guides me to oceans Tears of loss recall the seas And as angels flock to this notion So suddenly, I'm swept into dreams
there's a dream inside to possible the impossibility to make sense a non sense to believe the unbelievable i think that what makes a faith is there's a dream inside to bliss the unhappiness to let go a depression to release frighten i think that what makes a dream alive it's harder to breathe when you keep on waiting on your dream but it's easier to live when you believe in your dream dare to be different dare to be the unusual dare to believe the unbelievable i think that's what makes your dream alive when your days are weary...just dream when your nights are cold...just dream when your heart's breaking...just dream because life is part of a dream just dream
Deep within the cavity chest You'll find its striding place Safely tucked away To live once more – each day: to note the passing seasons autumn's rise and fall of spring the winter's beast that howls the summer's hot, hot winds. where there is love and fantasy where kisses never end where tangled sheets breathe fire as lovers twist and bend. in scraped knees a howling dog at moonlight where catfights cringe the skin. when letter's from a long, lost friend bring tears, and sniffles, and grins. when words fail others when feelings are lost where communication ends . . . a poet's words begin. a poet's heart beats fire it beats of truth, aspires in every face, on every land . . . it beats fierce – with Ayer!
Mirror Your heart Shatters to shreds You splinter me Your reflection haunts me forever I reflect on you I don't wanna lose you I am snowed under by your rejection I don't wanna lose my head But, I love you forever You haunt me Your reflection... Tramples my infection Your heart Blurs
My life, I now do see, Is all in vain, but Thee, I wish to dedicate, My life for all eternity. I once did wonder why I'd come to life and sighed, But now I know my task, is to Live for you and always fight. I'd cry and cry to feel, The sense of aim, so dear, But as I searched my soul, I knew that I was nowhere near. But when thy presence came, I realized my aim, And did resolve to do What pleased Thee rather than complain. So now I do declare That I shall always glare, And draw more souls to share The pleasures of Thy kingdom, rare.
Daddy now, please pray with me, for today I'm sailing stormy seas. I know you say you're but a man, who tries to live the Master's plan. I'm weathering gray storms, except a few, and the turmoil would drown me, if not for you. The wind is so strong, the waves are so high, Tattered sails against the sky! And I recall you telling me, of Jesus Christ, Who calmed the seas. And yes, small faith can the mountains move, and how He died His love to prove. So Daddy now, please pray with me, to God's sweet Son, Who dwells in me. For I am daughter of a man, and weak at times and cannot stand against these tides of shifting sands. You say, "He's still upon His throne", and with our prayers, I'm not alone! And God is good and loves me still, He will offer strength to swim these swells. Oh Daddy now, please pray with me, Some choices I made were not of Thee. At times I've wandered and gone astray, I feel somehow I've lost my way. Tell me again my right hand he still holds, and how in heaven the streets are gold, and once we're there no one is old because now Jesus holds my soul! Daddy now please pray with me like when I was a child of three beside my bed on bended knees. And perhaps somehow these words I write, may move another to change their lives, for Jesus loves me this I know and his blood has washed me white as snow. And when you've said "In Jesus Name" I feel brand new and not the same, so daddy now please pray with me though I am grown and no longer three. He'll lift me up on wings of love and forgive me of all the wrong's I'v done! Then I can drop my anchor deep and mend white sails on peaceful seas!
Living Proof Of A Miracle God makes it happen… In 2005, I was insecurely denied…my dreams broken and heart shattered as the devil tried to work beneath overtime. The doctor walked in and said, "I'm sorry but you have cancer." The thoughts in my mind left my body bruised and battered. In 2008, my condition went from moderate to severe. I had to make a change; I decided to get saved. My God then forgave…but the thoughts in my mind had me askin', "Why is life worth livin?" So I continued back down the road of insecurities and sinnin'… When 2009 came, the surgeon walked in, again, put his head down and looked back up at me…I just kept thinking, "What could it be?" He said, "Sweetie, I'm sorry!" Your cancer is going full blown and it can't be healed." I let the tears fall as God caught them saying, "I know you know I'm real!" "So turn to me and I'll set you free, but I couldn't turn yet cause' I was so stuck on me. So here I was in 2010, stuck with an illness, loss of a job, sleepless and fearful nights, and sickly sobs…sometimes it takes a disaster to come into your home, trying to break down your state of mind and get into your soul. This darkness that surrounded me, was feeling much too cold. So, I prayed for a new direction, and they sat and prayed with me…On August. 11, 2010 the surgeon walked in with tears in his eyes and said, "Honey, you're free…I gave my life to him. God has healed my cancer and he can heal you just the same. No matter what the situation, just be sure to have full faith. For I am, living proof of a miracle… By: Aleasha A. Martin
Deep longing of the soul Seeking subtle satisfaction Wandering through the day, Plagued with unrest Chasing the wind Gliding with autumn leaves Another year to culminate in gloom? O searching soul Rest is prepared for you A bed of hope to lie in A field of dreams to harvest from There is but one way If you will, I beg you, Do not stray The path of peace was made for you …and marked on Christmas day
I want to make sure I'm not falling on my face... And I`m willing to go the distance And I want to bring back good memories... I want to make sure You`re safe and you`re in a safe place But GIVE ME some space Sometimes, I wake up...feeling so distressed But GIVE ME your sweet grace And we'll beat the race...and this pain we share will not be addressed I don't want to be unsure - am I the one losing the race? And I'm chilling in this heavenly place And I need to trade you my apologies… I don't want to waste your time You're absolutely safe…as long as you keep pace
Here is the finished revised Lyric for Bipolar. The song can be heard at my poetry website vbdosa.com and then clicking the Bipolar link. BIPOLAR Sometimes I can feel a magic like I've never known. I could run a thousand miles. Run a thousand miles. Sometimes it's more like I'm dying here all alone. Sometimes I think I'll die alone. Sometimes I can reach out for you, but you're made of stone. I could die a thousand times. Die a thousand times. Sometimes it's more like you're showing me I'm not alone. Sometimes I think I'm not alone. Euphoria. Up and down. In and out. Up and down. Euphoria. Sometimes I can feel a magic like you've never known. I could run a thousand miles. Run a thousand miles. Sometimes it's more like you're showing me I'm not alone. Sometimes I think I'm not along. Up and down. In and out. Up and down. In and out. Euphoria. Then I'm down. Down. Down. Euphoria. Then I'm down. Down. Down. © ron wison
A prisoner of darkness Was all I could be. Trapped and alone inside Along a blackened sea No one to hold me To keep me alive Completely abandoned No reason to survive. Then there was a light Small but getting brighter It drowned out the darkness And made me a fighter. . . Before i'd go with everything And let them chain me down Now I start to question them I start to keep my ground. Why should I let them stab me? And see my blood run free There's a reason that I need to live To let myself be me. No one holds me down Without paying a price. Why should they anger me Then expect me to be nice? I now... Have a beating heart And a gleam in my eyes Someone to kiss and hug me And keep my soul alive.
I look in the mirror and see the years gone I can look beyond the glass out the window To the yards of my childhood I can smell the flowers and feel the grass 'neath my feet. I can hear the music blasting on the radio Mama callin' me for supper. I yearn to go back to that danged town I fought to get away and never look back, I never wanted to live there again. I guess there's a piece of me There in that little town. The town is small and so are the events You're everyone's business You can get a break and can't get away You don't even have a say You go to and from and people protest And those same people will still put you to the test I yearn to go back to that danged town I fought to get away and never look back, I never wanted to live there again. I guess there's a piece of me There in that little town. I made it to the big town K.C, Got myself a husband and a son and a place to live Settled in and made a life, got a career I swear I'll never return to my best friend Comfortable where I stand, Happy where I am I yearn to go back to that danged town I fought to get away and never look back, I never wanted to live there again. I guess there's a piece of me There in that little town. Well times are hard, And people are ruthless in this cut throat time Jobs are scarce and bills run high You never know what you'll hear at night The people are small in this big town Yeah people are small in this big town I yearn to go back to that danged town I fought to get away and never look back, I never wanted to live there again. I guess there's a piece of me There in that little town. I guess the town is small Just good ol' boys and girls havin' fun Small place, small town, small world People may talk and people may watch But the biggest thing in that small town Are the people after all. I yearn to go back to that danged town I fought to get away and never look back, I never wanted to live there again. I guess there's a piece of me There in that little town. -Heather Birdwell 9/22/2009

with song and dance a sun ray bloom of birth through clouds sullen and bruised a day of joy celebration abound nothing can stop a love profound won't you take my hand and dance jubilee a spirit in flight uninhibited and free all worries aside complete joy revealed as the wind takes us home where warm sunbeams peer
Stars that descend from the night skies Amass, and prevail in Pepper's eyes Her eyes are a phenomenon They are like diamonds in the sun Songs that make smiles and cries Are songs about Pepper's eyes A rainy day turn beautiful A summer breeze that feels cool One glimpse, and there's paradise Of peace, love, and happiness in Pepper's eyes An everlasting eclipse in motion A brilliant sunset gleaming on the ocean ~ Leonard Napierskie
Narrator's View I 1 Day I was born, I have questions my own, My heart and my soul would willingly ask, But I'm all vessel with Innocence's crown, Nor these are normal, new born's hourly task 2 Likewise a tree all in island alone, I was dwelling where in all I know least, Doing nothing's all I can do but mourn, To the answers I seek, stilled in the mist, 3 And to come with the time where I can gaze, Upon those clearest of lights from the sky, I saw the world painted most joyful days, And details of sadness that made me sigh, 4 To wander, to seek, my eyes were then fixed, To a Place where all seemed painted the same, And then my heart whom drummed as if were tricked, Did spoke to me from the other side came: Song of Reality 5 To you I greet and welcome to this world, Land of Reality, seen is adored! Come herein we give treasures of doses, And golden beds with cushions of roses! 6 We walk upon the sands of truth and real, To where are path, the moon-left waters seal, And when the light of dark had fetched the East, The waves refine where no marks left to feast. 7 And to our west, the greatest River flow, To where we behold its rushing sorrows, No dates we ever face the current's root, Ahead are vultures dancing on their loot! 8 These dreams of men that rule many a month, Destiny and time's harmony shall grant, But these the sea and sky had owed to make, Meet at horizon—illusions are fake! 9 For all these are good if summit attained, But failure achieved, crude hope still remained, All trials and works will product to naught, Unless the sea and sky—together brought. 10 This is the world's nature, fruit of God's will, Older than the first stream of lights he seal, That this nature, to the man's realm must live, All men shall receive, to smile or to grieve. 11 No gods are we to change all everything, To make the crows cry, to make the snakes sing, Sorrow and sadness the world has to grow,1q2 But all feel comfort, the great River's flow… ... Stanzas 12-22 on Part 2
I thought that I could run away from You, Separate myself from You, Hide where You can't find me or read a single thought I think. But I failed, because You always slip into my memory, Every now and then. As much as I try, I cannot forget You. You are too persistent to be remembered, In people I meet, in places I go. It's hard to ignore that You are everywhere. I realized even for a minute, nothing would take me Away from You. For You will always be lingering, waiting, For me to come around and accept that You are mine, That You are inside of me, That I am a part of You and You, a part of me. That we are bound forever. Because You have left a great part of You in my heart, And that is Your voice That whispers ' I love You' and 'Come home', In the darkest rainy nights of my existence. Nourishing my weakening soul, A warm blanket for my cold and unfeeling heart, A comforting light that illuminates my gray world. And I need all of it. I can't pretend anymore that I could be on my own. I have known how it was to smile with You, When bright summer days shine upon my life And You were there telling me, 'I love You' and 'I'm happy to be with you.' And I miss You, being with You, Everything about You. Your generosity, kindness and warmth, Your light. The joy that You bring, the hope that You give, And most of all, I miss the love that You let me experience. It makes a big difference when I don't acknowledge How much You care for me, And how much You wanted me to believe that You really love me. And will always love me, In spite of me? Yes. If I only stop fighting how much I also feel for You. Because once upon a summer time, My soul was filled with so much joy and certainty To say these out loud: 'I also love You very much', 'We will always be together, forever...' I remember them now more clearly. I belong to You. And I am happiest when I am with You. So now there will never be any hesitations, I am coming back to You, dearest Father, Never again will I allow myself To doubt who You are to me, and I, to You. I commit myself to loving You, And honoring You, my Lord, Now and forever, and for all eternity.
In the valleys and the hills There is a beautiful country, Fairy nature here beams- Walking through Hungary. Mineral waters- this is Hungary, Wines of gods- this is Hungary, Curches domes- this is Hungary, Rivers flow-this is Hungary. Caves of million wonders, Sparkling with silver lights, Thousands of beautiful gardens And lovely summer nights. Grand Budapest meets Danube, The Royal Residence above, The stone eagle superb- From Budapest with love. Lions guarding broad bridge, Buildings like on Thames, The Roman ancient places They full of pure grace. Estergom inducing faith- Nebulous blended dome, The way to the west leads- To the lake of Balaton. This is Hungary- exquisite, This is Hungary- colors of joy, This is Hungary- still a mist, This is Hungary- just enjoy!
THIS POEM "LOVES.. WINE..." Brings out THE BEAST, in my womanly, female, cravings The PASSION that I Feel When I Read This Poem, MAKES me, want to take off all that is on the outside of me. And feel what can only be share between two hungry calculating souls in love. My lips grow swollen with ever word as if i am utterly skin close to you. And you are caressing, every carve of my inner and outer thoughts. no words have ever moved me to thoughts of so deep, with moist intentions to which have no endless meaning in its passions before! if only I, could sip for your cup just maybe I, too could know and feel, of this sweet "loves.. wine... you speak of...( http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/loves-wine/ ) aka:lyricvixen
Dear Friend Why you wondering where we stand? Me and you are tighter Then the ying yang we make with our hands I know we're far apart But a call brings us back together No matter the hour of the day And no matter the type of weather forever But I'm glad You came to me first Each time I read your letter It hurts me even worse Because I see us more than friends We're bothers in the Lord So if you are hurting Then I am hurting even more You can always count on me When your world is going wrong I will never turn my back on you Even if my back is against the wall And I know it's not easy to tell our moms When it's hard for us to stand What do they know about military life? Or the struggle for a military man? Don't be shy Because there's something we all do fear If I had the chance to switch services You know I'll be right there And I am not brave I wanna be the friend you can lean on you said I can calm you down well I also wanna keep you Army strong death isn't nothing but the devil getting to you keep believing in God he will give a path to make it through dude jus so you know I'm here I'm always around you've been trained good so take a step back and calm down and when you come home we're going to party like when we was kids and laugh at all the stupid things we ever did keep your head up because this is where it has to end yours truly P.S. you're my number one friend
Destiny I hoped that our love was made to last, But still destiny has her own way too fast, Still I wish to stop the time, And make this poem always in rhyme. I hope the time will come, That you will be back here in my arms, I really would hold you tight, And my world will be so right. Destiny has her way, No matter how we tried to get away, It will surely find it's own way. It will be better trying to get things together, Because sometimes we are destined to love someone we don't know, But I hope I was destined not to let you go.
Well, my mother, she lay sick in bed; And I can hear the words she said: Don't you cry little boy, Don't you cry little boy, The Lord is near Well, the doctor said he give her a weak; Because she is so very week. Don't you cry little boy, Don't you cry little boy, The Lord is here. Well, my father, he lay dying in bed; And I can hear the words he said: Don't you cry little girl, Don't you cry little girl, The Lord is near. The day has come and he's with me no more; With wings in Heaven he will soar. Don't you cry little girl, Don't you cry little girl, The Lord is here. Well, our baby brother lay in his crib; And these are the words we said: Don't you cry little baby, Don't you cry little baby, The Lord is near. He struggles for breath and cannot rest; His hearts beats hard on his chest. Don't you cry little baby, Don't you cry little baby, The Lord is here. Don't you cry little children, Don't you cry little children, I, the Lord, am near. Don't you cry little children, Don't you cry little children, I, the Lord, am here.

Unalterable sins, needing a blood covering. Modernistic attitudes and views, that diminish the cross' message being directed toward sparse filled pews. While amplifying ideas, misdeeds, lay hidden behind a mask. Surfacing stories of alienation, a pretender brought to task. Stripped now of facade, exposed to all, is Satan's drool. Masquerading in darkness, all see, an unrepentant fool. "And be sure, your sins will find you out" Numbers 32:23
When things seem
