Visited you today as the sun set in the horizon… the orange tinged carnations were a perfect complement for the skies and for you… orange and blue always remind me of you the winds softly blew and I just sat there staring at the grass, well more at your name really… hardly believing what I am looking at, that it's been seven years of missing you, of just putting that reality at the back of my mind… But there are days, such as today which make me confront that reality— I see your smile, remember your laughter celebrate your spirit and your love Tears, I tell you I have the most stubborn tears maybe because they make it so real for me? I look around me and look for that sign Nope, not there… I say a prayer and speak to you thankful for the life shared I kiss the date that you were born and walk away my reflection on the car window misty One last look around, and then I see it… a cat, as we drive away… Skies now streaked purple and pink **My brother would have been 40 today, May 6…
I am a coward with open sores. I write and wonder who it bores. I hear my heart and mind argue repeatedly. I see others carrying out my dreams; that's what's defeated me. I am a coward with open sores. I pretend open doors are closed, and walk the other way. I touch base with the fear in my heart, tearing me apart, leaving nothing to say... I worry the world will leave me. I cry because no one believes in me. I am a coward with open sores. I understand nothing comes easy. I say I'm happy, but even I don't believe me. I dream I am healed and brave. I try to overcome my weaknesses before I'm in my grave. I hope you hear me. I'm on all fours. I am a coward with open sores. © 2011 ~JSLaM ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * 1st PLACE in Contest "MARCH MADNESS" Sponsored by C.

When my final shadows cling on desperately Where I fight formidable battles to merely hold the light I send you loving vibrations and soul sustenance Deep from the cathedral of one heart to another where today no choirs sing nor symphonies play Yet it is here where we meet in spiritual solace here to surrender and exchange inestimable treasures recollecting memories like unopened letters Galaxies are stretched over chronicles of shared history Nebula birthing stars will be exposed in forth-coming conversations bringing short-lived fulfillment to you Hungry to feast now will be the time to approve your blood art vision and with my own haunting surrender as dappled shades ink stain your chest I will reside with you and share, mesmerised pens - by branding as this will be your written reams to me your artist's pallet or brushed canvas no need for words and yet creating mysterious magical moments Bitter-sweet the music that dances taut guitar strings but now blood approved please go kick your heel up return to your laughter and ride on the breeze for not all are lost change not for I am with you always to love, listen and comfort as one with you in me and I in you as masterpiece
This song is for my mother Let her hear me cry I couldn't bring myself to write it 'Til this darkened day arrived A song about old promises Made so long ago Created and cremated Ashes of the words I spoke Long separated by the miles Distanced from her golden smiles Memory of a mother Shared my dreams and really cared Long separated by the miles Distanced from her golden smiles Mama… I know I wasn't there…… For you Would have placed A magic carpet 'neath your weak and shaky legs Would have raised A strong west wind Let you breathe with ease again Would have bribed God's venal angels Come and soothe your endless pain Would have vanquished All the demons And bring peace to you again Be the child I never knew In a land We won't grow old Be the light I always loved Warmed my dark And lonely soul Be the girl Playing games In a world The sun won't set Be the laughter Calms my heart I never will forget I won't forget, won't forget This song is for my mother Let her hear me cry Couldn't bring myself to write it 'Til this darkened day arrived Song about old promises Made so long ago Created….cremated Ashes of the words I spoke I broke my promises, oh mama Now you've gone away I'm broken Drowning in the pain each day I'm drowning…drowning...drowning…drowning This song is for my mother Let her hear me…….
Sad Heart, now thou art wither'd from the Sun, What man, or god, will near thee run? Wrought in twist like branches in Tempests' gasp, What Comfort, or Gauze, shall be near to grasp? True ones begotten are the ones now Rotten And the ones now Rotten will never be forgotten They are merely sad remains of assiduous Tears That have been meddl'd with and tatter'd Raw throughout the years And thou, cruel Mind, that sat'st still thru toiling trail of Night; Must dream your broken Dreams; thou'rt a sanely flight! Can thou extinguish passions of Fire, Disease, or Rain? —tho thy distinguish'd influence trains to abstain Thy Remnants brought to debris in thy Empty street, Devour'd by Vultures, their bestow'd beaks entreat Merely are they cleaning an inexhaustible Mess Alas! Leaving thy rudiments of Identity to redress....
A stranger lifted me up today While I was lost in my own self-centered universe, Silently crying about nobody else reading, commenting or caring About anything I've said, Considering myself poetically dead. I've been more concerned with the encroaching materialistic Responsibilities, requirements and concerns of living Instead of turning my attentions outward towards others And lifting myself out of this whirl pool of self-pity Into the ocean of giving. When to my wondrous delight dark turned to light As out of seemingly nowhere a fellow poet spoke gently and composed: "Your poetry is like the softness of a country rose." And while I know not where she lives and breathes This furtherance of feeling was shared with me: "I too am blue as sky is gray and nothing more will do today Except ethereal connections are how we poets play." I was more than moved, to say the least How this gypsy out of cyber space Renewed my poetic vow: To speak the truth simple, plain and clear As I know how. And how My words and hers connected Through the vacuum of space and time Is a story for another day and rhyme. Until then, I stand transformed By those few words she engendered – And would give anything to tell her How sweet and kind her words were rendered.

Niday 3/20/1952 - 6/18/2013 I am who I am because of him He's the reason for my son's name He gave me my courage & my strength To stand tall even when standing wasn't easy Stand for the ones who can't To think and fend for myself I'm my Daddy made over Taught me to fight back To never back down How to pick myself back up When I've been knocked down Fight for what I believe I'm my Daddy made over He gave me my stubbornness Gave me my pride Gave me my temper Taught me not to take crap To speak my mind no matter who Work for what I want I'm my Daddy made over How to keep my emotions in check How to handle large amounts of pain When in trouble he always had my back He knew how my mind worked better than anyone I got it from him I'm my Daddy made over Even though he's gone I'll stand and continue on I may stumble I may fall May even get hurt along the way But I'll pick myself back up I'll dust myself off and stand tall I'm honored and proud to say I'm my Daddy made over Sabrina Niday Hansel ______________________________________________________________________ Placed 1st in "Unsung Hero" 7/2014 contest Also 3rd. in "Portrait of a Poet" 1/2014
A first free verse Poem and a lyric Song for Y. 2014: A Poem: I WILL BE FAITHFUL TO YOU (Free Verse Lyric) I was broken when you met me You gave me hope and courage, Your words were enough strength To bring back my heart a whole again. I learned to love you more and more Each day, dearest friend of mine, To know that you are leaving These teardrops fall from my eyes. I will be faithful to you till the end of time Whether you are far or near, Forever in my heart I'll keep you dear I'll be waiting for you even under the rain or storm I'll try to be strong although my heart is torn. Through you I found a new way While you lovingly hold my hands As I write my joys and my pains You never leave me behind When the sun shines in your day Or the stars are seen above you, Think of me that I'm always here Wishing and praying the best for you I will be waiting for you even under the rain or storm I will be faithful to you… God, please give us strength to go on.

He was always so happy strong and bold. He'd give you the shirt off of his back. Tough. Independent. He had a rough life growing up through the depression, but like he always does, he got through it. He has two boys, of whom he is so proud. Moved from Regina, to Victoria. He had the best life anyone his age could have wanted. But ever since his wife died, he has not been the same. Sad Lonely Empty. But like he has always done, he got through it. Mind slipping, just a little forgetful. That's how it always starts out... But like always, he powered through it, until now... He is not the same person that I used to know. He been sentenced to the prison in his own mind. Possessed by the thoughts of his dogs ashes. He likes to play the blame game, but we know he doesn't remember that it was him. He wakes up in the night shaking with pain, tears streaming down his face. There is nothing we can do, Oh well... Two more tylenol. Hold on to hope for as long as you can, It's only a matter of time now. He gets vocal, a very loud tone. He'll block you in your room and make false accusations But we know that it's the pain induced monster in him. Tick tock, tick tock... You can't handle the stress anymore you have to leave. Just hope for the best, maybe it will get better. Surprise, it doesn't. Your denial is foolish, everyone knows what happens next. Sedation Medication Anger Hurt All results of dementia
R.I.P. William Dale Eubanks d. July 1, 2012, aged 68 yrs., Tennessee Ridge, Tennessee Death came as no surprise the first Sunday in July; it claimed you, on a ridge in Tennessee, with kin who took you in and waited with you through the last hard days. You kept what fears you had well hid, did not betray with loud complaint the fate you could not but know awaited. A smile, a joke, a hug – exotic meals – And genuine interest greeted all you met. And you were, certainly, never boring but well-traveled and smart beyond the telling. We'll miss your wit, your bright demeanor, and will remember all you freely gave --- and what you took from us with your passing.
Who am I, oh, who am I? Just a poser child Borderline? A series of bold contradictions Led on by doctors false predictions Diagnosing all the time... Angry outbursts fill the air, Throwing objects everywhere, They drug me up, because they're lazy It's too much work to help the crazy I hate the pills, but they don't care Take the drugs, and you'll feel better, We'll smoke some bud, and chill together But even if I smoked the weed Surely that's not all I need The lovely high won't last forever I get attatached to everyone, But when they get too close, I run So many arrows in my heart Cupid shoots, but then I part Not phased by all the wrong I've done So put me on more medication, I'll throw in some dedication, But even then it's not enough This emptiness is still too tough All that's left is contemplation
I thought of you today, sweetheart, which is really nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, and the day before that too. I think of you when I'm alone, I often speak your name! I keep your lovely photo, in a golden picture frame. Your memory's in my make-up. it's like another body part! I promise you, my darling, I keep it locked inside my heart! I'm told by friends, as time goes by, that I will slowly heal. I have my doubts about it, because the pain is still so real! Part of me went with you, when the Good Lord called you home! It broke my heart to lose you, now, I must go on alone! You're with Him now, in Heaven, so all that I can do, is say a little prayer each day, till He calls me home, with you! Poetic form: Rhyme Ralph Taylor I love this poem because I wrote it to Una, my loving wife of 54 years, who recently passed away.
She is the muse to her own sorrow; She is the digger of her grave. She is the painter of her ocean view and every fatal wave. She is the shadow of her Father; She is the darkness in your sight. She is the night without the stars surrounding pale moonlight. She is the music with no words; She is sweet love without the reason. She is your dreamer with submission cold by warmth with every season. She is your pet with cold intentions; She is your baby scared and shaken. She is the bold and pure- the lost and found, She is a soul awakened.
I am whatever you say I am... but, let's get back to reality... Three short years ago, this room shined welcome mats across a screen of doldrums. A place of unfamiliarity that screamed, "You don't belong!" Yet, a voice of reason spoke and said, "Expand yir' roots. Venture beyond the comfort zone. Academia resides inside that room, but know you won't be alone." Repeatedly,brainwaves declined what my wife and editor had told me. I'd say, "no way, I'm givin' up my soul for free, they read, they pay, like it's always been, the way it's going to always be!" Unbeknownst to me one day, and with a slight of hand, my "Open Sores" were put on display and surprisingly more than a handful of great ladies and nice guys began to give feedback on what I had devised. This interaction was something very new, helpful, and impressive. For a change, it was something real. For years, those around me were quick to give praise with hidden reasons. Constructive criticism is amazing, and I welcomed being corrected or set straight. Now there are those who choose to shut me down without explanation, and call me names. DO NOT mistake me for sophomoric! These words bleeding from my guts have no style and need no approval. There is no thinking involved here, no plan. If you don't like it, fine...don't censor or bracket me in. So what if I am illiterate? If you don't like "street poetry" or the pathetic stuff I write, don't read it. If I offend you, tell me. We should welcome those who are different than us. Words of truth inspire movement, like fire. I came to this room to expand my horizons, step outside the box, learn, help, grow. There will be no apologies dealt for being different, or for being labelled as something uncomfortable to you. This has been an ok room so far, but there is some clique trickanery going on. If the dictionary must come into play, let me recommend looking up the term "Poetic License." True, I may not be the writer you prefer, or aspire to be....but tread carefully my friend, for you have no idea of my profession. I've made a fine living, for a good long time, spewing words onto paper. I came from nothing, and may still be nothing to you...still, I do what I love, have no boss. I am not an aspiring writer who dreams of a life, I live my dream. In conclusion, I must wish you luck in finding what you peddle poetry for. Until then, keep
When tragedy strikes, what happens to you? Do you roll yourself up in bubble wrap, box yourself in and pray that no one finds you? or do you b-R-e-A-K into a million pieces and let others pick you up? Reality feels like cork, I push, will it to go and stay T d O N o w d N l u o but it W ...I play zigzags with it in the water, and it still Refuses to S i n k I am Numb. And I try so hard to remind myself This isn't about me, not at all. The regrets are still there, the could'ves of life You try to make sense of the tragedy and still feel like floating up there with the truth Because even if the truth is dense and heavy, it can defy gravity, much like my tears 03092012140p144/146p158
I had a friend he loved to nap Usually on my bed, sometimes on my lap He was so smart I tell you that He didn't mind, even my neighbor cat His fur was brown, had very cute nose He loved taking pictures he loved to pose I loved him so much he had a good life And than he got sick he couldn't survive Some time ago on the very cold day It was last time for us to go out and play I didn't know how hard this will be To say goodbye to Mitten for my boys and me My heart was broken when I looked in his eyes But I knew God will take him to his paradise And than when he took his very last breath I couldn't stop crying because I knew he was death I miss him so much each and every day I wish he didn't die I wish he could stay He was my friend best friend of all I loved him a lot with my heart and soul His name was Mitten I know he runs free And plays with the angels And his waiting for me Mitten was our family dog for 17 years, the cancer took him away on, Feb 7 2012 We all miss him a lot..:(
Looking dead at me in this smeared mirror... a lost man tormented face red brittle and teared stacking excuses the longer I stare this stress abuses my conscience with a glare a guilty reflection warns my mind is the prison I fear as I long to escape from the hell I dwell in right here who have I become? what have I done right? crossroads appear suddenly as fog fills the mirror tonight darkness owning the room, prefers I suffer slow so I proceed with speed because it's the only way I know tasteless stories flood my life's hard bound chapters while this smeared mirror reflects tears dripping from a face which was once filled with laughter.
The evening star glowing in a dust choked sky. A girl stands by a window, with a tear in her eye. She stares at the scene, hardly visible through the grime. She whispers in the wind, "Bring my Dad home this time" She opens the window, and climbs outside, Having a flashlight, in her hand, as her guide. Its glow shows the sides of the street. She's afraid for what the light will meet Bodies piled everywhere she turns, She wants to go home, and never return. What brought this fate upon her town? All her emotions are stripped and torn down. A frightening sound explodes in her ear. Shadows in the road now appear. She run and hides behind a broken wall Praying to god the rest doesn't fall. Footsteps coming closer to her She can't tell who because it's all a blur She backs away further so not to be seen in light, Quieting her heart pounding from fright. Gun shots and screams fill the air, All these sounds, her ears couldn't bear. A slight whimper slips from her lips, And over the broken stone she trips. The shadows run closer, showering her heart with fear, She wishes they would just disappear. They pass by her; she fills with delight, She just wants to see her dad tonight. She shines the light, to show her place, And to the shine comes a familiar face. She doesn't understand who's to blame Because on the tag shows her father's name. She holds in her tears and refrains from crying. She falls to the ground where her dad was lying. She lifts his arm and buries her face in his chest. She closes her eyes wanting to forget the rest. The shadows emerge yet she doesn't see, How close the end for her would be. They look down at her, aim, shoot, and fire. Being with her dad is her only desire. The night had ended causing a little girl harm But she took her last breath, in her father's arms.
Futility my heart breathes its last breath Embraces its own death Ready to be reborn and made anew Can't live a lie Refuse to "do" and I'll DIE.... Focus now on why I'll live And never touch the sky. I have to forget you I have to reject you But I will never love anyone like I loved you..... I heard you whisper and you never knew it I wiped the tears from your eyes But you couldn't feel it You're lost and you'll never find you And neither will I And I'm so sorry-- but I'm NOT. I'll attempt to reset Try to forget But you know, I never will. Be my dirty little secret My very worst-kept secret Sweet, smooth, beautiful poison My infernal and endless attraction towards complete and utter self-destruction I fell in love with the devil And it will take one heck of an angel To save me from the likes of you.... My addiction my confusion my nightmare my dream never to come true Oh, I'll never forget the times we never shared I'll never forget how you were never there Always me, the stars, and tears And I ask you, what kind of life is THAT? I have to face the facts I don't know what happens now but it happens without you. The stains will always be there the scars will never fade But the memory of you---- it HAS to. I could carry the torch forever But it would only consume me I can't cry another tear for you Or I'll dry up completely It doesn't affect you and you never deserved me You'll go on with your life, too All, all alone Because you'll only ever be in love with you.
Smokeless inhales hurt. I cough tar on my shirt. As my black lungs breathe, Shrilling exhales wheeze. Cabrona Falls me Down to My knees. The nicotine cracks My will. My composure Spills. I want This. I must Have this. I sink Into The brink Of madness.
With the weather cold and dry My mind wanders far and wide Within the future things in store Negative thoughts, nevermore Of course the mind can think of horrible thoughts The pain that left the memory, not forgot Until one day, it returns to life To fear it with your heart, nevermore This stone inside is your sanctuary Not to be broken or to make one wary Demons from the past surround your love Let these Legion win, nevermore Alas, true lovers can fight them off Not lie, bicker, hate or scoff Predict the weather tomorrow pleasant Allow the rain to come, nevermore You cannot allow this darkness to thrive To swarm your soul like a hornets' hive Beware of those who intend to kill Let them take your heart, nevermore Titles are a trivial thing Would phones or your heart start to ring? When your darling returns home in your arms Let the outside in, nevermore For you and our love are all that matter My heart and soul come together in patter For my weakness is your voice Allow us to be apart, nevermore
Before you came along everything was going all wrong i didn't know what to do but that was before i knew i needed you i would walk down the streets all alone going every where but home before you came along i would turn my face to the sky wishing i could tell this world a quick goodbye before you came along i would fall down so far down i had to look up to see the ground but before i could shed another tear you were here holding me in your arms you had finally come along just in time to help me be strong i love u now u are ready to go i did something, what, i guess ill never know this has all played out like a bad song because now your going going going GONE :(
Have You Been Hurt By "Religion"? Are you tired of "religious people" knocking at your door? You wish they'd leave... "You can't take it anymore!" Have you been hurt by "church people" sometime in the past? Somehow they hurt you... And the pain continues to last… Have you been "wounded" by something somebody has said? Perhaps you wonder if "they wish you were dead…" Perhaps there's someone that you may have "befriended…" They have done something that has hurt you and "offended." There's probably many people that you wish would "go away." Because of something they've done to "darken your day." I've been there many times… Believe me I know. How someone's actions or words can hurt your soul. Even those who go to church are often not very kind. And they don't hesitate to give you "a piece of their mind." Religion is not the answer. Look to Jesus and the life he gives! He alone has the power to love and completely forgive! It's only in his shed blood that you can find atonement. He can change your life now! This very moment! He can heal your broken heart and wounded spirit. An everlasting joy and love... He freely gives it! He can do what no "church" or "religion" could ever do He can restore your life today. And make you BRAND NEW!!! By Jim Pemberton
A bridge stood tall beneath a sky Of colour shining bright Darkness and light both amplified And beautified the night The stars, they danced in rainbow gleam Kissing the velvet base The gentle heavenliness of the dream Renewed my ugly face It seemed that years had disappeared And time had fallen asleep As I stood upon the bridge I feared But now I keenly reap A college friend was by my side Smiling futuristically I felt as if my past had died Simply renewing reality We watched, living and nonliving As the stars expanded and glided I gaped, silently forgiving My ugliness that had subsided The lake below grew jealous Of our glowing, beauteous form But we ignored it, obliviously zealous As the cold chill of night kept us warm When daylight came upon us The balance was tattered and torn My glowing frame was suddenly conscious Of the lake below, forlorn I stared upon its glimmering waters While the sun burnt out my paradise The college friend was sliced and slaughtered By the reality I have come to realise The ugliness declines to subside But who says beauty can't be rough? The stars refuse to shine so bright But still they shimmer enough As for that random college girl I just don't know how long But I'll find her someday in this world And who's to say I'm wrong?
Contn'd from Pg 1 So she called out to the stranger and asked for a ride Snow had fallen heavily and already piled three feet high When she climbed into the four-wheel truck never giving it another thought Before he headed down the highway, he went into a crowded bar Intuition nudged her, 'get out now, turn back!' But pride urged her, 'stay' He returned with a brown bag; appearing harmless as he turned to her 'Say, you're trembling!' He said and flashed a breathless smile 'Here, have a slug, of this, it'll warm you up, pretty girl!' Hesitation loomed for a minute then she accepted the bag from his hand Young Rachel, was now treading a path beyond thin, cracking ice As tears stung her beautiful eyes, she'd never had a drink this strong How her vacant tummy rebelled against the searing burn Nausea arose from deep within, and she began to have regrets Registering strong protest, her regurgitation would later accuse her killer Her faith was sealed as there were no open doors left for escape And before she realized he had made a reckless wide left turn Down the snow covered dirt path through tall pines and fir No longer were there sightings of sparsely lit farm houses Interspersed along the desolate, picturesque landscape The four-wheeler tackled with ease, snow drifts of fresh fallen snow Where the following spring young Rachel's body would be discovered That night Rachel laid buried under a few feet of snow She was at rest now to awaken to eternity in sunny fields Beautiful as daisies growing in heaven, carefree and endlessly in bloom! ~*~ For: Rachel..R.I.P.
Inspired by the Connecticut tragedy and another minor shooting that happened in my home state ------------------------------------- Blood and Bullets That night we cried ourselves to sleep For each of the little children the blood did weep Serve upon this misery and damage No words will excuse the savage The vultures swoop, spread the sugar coated lies But still the frozen child dies Yet they still wish to remove what little safety we have But they fail to see that will not stop the slings and arrows they have For the media projects the fame they crave Like wild dingos they consume what we fail to save Serve and protect is not the duty of just some but all as a whole ALL AS A WHOLE And we fail And we fail The cameras prance around like costumed horses in a dance All the while the mud splattered reality burns and singes the lines of damned fantasies We are to blame, shining glitter and fame on the damned souls that should be burned We spit acidic words of hate all the while praising them in glittering spectral lights of fame They do not heed the angry words, but revel in the talk of them...them.. Them... It's All About THE KILLER Blood and bullets pollute the spoiled ground but no one cares for the rotten Sadness rings through for a week but soon the victims are forgotten But no one forgets the criminal...Infamous He is immortalized by the fame...fame...infamous Blood and bullets Blood and bullets Blood and bullets Blood and bullets Blood stains Bullets jump dead forgotten left rotten Monster remembered remembered Blood and bullets Blood and bullets
Drop the ocean, lift the sky, Today seems like a goodbye, Memories of your voice forever linger. Drink the potion, get me high, Tears start to multiply , You wouldn't even try to lift a finger. Cast the demons, out of here, Lift me up, I have no fear, Show you what it means to say I love you. Wake me up, grab a beer, Fill my cup, and shed a tear , My love for you has always been this true. Drain the ocean , engulf the land, Time to focus , begin again, Learn to live without you by my side. Convey the notions, my own brand, Revolve my life, and take a stand, Without you , I know, I will be alright. Ring the bell, Sound the horn, Today i have been reborn, I can do this all on my own. Rise the fell, Mend the torn, Persevere through all the scorn, My , look at how much you have grown. Drop the ocean , lift the sky, Today seems like a goodbye, Memories of your voice forever linger.
A dedication to my grandpa, i love you and miss you, Your legacy lives on within my heart The sun can shine So bright, it makes you blind Fooling, deceiving. Very misleading . The world telling you it's a good day With just a simple ray. Penetrating your mind Telling you to leave all that behind. So you leave it … Searching for anything to find. To fill that hole in your heart ...with something kind. So you go for a stroll in a park And see a dog with a playful bark. As you step near You start to grow in fear Foam in its mouth You notice your head dropping south Chin down And start to frown. You realize it's not so sunny anymore Rain pours No more birds soar. Drop to your knees And freeze Start to cry. Then wonder why. Why do I feel this way? Looking for answers, you go to the bay. Watching the storm come in, you hear someone say, "Remember what I taught you, You have to be strong. Find the right In the wrong. Everything will be okay. Some days will rain. Some days will shine," Looking around to see who it may be You continue to listen to the voice from the sea, "some days you need to stop everything And pray. The Good Lord will take it away. I've always been your strength Strong for you and yours sister both." As you realize who it is You start to cry, from sadness… And bliss. "I know you miss me… And I miss you too. No need to cry, Oh Catelyn, oh me oh my. But just always know I'm here, In heaven watching over you. If you ever need me. You know where I'll be. Watching over you from the clouds. No need to worry. Don't stress so much. Life happens. It peaks And it stinks.. Given , I wish I was down there to talk to you. But it's all in God's plan. Everything will be for the better. Now I'm sorry I have to go, Check on your sister and cousins you know Whenever your feeling rough Whenever life gets tough Remember what I taught you. Rain may continue Life will happen in different Venues But go dance in the rain Let go of the pain. Enjoy the life God granted you …it won't last forever. Don't plan out the future God has his plan Live his will out Not yours Remember your still a kid, So smile and I love you Catie did" Tears rushing down your face Tears of joy or sorrow You don't really know. Remembering what your grandfather taught you, With his strength You stand up Something in your chest starts to bump Your heart, it's whole Alive Beating once again. Pain is gone And you live on. Dancing in the rain With only life to gain.
I'm sorry for the ways I fight, I'm sorry that I dim your light. I'm sorry I'm so negative, That I am so competative. I'm sorry that I'm so outrageous, I'm sorry my hurt's so contagious. I don't want to see your heart eache, Cuz when I do my heart it breaks. I'm sorry that I'm not so strong, But you inspire my hearts song. I'm not alone cuz now I see, Your light that's shining just for me. I'm sorry that I'm up and down, But, Dear, You win the patience crown. My love for you's so strong, please see, A fire burns for you in in me. I know that It's hard to believe, But God will help us, just you see.
I once heard a saying, that the happiest people are the saddest Shining because they've seen the darkest Like the lotus that grows out of mud Or the rotting stump that bears a bud.. You never know what troubles the mind So be careful with words unkind The glowing person just beside you Could be a crumbling ruin behind the hairdo Most people struggle everyday Souls burdened with decay.. I guess it takes a lot of courage To act normal with that damage Hard to believe that under the surface Lives a soul with no purpose A cry for help won't be any crisper Listen to the their inner whisper..

Can I let you go? Will you be okay? Where you're headed now...to a better place Listen to my words of forgiveness relieving this pain I'd give anything to have you back again To hold you once more in my arms, one more day of happiness you now dwell within my heart Your innocent smile is forever a distant memory, and the times that we share are precious treasures that I spend reliving The Shadow of Death Took you in just one breath Why must it be? I cry behind this closed door, searching desperately for an answer, yet all I feel is an emptiness inside... despair haunts me forevermore Why did you have to go? Why did you have to leave? Why does this have to hurt? Cancer robbed thy life from thee... Why must it be? Fly away Angel Child of Mine Trod thy broken paths, roam away, fly and be free... Why must it be?
I am free to: Love, Hope, Endure, Sing, Dance, Cry, Laugh, Grow, Give up, Never stop untill I achivemy goal's, Live life, Hate! Have the will not to hate, Never give up, Go down the wrong path, To choose the right one, To worship you, Lord!

Bury me in your lies of content So much of my time spent Wishing I could understand you Wishing you'd understand what you put me through shed the tear of false hope Lose the ability to cope With the silence, and the answers lost behind a locked door Lost in a place unknown...I fall to the floor You are my best friend... But I question what I am to you, and if anything ever really mattered in the end Did you know I tell you everything... And I thought you did too, but now I realize...I am told nothing Grant me the lie of your fantasy Slave away to hide in the mystery How many others do you hide from, Or am I the only one?

My Agoraphobia. In 1983 you came back into my life. Bringing me nothing, but trouble and strife. You kept me a prisoner in my own home. When all I longed for, Was to go out alone. You caused me pain, you made cry, I felt so ill, I thought I would die. From doctor, to doctor, from pillar to post. Where o where, is the cure I wanted the most? Where exactly does the answer lie? Eventually I found it, in a doctor called Di. She gave me the will to carry on and fight. I fought so hard, with all of my might. The shops in the village seemed so very far away. If only I could go out, just for one single day. I tried and tried, the tears, the pain, It was a battle lose or gain, I gave it everything, yes everything I had. It wasn't easy, in fact, it was very bad. In 1990, after 7 long years, A lot of heartache, many, many tears, I was starting to win the battle of getting out the door, With each day, I was doing more and more, But there was still so many things that I couldn't do alone. Still so many jobs, that had to be done on the phone. I could now walk to the shops, there and back, get the groceries, take them home, and unpack, But I still couldn't get a bus into town on my own, only if I had someone to go with, borrowed, on loan. It took several more years, of heartbreak and pain, Before I could finally travel alone again. May 2nd 2000, I jumped on a bus and popped into town, It was just like my world had been turned upside down. HERE WAS I FREE AT LAST, Finally free to forget the past. So I decided to do something I had never done before. I started at college part time, each day I couldn't wait to get out of the door, To catch my bus, to feel like I had finally rejoined the human race. Living life at a hectic pace. Going to college at the age of 53, Really did do wanders for me. The computer course was harder than I thought it would be, but others in the class helped me. Our tutor was really nice, Always ready with good advice. Now I really feel I have turned my life completely around, With this new freedom I have found. With a lot of help, from my husband and son, The battle is over, finally won. So its goodbye agoraphobia you belong in the past, Never again will you get me in your grasp. This is a true poem of my own battle with Agoraphobia, That robbed me of a lot of my life,
He loved you too, you know Loved you like his very own In away you were You came into his life as my friend Through the years you grew to be my brother in arms Along the way you became the son he never had He loved you as a friend He loved you even more as a son A son he never had When things began to spiral out of control You stayed when so many others ran away You helped when I couldn't You meant a great deal to him You never looked at him differently Nor did you treat him differently You stood by his side When he fell, you stood by his side and mine You were willing to help me fight his battle for him You were there from the beginning You were there until the bitter end Always remember my friend, my brother He loved you more than you'll ever know ____________________________________________________________ Dedicated to close Family friend Rodney Howard. He loved my Daddy just as much as I did/do.

As the time passes by season to season. I wait and wonder if this flower will ever grow. Planted so many times what seemed to be the right place , but once again it was not right at all. Struggling to blossom so it can show its color and beauty to the one that matters most of all. Thirsting for the warmth of the sun , starving for the attention , not really asking for much at all. So many times it felt so right , but things would change so quickly in the middle of the night and all would be lost. Slowly it would wither till there was no hope of blossoming one day. As the time passes by tears fill my eyes and there is nothing left to say. I only know that this flower will grow , but not this way. It must be cared for and understood , loved and nourished so it will blossom and grow stronger , more beautiful then any flower you've ever known. Will this flower ever grow? This is something I do not know. Sad as it may seem, it's even sadder to me , That I am that flower that will never grow , didn't you know ? TC

You have my soul, but you have your fate Whatever your words, I'm willing to take You have my word; I'll give you my breath It's like a chain that would never be break You are my love with all my heart, I'll fight for you with all my might. And in the way, you admire your goals, You hold my hands, but not so close. As you go to your chosen path, I'll accept the fact that we will be apart. In the dark side, I leave behind Within my faith, that you'll arise Please don't look back, coz I'm fighting still I'm hurting so much! Don't want to have you near I accept my fate for what it does, I'm bleeding so much, do you know for whom it was? You reach your goals, as you want to have, Would you remind the man that gave what he had? As you reach the stars, and be the one Be a sun that shines its own. After the rain, the rainbow comes, Like dark in the moon, when the light flash A glimpse from you at least a short For then I knew my pain is worth.
The song starts to play and I start to cry How can so much hurt come from a song like that? Once upon a time it used to bring me happiness and laughs Now all it brings me is sorrow You were my world and the song was ours Now you're gone leaving me with nothing but a broken heart It isn't easy to forget about everything That song meant so much to me and now it's all been taken away I had a dream that the song was going to bring us together again But now, I don't want to listen to the song anymore The song is a constant reminder of our tragedy and it will always hurt I've tried to forget but nothing seems to work I'll listen to that song a million times more Until the day we are reunited, together forever
You think that you know me But you don't know at all Every day you say your sorry After that I fall I hate it when you lie You think your doing good When all you cause is pain Just tell me that you hate me So my life won't be in vein...
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
When you miss a child, Of your very own, That is your flesh and blood, You begin to wonder, Where did you go wrong, In your own life, Instead of looking, At the beautiful life, You created, This you must remember, So many of the difficult times, Cause of the times you did share together, For your children will remember more, Than you really want to give them credit for, And they will always remember you, As their loving parent, For loving them so much, More than you will ever know, And you will never forget them, Just as you hope, You will never be forgotten, From their lives, Forever more, As well.
What Is This Church All About? Is this church meant for people like me? Is this where God really wants me to be? They claim to be filled with God's spirit. When it comes to HIS truth... Can they give it? I'm sure there's many who come and attend It's more than "church on Sunday," that we must spend! We must reach out to the lost and the oppressed! After all, Christ gave us his very best! May we all preach the gospel and God's holiness! And strive to seek his awesome righteousness! Living for Jesus must be a daily walk and experience! Not simply based on our "ambitious self appearance." God isn't interested in a denomination or a title… He wants to know… Do we really believe the Bible? He's not interested in the money put in the offering plate. He wants to know; "Are you ready to enter heaven's gate?" May we strive to serve Jesus with a zeal and passion! And be filled with his holiness and compassion! May we serve Jesus from a heart of humbled confession! And making our commitment to him, our #1 possession! "Unless the Lord builds the house." They labor in vain that build it! Let's seek the power of God! May his presence completely fill it!! By Jim Pemberton
All in one faded-black day (but let None forget) In my arms, her body lay (my life was the price to pay) A tragedy, through the lack of humanly shame (do they know pain) My darkly colleen has to suffer no more (Robert nor do you) Let me die (please hear my haunted cries) If I can not see Sophie tonight (live on with my grey) I'm just a mess of despairing words And broken nerves Another mourning, afflicted sight (through decay, love can remain) Solace, sympathy are just more lies She is all I need Until you decide she is just another sadist's toy My Angel, why did you have to fly so far away My Angel, just let one feather stay My Angel has flown away My Angel, why did you have to fly so far away My Angel, just let one feather stay My Angel has flown away (My body is amortal, die I may, Together, our hearts will forever stay)

Let us not forget her name , please do not let her die with shame . Why do you come seeking your toll , the Grimm Reaper of souls? ~ For this once young girl with the face one can only imagine her beauty ~ so many stares as she enter a theater or restaurant ,is she a model ? ~ she must be with a body like this , a body and face, eyes wide , smile divine ~ We love to hate , yet really she is quite beautiful. "If I could, I'd be this beautiful" The long flowing hair , her natural looks , she must already be discovered ~ ~ The years go by , and time allows way for the offspring of her breast the many that once shed gossip among the jealous is inherited through her child~ The Pink ribbon , new hair designs chosen , all the make up , preparing to say Goodbye~ With Grace .

I remember when I was told. Family in silence. It's not fair. The heartbeat of appliances still whining, I focus on times I thought we'd grow old... Clouds part with unexplained violence And our faces begin to pour. A hundred questions, a doubt And what else? Footprint in a concrete driveway, A spark-maker unlit watching seagulls soar From the soft earth, noise drowned out. A boy sleeps waiting to wake To manhood. Creased cheeks quiver, And what he gets instead are flowers. Relics in person, I question the ache That asks why we give rivers And must move on, while they remain. Held by the smooth arms of trees, Swallowed by a blanket of grass. I ask the plaque what I cannot my brain, Logic replaced by glassy guarantees I see right through. He will not rise. Facing away from a marching sun, A no longer marching son lies.
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
P aranoia permeates, etching itself into your fractured face, A cacophony of constant pressure; life remains a stressful race, N othing to hope for, no positives like promotion in the workplace, I nability to love, relationships lift anchor and set sail without chase, C hildren crushing dreams under mortgages; age grows with disgrace !!
This is my life, don't you see Pure jealousy has taken over me My wings clipped and my neck broken The demon inside of me has awoken You left me heart and soul for the last time Your words spoken as I caused the true crime My body dies down and the cold breaks me down Once upon my head, now on the ground a shattered crown My lungs seize to take in more air But i tell myself... he doesn't care... I take my last breath and close my eyes My heart says goodbye to the mournful cries They all stand around and look down at me there Some say I deserved it, some say is was unfair An untimely death was one I was destined to behold But this death was certainly... the most utterly cold Hand placed upon my chest and my body dressed all in black The memories of my in their hearts begin to lack Lowered below the ground my body is taken Never again for the butterfly to awaken
Based on a true story from a television documentary on Human Trafficking...an international crime with participants from a broad spectrum of society...occuring on a daily basis. I have only seen documentaries on the trafficking of young girls between the ages of 5 and above!! Law enforcers, it seems are fighting a losing battle against the men and women who sell and enslave young girls and I have no doubt, young boys as well. Somewhere this day on planet earth A Mother-to-be, while in labor, cries Not so much for the mounting pain Nor the fear of possible death So many fears for the future… "What lies ahead in the coming years? What "fate" will meet my child?" And added to all her heightened fears is… Will she be there to protect her child? Those dark years have now passed into decades When Tanya walked the shadowy streets of the city at late night While kids her age slept peacefully in their beds They made her dress up so she'd looked twenty one Days were spent locked in a room, under watchful eyes She was fed cheap fast food to her young heart's content Soon she'd lose all hope of liberation This was the second man she had been sold to And after a while she'd adapt to the situation Still fresh in her mind was that last day at school In her backpack was her favorite teddy bear Her Mother had chosen to believe her step-father again Now that her twelfth birthday would be in a month As no one cared, she decided to run away While at the bus station she met this "nice" couple Who listened to every word she spoke They promised her a ride to any place she wished And she'd always wanted to see Disney land "Maybe, she thought, it'd be a birthday treat" However, that would be another promise broken Weeks dragged on and they bought her "stuff" Although treated well, sometimes she still felt alone Then one day came the grown up clothes and make up That night her innocence was stolen once more Later she'd try to make an escape Only to be caught and tied to the bed post 'Make it easy on yourself and accept your "fate", she was told That was years ago, although it seems like yesterday, When arrested by a new officer on the vice squad Who saw the flaw in the picture before him The pimp gave no reasonable answer to the simple question 'Why are you parked late at night on the street corner with a minor?' Looking back over the years, she came to conclude that "Fate" is just another word, made up to cast aside blame; when we do not want to see the path we've chosen which has led us to our present state When Pilate symbolically washed his hands, though he had power in that moment to act.. When there before him stood truth and innocence, Yet, he chose to make a comfortable bed for his conscience Today, Tanya is a college graduate and a Mother who has vowed not to leave anything to "fate". She'd teach her children to take responsibility for the choices they make… She would teach them that no one is of lesser value than another.. Male or female; black or white, all hues; rich or poor All have a God given right to live free! ~*~ 8/03/13 For: Richard's "Girl Rising" Contest (3rd Place Win)
You've been thrown left and right, Crying to yourself every night, Thinking all has gone wrong, & you won't be giving up after long.. You've been heartbroken One Two many times: From old boyfriends, To lies; Father walked out, Baby killed by mistake; Your mom has disowned you, But she still shows you lust… Everybody knows the truth, The pain that you do not choose; They see what you show, But see me… I, T'Keyah Wilder, I already know… You've raped and thrown from left to right; Crying to yourself every night; Everybody saying they understand, But you know you're the only One who knows your pain ; On this land… It's a matter of time, Before you kill yourself, Stressing yourself, Hurting you and everyone else; Blaming yourself for, Mistakes not purposely made; Crying every time you feel like you just got Laid, You want the true love, Love shown from the heart; Honestly, Coming from your big sister; I think you need a fresh start, Easing your pain with nicotine; I'm surprised you're not Sippin lean… I know it may be hard, To forget about the past, But there's one thing; I must ask from you and I Want this to last; Promise me, you'll try your best To stress less, & pray more… Listen to God; Put him above… All; We're not close like we used to be, But you know I'm just a phone call, Away… Not far from you.. But I wish you'd realize, This too… Stressing is not working, Cause death, the devil, lies, & fear are lurking.. Promise me; You'll try to be the best you can be… Dear Little Sister from another Mister! <3 RiP auntie bby ; djF .
Final Adieu Let another sun set, Let another flower wilt, Let another autumn cast its gloom, Let another tear role, As ye part, and bid The final adieu. Suyash Saxena St. Stephen's college
An old man looking out his door, gaze fixed on a distant shore, reminiscing to a time, not of happiness, or, the prospect of a bright future, to when he was sick to his very core, to when as a youth, he went to war A time before infallibility had meaning, patriotism and bravado the craze, the future was still unknown, vigor for life at its all time high, a time for romance, partying, buying, no thought of pain, deformity, dying Too young to understand or question, ship to foreign shore, medals abound, will impress the girls next time in town, sacrifice not temporary, forever more, a legacy etched into a wall, few will remember, flesh shredded, burned, torn, families mourn A time, when he willingly went to war, will happen no more, all lost in youth, now unrelenting, no blind obedience, minimal risk, long life, his number one ambition As he turns back from the door, he thinks of the youth, here now, soon no more, lessons never learned, the call to war, to common the roar, complacency the mood, another generation removed The old man agonizes over what was originally not known, war is preventable, life too precious to waste, the solution simple, his vision, maybe too late Send old men to the front to fight, arthritis, heart disease, poor eyesight, let the youth enjoy their life, his near over, its only right Send old men, to the front, to fight ask them to give up their life, patriotism and bravado, still alive, will and desire would not last the night, old men do not rush to death in their twilight, failure inevitable, the old man smiles, knows he's right Wars not possible, if old men, are sent to fight
In high school everything changes Teachers, friends, you, "That's just life" they say, And they never stop to ask "Well, how do you feel?" And your friends leave, and your grades decrease, And your teachers begin to worry, And they make you see a shrink, But they never stop to ask, "Well, how do you feel?" The sky starts to crumble, And the tears begin to fall, And music and hoodies become your best friends, And they never stop to ask, "Well, how do you feel?" And the tools come out. And the objects fall apart, And you reach for the closest one, And the ask, finally, "Well, how do you feel?" But by now it's too late. Your time is up, your blood's run out, Your scars show for the world to see, Cause they asked too late, "Well, how do you feel?" "She was so young" they all say, But really you were old. You'd seen so much and hurt so much, It was time for you to go. So you picked up the pills and washed them down And grabbed the blades and cut And when they finally noticed you weren't around It was too late you were gone. They found your letter on the bed And read it out at school "You asked to late, but I don't blame you." And your friends were moved to tears. In your tree house in the yard They found you pale as snow Your eyes closed, a smile on your face And they realized you were gone. They roll up your sleeves and roll up your pants And scream at what they see Lines, and lines, and lines of cuts Some healed and some not. And they realized they should have asked in the beginning How you felt that is, cause, Honestly you didn't, You didn't feel anything at all.
"Don't it always seem to go that you don't know what you got till it's gone..." from the song Big Yellow Taxi by Joni Mitchell Age four on the ice with double-bladed skates Big sis skated slowly looking down at me How well I remember the way she would wait Always watching over me filled with such glee When I was nine she married into money Country club lifestyle, hand-sewn silver fox coat Her branch took a split from our family tree As the years passed, she grew more and more remote How I miss those days when she would lend a hand To a smiling child who was her devotee Poor and not as pretty, I live in nowhere land And my sis continues looking down at me Dedicated to my sister, whose companionship and love I miss. For Chris Matt's "Favorite Music Lyrics" contest
They are bound to the Earth like trees Suffocating under the weight of an icy grave Reaching to be free, but only their limbs are seen Hoping that one day someone will see: They can't escape with lacerated wings The ocean surrounds me, covering everything Nothing will be clearly seen; confusion overwhelming No-one can save you, you're on your own, left to die Manipulating every bleeding heart you can find I can't escape with lacerated wings. Swarms of nets, waves of screams Entangle: your captive illusions and dreams The mask has be seared - The truth now they see The Liar - Vampiric Fiend; lowly thief And now they know you can't escape with Lacerated Wings There's reasons for your rejections: Your Heavy heart's transferred oppression The scars are too deep to pass the trials But you can find peace in your cage of empty spirals You Cannot Escape With Lacerated Wings
(Dedicated to Folake) Your eyes, woman are like twilight rainbow amorously bearing aloft passions of mine toward androcytic ecstacy. They tell of endless lights. Night skies clarion the warmth of you keep me balled-up till i am tilted to your adorned essence. May I call up words to adore you, agglomerate them into a panoply of worshippers unsandalled before you like Moses at the burning bush. And now you seem to fall asleep but you tell me it's the heavy night bidding toward a sunny dawn wherein our love is lighted. Slowly I let you fall asleep impatient with the long night waiting to gaze once more into the eyes of my lovely love. Then a lip is placed on yours and you rouse up wide-eyed smiling at my romantic move. We enjoyed the night, cruising on.
Chicken Head Your a bird, with no wings! Your soul is lost and lives in the streets. Why sell your body the way you do? you least can get your son some new shoes. If you going to sell your body,get what you can get. You have kids, you need to get a grip. Do you really want your daughter to grow up like you? To flag down cars for every man that comes threw! Why are you selling your last food stamps? To pay a cell phone bill that has laped. This is no debate, your son lips is cracked from being dehydarted. Why do you make them suffer for the things you do? Look into their eyes. thats the hatred for you! Your baby is crying tears, for you can hear. Crying to be loved by you, You can really fix the things you do! Each child is a gift from God, A bright shining star. Look inside your heart, and ask your self is this is what you want to be. A chicken head that stay in the streets. Ask God for help, when you lay down to sleep. Pray the lord your soul to keep. If you should die before you wake, ask him to help take your kids pain away! Some one should decapitate you, for all the pain you put your kids threw. So stop having kids just for someone eles to raise them. I guess it's for the best, because you really don't deserve them! They cry for help, they beg of you! Your a lost soul, and only God can judge you!
A sweet flower's funeral displayed in the cold months of snowy weather and bone chilling shivers. A sweet flower burned away, dried up; buried six feet under. Oh, my sweet flower, how you once bloomed with no remorse, like a madman blooming with beauty and a glorious halo over your head shinned with such power and blinding glory. Oh my sweet flower how you have gone now, resting in peace in the land of paradise. Oh, my heart it is weak when I see your face, of once beautiful smiles and warm embraces. I can hear your crying out to be free. Snowing and bone chilling cold ripes at my soul and feelings of sorrow rage through my blood, boiling my hatred to the world, for losing your sweet and ever glorious beauty. What I would give away, if I could be with you one last night, one last night together to hold you in my arms, to smell your sweet perfume that brings back sweet memories of you and I. What I would do to be with you, such romance travels through my heart in the highways of my veins in my body, love is all throughout me, and my heart breaks when pictures of you start to collect dust. My love for you, my sweet flower, is still ingering through the air, as I travel and look upon a tombstone which shows your beautiful name. Come to me my dear flower, when spring comes, come to me my dear, sweet flower. And bloom once again, twice as large as last year, and ten times more beautiful then last year. Come to me in the first months of spring in my dreams, so I could sit and talk with you. I miss you already, and my heart crys, my eyes flood with tears of sorrow. I miss our love we shared. Long walks, cosy talks, warm cuddling embraces and beautiful displayed in a picture frame. Now I hear the tapping of raindrops on my window pane. That is all that keeps me company, that and the rose you gave to me and a picture of you and me. Love is endless, even when blue eyed Death comes to visit and play a game of chess with us, we all play our game, my love. I shall go tonight in my sleepy slumber and dream of you in the times of our height in our love for each other. My lost love, you are gone, resting in paradise, but never forgotten my sweet flower. -10/6/2013-
Green bark a prism creates, Feel the pull of earth, you must. Rotates, a slime of endless hates, Can hold me not, this world's crust. Friendship's ties, isolation Deflates, Succumbs, my spaceship, to bitter rust. Mist, my soul forever permeates, Lift-off, booms the rocket's thrust. My spirit when light returns, elates, Swamps swell, swallowed hope's swirling dust. Trapped, I am, until student from fate Arrives to learn; Cloud City or bust.
Living A Lifestyle That the Bible Forbids… I know of someone living a lifestyle that the Bible forbids. He told me; "how dare anyone tell me how I should live!" He added; "what I do is no one else's business but my own." "No one can ever tell me what I do in my home!" When given scripture that clearly forbids what he's doing… It's the backward kind of life… That he's choosing! He claims Jesus is his lord, in spite of his moral depravity. It's like he has, in his body, an "infected cavity." God gave to us his word, with his holy instructions! If we don't obey, it'll lead to our spiritual destruction! It doesn't matter if 10,000 churches say that it's o.k. to do! God requires a righteous and holy way of living, for me and YOU! There are choices we all have, that are to be made! Are you going to be victorious in Christ? Or sin's slave??? Have you thought about living for Jesus? And what it cost? If we're not sacrificing our lives for him, we're forever lost! If you're one who's caught up into a life filled with perversion… May I introduce you to the blood of Jesus? And a righteous conversion? God gave to each of us, HIS rules and commandments to live by! It's either God's rules, or man's, that you'll either live or die by! Won't you choose a life that God has chosen to give you? He created mankind! It's no secret how much he loves you! The opportunity is here! It may never come again! Won't you let the power of Jesus break the bondage of sin? Jesus can set you free! Won't you let him help you? He's patiently waiting… Just because he wants to! By Jim Pemberton 10/07/13
Before you read this poem, I would like to invite you in reading about the great American sniper hero. I am also dedicating this to the fallen sniper because he is a true Patriotic Hero. Thank you. Chris Kyle was and still is loved by many, this to be true I say I always believe him to be, a great sniper to this undying day. Why must things happen to people, that are always so kind Life would be better keeping some, alive alongside mankind. Why don't I tell you a story, about this very kind honest fellow He was and is an U.S. Navy Seal, but along that chill and mellow. The most lethal sniper known of, in American military history With a very high percentage confirmed kills, quite the victory. At the young age of eight, his father taught him how to shoot A great father teaching a son, instead of giving him the boot. A bronco rider for the rodeo, sadly gave it up for a serious injury It was to his arm although he still lived, with very great dignity. Being a great sniper had an effect, putting souls to their bed Eventually somewhat famous, an increasing bounty upon his head. Undoubtedly dubbed the "Devil of Ramadi", by non-other than Iraqi An increasing bounty shot twice, but his body and will still intact. After a while serving his country, he retired heading home graciously Taking back some long spent time, spending it with his family. Chris Kyle a loved husband, a friend to many and a beloved son His homeland now saddened, for America has lost a patriotic one. A great warrior indeed, in my opinion our greatest honorable hero He put his life on the line, instead of becoming the common zero. The greatest treasure of all, came from within himself to prove That all humans aren't wrongful, but that we all can improve.
Christmas Rebels It was about a weak After that night walk The unknown dangers, Made known, turned me weak, I was managing myself, After my heart was pulled, From where it sank, I was yet in the oven, Of my haven, To dry up the coldness, And the wetness, Of that fearful night loneliness, Today is Christmas, The whole mass, Was joyous, Every home, glorious, Meat was plenteous, Rice and beans. Was every homes means, Children bouncing in, New goat skin jackets, Mother's dressed in costly Beads and all the way, Father leads. For Christmas had taking over, Taking over the African Shrine, It supplied a joyous sunshine. Our pockets were full of cowries, Like a goldmine, Happiness was mine, For the usual war seemed To be hidden, and our teethes where like, "Forever opened". Oh! Joyful, blissful, plentiful Christmas. Providing joy each time it surface, But joy has a slender waist that breaks so soon. Christmas night came, so we visited Our beds as night rang it's bell, (To be continued in the next, same Poem).
Living my life on the Dole*, Because my Mum told me so, Interview at 'McDonalds', but that Tyrant told me "No!", See, we're a family with pride, Don't sell fries at super-size, But where's the pride, If I can't provide, For my own style of life, Spent my money from the *Brew, On Irn-Bru**, I swear that's true, Dreary, damp & cold, This black hole, I call home, Only 'joy' I get in life's the 'stick' I use for X-BOX, And I aint got a tumble dryer so I step with wet socks, Work-shy, but money-hungry, Flats cramp-sized & pretty ugly, Arrogant guy, Until I woke up and realised that no-one loves me. Brain melts to slush, in this non-testing occasion, 'Gain Work' is a must, for a teenage Caucasian, Nothing separating me, From drug-addled Dads of three, No payday, Just giro day, No jobs… great, Keep trying mate, No end in sight as unemployment rises, Government gives you cash like they were handing out prizes, Where's my reason to go out & work? My motivation, Its pleasing no-one now, this escalated situation, Experience is something that you earn, not that you're born with, Inexperienced forever, if I don't get employed quick, I don't enjoy sitting on my broken couch for hours, I'm your Friend with Benefits, can only wash with cold showers. (*Common British phrases for Jobcentre or Jobseekers Allowance Benefit) (**Famous Scottish soft drink mass produced around Britain)
Valley of flowers And rainbows isn't my abode Share if you may The thorns of my anguish And be the balm of my wounds
Can't think about the Year that didn't last Can't fight the time and how it passed so fast… Voices were cheerful that night Everyone was full of silver light I heard the sounds but didn't care I couldn't help but only think and stare… I dreamed of love that possibly I'll never share And of life that was just like a fairytale. In that second of complete despair I saw the moon and realized it was all a dare Then your voice whispered in my ear Promising me all I needed to hear…
Define your lovely, soulless heart in death To take my heart would be a risk; a storm You licked your lips to taste what i had left And jumped from cliff to rocks, i was forlorn. Upon my lover; roses wilt in pain For I've lost the one whom has no soul, and Was all this give and take with us in vain? I loved your soul and heart, we joined by hand. The brewing storm that took a life, took two For deep within your heart was love, And deep within my heart was you I'll see you soon, i promise; heart above. For without you I cannot survive For without you I will not strive
Unrequited Soliloquies Of The Heart Estranged By M. Taha Effendi (Sonnet) As I walk along the twilit avenue, A forlorn heart bids the day adieu, The rubicund sun withdraws its weary gaze, Surrenders its quest of endless days, Vagrant clouds drift to uncharted lands, Twilight steals a last glance through evening's hands, The gloaming emblazoned with pink and gray hue, As I walk along the twilit avenue, The west wind wails in melancholy, A lonely river seeks the embrace of the sea, Unchained melodies of the solitaire's refrain, That has emptied love's hemlock to the drains, Unrequited soliloquies of the heart estranged, Nature's course, onerous, unchanged,
I got mad. Didn't know how to use my energy. So I made this song on the piano. I want to sing it with my brother when he's better. I hope he does get better soon. Dedicated to David. Just been so angry lately. And so sad. . . ----------------------------------------------------------------- Verse I: (David) I was alone What can I say? I was lost Couldn't pray I was trapped In their games I regret it Everyday Verse II: (Laura) I was jaded By my sin Never sweated Anything Couldn't sleep Couldn't dream I was scared Of everything Chorus: (David) Within me lies a battle A war I just can't fight alone Can you hear me now? Will you hear me out? Before I lose the struggle I'm begging for some help right now We need to take a stand I need to be a man Laura: Your heart is in my hand Both: (You) I will not fight alone Verse IV: (David) I'm losing faith Can't find the way Can't erase The things I say I see the world Instant pain! If I'm anything I'm insane Verse V: (Laura) Don't talk that way! Just look at me! You are stronger Then I'll ever be! I pulled you in I pushed you free I was foolish Please come back to me Chorus: (David) Within me lies a battle A war I just can't fight alone Can you hear me now? Will you hear me out? Before I lose the struggle I'm begging for some help right now We need to take a stand I need to be a man Laura: Your heart is in my hand Both: (You) I will not fight alone Within me lies a battle A war I just can't fight alone Can you hear me now? Will you hear me out? Before I lose the struggle I'm begging for some help right now We need to take a stand I need to be a man Laura: Your heart is in my hand We'll never fight alone Never Fight Alone
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?
The Women (for the countless women, names unknown, who bore the brunt of Apartheid, and who fought the racist system at great cost to themselves and their families, and for my mother, Zubeida Moolla) Pregnant, your husband on the run, your daughter, a child, a few years old, they hauled you in, these brutish men, into the bowels of Apartheid's racist hell. They wanted information, you gave them nothing, these savage men, who skin happened to be lighter, and white was right in South Africa back then, but, you did not cower, you stood resolute, you, my mother, faced them down, their power, their 'racial superiority', their taunts, their threats. You, my mother, would not, could not break, You stood firm, you stood tall. You, like the countless mothers did not break, did not fall. You told me many things, of the pains, the struggles, the scraping for scraps, the desolation of separation from your beloved Tasneem and your beloved Azad, my elder sister and brother, whom I could not grow up with, your beloved children separated by time, by place, by monstrous Apartheid, by brutish men, whose skin just happened to be lighter. You told me many things, as I grew older, of the years in exile, of the winters that grew ever colder. You were a fighter, for a just cause, like countless other South African women, you sacrificed much, you suffered the pangs, of memories that cut into your bone, your marrow, you resisted a system, an ideology, brutal and callous and narrow. Yes, you lived to see freedom arrive, yet you suffered still, a family torn apart, and struggling to rebuild a life, all the while, nursing a void, that nothing could ever fill. I salute you, mother, as I salute the nameless mothers, the countless sisters, daughters, women of this land, who fought, sacrificing it all for taking a moral stand. I salute you, my mother, and though you have passed, your body interred in your beloved South African soil, you shall remain, within me, an ever-present reminder, of the cost of freedom, the struggles, the hunger, the toil. I salute you! (for the brave women of South Africa, of all colours, who fought against racial discrimination and Apartheid)
Tolerance and love is preached… But, at what price? Too often we forget about Jesus' sacrifice! His death was because our sin counted against us. He died on the cross because he truly loves us! How dare we "cheapen" his work on the cross! In today's "political correctness.." We have lost! In the love and acceptance, we call it "inclusion." This has led many into a serious "confusion." Many want the loving side of God. I can't blame them! But those who seek his holiness… Can you name them? God is a God of love. But he requires holy living too! This is not a request but a command me and you! If it's tolerance and love you want… Look no more! You'll be able to find it washed up on sin's shore! The people of Israel wanted "free love." Look what it got them! Being slaves and captives, is what it taught them! God is a loving God but is also as a consuming fire! Living a righteous life is what he really desires! "Without holiness… No man shall see him." That's why he sent Jesus, to the world beneath him! Won't you allow your sins to be totally forgiven? Only Jesus can change the way you've been livin'! He gives eternal life to those who diligently seek him! The choice is yours to repent and receive him! By Jim Pemberton
He knocks her to the floor, In the night, her blood bleeds black She starts heading for the door, But then he begs her to come back She's in ecstacy, then pain, This has happened times before She's addicted to his game, So she comes on back for more He whispers sorry in her ear, And prays she'll say okay He's always scared that she'll give up, But she always says she'll stay She kisses him, and holds him tight, She knows she'll never leave She tells him it'll be alright, As her heart goes on to bleed
God Gave Me A Talent… I Didn't Use It! God gave me a talent, but I chose to refuse it. I had it… But didn't want to use it! God also gave me the ability to use what was given. But it just "didn't fit in" with my style of livin'! The talent he gave, he wanted for me to share... Although I went to church… I just didn't care! I was like someone who "buried the talent in the ground." When God came looking… I was nowhere to be found. I was embarrassed of what he gave and ashamed. I didn't want to talk about Jesus, or mention his name… I wanted to be careful of who was my friend. If I were to use God's talent, I may easily "offend." We all have talents. God's given them to each one. He's given to us his spirit and Christ Jesus his son! All that we need to accomplish his purpose and goal… He wants to use us! He loves us more than we know! Will you "bury" the talents that God's given to you? Or will you just "turn your back" like others do? He has a divine will for us all. A purpose and plan! He waits for you… With an outstretched hand! Won't you allow him to use you HIS way? Please do it now! Listen to what HE has to say! HIS blessings in your life is for you to receive! Reach out to him now! Trust and believe.! By Jim Pemberton
She has so much pain inside of her, she doesn't know how to address it. So she turns the pain into anger, after she explodes, she becomes quiet. She goes up to her room, upset. Why does the world hate her so? She thinks to herself, "That's it!" But in reality, it isn't though. She lies on her bed, Pulls out her book and reads. As she turns the pages, she loses her head, In her mind, she thinks "This is what I need." A place to escape the world, Somewhere she can run. For it seems everyone hates this girl, And nothing she does is fun. She plays her cello And loses herself in the music She does this when she feels low Then she plays the song of her pick She listens to the beat she makes, Trying to make it sound perfect, But oh, she keeps making mistakes, She thinks that she will never get it. She leaves the cello alone And watches her shows She then grabs her phone And tells her best friend the show as it goes. She leaves the TV on, Then she enters her laptop. She stays on till dawn, She just can't seem to stop. She loves the idea of leaving the real world And entering an imaginary one. That's the story of the girl, Who is never done.
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?
He was just a simple man An uncle, a son, a brother Too soon was his untimely death Just a year after his mother's Just a simple man indeed Another so-called "minority" His death wasn't important enough Not the cop's priority The officer assumed it accidental Without following procedure It must have been too much to ask To take him from his leisure No news or press of his tragic death This simple man was worth no mention Perhaps if his skin were lighter in shade The media might have paid attention And so his killer keeps his freedom Escaping man's judgment and retribution While his family mourns his loss Without justice or restitution Who will be held accountable? Who will make amends? Will there be Earthly justice For his family and friends? In memory of my uncle, Troy Laracuente.

To my girls I want you to know That I see you As equals on every level Not just my daughters My little pink princesses I see you as young women Powers within this world With oceans to offer A lifetime still to learn. Live your lives As though I was still with you Be free and fearless For you can see Life is so short Take all opportunities And shape them to your dreams You have all the tools And I will be watching over you Be good to one another There are only two of you The strength between sisters Is a bond for life. Your analytic minds Will help you make good decisions Fair and just rewards will ensue. Your radiating hearts Will gift you many friendships Maybe special love All in good time. You will never be alone For you have a deep sense of self This will be fortified With my passing Your feet firmly planted Will serve you well Balancing the ups and downs because that's how life is. Always be true to yourself Life will be true to you too. Do not mourn my death I am not going far away. My illness has progressed My time is nigh There is a greater plan One we cannot see But we have had a great life As mother and daughters Our journeys together live on in our memories. My loves I will hold you safe In my heart Now and forever I will always be with you.
But night's bell came with tears and without love, As our bamboo door talked, "KNOCK! KNOCK!!" Before my voice could speak, Legs ruined down my door, Then eyes in different heights In the starry night like Torch lights… attacked Me with their voices. They came in mass, Some brandishing cutlass, Some matchets, guns and arrows. Gang upon gangs, Displaying their flags, Blood stained, tattered, hair, shaggy. They held human heads for their Oracles of war. They were muttering songs as if Forced to sing, They had leaves and grasses in the Middle of their mouths, they were mostly teens, They were the Hausa rebels… "Wait! Wait!! Wait!!! Where are the bells? Is this day not Christmas?" I was asking myself, A short tick man came out of the mass, Not looking like human, He looked backed at the rest, Feeling like the best. He weakened my hear drums By the manner of his question, "Hausa or Birom?". To send my religion to the bottom? Whom for this day, is Christmas? And sweet Messiah's Calvary at Golgotha? I wasn't prepared for that, So the truth came out like a blast "Birom!!". "Yee! Yee!! Yee!!! Enemy tribes" they shouted Like savage talking drums. (To be continued in the next, same Poem).
Hello disappointment You visit me pretty often these days Wish I could say seeing you again was an amusement I'm hoping your coming so much is just a faze Mr. Disappointment you're becoming the only feelings I feel anymore The happiness has started to fade away I want our old life back where we were in love and a bore Mr. Disappointment you make my life dark and gray I miss the times where I would laugh and giggle for hours I miss the times when I was the only one he wanted to be around When you come around disappointment its tears and long hot showers This love I used to feel is starting to be such a big let down I don't want to be treated like this I have to show him I am worth caring about I miss our happy bliss It's either he straighten up or finds a different route Goodbye disappointment I want my baby's kiss
I can act insane But DO NOT Make me feel worthless I belong in God's family He will bless my future generation Don't punish me for Being myself – Don't envy my glee I can act like an Adult, but I'd Prefer to have joy… Not stress… That piles upon us in our Everyday lives Being childlike is A rare beauty – No one prizes it… No one came across it… In this lifetime… I can laugh all day I can make you smile If you'd accept my Childlike dreams of mine Don't treat me like a sick swine Renew my young heart Give me the ability To kill the old man… I have my place in God's family He'll be adored and glorified We'll exchange prayers and hugs By my future generation I beg of you – Don't kill my childlike mentality I'll behave myself… I'm positively sure that I'll make you happy I'll still have pieces of a child in me And pass it on to my future generation…
Why? Why? Why? Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why? Was it, because I was too nice, I was too much of a gentleman, or was just too much to handle? Was it, because you were young? Was it, because you couldn't find your heart, in all that darkness? Was it, because you just didn't feel the love? Why? Why me? A man like me, deserves no pain, no heartbreak. So, why me? I pray and ask the Gods, why! But an unresponsive god never speaks to me. He sits there and watches... watching what? Nothing, but a heart being torn to shreds. Was it, because I was too careful? Was it, because I loved too much? Was it, because one half of the heart couldn't fit the whole? I ask you, because I still love you. Come to me, my beautiful, stop this nonsense, I cannot make you love me, but I sure can try to show you love. Do not blink, do not take a gift sent down from the Gods for granted. Appriciate what you have, appriciate me, because one day, when you need a shoulder to cry one, you will not be able to find me, anywhere. I will be lost, in a fool's dream of romance and love, that will never come on my front doorstep. Still dreaming of the possibilities of you and I. My heart is with you always, but I will soon expire, so do not wait too long. -10/5/2013
A Very Inviting Temptation! I remember of a particular situation. I was offered a very "inviting" temptation. The situation I was in... I didn't belong! And lost any sense of "right and wrong." At first... I felt no guilt or shame. And brought embarrassment to my family's name. I tried to explain this to my wife and kids. I heard; "Dad... please... no more fibs!" The Godly principles were "tossed to the side," As the sin inside caused arrogance and pride. Soon, all in my life that truly mattered... Was gone! My life was empty and shattered! I was sorry for all of the problems I caused! This time... I took a moment to pause. I cried to God to rescue me from my sin. I confessed! Would God help me once again? I read in the Bible of Jesus' grace and love! This time the help I needed had to come from above! I asked him for a fresh and brand new start. He removed the stain from a broken heart. He restored to me the joy I once had. I'm so blessed! Jesus has made me glad! Jesus is the reason I'm here today! I LOVE HIM more than words can say! By Jim Pemberton
My mom was a strong woman, and stubborn too, Yet she had a soft side, between me and you. That side she would show, when you least expected, But let me tell you, she was well respected. Mom was quite unique, and was one of a kind, She was set in her ways, so keep that in mind. The youngest of nine, she had gotten her way, Spoiled by her siblings', almost every day. Right out of high school, she had married my dad, Blessed with three children, plus fifty years they had. They both were hard workers, in all that they did, My dad taught himself, from when he was a kid. My mom was a smoker, for forty-six years, Some day it would happen, she'd face all her fears. Lung cancer she had, and inoperable too, Her time on this earth, would be shortened we knew. Radiation and Chemo, had done their thing, Remission set in, tears of joy it did bring. We would go out at night, to shop and to talk, I knew she enjoyed, getting out for a walk. Two years had gone by, after Thanksgiving Day, Her pain had returned, but was afraid to say. She'd lie on the couch; it was strength she did lack, We knew in our hearts, that the cancer came back. We shared lots of laughter, but many a tear, I tried to assure her, she'd nothing to fear. "Please watch over your dad, this one thing I ask." "I know it will be, quite a difficult task." One morning in March, Hospice called us to say, You may want to come, for she's slipping away. For the night before, mom told me to stay home, "Be there for your kids, you can call me by phone." When we all arrived, for a moment she woke, Her eyes said it all, not a word had she spoke. We stayed by her bedside, just holding her hand, "It's time to let go mom, we all understand". A few days had passed, not ready to let go, For it had been raining, but letting up slow. The sun began shining, the clouds disappeared, Opening the heavens, for mom's time has neared. We gathered together, her forehead we kissed, Whispering so softly, how much she'd be missed. "Your time has arrived mom, just follow the light", She left us so peaceful, she gave up her fight. It was time to drive home, in the car we got, Then something had happened, while leaving the lot. Huge drops of rain falling, it had to be fate. They were tears of joy; she was at heaven's gate.

I can't hear the words as they come from my mouth I can't hear the screams as they work their way out As I write all is seen is a blur and blank moment and Once recovered sensed the words were written,not Even a look to see what was written only to know it Was there.Sleepless night,taunt filled faces horde my Dreams.Have this made me fall so low no longer am I Am I able to stand on my own to feet.How many times Will you make me cry before claiming only to being a Witness in a crime,your crime. Putting on that face Working the crowds with amazing easily,how I hate you Yes all the thing I think about revolve around you. How many times have I witness myself wound my self With your blade? As though under a spell doing as order Without a cry to the world what made me so diligent ? But no longer can you be a witness,No longer can I be A witness to these crimes that been committed.Be us both Sinners be us both lovers be that we both be cursed We shall witness our sins become whole and the love in Which we share spread further and further like the flames Of hades. May there be peace for sinners in the next world. We are both witnesses and at the same time We are both sinners one day to become consumed by our Own darkness how far will we fall until that moment comes? May we be good may we be bad may we fall may we live may May we die or carry on we are the Witnesses We are the Sinners To this world and the next.
The wind blew events all over the place. Intense emotions and it gave chase. Lightning lighting to show us the sky. People try to sleep and not cry. Wisping by the wind keeps us awake. The time trying to sleep the storms take. Chills in everyone gives all shiver. The clouds surrounded by moonlight is silver. Heavenly prayers that the rain will stop. The flood stopped a car the person in it was a cop. People have seen such devastation. The road that people made was week in creation. Rivers near by was over flowing. Trees that were there was not showing. By the hour it claimed many. My father woke up and did not see any. Floating by was a boat. Keeping people above water and a float. My father kept a canoe. That some day we would use it, that he knew. Time to paddle up and down the street. The rain water kept getting on our seat. It was so dark after the moon was behind the cloud. Still the noise of thunder still covered the ears loud. The smell of moist water never seem to go away. My brothers seem to still sleep anyway. My head was bobbing up and down. I was so tired that I could not hear a sound. The wind blew back and fourth. It seems that my mom and dad paddle their worth. Till all the people we saw with grace. Help us out with embrace. The time was so late at night. Everyone was so sleepy and losing sight. The fight with the weather was so hectic. The feelings of energy was electric. Losing to such natural disaster is hard to understand. When people working hard to block the river with bags of sand. With hard workers like my mom and dad. They make things happen that is not bad. Rough with weather they experience more than ever. Leaders they are they are very clever. From the night light of street lights to the morning glow. The wind did not stop so. Bringing in more clouds that ill. The people who were still tired still had will. The rush of water and waves blasting push the wall side. Pushing and the force brought water inside. The battle of our hour was getting long. Backup people came to aid us was strong. Rested they were to keep everyone with hope. The people stopped the water with the strength of rope. Heavy rain and loss of homes bring people together. It is kind of sad that this was the only time to gather. Chaos comes happiness how true. This is why we are human that gives us a clue. It is our nature to keep rain falling. To know when it is time for our calling. The winds bring such pain and sorrow. That is why rain sometimes fallow.
Is It God We Trust? Or Leave In the Dust? As our courts remove God from this great nation. We are left with a confused and lost generation! As God is taken away from our public schools. A huge tide of immorality is what "rules." The Bible is often mocked and discarded. It was on it's principles this country was started! Just about anything of God seems to get scorned. So many "rush" to worship many ungodly forms. As God's name is often tossed and thrown out. We tend to forget what HE is all about! Too often, his plans for living are tossed and abused. No wonder, there's many who are lost and confused! As people forget God and worship the fallen creature. They look to themselves and "glorify" their features. Many ignore God, and get involved in deep addictions. And with this, come disease, heartache and afflictions! As God looks and sees this nation "bleeding." It's his righteousness, that we need to be seeking! If we would humble ourselves, he would hear our prayer! He loves all of us! And he really does care! Won't you come to HIM, And invite him in? Won't you allow him to be your master and friend? He brings strength and nourishment to the soul! It's only in him that we can be made whole! By Jim Pemberton
There's a Web of Temptation and Sin! There's a web of temptation and a lot of sin… That brings slavery and a strong bondage within! Throughout this land, there's an evil surge! While many lives, seem to be getting "submerged!" Being submerged, into a life, that many believe in. They become perverted, but want all to receive them! The "love and acceptance," that many desire. Puts them on a tightrope! A very thin wire! As the web of temptation and sin begin to grow. It brings a bondage that damages the soul! They may want to have "love and acceptance." But in their hearts, needs to be a godly repentance! May the holiness of a righteous God be stirred! That all will come back, to the truth of his word! His son Jesus, came to the cross! He bled and died! That through him, our lives can be totally sanctified! Only the power of God, can bring a needed restoration! He gives to one and all… A heavenly invitation! Whosoever will… Come now! And accept him! Won't you take the time, to really know him? Don't allow the web of life to destroy and overcome you! Come to Jesus now! He really does LOVE YOU! By Jim Pemberton
I'm so busy with church… I don't have much time… But God forgives me…. So is this a crime? I go each Sunday, and do "the church thing." I'm just too busy, to really do anything! I'm there on time. I try not to be late. I even give my ten percent into the offering plate! I bring my Bible, and wear a suit and tie. I sing the worship songs, shout and cry. Do you need any help or prayer? Please wait in line…. I'm busy right now! And don't have the time! I'll direct you to the pastor to make an appointment… Perhaps he'll pray and give you an anointment! This is what I offer! And the best I can do!. I just don't have the time for people like you! Maybe I'll see you again. Maybe I won't… But giving my time for others? I simply don't… I'm trying to look good for my "Sunday appearance." Anything less, would be a "new experience." I hope you'll forgive me for saying "excuse me." Maybe I'll find another time for you to be with me…. By Jim Pemberton
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
All I want is to be with you. Time beats on, but I miss you no less. Sadness hits me hard, I want nothing but you. Life here is so dark, you are my only light. Forced apart, tearing me apart. All I want is to be with you. No smile shows while you're gone. Only sad eyes and cold stares. All I want is to be with you. This life I'm living, so bleak. In my mind, all I see is you face. I hear only your voice, feel only your touch. And I search for your scent. All I want is to be with you. Time beats on, but I miss you no less.
A single kiss from thy lovely lips, so sweet and so divine, yet I taste posion upon your tongue. Your beauty so glorious, like a blooming rose so beautiful, yet, why do mine eyes go blind in the sight that you walk along with another? Yes you, walk with another, arm under arm, lips touching lips in romantic kisses, it makes my blood boil, for mine lips are dry. For mine eyes have seen your glory, yet no one here listens to my story. You are evil, yes you are, don't try to deny, Listen to a man of experience, you might as well save some expense. I write of our long romantic walks we took together, under the shade of olive trees, how we went apple picking in autumn time, and made love in the foyer. Nomore of that sweet and passionate love, nomore silent kisses in the night, when the wind blows hard against the branches, that tape violently on my windowpane. Nomore somber tears shed, when you got sick, and nomore warm embraces when you shed tears of betrayal. Betrayal now is a game played by a fool, such as I, to think I'd have a happy life with you? Huh, only a fool would think such a thing, but now I sit, looking at the foyer, where we once made sweet, passionate love, nomore will that foyer be filled with exotic pleasure. Nomore will you be filled with smiles and exotic pleasure. I've done my job, as a good man shall do, now pack your things and get of my stage, the spotlight yawns for anew, and the audience grows tired and restless of you. Now I live life anew, you too shall see life in new eyes, walking hand and hand with the blond, blue eyed devil you call your own. Shall he take one kiss from your lips, and die of the posion he tastes on your tongue, shall he go blind, when he sees your true, black beauty? He will see the ugly soul, covered up by white rags, and cheap makeup, and then he will come to me, and shake my hand in condolence and say, "You were right!" Now you are all alone, looking for another, as you did many times before, Now you are alone, walking an open road, spying on another, fear of being alone. Now, you see when you play games with a good man's emotions, don't try it, because a good man is not meant to be toyed with.
I knew you, not so long ago When you were just a little boy Always there for your baby sister I felt then that you carried a burden And regret that I could not reach you At ten years old, I didn't get you to "speak" it I will always remember you, Savione The warm smile you hid; seldom showed Lived just behind those sad, brown eyes You had moved far away Cali with Mom And your Dad, I'm sure you missed Whatever made you sad, I'd never know But soon, we also moved away We heard how you'd grown into a young man Still taking care of your sister; Still with those sad brown eyes Glad you made many friends along the way Losing touch for those few years, haunts me I'll never know why you took your life… Maybe I should have kept in touch with Mom Should have mentioned, how you looked so sad I'll never know why you took your life…. At twenty three, what darkness took you to the edge? Was there no one to whom you could turn? Did I miss a chance to share the burden with you? So sad is the day you went away I'll never know why you took your life…. ~*~ For Savione...sleep in peace, little one. +
Random thoughts of you run randomly throughout my mind, as I hold, looking through a simple picture of you and I, smiles and holding each other, embracing warmth brings me to sanity, watching your hand on my forearm, as you gaze into my eyes. Oh the tears flood such emotion, only you and I now in such madness we call love, such madness we all call life, such madness we all call reality. Thoughts of me without you, I cannot bear to see such a sight in mind, to hear such words that tear my heart out and sadness stabs me rapidly in the back, and I can't bear to see such a sight as this. Thoughts of you running randomly throughout my mind, my hair turns silver and white with stress of not being with you, and my liver covered with cancer, and lungs black with smoke, and stomach embraced with ulcers. All I ask for you, is not to be a thought anymore, and come back to me in flesh and bone in a portrait painting of you in reality come to me with your beauty and glory and kind heart and hold me again, and let me kiss you again and love you again, and call you mine again. Don't say it is impossible, when you know and I know, that it is in fact possible to love each other once again.
My Sins – Zamreen Zarook Oh God you are so gracious, Am a guy who have done since in capacious, At times I have being as a carnivorous, But it charged ages to identify as dangerous. Since are being committed behind the screen, Even it started at my thirteen, Mirrors used to say that I am evergreen, Whereas my since were always unseen. In enormous number I have executed, But for every count, high privacy was aborted, Simply because of your blessings we are bracketed, If not, we are already being quoted. Oh God, I understood your kindness, Here after I won't commit since in others absence, However much chances I get to access, I will always have heaven as my address.
A broken promise, demoralized man who is incapable of being true, A thoughtless coward, oblivious clown, this is what I think of you, A woeful chicken, a runaway guy is how you're now portrayed, A selfish critter, a prideful morsel is the reputation you have made, When flesh spoils in a slaughter house the smell of you comes to mind, For your manipulation has made you completely colorblind, In your mothers soil you were the bad seed, As you grew up we realized you were just a weed, A fragmentation, with no revelation is who you really are, A scab that stopped healing, the beggar who keeps on stealing, now just another scar, A predicable cycle, a sick little mess, a hidden agenda that isn't well dressed, A miserable liar, disposable fool, too bad you weren't like an infertile mule, Just like a wolf, you would consume your own, For apparently humanity was something you were never shown, Just like wild animals that abandon their first litter, You fit right in, you unoriginal quitter.

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
(Dedicated to Danielle Bryant) It's your special day And I have so much to say. Oh that time will let me, There are thousands of things to make you see: The happy times, Lengthening with the clock's chimes; The beautiful talks we exchanged, Never believing there could be a change; The midnight conversations, Smiles on our faces our only compensation; Our dreams and hopes, The only reason we could cope. Those moments we spent together Are memories I'll cherish forever; Memories I can look at and smile, Knowing they are reasons to aim high. Oh if I could do more than just words And not pull memory chords! It's your special day And my own very special way Of wishing a happy birthday To a friend who just walked away.
We sometimes drink and smoke so much We get beat until we are battered Our dreams were like one giant wall of glass where upon they were destined to be shattered Broken in a heap of glass we now stay occupied where lost souls continue to gather Dark yet so desolate living amongst those were nothing in life but a quick death seems to matter It seems as if the harder we try the more below we get needing somekind of ladder All I hear are silent screams among gossiping chit chatter Our truth is getting skinnier while our lies are well fed by the way the are getting fatter Crying souls overcome those that are filled with laughter The clock for many of us gets slow but our life train to death only gets faster Many of us which remain lost in addiction looking for a positive leader, a mentor, some kind of master But when shyt hits the fan we must remain strong even if we just lost someone close and are feeling sadder If life is to throw us those curveballs in a the ring then its time stop mr nice guy and get badder You must endure the shyt that you got to endure even if it gets your hands and feet a little tathered Life can and will get you drunk so handle your drink or let it bring you down until you can no longer stagger You must tell yourself **** them and everybody else because you still got skill even if you aint got swagger Just tell yourself "**** they judgements" because you know in your own eyes you still look sharper than a dagger SO QUIT ACTING LIKE YOU AINT NEVER BEEN MENTALLY BEAT UNTIL YOUR PERSONALITY WAS BATTERED.....BECUASE IT WHAT YOU MAKE IT IN THE END THAT TRULY MATTERS!!!!!
I miss you more than I could ever properly stress... You were a great friend, a true proper friend that anyone would be lucky to have known and luckier still to call their friend. I cherish the many times we shared together in laughter and fun. I think of you often and wish to go back to those simpler days, when things didn't get complicated or even hard. But as I write these words and remember you I wish for only your forgiveness. I let you down and I so very sorry. If I could have been a better person. A better friend then maybe now we'd still be able to share the laughter, the happiness, the pain, and the sadness within our lives. But as it is I abandoned you and lost a truly precious gift. If not for my selfishness perhaps you still might smile in the most dire of times... with an aching heart and heavy head I ask for your forgiveness as I lay you down to rest Perhaps if I were better, If I had been a good true friend Then you would have felt so alone in the end My dear Alleria... I miss you every day With an aching heart I now finally say Goodbye sweet friend...it has been a year I must go, and leave you once more. But this time I leave you in the hands of God He will care for you and guide you With as much love as I possess... Farewell... I will always, miss you. --- In Loving memory: Alleria June 07, 1993-August 20. 2012
A footstep so smooth; A word so candid, yet strong: A mind, so full of empathy, came straight up to my heart: Knock, knock, knock, are we there? Or, are we still strangers? The long pile of stories of life, Unfolded, into your lap, with tears — Some horrid, some slimy, but all true. Solutions and steps were put forth: Knock, knock, knock, are we there? Or, are we still strangers? Moments of silence, in tears, Emotions riding high, Darkness so deep, fathomless; Keyboard, whispers, brought hope. Life sprouts, naturally, With light, and manure — right, Springing from words of wisdom: Knock, knock, knock, are we there? Or, are we still strangers? A ray of light sprouted, as did life, From within me; and my words Grew wings of fire, and sprung Right onto paper, as poems and news. Alas, the thrill lasted not long — Black venom of the fire of Satan Swirled around me, eating me up: Knock, knock, knock, are we there? Or, are we still strangers? The silence, construed as disregard, The lag and the arguments; Words of war, and then — SILENCE. Search, search, search… Life went off action; No sound, no light, no life. SILENCE, SILENCE, SILENCE. Knock, knock, knock, are we there? Or, are we — after all — strangers?
My ache licks like a furnace, Silent Spark For you have further prolonged my patience; Building on the weak to perturb the dark, To surrender selfish sense of silence; Your silence, an incision to the heart, Angers that which disappears out of sight, That mocks life, to its desolate ill part; Cowers me out, so far-sight may ignite. Bright am I now, lost into void and woe, A panic fire orb which hath poured; My speech and my prudence still lacketh flow, Blackened from all heat sorely abhorred Oh, I do light thee well as I may try For you I burn on, till the day I die
Listen, I have something to say Oh! It's not really me, It's my heart It's crying saying, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry It's broken saying, I'll never get tired of saying that every minute of my life. It's dying saying, I'm sorry, I'll never get tired even if all signs points me to none. It's lost saying, I am not expecting anything But you can expect me to say I'm sorry still, even if all signs points to none. It's sorry saying, I missed you. It's hoping saying, Please forgive me.

I sit, crumbled on the icey bathroom floor, shivering, head between my knees fighting off the nausea. Sobbing Lost, Alone, Ashamed... gasping for breath, burning from the inside out. Silent Screams fill my lungs bursting to release, needing to rid the disgust! Broken, Battered my heart torn to pieces, each tear like a cold blade down my fiery cheeks. Nails digging deeper into my palms, Crimson Cresent Moons show my Pain. You look at me and Smile with those Cold, Lying eyes. PIG! MONSTER! HOW! WHY! OH GOD WHY! I wish to scream at your Ugly Face! I continue on suddle locked in my prision. Flashbacks that make me Nauseaus, Cringing inside. Tears that haunt me, reminding me at night. The aching in my heart Hollow and Stale. Tho I walk, you have stolen the Innocence of Life from me. I would like to dedicate this to all the Women, to all the Children and yes even to all the Men who are or who have been victims of sexual abuse. Every 2.5 minutes a woman in sexually abused. To all my Brothers and Sisters, to the Torn and Aching Hearts stay strong, one day our tears will be heard. Love, Ashley
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.
I pray for the day, That my sweet child comes home, To my loving arms, So, I can love and hold them tightly, Each and everyday of their lives, To be there for them and guide them, As they learn to grow, Into a wonderful adult, That I know they will become, For they have such a wonderful heart, And as people will see them grow each year, Learning along their way, Having their own imagination, To shine and guide them, To be a very unique person of their own, But they are already very different, In many different ways, By their looks and their loving heart, And of course being very smart, Their beauty will shine, In many different ways, Both inside and out, And I pray for the day, They will come home, To stop these painful, loving tears.
I'm from the hood where the politicians don't do squat for the poor/ I represent the modern day Black man/ The Black educated politician and activist that care about only one Damn thing when the stuff hit the fan! "They Damn Self!" It's like a wise man once said "Never let the left hand know what the right hand do" meaning keep all of the right hands right and all of the left hands left/ Ever since then the tradition has been eating off the next mans death/ It's like a jungle sometimes it makes me wonder whether I should go buy books or go buy a T.V,/Then again I wonder what's wrong with these rap artists calling us window shoppers like we nothing! Then them same rap artist turn around and beg us to go buy they C.D/ "Buy Black Owned!!" "Keep the Money in the Hood!" That's all you hear/ We tried and it went/ Now at the same time I'm behind in my rent/ I hate the usage of the word Negroes! But when I look at these new condos being built all around Harlem/ I realize Negroes got a problem/ The rent not affordable/ They go do what they wanna do/ just to get Negroes out of Harlem/ What happened to all the great MALCOLMS, MARTINS, and MARCUS/ Cause all we got now is a bunch of fake FARRAKHANS, SHARPTONS and BARRAKAS!/ nah just kidding!Hopefully not my last hope BARAK OBAMA! But I wonder when it's all go stop!/ Cause when I look at my peoples now a days/ All I see is "I see DISASTER!! And realize "Yeah we still SLAVES"/ But the sad part is WE THE MASTER!!

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.
The sound of thunder wind and the rain the sound of my heart in sorrow and pain The sound of your footsteps I still hear on the stairs sitting at the table with my crying face The sound of the children crying for their dad our hearts are empty confused and very sad The sound of your laughter still rings in my ear when you left I'm here living in fear The sound of your voice calling for my name you left me all alone tell me who to blame? The sound of your car you drove that night with me the lights that blinded you the road you couldn't see The sound of open door no smile and no face you left that night away to the unknown place The sound of crying angels NO sound of beating heart the death that stood between us and now we are apart The sound of empty heart the sound of empty soul the sound one day will break when I'm ready to let you go

There was a ballplayer named "Ron", I would always run home to watch him on television. He batted fourth and played the third base spot, That's the corner they always called "Hot". As a power hitter and great fielder he stayed, Fifteen years in the big leagues he played. An "All Star" player many times over, Because he was a perennial "Gold Glover". He wore the number 10 on his uniform, But his emotions for his team on his sleeve were worn. Ron Santo was this player's name, He should be in baseball's "Hall of Fame". He was tenacious about his life's view, Ever positive, as he fought Diabetes and Cancer too. I had the good fortune to meet the man, And listened to his story of the "Black Cat"....SCRAM!!! He raised awareness and millions for JDRF, Gone now to the ages, this his legacy would be left. One thing that all of you should know, Wherever he went, he put on a great show. On a "Field of Dreams" he now will play, Where he can click his heels every day. Swollen with tears now our red eyes we rub, At the endearing loss of "This Old Cub". We'll miss his radio groans, his sighs, and his laughter too, Because like us, his veins ran only with "Cubbie Blue".
Over the years, I think about how this country has changed. It's like "right vs. wrong" has been "rearranged." We're told that a separation from man and God exists. Yet the handiwork of God is in our very midst! Rather than seeking to obey God's word and rules. Our courts have turned this country into "fools." The whole idea of marriage is often very confusing. Many don't think about the wrong path they're choosing! Government often passes laws that provide a "moral instability." We've often lost our respect for a Godly type of morality. As people's lives get filled with lusts of various kinds. Many are wandering around with very confused minds! "One nation under God" is too often under attack. As this country is quickly "getting off track!" If "change" is what you want, or what you're looking for. Think about the purpose of life you're meant for! The direction you need to travel, is to the Lord in prayer. Wherever you are... He will meet you there! Christ alone removes any "God or state" separation. By his shed blood and his gift of salvation! There's no Supreme Court near heaven's gates! There's a God who loves who, and anxiously waits! He longs for you to receive his life eternal. So he can put your name in heaven's journal! Won't you allow his love to cleanse you within? And experience the atonement for every sin! May the Lord bring to us all a healing and restoration! He is the only true hope for our great nation! By Jim Pemberton
You'll only collapse and fall and tear your knees open, Shut your mouth, you cant even imagine what hell I've broken. Blood leaking from my head everyday only makes me lose my mind, You wouldn't even survive a minuet in my shoes if you were on my grind. You say you know everything about me and how to live your own life, but face it tho, every night your left alone sitting with a knife. I defeated that part in life where i have to do something for someone, walking around with my "Ex Wife" as if it were my gun. So please stop talking like you know what you got your self into, cause if i were you i would open my eyes and pray that I'm not true. So here it is, if you want to walk a bit in these shoes of mine, go ahead, But I can promise you only one thing, in the end you'll end up Dead.
3.04 February 6th 1958 was the time and date of the accident The Munich disaster that took out half a football team No one thought we would be back again We couldn't even imagine to dream Was this to be the end? We lost so much talent How were we ever going to mend? We needed a miracle to help with our challenge So many fallen tears Families and fans left broke Would the pain ever clear? Where was the hope? Some thought our football club was over Was this the end of the story? Somehow we managed to rebuild and fight like soldiers This eventually led us to future glory Some rival fans make jokes and like to mock They are a disgrace to football as a sport How are you going to joke when lives were lost? But most will keep them in their thoughts It happened almost 35 years before I was born But all of you are remembered Everything Manchester United do ensures your memories lives on We stay United in Manchester
Your words are like stones Whether skipped or thrown Destination unknown They fly alone Bruising and breaking deeper than bones Yet pain from these stones will never be shown. Whether near or far She'll faithfully wait Till the unknown date When those stones are kind and lost of hate You make mistakes Yes she can relate But what if the pain becomes to great Whe the kindness comes too late Such small pieces of her heart whats left to make She gave to much Now there's none to take Just one everlasting ache That your stones did create They say you can never retake A women's heart once it breaks So next time withhold the quake Your stones with take And keep this lesson As a dear keepsake. <3 Kalee Lynn
My parents taught me the Christian ways. I was taught to obey what the Bible says. I was proud of my parents! I really was! And loved them so much… Just because! They meant everything to me! I was proud! Until one day... There appeared "a dark cloud." It was like a "darkness" hovered above. Leaving their marriage empty of needed love! Though they were together many years. There were many cracks that soon appeared. I say a once happy home soon destroyed. Being with one another…. They no longer enjoyed! How could this happen! I had wondered… To see a happy marriage "totally plundered As sin crept in... And allowed to prevail. Very soon this marriage simply failed. May this be a warning for me and you… That our commitment remains faithful and true! If your marriage is heading toward separation… Please seek God for a healing and restoration! If your planning to have a divorce.. Jesus' love can put it on the right course! He can replace the brokenness and hurt within.. And can put your lives back together AGAIN! By Jim Pemberton

The candles we light in honor of your name Reflect the brightness you gave to our lives Burn away at the darker side surrounding Giving way to freedom's path for your spirit Helping bring healing to the hearts that miss you Binding you in mind, faith and prayer So your memory can live on and bring comfort To those that walk in hope, with you beside them
It is the Tenth Anniversary of "9-11" What a day we will always remember! We believe those brave souls went to Heaven, That tragic day in September! As we take a heart breaking look back, We meditate on the innocent lives lost! Although we over came that vicious attack, We still mourn the incredible cost! We close our eyes for a moment in silence, And the silence can seem long and loud. Yes, wWe overcame the senseless violence For we are Americans, and we are damn proud!!
A Chance Encounter A chance encounter the other day Got me chatting to a stranger Just for some time to pass away. He was very well groomed, very smart. Spoke well too, seemed a decent sort. I told him a little tale I had learned whilst at work. Outside a building that's up for sale Close to the centre of the town A queue of people gathered. Old clothes, hand me downs. Inside people of good heart and souls Were behind tables long. And a kind of soup was poured into bowls. A slice of bread was added to each one poured. As the hungry-eyed came through the door. As each one passed a thank you was heard. Grateful for the meal today. A simple reply least we can do. All was silent no complaints from the poor. Till a young voice said, 'Please Mummy I want more.' I sat back in my chair waiting for a reply. The guy opposite gave a big sigh. He said, 'Things were tough in those days Very hard for the poor in the Victorian Age. They were ignored, did not count, How could others treat them like that?' No-one should be without the means I say, To feed and clothe their children today. I looked at him and shook my head. My dear friend you misunderstand The tale was not yesteryear or a foreign land. I visited a local food bank the day before last. And like you I was taken aback. Unless with my eyes I had seen, The myth about scroungers I would still believe. Some get the dregs, others get the cream. This is Great Britain in 2013. But the people of our Nation are strong In times of strife they speak as one. 'We are mighty as Caesar, mighty as Rome.' ' NI CARBORUNDUM BASTARDORUM'
Once upon a time in the great darkness of life there was a young boy and his twin sister. The boy went through life defending his sister making sure she didn't get hurt and saving her from all the pain he had to endure. The other kids in his village teased him and beat him every day they saw him but he still fought to give everything to his sister. Then one of his greatest fights came along a wild dog had wondered into their house and was looking for food. The boy saw the dog going after his sister and rushed to push her away as the dog bit him instead. As he felt the dog's teeth sink into his shoulder. The boy realized that not only had he saved his sister but he had doomed himself he hadn't used enough caution when saving her and now he has to pay for it. He smiles at the dog and gives it a hug before saying "Thanks do what you need." He closes his eyes and waits for the end but he only feels the wild dog slowly release him and walk away. The boy's wounds heal and he lives still sacrificing everything for his sister but as time went on he saw his sister begin to hate him. Finally the boy was about to reach his seventeenth birthday when a very cunning very powerful wolf descended on their home. The boy fought with all his might he fought to save his sister but not even when he finally asked his family for help but they were to scared to afraid of the wolf. but the final strike was dealt to the boy as he faded in and out of consiousness the boy saw his sister being taken away by the wolf. as the world faded to darkness the boy said his final words to his world he was leaving behind. "Dear sister I'm sorry I was never strong enough never cunning enough to truely save you I have failed you and with my last breath I wanted to say I love you.
Her smile always greets me As I close my eyes each night The love in her voice is comforting With passion, she's burning so bright A sparkle in her eyes And a fire in her heart Let's spend together our lives Couldn't stand To Be Apart To Be Apart would destroy me Reduce me to the tears Without her right beside me All throughout the years I don't know what I'd do If I ever had to restart And oh how much I'd lose If we were To Be Apart The most beautiful girl I'd ever seen With every desirable too She was everything to me When we're apart, oh what will I do?
Like an animal im locked away in this cage, Standing in the middle of this stage, With chains all over my soul trying to break free, The feeling is to painful like a feeling from a thorned tree. I scream out at the top of my lungs, Set me free, of the chains that are holding me with evil tongues. Living with my soul being captured, feels like im dead, Pulling and taring these chains from my soul only hurts my head. I finally fall to my knees and cry out, I reach my hand out to God, apologizing for getting caught. He forgives me like he always does and breaks these chains that im held by, Now I can walk with a smile on my face and not wanting to die.
On roads to nowhere/everywhere white crosses dot the countryside seeking a final resting place abandoned now to wait for plastic flowers to be placed as if somehow this will bring closure to loved ones who mourn their passing from interstate to ether state from sadness to glory from son daughter mother father grandfather orphan to eternal rest. White crosses maybe one maybe five returning to death no longer alive. one brief instant horror to blessed rest on a cold siding/a concrete ribbon/ a drainage ditch/a nowhere road. Are they resting there or are they crying to let them be with others in this clay state that means nothing. now the remains of yesterday clinging to memories faded as the plastic flowers/teddy bears/grayed out names that mean nothing to but a simple few who will not let them rest. Oh my soul mourns to let them free let Jeanette go free Bill S. on that lonely road let B.R. road worker lay his tools and vest and hard hat down Fred S. is a memory nothing more nothing less/let them rest … we long to be at rest not be looked upon by passersby who wonder why our crosses are in the middle of Nowhere/we are nowhere to be found. We cry for justice of the past/let us sleep where we are not where the metal and pain and stench and broken glass found us …
In love's limited life Equal are my losses and gains I've gained some tear's drops in eyes And peace for ever lost Some wishes still remain to be met Some tears that I've not yet shed My heart still some stories keeps That could not ever come to my lips There are tears veiled by my smiles There are pains hidden by my liveliness The heart that gave me anguish and pain Today I am making its eyes rain My yearning that burnt me once Today I am putting it to flame I'm happy though that my heart's wounds Are solace to some ones heart For, afflictions I am gifted with I know not whether a cure will come Non other will ever understand this pain If not burned in similar flame O my heart! Fret not, if you can Anguish is the destiny of man Sintra, Portugal. 20-6-2012
A father is someone that holds your hand at the fair makes sure you do what your mother says holds back your hair when you are sick brushes that hair when it is tangled because mother is too busy lets you eat ice cream for breakfast but only when mother is away he walks you down the aisle and tells you everythings gonna be ok
The wind whispers through the night Cool against the mist on my skin A neon sign that reads "Motel" lights my way Hundreds more have lit where I've been This night isn't unlike countless before Walking endlessly with nowhere to go I pass a drunk in a doorway And think "now there's something I know" All I own is here on my back And the memories I have of you Lost everything when you left Now I walk Alone and Blue Alone and Blue Living with memories of you Alone and Blue What the hell am I going to do Alone and Blue No matter how hard I try Alone and Blue You never even told me why Sometimes I wish it would all end All the pain and suffering gone Putting my weary mind at ease My soul could then carry on But until then I walk through the mist That rides upon the whispering winds And go on hearing your voice My sanity... I try to defend Alone and Blue Living with memories of you Alone and Blue Are you lonely too??
poems of love poems of hate closing doors and clicking gates Gates of white Gates of blue all beg for something new something new something old something saying lets be bold i know you and i know something you would like to do so take my hand and lets leave behind the seas and the sand fly to a new beginning leave all these people we watch sinning
Paying back what I owe. I guess that some are wondering Why I'm writing all this stuff About the man John Sherman Maybe you've had enough But I owe the man so much He taught me how to be A man who lives more in the moment With a heart and soul that's free. I was angry, rude and antisocial I had no friends at all No one wanted me around I'd drive them up the wall With all my foolish paranoid And the hatred deep within I tried with everything I had To quell the nasty din. But then I read Johns message As I did surf the net He told me 'do one little act!!' And I have no regrets That I did take the mans advice For look at me today My happiness is my success And joy, it is my way. Now I'm a very loyal man I must pay back what I owe John and Carla changed my life So I want the world to know I make me no false promises I just say look and see It doesn't cost nothing at all But it made a brand new me. 13 July 2013 @ 1208hrs.

I'll cut you into little pieces, push you down underground. I'll let maggots feast on you, just to see broken flesh. I'm glad you understand my twisted self, and you take part of my daily bread. I'm going to hang you from the highest star in the heavens, burning your laughter from your lungs. I'd be joyful, emotionless, wreckage not even God Himself can undo. Underground the maggots chew and chew, hey girl there I see you.
Holes are dug The tents raised Men and women salute As they carry your body away The flag draped over so graceful Exhibiting patriotism of the brave Honoring the risk you willingly took As we march in silence toward your grave My fellow comrade, my partner Forever my best friend Life for us was just beginning When it turned for a swiftning end I felt my stomach tightly churn When I saw your name on the list Sinking back into the moment We shared our final goodbye kiss Now as they lower you down gently My heart follows right behind Though you can't be with me now in body Our souls will always be intertwined I'll be brave for our little princess But I can't promise I won't weep Watching her lay here with your picture Cuddling it softly sound asleep I tell her numerous stories about you And she tries to memorize them all But as the years go by it gets harder When your face isn't as clear to recall She knows her father is a hero And not afraid to announce to the world Oh my dear, how I see so much of you In the liveliness of our precious girl I know our parting won't last forever When we're together as a family in Heaven That picture is what keeps me going each day Holding to the thought I'll embrace you again We will live to make you proud, my love Though somedays are harder then most Perhaps fallen but never forgotten To your life we raise this toast
For many years... My life has been an embarrassment! Filled with hopelessness and discouragement! Many things I thought I had enjoyed... Have left in me... A large and empty void! Many nights, I would cry myself to sleep. Knowing the hole my life was in, was very, very deep. Then one day, I called out to God! I wasn't sure if he'd listen! My family, my old church, I was now missin'. My family prayed for me for so many years. I often brought them embarrassment and tears. God... I tried everything else... I want to come back to you! I need you now Jesus! I really do! Please come into my heart, and cleanse me within! Set me free from all addictions and sin! I know that you will never let go of my hand. My whole life, on your word, I shall now stand. Only you can satisfy the emptiness in my soul! I am now complete, satisfied, and made whole! By Jim Pemberton
I remember the days that we spent together in my pursuit to further my knowledge, you as my mentor and I as your pupil. Down through the years we have had more then just a teacher and pupil relationship, we became the very best of friends. I watched your hair turn grey and then you watched mine, sadly I received news today coming from afar that you have gone on your final journey and we shall never have those long academic discussions ever again. Such news that greeted me gave me such a heavy heart and tears in my eyes, for I know I shall never see my dear friend again. I will forever cherish the fond memories of the past years we had shared and our friendship and reminisce on all the good times for those will always be with me. You will always have a very special place in my heart, my mentor and my dear friend always. A friend that shared my life. Note: Farewell to Klaus Goebel, ING (Radio Engineer), Neu-Isenburg, Germany ~ may you rest in peace old friend. 4th July, 2012 (c)
Hither I stand, at crossroads, And then I gaze, at the yonder end- The vague horizon from where I began; And all that I may ever deem Is that- my days Have been a waken dream. Hither I stand, at the edge of my dream; Then I wonder, at the depth of my trance- An adventurous journey through the wondrous woods; An idyllic stroll through the vicissitudinous meadow; And from the final station as I depart, All that I can ever say, is that Perpetuation has been a rouge Of fleeting phases of my life. Suyash Saxena St. Stephen's College.
< Driving along in my automobile Seen homeless man holding sign will work for his meals Should I stop or should I just Go ! Should I give Or Should I just say hell No ! But what if that was me Crying out with such pitty Not knowing where to get next meal Three kids crying at worn out heels Cardboard boxes to call our home Dumpster diving for pieces of foam Think I'll give him a piece of my pot Opened wallet and gave him alot A nice twenty came on out Wiped out was his sadden pout Drove by an hour later Homeless camp wiped off roadmarks slatter Wonder where dirty Dan had now roamed Just hope he finds a better suitable home
He is sleeping in my bed unsuspecting, As I sneak out the back door again. I stalk across the dimly lit garden, Stricken with guilt, remorse, heart-piercing pain. Even during blissful moments in his arms, Your face flickers in the reflection in his eyes. I close mine only to see your face again, In the blackness, dark as night skies. How can I be happy with someone else, When thoughts of you haunt me, asleep or awake? How can I smile up at him, When its your features I'm trying to remake? Even though he makes me happy, Its nothing compared to the joy you brought me. I start the car and stare at the lucky charm, Remembering when you said, my happiness it will guarantee. I guess it never did work, Because now I'm sitting in this empty car, Wondering how things could have gone this wrong, When we had promised stay together upon a solitary star. I'm driving down the familiar road, Wishing an accident would take away this pain. Better a quick unfortunate incident, Than a slow death, plagued by guilt, going a little insane. Walking through the wrought iron gates, I cant help remembering the many times I've sneaked out. Each time I reach the graveled path, If you're worth the trouble, I doubt. But I cant help stalking out the house, You've become my obsession, my pilgrimage. Praying silently he never finds about you, For I'm sure he'll have me put in a cage. I feel the steady calm rising as I near you, Your voice is in the wind, the rustle of the leaves. I can hear my heart beat in my ears, I move to your headstone among the other graves. As usual I trace the engraved heart, Let a few tears slip and lie down on your cover. Wishing the block of marble between would disappear and so, For the last time I could see my sunshine, my one true lover. - Miliya Parveen
I picture Kashmir through lightened KL. News of another massacre darkens my eyes Winds are thirsty there. They continue to taste the young blood. I groom myself with exquisite things, Sipping ice tea in ac room, I comfort myself And Kashmir burns. Kashmir set ablaze I can smell the warm blood of beaten corpse Where from winds bought this smell. Somewhere Karbala reborn. Mosques are being slammed There windows stoned. And the black boots leave their footprints on Mimber Even God judges on evidence There is one Imaam left now; he hides her daughters in his shadow A blunt knife in his hands; soon he will sacrifice them to keep their innocence Kashmir is burning. Kashmir is bleeding And I write. Army jeep chases the tracks. To find the associated bodies They are alive now. Soon they will be dead From Patan to Sopor, And in narrow passages of nostalgic downtown Ghosts of curfew Haunt the houses for young souls. From the Kupwara cantonments, search lights chase emptiness Nothing is left now. Search lights can't see inside the graves A boy there went missing for two days. His father starts digging his grave. I put my earphones on and I close my eyes. I sleep While my Kashmir is ablaze "It's me poor farmer's son. Kupwara's charm, I feel no pain". I see him so alive in my dreams. He chants songs of Mahjoor from his burnt lips. My hands shiver. He has no finger nails. I see his smoke tanned skin. Same as that of Khayam's barbeques He stands at a distance from me. I can still smell kerosene "Tell my mother to let her heart become cold. Her heart will not bear my state. Tell my mother to let her eyes become blind. Her eyes will not withstand my sight." I follow him towards his tortured body. He tells me to follow the spilled blood. His blood has made its own Jhelum. I row on it. Until it gets lost in black boots The story will turn into legend. I find his body no more. On the streets silence prevails. Nobody has permission to wail. Sisters are beatifying coffins while brothers look for stones. For bullets there will be stones Kashmir is ablaze. She is wailing in grotesque tones. In Lal Ded hospital a new born cries: Father register me at cantonment then take me out Death is recruiting in dozens at a time. Tomorrow is curfew. Death has no curfew pass. How they want to identity you. Becomes your identity People burn up all you identity cards.
She tries to raise her right, hoping to win the good fight Praying that her daughter is safe and trying to feel right Never seems considered with the unimportance of everything If love were items, get a bigger table for what she brings Her heart and mind are full but inside seeming to disagree She never asks for anything more than days being pain free Life was not ever given and she does not expect it will be But everyone knows life is not meant to be lived in misery One day she will get to the bottom of what is plaguing her School and work are diversions in between times to recover She is open-heartedly candid and singular in a lot of ways Living her life under the sun looking for any sort of rays
Your strength was my weakness Your heart was like my home Your love was mine to keep But now I'm so alone I thought this was for the best Atleast that's what you said My heart just seems so broken Its almost like I'm dead I've gotten so lost and confused I feel kind of twisted and abused It's like my feelings are a letter left unread You would'nt take the time You said you didn't care But throughout it all I was still there I guess it's time to let go I guess it's something we will never know The words left unsaid will be kept with us until we're dead Heres my last goodbye I cannot stick around while you watch my heart die.
How scenic is phrenetic fantasy Which fulminates within the manic mind Yet hides inside synaptic revelry, Articulated, yes, but hard to find? The minor absolution one demands From higher born authority than self Is often found in foreign sounding lands Or back of boxes hiding on the shelf. The madness of the mad though sad is not Without a nod transcendent, in a way; Which forces Joyce to ponder over plot And not which punctuation to display. Now take your time and read Ulysses first, Before the Wake of Finnegan is shown; For Finnegan becomes eternal thirst Where cognitive resolve remains unknown. Now bitter battles still are fought with fire In hallowed halls of higher learning fame Where academic's fight against desire To elevate James Joyce's brilliant name. Finnegan's Wake can make a man go mad; Incomprehensible at best, some say. Such genius has a way of causing sad Reverberations all along the way. So read a Portrait of the Artist first Then add Ulysses if you have the need; But Finnegan's Wake - unquenchable thirst A book to blow your brain and make it bleed.
This is not my WORLD. You're my WORLD. You're my EVERYTHING. You're the FLOWERS, the GRASS, You're my THOUGHTS, You're my EVERYTHING. This is not my WORLD. You're my WORLD. So now..... be part of my..... LOVE. *please comment if you don't mind, i'd really like to know your thoughts (fav poem if you like)* -Angel4eva23
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
The braeþ of lyf -- I've Learned to fear Though, ta'en it was, so long sinsyne I've wroot my song of skreighs He tore the lyf out of me In sooth did she speke this to me - Cassandra was she to me Wistful - I am no bride to be Wistful - is this soliloquy of skreighs I cede to thee, deathly colleen Though remains - façades of humanity Angel kind - wicce of my welkin dreams Casted by the lote of she Ta'en the hollow Herefro way - ne'er! Caught with twain W'ie or swain Angel dearest so fair - love does not share Seemed a crux, when eath is lone I rose for thee - cede all of thy love to me Or was this not meant to be Eros's deceit So wistful - corpse bride I remain to be
So the leaves are falling now, and in color, are turning While young hearts, from summer, still burning Running through life, love's wings, oh how they're earning They are growing, and life's lessons, they're learning And so now a new day is dawning Where things won't be the same For in my heart, passion's spawning Here come the Winds of Change... Now something new awaits us Just across the summer horizon Taking over now, just fate's lust Oh how the Winds are Changin'... Loving more and more each and every day Where hearts are running free, and never slowing Will this feeling, just for awhile stay? The Winds of Change are blowing... Now the Winds of Change are storming From across the sparkling western sea New outlooks on life and love, they're forming In a couple years, where will love be? But what is it now that I'm feeling? It's something pretty strange My world is shaking now, and reeling Thanks to the Winds of Change
My dad passed away when I was nine That it didn't make me feel fine I have pictures of him Which always makes me grin I have some memories But not so many I miss him everyday and night Which I think of him with delight He was way to young For him to be gone It's been so long ago since he left us so dear I love him always and true Theres no other dad like him so true
Sweet little girl who snuck upon her mom without plans already in place to meet, you're a tiny hero, a bitter balm for the wound that left an empty car seat. A routine visit that ended in tears, and an operation for the next week. My sister's truth was a mother's worst fear, never to hold her babe, to stroke her cheek. After the grim appointment, her eyes glazed her heart rate jumped high, and her fever raised. Illness would have stolen her, but for fate. You had asked a favor at heaven's gate. Thank you for saving my sister, sweet one. I wish though, it didn't mean your life was done. 11/3/12
The pines, they sadly sway the same, softly whispering your name. Your voice echoing through the trees, with every warm subtle breeze. The oaks bear an open pallet to etch, years of love and laughter I sketch. Your scent airing amongst the leaves, in me you loved, always believed. The maples crying, telling the time, of past adornment, yours and mine. Your laughter fills the branches end, my heart is weeping, unable to mend. The evergreen frowns, wipes the tears, as the face of the mourning does appear. Your pride it resonates through the air, promoting support, you always cared. Grandpa I'll miss you every single day, I know why you left, why you couldn't stay. I know when I walk through the forest trail, the pines, oaks and maples, will tell our tale.
Through you I seek to know: What happened once below? You ferns of resistance, I see you Mixing it upward with A firm stance. (Such steely green weeds Do smirk indeed Above the empty path of horizon's eye, Blackened to nowhere). What, though, do I see in you? (A path lies vacant and wanting, A land once named upon a dream; A barren place now daunting, Neglected and unseen). Where is your truth? (Does it rest within your clumsy bud's dance With a tertiary sky, Or a raucous from your stem's windward need To lead)? Oh No. I do believe: It is your roots of defiance! To know Home in no shame; To forge through scarred soil with no blame! Such courage you have: To reap the shifting tar of fickle men, And safely hasten away From the notion of never again! (Thirty some years have stood and fell Yet… Your quiet presence lives to tell This hell, Once known, As Love's canal). Oh eager green, I wish you well.
We made an Angel for Jesus, although he was tiny and small, he's now in the army of Jesus, and helps to watch over us all. Our baby was born in October. A beautiful blue eyed boy. He appeared to be healthy and happy, he filled our hearts full of joy. We had him for only a short time. His life seemed so normal at first! Just before he was two, without warning, his health took a turn for the worst! Six months later, he went up to heaven, to explain it, we won't even try! For a while, we were groping for reasons, why someone, so young had to die? We kept on searching for answers, for what we could not understand? Why God, would let this thing happen, was it all just a part of His plan? All of a sudden it hit us, we knew just what God had in mind! He let us make Him an Angel, to help Him watch over mankind! Yes, we made an Angel for Jesus, although he was tiny and small, but he's big in the Army of Jesus, and helps to watch over us all! Dedicated to Angel Bobby (Robert William Taylor - 1968-1971)
Tears for fears. Tears throughout the years. Tears that fallen from my peers. A tear so sincere that will shred us from this dreadful fear. That someday we all will die. But have u gotten a slice of that pie. A pie so delicious u can almost taste. That u cant let it go to waste. Maybe next time I'll remember tooth paste.
On that cloudy weekend in June I hear a soft and graceful tune from the grey bird on the tree branch Singing sweet lullabies felt blessed in the moment My body tingles of joy at sight Gazing out through my open door, Letting thoughts fly free Releasing love out into the horizon Heart filled with emotion came over me Grey bird stood playing its tune for awhile and on the wings of letting go Then as the rain fell from the sky the grey bird flew away gracefully I blew a kiss to the clouds and utterd these simple words of I Love You father ( who's now in heaven ) and yet I hope to hear that grey bird sing again once more for me Farewell, love your son Poem contest for Debbie -referential
We told at a young age You can make it as long, as we get good grades If we behave; We told hard work and dedication prevails We not told what will happen if we fail A life time's Aim for Lusting for fortune and fame Just to have it, so abruptly taken away We not told have much life can strain Drain every single bit of life away Have our dreams crushed to a size of a dusty grain Have our wounds cut openly, so the world can see our bloody mistakes Emotionally and physically scared But those scars Make you the person who you are For them critics to tell you, they don't like your art Its like having a rusty dagger put through your heart Your dreams and self believe torn apart To get right back up and march On regardless of your past Gives you heart So dream bigger Don't be afraid to look at yourself in the mirror Get the courage to not be a quitter And stop yourself feeling bitter Through literature I paint them the picture I painted my own Self portrait I portrait-ed me as I see myself, a distraught face glum misfortune fate but looking back in mirror is a gorgeous face You got Self esteem problems your not being honest Don't listen to your sub conscience Fear is what kills dreams, just think positive Don't listen to these critics there talking nonsense I've taken loses I've taken being at the bottom I've promise To myself to never doubt myself by there comment In the hope one day they pay homage To the pain of my voyage... But the chilling truth critics only start hearing you the moment death is nearing you.
so much pain Lord why did you have to take Dwayne I dont mean to question your judgement but I just miss my cousin in hindsight I can see that we was living wrong but I dont think the cure was two bullets in his lungs at the funeral while they quote proverbs and Psalms I'm holding on his moms arm trying to keep her calm she crying my sons another homocide victim if that bullet would have knicked him it would have gotten our attention
A girl whom he'd forgotten At his door, showed up the other day The one he'd always wanted Just knew not what to say The boy she longed to hold She caught his eyes once again Of her love, to him, she never told But this time, all her love, she will send Once in a lifetime, and not one time more Fate takes hold, luck is lent From out of the blue, a miracle occurs Hearts reunite, Together Again She greets him with a smile A sparkle in her eyes For his love, she'd run for miles To try this thing called love, just one time Gazing at her beauty, he feels her in heart Remembering those nights, with her, in his dreams And how he felt at this whole love's start Where they'd be one forever, to him, oh how it seemed Well this girl's name was Katie, and his Steve And oh how tears were shed, by them both, when they were forced to leave But in the past that was, so now he holds her hand Two angels together, forever they'll stand Once in a lifetime, and not one time more Fate takes hold, luck is lent From out of the blue, a miracle occurs Hearts reunite, Together Again An old couple now, a lifetime of love They've conquered all, risen together, above Together, all the years, oh how they've spent And to each other, all their love they have sent Feeling each others hearts beating every morning Through all the decades, all the happy years Steve's heart though, one of these days, stopped without warning And Katie's wrinkled face, moistened with tears How could Katie live now, without her beloved by her side Knowing that beside her, his heart slowly died? She dreams every night now, just as he did before, of heaven Where they'll be Together Again Once in a lifetime, and not one time more Fate takes hold, luck is lent From out of the blue, a miracle occurs Hearts reunite, Together Again

It was right there, right past our grasps The playoffs gone just that fast The last year, it was our final chance We went hard, but it seems we never had a chance Tears leave eyes as we undress Removing our pads to make the burden less The coach comes in and his eyes are red Said he was proud of us, we worked until our hearts bled I just watched, a stoic face and a stoned heart I showed no emotions but i felt the loss I embraced the other seniors in my turn With dry eyes to soothe the burn The juniors watched us, not quite understanding But they felt it, the pain we was withstanding Leaving the locker room, we embraced the ones we loved Eyed blank as they tried to wipe away the blood What's past is past, there's nothing we can do Its just a game, a sport said a few But when you put that much effort and pain in And you lose, its hard.. so hard not to be blue
Another day, another beginning, I begin the morning chanting, Hoping that repeating my wish, It would come true. I sit at the sun-bathed breakfast table, Remembering the times you sat across with a grumble. The other times when you would put yours arms around me, As I set the morning spread. I walk into our memories-filled bedroom, I remember as I put on your favourite perfume, The first time you carried me across the threshold, We were so in love, the newly-wed couple. But I also remember the shadowed memories, When you would hit me disregarding my pleas. The times you would turn away in bed, Refusing to speak to me, pretending to be a statue. I dress in your favourite colours, And take in a bit of one of your liqueurs. Hoping it will give me the strength I need, To face you, my husband, my weakness, the love of my life. I walk out, closing the door behind me, Wondering in what mood will you be, I think of the times you'd say you're sorry, The times you'd say you love me. Times when you'd reach out and touch my cheek, You'd say you miss me, that you're growing weak. You want to come back home, You'd say you're ready that you're okay. I feel my eyes tear up as I think of the worse, Times when you'd scream yourself hoarse, When you'd pull my hair and tell me to get out, Ending up in me running out crying. Yet I come back every day, For the better days I pray. Sometimes we would sit staring into each others eyes, Other times you would act like you don't know me. But I cant help coming back to you, Returning to the pain no matter what you do. Sometimes I'm sure this is true love, Other times i hate you for what you've done to me. On some bad days I swear I'm never coming back, The days when you hit me blue and black. On good days I swear I'll never leave you, The days you whisper sweet things and hold me tight. Nevertheless i come every day, Hoping everything will soon be okay. The nurses stare in wonder, they don't understand, This mad love in the psychiatric ward. - Miliya Parveen
I'm naked I'm numb I'm stupid I'm staying This isn't love. You use me. When you get home from the club or wherever you've been late at night, You're clumsy with your hands. Clothing seems too hard to get off. And if Cupid's got a gun Then he's shooting But I can't leave. No matter what happens, it's too painful to go. Lights black Heads bang You're my drug We live it We're too uncomfortable with the lights on. I don't want to see your face- Slurred, clueless. Angry. You don't want to see mine- Helpless, confused. Depressed. You're drunk You need it Real love, I'll give it Everything is hazy to you. I bet you can't feel. But I'll love you anyways. I always have. So we're bound to linger on We drink the fatal drop And love until we bleed Then fall apart in parts This has gone on forever, to me. I'll try to be like you, To see what it feels like. I drink the last bottle of vodka And hold onto you. You've wasted your times On my heart, you've burned And if bridges gotta fall Then you'll fall, too Maybe this is the part of life That people told me about It doesn't mean anything It hurts you. You grow so attached that when one piece collapses You do too. Doors slam Lights black You're gone Come back You leave when the ordeal is over Because you couldn't really care less when you're sober You don't have a reason anymore Stay gone Stay clean I need you To need me I want you to be happy To be the way you were before. But I think without you, Even though I only see you late at night, I would be destroyed. So we're bound to linger on We drink the fatal drop Then love until we bleed Then fall apart in parts I'm getting up to leave The keys are for you Now we're bound to linger on We drink the fatal drop Then love until we bleed Then fall apart in parts But I'll come back soon I'll come back
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…………
A family had a wedding... The brother wasn't invited. The fact they didn't want him,.. Was already decided! When asked why his name had been "omitted." It was because of past wrongs he had committed. The words spoken, one could hardly believe it! Any kind of forgiveness? They didn't receive it! How many times are loved ones not invited to "family occasions." Often times, families listen to "outside persuasions." Someone does something, that may not be liked. Then they're often told to "go take a hike! No wonder why many families battle one another! They have failed to truly love each other! As we continue to see families drift apart. This often leads to a wounded and broken heart! Christ gave us his best! When we were at our lowest! A life of mercy and forgiveness… He wants to show us! If we can't treat one another as Christ commands… Then HIS way of family living…. We'll never understand! By Jim Pemberton
Recession made Christmas harder than ever before Family's splitting – money the core Dad's leaving to live on the street So that young hungry mouths are able to eat That some extra cash might be in the house and children might learn what Christmas is about? But without Dad gone, roof would be lost for the bills are much higher – we can't meet the cost No longer can the average family budget 2009, jobs lost, even working struggle to afford it Commercialism needs to stop building hopes and dreams Childern don't understand you are busting at the seams Disappointment reigns as kids outside taunt and tease No longer we fit in we're all on our knees Sinking. Even love has fallen apart We don't want this Christmas just haven't the heart! Expectation lower, depressions set in Politicians not helping the hole we're all in Instead raising taxes they'll crucify more and this miserable life could be at your door Will someone tell them that family should be together sharing love, life, hopes dreams whatever they weather
I don't want freedom. Forgive me for sounding paranoid or crazy. But this man used me. After knowing my history of pain. Now I see why people kill the victims and themselves. Doing away with all evil its emancipation. At my wits end. Where sanity has eaten away my brains. Where my soul has no resting place. And tears are like acid. That burns through my cheeks. Pardon my insanity. For I have fallen too many times. Where getting up is just powerless. My heart is caged. All the impact and friction it took, For years. And still it beats. Keeping me alive to face another brutal blow. Pain so severe. No medicine or words of encouragement Can put me at peace. Love is inadmissible here. For I am deceased . 01/17/13
You take life from the deserving, Strip strong women bare; Tear a hole inside us, Til we fear what might be there; The lives you take are precious, Though you discard them without thought, Regardless of who they were, You leave them all to rot; You make us fear our bodies, That which we should be proud; Brilliant and beautiful women, You leave off feeling cowed; The disease you spread destroys us, Cuts out our hearts and souls, But the worse thing that you could do, Is leave us feeling un-whole… Tirzah Conway ~To Christina, she fell while fighting the Cancer battle~
I have the evil of you Caught in my hands, entangled Like the arabesques of Eden's vines Just like paradise, but why should shame remain Singeing like immolation of Peter's Inferno These reddish-purple chains convolute myself as the grapples shoot out from the clouds both below, above me The self-lovelust propelling You did this - these plagues You drag me down - to your cage Cadaver Vampire - I am your slave
He gently creeps into her room to rest tenderly near her side while thoughts of melancholy zoom in of his once vibrant bride she's been there for him so many, many years he sniffles~and tries to hide the sorrow and the tears she has been injured and hurt but has lost the fight she will not make it through the night she will be in paradise by tomorrow's day he reaches to sniff her best skirt holds it tight~ it smells of her perfume he drags over to the vanity to spray her familiar scent around the room he cradles her head within his arm then musters an adoring smile as he whispers in her ear, "Time travels fast, and I will see you in a while, my dear" He provides her warmth by stroking her hair he wants to capture this image of her there he wants this moment painted on the wall so that he can always,always recall how peaceful she seemed while adrift somewhere.

"What If... You Lost Everything?" What if your "luck has all run out?" "No one listens" no matter how loud you shout. What if your life has come to "a dead end road." You've lost everything... Even your car's been towed. What if all you have "suddenly disappeared." As the storms of life have "appeared." What if you got on your knees in prayer. Knowing there's a God who really does care. What if you gave Jesus complete control. Giving him your life, heart and eternal soul. What if Jesus gently wiped away your tears. And his peace calmed all anxiety and fears. What if you realized at this moment in time. Jesus is worth more than a large gold mine. What if he restored that you've lost & all that's been tekan. With him on board... You're never forsaken! An abundant life is that he promised to give. And he will enrich your life each day that you live! By JIm Pemberton
You make me feel so complete You brought me up to my feet You make me experience cloud seven You brought me to your heaven Your words implant seeds of growth Your eyes, an undying oath You quench me with serpentine poetry You gave in to gravity You melted my heart of ice I'm your living sacrifice You watched over me with glistening eyes Your warmth never screams goodbyes
I have a friend His name is Tom He's usually sad And cries at home Nobody gives him Kiss or a hug His mother calls him Stupid and bug She calls him nobody She calls him a pest What more to say I rest my case His dad is busy Watching TV Tom has no friends Only has me There is a problem This is not fair I just can't speak I'm Teddy Bear This poem is a tribute to all children in abusive situation.
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 visit me here though they think me dead They all think me a long time gone The mausoleum is quiet, with only a dark shadow Creeping upon its ancient walls, and thats of my own The heavy door seems to creek all of sudden I think Outside I hear the sounds of what seems like footsteps I open that very old secret door which leads to my rest And with a heavy heart consumed by this fire, I prepare for the kill But then, outside, there is no one, no one is there No one out there now to steal from me this time in here Outside now I catch only the furtive and dark shadows As I hear the lonesome cry of a howling wolf or hurting bird I dart quickly another look again to my ancestral and cold coffin My fateful resting place is one more time again safe No friend nor foe to release me to free me tonight from my woes And from all of my black and torturous betraying thoughts I, Barnabas Collins, I stand here in all this darkness alone As I close my weary eyes for another moment and rolling time Then again I hear the wind moaning and hear the wind weeping The dogs are howling and my wounded heart abates in the wind They're my only companions in my endless and perpectual sorrow.

I didn't know you I never really talked to you But you created my sister You brought her to my family You were trying to be better You were trying to be better That's what hurts me the most That I didn't know you That I never really talked to you But you were trying And you are missed I thank you for being you For doing everything you did Even the mistakes Because you passed something on You made an impact My cousin you were My family you will always be I didn't know you We fought the last time I ever talked to you Then you were gone So young So sudden But I think of you and smile Because you were a good person You were someone to be missed I'm just sorry That I don't really have memories to look back at But I will always look back at you and smile Because I did know you We were family My cousin And the only memories I need is your face Your smile And I will always remember that And you are missed You were loved YOU ARE LOVED * RIP to my cousin that passed away 2 years ago. We miss you*
To the liers who were Great artists, manipulators, Perfect friends and honest lovers... To the liers who were Talkative and silent, Kind and sweet, Walking out many miles Pretending they carried Love and trust... To the liers I speak. You are there still believing In your goodness, and you are proud Of yourselves. But how sweet and true do you Look before the God's eyes? Have you ever thought about?
Sometimes I sit and ponder what it may be like to have parents, not always looking for a petty fight the love you feel, always being there for you day o' night I wake up fighting a constant battle, I feel like I am in a circus having to jump through hoops my parents hold to earn their admiration and approval Earning their gold star for the day I was a rebel since day one not trying to conform dancing to the beat of a different drummer Wishing to be accepted for who I want to be and how I seek to spend my hours nothing I ever do, seems to be good enough They talk about "emotional deposits" i.e. spending time with them but they spend too much time picking and proving reacting wrong, saying ignorant assumptions they push me away, each day 'further and further I go as soon as I make enough money I'm gone They act as if my artistic mind couldn't make money like my dreams are distant relatives of which I will never meet but I strive to prove them wrong Its bad enough being one person versus the world but when the army you fight is led by your family, your blood it's twice as hard to get up in the morning, when the suns rays dance on my closed eyelids I try my best to be the kind of person I want to be despite their efforts to kill off my individualistic soul I have given up trying to belong to which I was born unto I'm simply playing the game Hoping to win, one day the chance to be myself as I feel emulates me, and regardless have a proud Mommy and Daddy I do pray, I shall be free to be Heather Rose Marie
Who are what can fill your life's "empty void?" In spite of the many things that you have "enjoyed." Drugs… Sex… Money… Are you concerned? Has your life been one that's taken "the wrong turn?" There's many choices to make. I'm fooling you not! But there's a godly principle that must be taught! The void we have. Only the presence of God can fulfill! Bringing you true love, is God's purpose and will! Won't you take a moment with the king of kings? And allow him to take control of everything? Jesus will never disappointed you! Not now or ever! He wants to be your friend! Today and forever! The God of this world and universe, wants to come in! A Brand new way of living… Is waiting to BEGIN! By Jim Pemberton
I'm about to call it quits. One more f*cking Moron and I'll be sick. I let you walk all over me not once not twice…. I lost count. Now I'm labeled conspicuous Because I attract all the d*cks. wasn't it you who said you'll stick around through Thick and thin? Now when the tough get going you hide like a b*tch! How many more "demons" do I have to wave through Let me go. Set me free. I don't wanna be apart of you and your evil. I'm not asking to live like Mario and Peach. But enough is enough I'm tired of the blows. I bent over backwards to save your as* And in the end you put me last. Who were the one who carried you when you were "weak" Broke bread with you so to speak. I was your bank when you couldn't stand on your own damn feet. So I'm walking away with my head held high. They will be no more cries. No more tears run down these cheeks. Get behind me mother f*cker. You are beneath my cleats! 12/02/12
What Do We Expect, As We Seek to Remove God? As so many people are seeking God's removal… It's like anything from him, we've given a refusal! Many have tried to ban just the reading of his word! There's so much truth, just waiting to be heard! Many anti-God societies have quickly formed! Even the ten commandments, are often scorned! We've built large cities, many schools, and homes! But when it comes to God, we've often left him alone! One can try their best to push God back in the corner! But if you do, things in your life will get "warmer!" The pleasures and truth you seek, will come to an end! And then eternity without God, will just begin! You'll wish you chose to live for God, that eventful day! You'll wish that you took the time to study and pray! It's the word of God that you need to study and read! God knows all about you! And knows your needs! He deserves all of your praise and full attention! We need to seek him, for much needed direction! Please come dear Lord, and cleanse us within! May we humbly confess our faults and sins! We need YOU much more, than words can say! Please be the God we serve! May we start TODAY! By Jim Pemberton
Water In My Eyes It's hard to take off, when you're left grounded. Something lost I can't find it. I can't see my way anymore, I need a guide "Hard to see with water in your eyes" A feeling that comes over you, it comes and goes Often now putting me to my knees, a thirst for knowledge has grown. Interpretations given to me, I want to fly but I'm stuck on the ground is what I realized. I can't see my way anymore, I need a guide "Hard to see with water in your eyes" You carry those you lost and offer you in their place, all you have are the memories a heart ache, a still picture of their face. Quest for knowledge you have shown, you can only save yourself when it's time to kneel at the thrown. Interpretations given to me, still unable to fly I can't see my way anymore, I need a guide "Hard to see with water in your eyes" Arms out reached in front of me, waiting for a touch back to assist and help guide me, I know your there even in the open air, as the breeze passes by pushing out the water in my eye. Looking to the sky before it drips drops and it freezes. As u notice only your sign the one only you can see. If you found it it's meant for you to continue to believe. Before you know it you're looking up into the sky. You see clearly through a dry eye. No more needs God has heard you and now he will guide you. Walking a set path try to live a life right. God will always give you your way of sight. Keeping faith is all for just such a reason. It's nice to see through all life's seasons. But almost daily it gets blurry and things change size. "Hard to see with water in your eyes" By Paul J Williams Sr
Written by D. W. Breidenthal You take my breath away I wanna stay in this entrancing paradise I want all of the negativity to fade away The darkness isn't my property…I despise Living a life that's filled with misperception and disaster I would love to live in the ocean's ecstasy That would be spectacular if we can abide in the sparkly sea This eccentric dilemma makes your angelic features too unclear It chills me to the bone… My heart pounds with hope and fear… when will peace draw near This flawless wish remains unknown The night's approaching…seek shelter and light Painstaking regrets – I can't back away from gravity's pull Hand me the rope and don't bestow your burdens upon my soul Sift away the misfortune and allow me to put up with the fight Help me fulfill my flawless wish And I'll strip away your anguish You're a burning candle I raise my head up from the mud I step forward with courage that I couldn't handle On my own, but you stripped away the agony Watch us grow and sprout as one flower bud! You took my heart to a wonderful place I wanna desert this decaying body of mine and seek you in splendid light You forgave me for my wrongs…you thrilled me with praise I wanna embrace the dawn's incredible, appealing light... Sweeping away the deploring night It soothes my sensitive heart…dismissing my vexing misery I have the urge to repaint the breathtaking memories I've spent with you Will it scratch away the sorrow? I have to search for shelter and burn away our calamity – slaying us with rue Will my flawless wish store hope for tomorrow?
"He's Our Joy" He talks funny But his disposition is sunny Even though his tongue is too long He's not a loss Just because his eyes are crossed He's never going to earn a degree To his parents he'll always cleave He may have Downs But he's a joy to have around The public might shame him But they don't see what makes us love him He's our precious joy Our very own Mongoloid.
Don't you know Deirdre's gone? Don't you know Deirdre's gone? I can sence her embrace that feels like Tragedy A heart to have, slipped beneath the waves The dark pulse now beckons us closer How many days will this passion bleed away? We will be the ones left to blame Beware we've become their prey They say you're addicted to your pain A lifeless cold barren soul left to die in the rain A whisper too close to the edge A call from the dark Brings out a saving spark An Exodus from her Pain Her Life Spent breathing in Shame A Shadow Call breaks the Silence Am I the one to blame? Don't you know Deirdre's gone? Don't you know Deirdre never said wrong? Don't you know Deirdre's gone? "My Decadence was just for you Though you'd never care what I've been through Enter the world were empathy is clandestine A world created by you, just for me What's Lying in my heart is why You want to through the stone" I call your name towards nightfall's reign But they take you so far away A dark angel so divine Cursed by Eden's heart I will avenge every tear An Exodus from her Pain Her Life Spent breathing in Shame A Shadow Call breaks the Silence Am I the one to blame? Don't you know Deirdre's gone? Don't you know Deirdre never said wrong? Don't you know Deirdre's gone? Don't you know Deirdre's gone? Don't you know Deirdre's gone?
I Knew Someone Who Was Ready to "End It All!" I knew of someone who just wanted "to end it." Giving up on life, and did not want to "defend it." It was a heart wrenching and difficult situation. He said what he wanted to, with no explanation! I could see his face and the sad look in his eyes! What he was going to do next, was anyone's surprise. He turned to drugs and encountered addictions. With this brought much disease and afflictions! He gave up on the wonderful family that was given. And turned to a pretty wild and crazy way of livin'! I told him about a God who loves him very deeply. As he listened, he began to grow restless and weary. I reached for his hand and began to pray for God's power! It was a miracle! The blood of Jesus changed him that hour! The spirit of God brought healing and hope to his body! He was so excited! He rushed out to tell everybody! The "end" that he wanted, seemed to just fade away! For the son of the living God, changed him this day! The glory of God, and the power of Jesus' resurrection… Changed him! And got him going in a NEW direction! He's so thankful for the blood of Christ' atonement! And is a different person now, because of that moment! This same Jesus loves and can do the same for YOU! Through the problems of life… He will see you through! By Jim Pemberton
Mistakes where made and fingers was pointed Falling from the trees Hearts was crushed and time was lost Blowing away with the breeze Words being said that slowed the time In its depth we drowned Our smile crosses its fingers Hiding our emotions frown Long forgotten fables and tales of dreams Spoke till I sleep inside Potions of sounds musical notes Brewing what I hide Chattering leaves confide our secrets Their season pigment our lips Entwined together forever Drinking in sips Clashes of tides fill our cup Running over with forever Fairy tells crashing letting go Of what we believed to be forever
"No." She whispered before drowning into her sorrows. Her life had been a simple happy one. There were no pains and no troubles. Life was life and people were people. Life was simple. and life was all about tomorrows. Life didn't know about sorrows. Her sorrows. Those same sorrows that she drowned in never existed. They were never there, but where? First to be sad in the naive town of joy. Sorrow became contagious and what was known as happiness no longer was there. It was non-exististent. A meager thought and a blessed memory. She tried and tried. She failed and failed. Life was no longer hers. For Pain was her only possession. Her curse. She lived and she died. Yet, her legacy was passed on. Never was it gone. "No." She whispered before drowning in her sorrows, "Save them."
HUMAN BEINGS MAN...don't tell me it was necessary! Couple hundred thousand people obliterated in a few seconds is beyond the realms of scary. Truman you musta' been sniffin' glue man...you know you didn't need to do it. I can hear ya' today giving the A-ok to the Enola Gay, "Kill 'em all...men screw it!" And not only did you pull it once, but you saw the need to do it twice. It wasn't like the "Little Boy" you deployed landed in a field of rice No sir, ya' went and sent the "Fat Man" to devastate the city of Nagasaki even faster! Just three days after the blaze reeking disaster plaster casting Hiroshima in disaster! Now before ya' good old boys start raisin' yir' voice about December Seven! Ramblin' off at the mouth racist claims and who is or isn't gonna be in heaven. Half a century to think about whether or not two wrongs makes a right. and ya' still can't see the sin in bringin' NUKES instead puttin' two dukes up in the fight? Are you kidding me? Someone please tell me the rationale in evaporating innocent women and babies. when the question arises of taking harmless family's lives....the answer is NO...no IFS, ANDS, or MAYBES!
Untitled 5 (My Uncle: Good Morning, Apocalypse Now) My uncle doesn't speak much about Vietnam or the stuff he witnessed when he was just a boy. See, he likes to drive the back roads fast and honk at random cars that pass. His friendly gestures always lead to how he grew up compared to kids now. Jumping and racing trains on the tracks became dodging bullets and carrying his buddy on his back. The marshes and dirt valleys here became the forests and trenches of the military frontier. Last year, my sister donned his jacket a fatigued fatigue that hung in his closet. In color and memory darkened, kept out of sight for fear it would harken the PTSD he's stuggled to avoid. He saw his brothers, young like him to Vietnam succumb while on American soil and he promised he would never speak, for fear his stomach would coil, when remembering rice - a dish he no longer enjoys. And there's no orange on his clothes to remind him of the agent that destroyed. When he speaks a calm "Good morning", I wonder if he's thinking of Vietnam or if he knows that I admire his strength and bravery and how he continually fights against the "Apocalypse Now".
When my heart is caving in and I feel all alone, I wake up in the morning so far away from home. When my soul is crying out and I feel like I'm lost, I'll hold my head up proud so I will pay the cost. So life won't pass me by, I'll live while I can. Make the best of days gone by, wish I could hold in my hands, my magnolias crying in the rain. Wish I could catch the drops that fall. Instead I remain so far away from home. When I'm crying out for life, I'll hold my dreams I have in store. Even though it seems I can't get my foot in the door. And though I'll pay the price, because I've sacrificed. Soon I'll return again one day, under Louisiana blue sky, just so I could hold my, magnolias crying in the rain. Wish I could catch the drops that fall, but instead I remain far away from home. You gave me your hand to hold. You kept me warm when I was cold. So when my dreams unfold, I'll be back to hold, my magnolias crying in the rain, so I can catch the drops that fall, and no longer remain, so far away from home.
It's time. The two times before Were tests To see if she could Identify the moment When she should leave. It's time. The words Buzzed in her head Over and over As she tucked the last items In the bag she had prepard. A bag similar to the one An expectant mother would have ready, But she would never Need that particular bag, He made sure of that. It's time. It was 10am, He had been gone The better part of three hours. The longest three hours of her life. She waited patiently, Just in case he came home For some forgotten tool or document. It's time. She slipped out the back door And scaled two neighbours' fences Before entering the street. With her hat pulled down low She made her way to the bus station. It was time to leave town. It's time. She bought a ticket to California, Los Angeles to be specific. She would become a lost angel In the city of angels. It's time. As she waited for the bus, She heard a car shrieking To a stop outside. She shrank into her seat, But it was for nought, As cruel hands Pulled her from her seat. It's time. First came a slap, Then another, And by the time the ticket agent Came out to pull him away from her He was punching her. It's time. He shrugged off the agent And ran to her, But by that time She had pulled out Her grandpappy's Smith & Wesson, And with shaking hands She lodged a bullet In his heart. It's time. The gun was a present From her momma, And from the day she got it She practiced on old toys Behind the abandoned toy factory. She practice until it was time. Today, the time came And it tuly was time. It's time For her abusive husband to die.
Das Ein Männlein The silent echo reflects through the lodge, Ein Männlein Steht im Wlade ganz Still und Stum… Repeating itself in the young boys head. He is not yet a man, but stands proud enough to be, Coming back here to relieve himself of his past. Crying out as he reaches the splintering and tilted door. The memories of the cold, the blistering cold overpower him. He spends time collecting himself as the moon moves across the sky. He had been here with his family- Says the toppled dining room table. He also wasn't the only child in the lodge- Says the curled up paper dolls in the fireplace. There was music- Ein Männlein Steht im Wlade ganz Still und Stumm… Echoes the toppled ivory-keyed piano in the corner. There was a war, as the Russian Graffiti on the wall complains. The crashed bomber-plane with the seat full of bones assures that fact. He came back to the rotting lodge in the forest Back to the overgrown pile of shambles to find something As he digs he picks objects out of the rubble, a boar's head, jewelry, dog-tags, And finally the thing he seemed to have been searching for. A baby's bathtub, with a scrolled handle, stares at him through the dust. What happened to the other child? She still has all of her baby teeth in her sweet little baby head. She's been sitting in that bathtub ever since that horrible night. When she was boiled to death by hungry war criminals.
I never got to touch your face I hid a faded smile my 3 Angels were placed to comfort me a while I never got to feel you grow or become a rising star I pray that you will never know of this hidden scar I never said the word hello as I welcomed you to life the only word I was allowed was the saddest word goodbye I never got to see you grin or hear you laugh out loud I never got to tuck you in or watch you sleep so sound I never said the word hello as I welcomed you to life the only word I was allowed was the saddest word goodbye just as the years go by rain will come and go but ill always hold you inside i just wanted you to know I never said the word hello as I welcomed you to life the only word I was allowed was the saddest word goodbye
Crescent, Fraddle, gentle light fill's the moonlight as youre eyes glisten through mine. Filling every fulll glowing touch, in a darkened bay, You stare into my eyes, the question why passes youre mind once or twice. You're sitting there, drenched in what we shared, every memory, and love you cared. You were there to pick me up, and put me back in place, Ill never forget youre words of wisdom, and youre glowing bright face. Youre heart pumps at the race of suicidal thoughts in time, This feeling i cant let go, its such a crime. Its a long lasting chance to break free, and renew what we thought we could of had, this molment of loss, this colors checkerd plaid. So many patterns and runon's through this aftermath in an after glance that shines brighter then the stars, no matter where we are from pluto til mars. Ill travel to the highest peak, the highest mountain my lovve, from the hell's of low, and highest heaven above. Take into mind, that letting go willl not set us apart, but if you love somone you set them free, because you'll always be forever in my heart.
Does my face retrace the anger, of a once distant love affair? Do my curves exhaust a notion, that at one time we kindly cared? Yet, I still thrive. Does my smile rile your insides, and shadow a subtle act? Do my hips which sway in elegance, bestow this monstrous attack? Yet, I still thrive. Does my laughter force the cringe, grimaced upon your face? Do my fingers not gently guide you, to a once happy, exotic place? Yet, I still thrive. Does my spirit not depict beauty, of a once stunning shore? Do my lengthy legs not confine you, in perfect synchronization anymore? Yet, I still thrive. Does my sensuality no longer appease, the thirst once quenched within? Do my eyes announce the sadness, of forever living in sin? Yet, I still thrive. Does my lonely heart sob uncontrollably, noting a broken bond of hate? Do my tears not convey the purpose, of two lost souls with opposite fates? Yet, I still thrive.
I stuff my pockets with misery and contempt, overloading their contents, pleasure exempt. I fill the dark spaces with sadness and dread, overexerting the capacity, till all hope is dead. I shove bits of hatred, and pieces of despair, into tightly bound pockets, I callously wear. I force fists of fury, into perfect folds of misery, massive bulging indignation, that only I can see. I line its gruesome insides, with terror and pain, thrusting handfuls of vanity with bouts of shame. I lunge towards its innards, like a thrusting rocket; these dark grisly holes, inside miserable pockets.
Scanting, ranting, seething persona provides – the confinement and hatred inside you hide. Screaming, steaming, aggressive overtones – provide a key witness of a relationship unknown. Shivering, quivering, the innocent will crumble, to a raving lunatic with a malicious mad stumble. Convicted, addicted, to the same vindictive game, this romance conceived within lies and shame. Silently, violently, cursing the call of creation, vowing to avenge this marital bond castration. Pawing, gnawing, at an open bloody wound, strumming, and humming life's unforgiving tune.
I am what you call a hopeless romantic, But im also a lost lovers cause, my heart belongs to another Yet in my head a love triangle starts to form, the girl I love doesn't love me She holds the heart to another and mine caged to the floor, She isn't afraid to fight for what she wants, not even when it comes to leaving another man torn Trust me she's happy, as that boy holds her heart ever so close Seeing what I shouldn't I smile as I wear my blind fold, Blind to everything around, lifeless staring into air My train of thought running so fast, the second I stop you'll hear a crash Derailing my hope, for ever finding a love so pure & rare Wishing I could hold the hand of the lover who stole my flame, Wish I could change the last days in which we parted ways, Realizing now that we can never be the same Finally saying it out loud as tears run down my face You stole my happiness, as I walked away that day But it's because as of what you said I guessed I changed, Now every relationship has just be the same, No one can seem to bring back that flame, Because a love likes ours comes once in a lifetime Well at least it does to me, But I mean you're happy with who your with I mean I only wrote this as I heard exchanging "I love you" flow from each of your lips.
Days go past us, as do winds of season, But never the days and years That get stuck in some ear and age, That engulf us like mirages in a desert. One such mirage in my life is of my Dad, Always before me, waiting for me; Yet I never reach in time to be near; So near to me, yet so far away. Never did he forsake me, in life, Never for moment, never for a day; Always beside me in my hours of need — A dear friend, a true companion, a great dad. He suggested the best books to me, But never pushed them into my hands; A mere suggestion about the inputs — The next thing I know, I have my hands full. He sang tunes soothing, melodious, But never forced me to listen to any songs; A mere suggestion about the notes — My passion for music was born! His acquaintances, colleagues, all friends; Value of friends in life is priceless; A friend is a cool morning breeze, Surround life with friends, my list's endless. Never fear life's rollercoaster ride; No problem is without a solution: Life is too short to fret and fear; And so, I tried, yet fear engulfed me. He came back into my life in many forms, Beating death; guided me with many a face: As friends, notes of music, verses from books — He never left me and my life, my Dad.
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**
Young and innocent they went to school Expecting to learn and play Never in anyones wildest of dreams Did we expect that day For a rain of tears to shell them From one lost deep to sin But heavenly hosts came down for them Releasing them from him The devil he did have his day But God in end dost win For noubt will be lost but these young lives Will not be gone in vain The laws of the land will change in ways For it must not happen again Those who reign must stand on this Take stance and make a difference No one should be able to take a life With intent nor mindless innocence For even when with madmans mind You cannot be left to mingle How can you be able to walk in shop Purchase guns and not be liable Actions speak far louder than words And if we let just one slip through Without accounting for their sin It might well be me or you For on anyone these bullets Might be named to fall upon So make a difference – make a change Add your name – petition The whole wide world mourns in shame An Amnesty is long past needed Write your letters – use your vote Act now while it is fresh And pray for the souls of all those lost That each by the Lord be blessed Also for those who've lived through this That they might find a way To find the strength and courage To step out further each day
Her look that day, Should have told me everything she could not say. Unprepared, I stared. She walked away. As she tossed our ring, I felt the sting. If I'd known then How I feel today, I'd heal the abscess and my heart's decay, Before her affection left me there that day. JS Lambert
(chorus) Watch these eyes fill with tears I don't know where to go from here Everything is always the same Lonely nights filled with pain Why cant I rearrange Why does opening up feel so strange Is this what's meant to be, A life with only me I sit and watch down the hall, Silence waiting for your call, If I could just hear you say That you need me today Then everything would be ok, I cant make this go away. Ive done it again When will this end Where is my friend I needed you to stay. (chorus) Watch these eyes fill with tears I don't know where to go from here Everything is always the same Lonely nights filled with pain Why cant I rearrange Why does opening up feel so strange Is this what's meant to be, A life with only me You told me I was the one, Yet its over before it begun You took my heart and tore it apart Where the hell did this come from All the tears I cried From all your lies I cant make this go away I needed you to stay (chorus) Watch these eyes fill with tears I don't know where to go from here Everything is always the same Lonely nights filled with pain Why cant I rearrange Why does opening up feel so strange Is this what's meant to be, A life with only me
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.
Hopelessly lying, in a dying bed of depression, miserably crying, while trying your confession. Blackening walls, and halls of a fading youth, Gruesomely calls, of gnaws towards the truth. Fading beauty, so snooty to those content, wailing a duty, sooty, those content dissent. Towards a failing, unveiling of bloody torment, concealing the name of shame, not so innocent. So cheap, sinking deep, into a sea of emotion, I weep, at the reap of sowing our lost devotion. I shudder with stutter, at a marital decapitation, you utter, like no other, at a romantic prostration. A defile and vile odor is cast amongst the decay, I smile in denial, as those lost lover's betray. Sinking deeply within, our sins have been fed, doses of greed, they feed till all beauty is dead. Take cover in the pain, remain emotionally numb. Hide within the sin, wherein you succumb. Tread the waste, and taste the defeat, of a shattered, tattered passion down on Broken Heart Street.
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

I see my breathe. Night has fell upon a frost. Gods' chill lye now on my shoulders. Alone yet not. Silence now before the icey rain. Surrender as my nervous teeth chatter. For the warmth of a home is all that is desired. My empty haven. But,I am filled with a heart that is full. Want nor wait. Arms now cover me like a blanket. Gust of wind has carried your unwaivered heart. Candles lit a way to find what is left. Merely an image of what once was. Break down into a sob. Remains frozen solid as climate has taken its' vengence. I suffer no more,weak body. Now only in spirit. Shall I rest.
Can this ever stop The world is blacked by the lunar love All the tides have gone undone The seas beckon us with their rage Will they ever calm The mist covers our sight The storm comes Her eyes are the color of dyed blue With her raven hair and crimson lips She sleeps quietly waiting for the innocence of me But I've already put her in vain And tossed her aside I've already condoned my belovéd The desire was so much I couldn't face it In the eyes Forgetting the shame is just a Another winless game Take me away from this Take me away from the Lunar Love The moonbeams light up my pale face I don't want to be seen Banished from this world I'll ever be Take me away from this Take me away from the Lunar Love I cry but the sun cant hear Do I exist? This eclipse took over Now I'm left to face it all Left in the dark where can we go Lunar love is what we'll be Lunar love is what we have Fly away from the scene The tides are blind from the madness Even to the mountains they'll kiss The storm is too much The desire was so much I couldn't face it In the eyes Forgetting the shame is just a Another winless game Take me away from this Take me away from the Lunar Love Lunar love is what we'll be Lunar love is what we have The moonbeams light up my pale face I don't want to be seen Banished from this world I'll ever be Take me away from this Take me away from the Lunar Love The ghosts are tangled in my dreams They play with what was meant to be forgotten But I know there must be a away To find the closure But so lost are we So lost I've been Save yourself from the downfall How close are we to the edge This is what the rage has done This is what the sin has done The desire was so much I couldn't face it In the eyes Forgetting the shame is just a Another winless game Take me away from this Take me away from the Lunar Love The moonbeams light up my pale face I don't want to be seen Banished from this world I'll ever be Take me away from this Take me away from the Lunar Love Lunar love is what we'll be Lunar love is what we have Forgetting the shame is just a Another winless game
overwhelming thoughts with screams suffocating time as tears form the river of denial i drift deeper out of my mind grasping for air as i attempt to see what isn't there coveting words that cling onto my ability to care lacking self control i search for something, anything to grab scratching, biting, clawing my doorway to deaths cold slab songs that which i sing in memories of whispers and prayer beating to the seductive release of that which isn't fair i try and try to overcome this realities haunting sin i dig deeper and deeper throwing away my soul within twisting and turning seeping with silence sleeping and spinning weeping in violence learning to regret and never to forgive unable to accept it was me who lived
There's this one girl I love I'm really missing Hour by hour, and every second too Remembering nights of lakeside kissing But There's Nothing I Can Do She was everything to me A cool winter's breeze... A warm summer's shore... But oh how the time really flew When she'd come knocking on my door Now there's Nothing I Can Do And while the days continue drifting past My love for her still lasts So I'll send it everyday to my love, just for you Because there's really nothing more There's nothing else There's Nothing I Can Do
Another son is dead, until five he lived. For his long life at Shah-Hamdan he had threads tied "Shehij ninder yee nai. Gahas Kormakh Khudayas Hawale", his mother cries. No news can penetrate across the mountains. Satellites work here no more My Kashmir burns. And no one knows. An old woman with torn scarf sits besides fire. While feeding her neighbor's child She sighs. Is my son dead or alive? She silently cries. In Madrasa I hear children reciting Quran. A girl's come out dragging her feet. I remember her from somewhere. I remember her seeing naked. Oh! God she is the one who was raped. Nights have turned pitch black. My eyes are losing the habit of sight Midnight soldier's set another house ablaze. At least there is some sort of light. Many letters have been written to God. Postcards posted of those raped girl's But its curfew again. No post office deliver's the message again. Death comes from everywhere. Close your windows mother For bullet respects no womb. It turned Gulistans into tombs. From the plains the visitors come to visit their God's They are our only witnesses but hypocrites at heart. They say paradise is kaasmir. While my Kashmir is ablaze They testify against us. Is anybody witnessing this? No one at all Be witness to at least this. Open up your eyes my Lord! When paradise is painted with colors of hell, certainly divinity loses its grace In the news the reporter is beaten. Bamboo sticks are hungry for human blood. Let Kashmir go to hell. A new promise in their portfolio. Threads have given up at Dastegeer's place. Even they are horrified at our fate. In Maisuma boys are dragged by police. They close their dreams, end their screams In a police gypsy. Men shape into monsters when they are given right to anarchy. The gypsy drives them into the dark cantonments. They will remember this day Interrogation officer comes. After celebrating his son's birthday. The winds from the cantonments bring their news Burned tires around their necks. Burning stoves near their heads. The knife tearing up their flesh. And the boys cry, "We haven't batted yet. Cricket. We know nothing". Death wants children to be headlines Hunger has affected the heavens as well. Graves are full. No more space left. We need land of the plains. For our graves. In the ac car the bureaucrat goes. The mother's with search full eyes Ask about their sons they lost. They drink their tears And he sips champagne.
Even though i did not hear your voice tonight i'm still ahit, I will go on like this for ever, i wont go out without a fight. I'll fight till the end of this life to win your heart, All you have to do is tell me when to start. The music blarrin in my head phones at 1:52 AM and i'm lovin it, cause it helps me remember your gorgeous smile like it was meant to fit. Wanting to feel your touch and kisses all over me ignites the fire in me, Wanting to take you by your hand and run wild in a big sea. There aint much i can say to express myself but this will have to do for tonight, I think its just that i haven't reached height. You no I love you and that's all that matters or will ever matter to me, I will love you till i die, like I told you before, cant you see?
Don't forget to cross the Ts and dot your Is because if you don't do that they're just lines vertical on a page. Lets us forget about the imperfect words that make us cry the vertical lines, like jail bars hold us back. Stand up and out and roar like a lion! she is mine, I love her, but I am quiet, held back by the vertical lines the black oily jail bars, that keep my hear caged in everytime I cry and people don't listen the guard taps his nightstick upon the vertical bars, the imperfect feelings of pain and sadness feeling like this it bores me feeling like this makes me sick and I feel myself wanting to vomit and shake the nervous feeling of falling into a dark hole, so I sit behind these vertical lines, like cocaine lines, ready to snort up your nose, like cigarettes lined in a perfect and neat row, like empty wine and beer bottles littering around my feet. The vertical lines take me away from reality, close my already blinded eyes with a black blindfold. These jail bars cross my soul, chain my the ankles and wrists, and choking me, holding my head under water, I can't breath!!! Help me! These vertical bars hold me back in life, hold my emotions from coming out, to tell you how I feel for you! I no more want vertical lines, I want to be free. Drive horizontal roads that wined and turn around beautiful mountains too take a deep breathe and share the beauty to watch the horizontal horizon. Too sit on a beach shore and write till the sun goes down and the mermaids sings cheerful tunes that uplift my spirits and break the remaining vertical lines that bind and hold my heart in place. There is nothing beautiful in a straight line, let alone a vertical one. Horizontal, vertical all bad in their own ways, always trapping us, like jail bars or barbwire that streches across the open lands. Love has no lines, no boundaries, so why should I have lines that bind me together holding my head underwater, till a spark lights a powder keg and blows me sky high and I finally set myself free and roam the horizon for ever.
It burns and it stings. It hurts. More than drowning beneath the ice. More than remaining in a kindled flame She hits and I no longer cry. Why mother, why? It burned and it stung. The markings remained, returned, and were relived Looking, loving, and little known loathing were the known ways of living. Never was their pity for the child that cried Never was their relief for the child that tried You were that lovely bird that understood the complications of felicity Nothing looked the same in those dewy browns of yours. My everbeating would cry tears of joy. The others-they were yet to appear. Caring Mother, o' so fair You were that beautiful bird filled with care. The others came and were not alone. Their two suitors sat on the throne. Rampage and rage why did you come? I began to wither and wither slumping along. So very soon I- the child of fines- became a human raceme. The droops of the Lily of the Valley became the slumping of my heart. My lovely bird the enemy had taken you and the person you were is far from near. For that divine nature left its intricate self and you became irretrievable my big bird. All of your fairness died. With that went my pride. Mother, Mother what moved you so? Your intense spirt vanished only to supplement a monster. Mother, Monster and your tar filled lungs. How did I kill that liver that was so, so strong? The lesson of pain was one you came to learn. My darling bird why did you turn? My lovely bird and your big brown eyes I'll tell you once, but never twice. Pain is only a flower for it blooms and dies And a mistake can be killed as quickly as lice. You dear bird hurt me well. Though, haven't you heard? Weakness is a souls greatest strength. You brought me up, then you brought me down. You haved helped, hurt, and hindered my blazing spirit. A hero in my heart-I left you down in your deep black slumber. Escaping those terrible nights To go for the town of delights.
It hurts all the time This pain in me never stops I want to cry for you I want to scream for you I want to beg for you I want you to be here This cant be fair This cant be real But I smile and I laugh I get up every morning to go to work Throw on a happy face and make some jokes I come home and enjoy my day I have fun And I continue on But I'm so hurt I'm so lost Seeing you in there killed me I could never get the phone call out my head The screams from my mom The walk up there to see if it was true But most of all I wont forget you In the casket Touching your hand You were so cold You didn't belong there Seeing you go into the ground Seeing them fall apart Feeling my heart break into pieces When all I could do is scream I will never forget that day And every time I smile I want to cry Every time I laugh I want to cry Every time I think I want to cry Every breath I take takes a little bit out of me Because I want to cry I want this to not be real I want to had spend more time with you I want to hug you Laugh with you Tell you I love you That I was always there That I am still always here I am so broken But I continue on with life Because God took you and not me He wanted me here for a reason So ill continue on for You I will laugh And smile And pretend Anything to make it to the end To see you I miss you just isn't enough It doesn't mean enough What heals a broken heart? Time they say But time wont bring you back So my heart stays broken As I pretend to smile I miss you I miss you I miss you As I'm falling apart My mask then goes on RIP Bebo... 17 was to young
I stand, alone. Scratching for my truths, peeling away the veneer, I stand, alone, before this impregnable cliff so sheer. Cocooned in my solitary shell, wrenching a smile from a tear, I stand, alone, a little odd, and definitely quite queer. I stand, alone.
Three months is date Six months our hearts pulsate Ninth month is here If there isn't hate Then soon will be a year We're really to believe it to be fate? Smothering ourselves in this theory A concept based solely upon the idealistic "soulmate" By this, we incorrigibly infatuate Neglecting what's real Ignorantly becoming our own hostages Essentially an internal inmate Prisoners who fear Distrust And self mutilate We're sitting patiently as we wait And wait Just to wait Playing these games we're burdened to tolerate Causing confusion Creating heartache But in the end I'm betting all that I've got Betting on the most evident of facts As I'll always be the first to call... Checkmate
Two hearts beat, now beating faster; beating until they're one Two souls breathe, now breathing deeper; breathing until they're done Two lovers see forever, and forever is where they run One child comes home tomorrow for life has just begun Even when the rainbow's glowing, the skies can seem so gray Even when the wind's not blowing, the tides can turn your way And when the water's raging, beneath skies that seem so blue It's just your body aging, and it has nothing to do with you So now when our God comes calling, I'll hold your hand and stroke your hair Yes, as snowflakes start falling, I will look for you everywhere And Mother, as you start flying, remember as you rise above Marlene, you are not dying, but finding everlasting love One child goes home tomorrow to embrace the Father and the Son One child who knows no sorrow, for life has just begun
[Verse 1] My blood is ice inside your veins Crawling underneath my skin The price we pay to earn that name The battle that we never win Falling faster far below Further into darkest depths The kiss of death that you bestow The poison that is on your…lips [Chorus] Sweet seduction Drug addiction Words that only he can mend Sweet seduction My affliction Rise to only meet the end [Verse 2-change] Your thoughts they plant a grave in me Like missiles shooting through the skies The pain you watch but never see Crystals falling from my eyes Your words they feel like razor blades Your touch like acid on the skin Your love this agonizing pain The battle that I'll never…win [Chorus] [Breakthrough] Swallowed up by Sounds of screaming Asking questions Without meaning Fall away… FADE AWAY!!!! [Chorus] Sweet seduction Drug addiction Words that only he can mend Your destruction My affliction Rise to only meet the end The end…
Here I am, restless in my bed again. Wondering if I ever cross your busy mind. Wondering if the sight of your face will ever light up my eyes again. I am afraid of losing you. Afraid that I will never touch you again. I miss the memories we made. How we made love everyday. How every word you tell me comforts even the deepest fears I have. I love you. And because I love you I will justify how devoted I am to you. Regardless of what happened, I will never give up on you. I will never quit on the promise my love made to you. Your love for me I could never repay, And someday you will see that we were meant to be together. We were meant to get married and have kids. We were meant to live our lives with nothing but love to fall back on. I love you. And because I love you, here I am. Restless in my bed again. Wondering if I ever cross your busy mind. Wondering how a perfect love can go wrong. But I will never give up because I am in love. I may falter, but I will never fail. I am too persistent to fail on you. You are my driving force, the reason I do my best. But without you, I am lost. I cannot go on. So I ask myself, Why am I here restless in my bed again. Wondering if I ever cross your busy mind. And today I swear this vow. I am not an angel but I am true. I will always love you.
Lost in a moment of waiting patiently wasting away Eventually, is my motto and maybe is where I reside Another sunrise, another sunset I'm still here twiddling thumbs Any day now is my hotel room passing the time, is my specialty Here I am again dillydallying bidding away all my time I'm another second closer I know it's comming so so soon There is no time to waste That's what I've heard before, but to me I find time plentiful and so I toss it aside carelessly lost in a moment of waiting I'm still here twiddling tumbs I'm yet another second closer There is plenty of time to waste.
Talk behind my back, Discuss my weakness, Prove them all that I'm the worst but I'm still standing. I don't mind what You say to them. Tell them the secrets that I shared with you being trapped Within naivety. But I'm so glad I did. I destroyed my weakness, Transformed myself for now, Became indifferent. Keep being dishonest When you talk to them, Represent your lies that You prepared. I know how good it feels. You know I'm not denying Because you are ugly too.
Tears that twinkle and glitter Flow through our cheeks that will twitter The sorrows our eyes carries And heart throbs with worries Altogether we dwell The day has come for our farewell bit by bit watered and grown by teacher are ready to step ahead to see the future. All alone standing at this junction Days gone by are not illusion Really we are going to miss each other have hope to meet again further.. We all walked together in one path Our ways are deluged at this spot Some strike the engineering bell yet others to make patients well. Every one has different aim Almighty will lead you to hall of fame... Wishing you all the very best. Never forget prime nest..
THE DEVIL'S THIEF Arranged in paradise, by suffering's fate, to have no end, to be alone and wait, it was her love, acceptance came so fast she had no time to think it might not last, as he, the sailor left, she loved too late; He'd waited on the dock so long he grew to be inspired by something she won't do, 'twas just a recognizing love is there the reaching out for what is everywhere, but love for her was something all so new; the chart well planned, and ties that bound the ship were heaved away, and thus began the trip, upon the sea, past U-Boats ev'ry one, yet feared he not, his ship was let to run. their course away from where the moon would dip. She on the shore, he on the watch at three, both dreaming dreams not ever let to be but absence makes the heart more fonder yet, and out of sight means not they will forget; the ship sailed on, and peaceful was the sea; the gale that came and sank him to the reef, took from the shore the lady in her grief, and they were thus to marry, in the sea, united 'neath the waves, eternally, depriving love from time, the devil's thief.
Teardrops of sorrow, stream down her face. As she thinks of tomorrow, and feels out of place. Lies and infidelity, clouding her thoughts. She knows they were weaknesses, she could have fought. As the one that she loved, slips slowly away. She lies to herself, saying she'll be okay. Living her life, cold day after day. She'll one day break down, and quietly pray. "Help me dear father, in heaven above. Help me be strong, and teach me to love. " "Show me my worth, and my light that's inside. Give me my courage, and rebuild my pride. " A hollow dark hole, sits in place of her heart. Cause her values and morals, have all fall'n apart. What once was a sweet, and innocent girl. Is now lost and lonely, consumed by this world. She'd sacrifice anything, just to fit in. Sacrifice everything, and give in to sin. Loved ones may forgive her, but they'll never forget. She's strayed far from her path, but they won't give up yet. Holding her hand, they'll help her get through. But it won't change the fact, that she was untrue. She damaged the heart, of a very good man. Did things that he, just can't understand. Now I have no doubt, she loved him to death. But love's just a word, mumbled under our breath. For actions have always, spoke louder than words. And hate is the sound, most commonly heard. If you don't like the feelings, expressed in these lines. Then cover your ears, and cover your eyes. For a bitter cold boy, wrote down this letter. But he wrote it to say, that he's doing better. Lying awake, in the mid of the night. He smiles and says, "I'm doing alright. " Floating away, on an ocean of memories. He piles up the sand, to block off his enemies. Moving along, he hopes she's okay. But he won't let the thoughts of her, get in his way. Lying awake, likely miles apart. They each fall asleep, with a hand on their heart. For life is a Story, often painful to tell. But sleep sweet tonight, for they're both doing well.
Shush be calm, it's okay I'm right here, You're hugging my pillow and shedding a tear You have my memory and I feel your heart, Always forever till death do us part. We'll always have Paris and the empire state building Watching the Bulls and the yankees out fielding But there's nothing like kissing and the shared living touch, and the holding of hands that we loved so much. The smell of your perfume at the end of a day Knowing that just before work we had shower play Making love in the moon light the sun and the rain The memories of beach the car and the plane Running naked through sand dunes and chasing the sun Naked moon bathing naming stars just for fun It was always and only about just you and me, And it always and shall be for eternity. Please don't go just yet I have something to say Then you can let my balloon float away I thought I knew love and knew what to do But it all went so wrong when I met you My wires got crossed an my thinking went wonky My smarts all went south on a pantomime donkey But now that I'm gone I don't want you to worry I don't want you to rush to get here in a hurry It's all down to you now to play and explore Before you join my photo in our sons bottom draw Thank you for sharing your life and your love I'll be watching you always from the blue skies above From the wind in your hair to the moon in your eyes From the warmth of the sun and the sea and the skies Feel loved and not spied on, I want your sprit to fly I can't live with the thought of making you cry.
It was overwhelming, it was lovely It was my definition of forever, it was empowering I spread it into the sea Into space, time, and everything in between or beyond I spread it into their souls I spread it throughout the forgotten dimensions Betrayal, a curve ball Unexpectedly knocking me from this universe I floated, away from everything i had seen I was spread, beyond the city I was spread, further from the seas Closer to the bottom The light became dim The light became an illusion The truth had been unfolded beneath Like a trench, eager to sub duct innocence of loyalty For I had traveled so far... The spark, what is now a burden What now burns For once, it lit the way It guided the way that the mind created The illusion we were eager to find Now all that is left And of course, Only the foolish search for the spark
I'm churning milk out of butter but with you I curdle Cuddled and rolled into corners because there is a space here that hits me in the center of my chest I'm losing breath counting down to when it'll be me in your presence This place here for you I find a darkness and a tomb of your efforts but I am back expecting to start where we finished so I can get rest I want to inhale your purchased new scent and listen to stories I want to be filled off of your company so I skip meals until you're gone and I find myself hungry I want to pretend, want to pretend that I'm not listening, that these moments are meant only to take up time Want to watch you adjust your load so you can carry mine And what can I say when you ask of my tries? That I've answered? How can you measure my affection when it's what I'm too scared to lose? Come fill this spot here before my body collapses without the support I need your figure, height looming over me And now in some room your concentrated on things that don't concern me when everything I am concerns you I don't know how I hide it so well don't know where I tuck it but I know the silence in this room is beating into my drums and I want you to stop it
When you can longer run away from yourself When you thought there were no more tears to cry When you just want to die Living like this consumed by the façade of a million lies So many years, so many days Waking up to people who no longer care you're there You ask how can this be, one short organic vitality Wasted with living; the slowest way to die The shadows of shame weigh you down Until you drown, filled with only their hate All you can turns grey, and all you ever loved fades The agony is all you know, thank you pain A self-sadist Is all you have become, j ust how they showed you, craving so much more Just to hide up all of the misery But under cloth it still bleeds This is the Escapist's Plea For the one who fall to their knees in misery Trying to stay sane but fall under September's rain Dying from the invisible disease, only you can see Stigmatized by their sadistic need Only if I could just fly away ...Fly Away
I'm not an angel I hate myself I'm not the devil I love people I'm not human I don't feel anything I am a stone Water washes it but in its core nothing happens My core is empty My core is shallow My core is an empty black box A clogged box It can't be opened It can't be filled My heart is gone with the wind I thought that the one would have my heart But she does not This is a fight I have to face No one can fight for me I should face my demons I should face... me This is a one way road, there is no turning back I live in the dark, but someday I promise I will see the light
I write this letter to bid you a final farewell. and I truly hope it finds you well and fair. You see I've based my life upon your being, and every vain symbol and element you bare. But now the time has come to cut you loose, and sever this bond you and I have created. I wish to live my life not based upon looks; nor this persona of beauty you have delegated. I know it won't take very long to replace me – For others like me you will certainly convene. Who will rally in pride and assemble in deceit, all in the name of Sweet Vanity their Queen. They will bow their heads, proclaim their trust, in you, my Sweet Queen and irrefutably follow. Bidding well to their pride, masked in conceit – Your pill of selfishness they'll surely swallow. But as for you and I, we will no longer exist – in an egotistic relationship, shallow and bleak. I must move on and proclaim my lost throne, of the missing girl now superficial and weak. You see I've lived the hell and know too well, the curse you have upon the weak and weary. My beauty lies within, and not what is seen – Goodbye my Sweet Queen of Vanities dreary.
There was no mention of your name, yet, it matters not Watching as your body laid broken, when they took you away Felt a stab in my heart; as tears rolled down my face And my mind ran to your Mom, probably making dinner plans As the story of your final moments began to unfold Another young life stolen in a most horrific way! Not through any fault of yours; nor by God's design This creature from the deep mistook you for prey So much faster and stronger, it simply overpowered you So sleep now, little one- nineteen years is what you had I'm sure your task was completed; your forever now begins Never again to be snatched away by man nor beast I pray your family finds comfort in one ultimate truth The light which was within you has returned to the Source! *Note: For the 19 Year old who lost his life today in CA...+RIP 10/22/10
Old man, face wrinkled with age, moves slowly down bus, walking stick in shaky hand. Bus jolts, old man mutters. Kindly hand grabs arm. Fat lady, jolly face. Aunt Betty when he was young. Mirror reflections. Old man sits down wearily Woman in front, loaded with shopping, and two young children. One with runny nose, other chocolate covered face. Wife, children long ago. Mirror reflections. Old man gets off bus, walks down road. Lowered head, eyes sad. Places newly cut flowers by gravestones, three. Family killed in blitz. tears run down face. Mirror cracked.
Within seconds, life and death collide Within a blink of an eye, your last moments To hope, to trust, and to surety you are tide Your heart falls to its knees, and begins to pray to a God it so desperately needs You begin to lose ground…. Your very last breath …as you exhale and inhale is soo profound For it marks your very being All your sense are directed inward With sudden fear your heart is well cornered And a shrieking silence begins to sound, like thunderous cries Your mind begins to play tricks, to you, it tells false wishing lies Do not give up, to move head on…it whispers! it lies! With that last breath. As you exhale and inhale you still exist What was once real When life was once clear All of that banishes Even the hoping! The longing! For a nobler tomorrow vanishes Leaving all your nerves fried Leaving your soul dried Your very gist slowly but surely have died Numbness begins to creep in Like a devil when he whispers a sin Like a drum roll leading to a scene's climax Like when your heart drops to your feet When all stops…silence engulfs, Shhhh!!! Can you hear it? The wait begins to take a heavy toll on your nerves, for the moment that you have for soo long anticipated The very instance… The moment when life and death collide The very last moment, When to hope, to trust and to surety your soul is tied It all of a sudden unfolds, leaving that body of yours dead and cold A chapter finally ends A heart is finally set at rest I say my goodbyes And wish only to see you in the afterlife
I see in you the angel that you make of me... I can keep close to you, yet never see. You entered into my life like a morning sun, You promised your life to me in the long run... And now you'll leave me back all alone; Like you were the sun which never shone? Spare me my life, my heart, that's with you; Give me back my angel, cannot live with an angel new...
It's been so long since I could Feel you, Hold You I'm wondering if it was Just an Illusion For love For me could Not be real Nobody could Love over The Borderline, not even I So if you ask you'll know why I silently began to cry I need you here, to hold me I'm so scared without You I just want to Sleep forever Never stray away far Save me From Desperation Never Say It wasn't meant to be I can't take this lie You Kill me With this So much I hurt so much inside these words burn as I cry This life is destroyed without you The joy that comes is the Joy of the Empty The despair I'm prone to maynever wilt I way You could have been there You could have saved me but no you left I was here to stay In the Dark When the razor called me back You could have been my light throughout the eternal black My Soul Has yearned for but where are you Please come back to me I desire just a one word of comfort just from you, only from you Tell me this is just a Lie Just a Hallucination from my Mind I'm suffering I'm Dying I Need you I'm begging just for one word please save me from Desperation I'm the Petal You're the Wind Without You I can never go Far You're not here I'm now stranded alone In the plagued island of my mind only if you were here only If you here You could have Saved Me From Desperation
A Valentine's Day dedication for those who have lost a loved one. I know you're watching from far away. So I'll find the strength to kneel and pray, and send you our love this Valentine's Day. God gives me the power to understand, that we can no longer hold your hand. The sands of time pass graciously, until we meet for eternity. My unconditional emotion has no end. Like the flowers in the spring and your spirit in the wind. My hands are empty without you to hold. My soul cries out alone in the cold. My tears still fall and I wipe them away. God gave me the strength to kneel and pray, and send you our love this Valentine's Day.
How about them times! Some of them seem so goofy now, But what fun it was. How we laughed an laughed. What's missing now Is your face I was your ace. Not a foot print I wouldn't trace. Always wanted to be in your good grace. Never to act in hast. He would of never made it his place, To judge you; Is a lack of conversational taste. The fact that I adore you is but one of my truths. The way you shaped my views Puts others to waste. They have no clue to what the world holds outside of there face. I can help, But I'm not the man you where Dad. Sometimes I get so sad. And for real even mad. The world took the best person I ever had.
A woman lost Inside herself All we ever wished for her Was happiness and health She tried so hard To live a better life Still all she felt inside Was confusion, pain and strife She was a sister and a friend She was a daughter and a mother She was a woman Truly unlike any other She had her problems As we all do But she was always persistant Trying to push her way through She lost her fight After so many years She will have no more heartache She'll shed no more tears A loving mother And a dear friend We all prayed for her Until the very end Until the end of time May she be in our hearts May we remember her beauty Every time the sky parts If everyone could have Just half the heart as she Imagine the world That this could be We all knew her as Diana Some of us knew her as our Mother From our loss of this wonderful person Will truly be hard to recover I sincerely hope That in your eternal sleep You, my dear sweet Mother Have finally found your peace

Fifteen years old, I feel like I'm taking on the responsibility, As if I'm twenty-five. Forced to mature at a young age, All i needed was a little time. Time to think to have what the others had, Being a kid, the ADULTS to be my savior, Looking in the crowd from the outside, The looks of hatred and waver. The worse thing for me is that i feel so grown up, And don't have a job, No temps to take care of the family that I have left, Because they're so far deep in stress, An endless pain, An endless mess. I'm in high school, Taking care of my sisters 6 year old daughter with all my will Because she decided that she couldn't do it no more, She tried what they all said she'd never do, She took the chance, She took the pills. Me, in defence mode, For the childs soul, I want to save. But I know what it's like, The reckless feeling like I'm alone, I just can't take the visual sight, Of my little angel, Growing up with all this in her home. It's so hard to tell her, But it's gonna get harder as i wait, Mommy's not coming home for Christmas, With those words I felt my heart break. She reminds me of myself when i was six years old, To know the word hatred, To get used to being all alone. God i just can't stand it, When this little girl looks at me and says.. "My mommy hates me, I can never make her happy" I will do anything to save her from this mess, She has a heart of pure gold, Though no money could ever be enough to replace her, I just don't wanna believe.. That this is the way she feels, I will do anything from now until she she's grown up still, I just don't want to see her 10 years later, Feeling like she wants to escape, And going for those pills....
As time flews, Worries exist for wasting the past. No matter what happened last, Its never goanna play a part vast. Known mistakes committed, If remembered, leaves heart punctured. Mind keeps on compromises, Spirit always confronts. Smiles for no reasons, bent into Inner cries in impending spring seasons. Sorry if I made you cry hence At least you could understand how I wailed once. Learnt till extreme to block my tears Since GOD accounts its every drops. Thank u.. for your departure taught what World is!!! And I became skilled of judging persons I forgave whole heartedly Please forget how I abandoned you too. All most a year over spent time in yelling It's the point to turn an expeditious back. . . No more scratched mind, No more sensitive possessiveness. No more affectionate tricks. No more I Love the fake you. . Time heals the shattered thoughts Bringing bandages for uncut wounds, Its my Life I need to take care, Keep going with all obstacles there. I remember no longer your voice, your smell, Your touch. . No more and no more. . I know you cant survive my Attitude – so Make your way before your girl friend bid away. ~Hannah
UNSUPPORTED CODE We often hear this topic across our nation. Another person crying; "discrimination." In our many attempts to not discriminate. It seems like it's God that we seek to eliminate. It seems like we've come up with our own "rules." And somehow have turned into a bunch of "fools." We accept many perversions of various kinds… But God himself? We seem to close our minds! In many of our lives, we've "kicked " him out. And refuse what he really is about! The words, "In God we trust..." Our money bears it! Anything of God? We're afraid to share it! It seems like the courts almost say he doesn't exist! And have brought much confusion into our midst! As many say it's "offensive" to display a cross… Many godly values have already been lost! It's time to wake up America! And begin to see! The kind of country we're beginning to be! A country that's foundation is getting off course. Being driven by a wicked and ungodly force! Out only hope is in God! And him alone! We must invite him back into our homes! To God and his word we must hold secure and fast! He is our only hope that our country will last! By Jim Pemberton
Drain my brain of everything And leave me with nothing My heartache My pain My sorrow My depression My grief But mostly take my bad memories No bad thoughts matter to me Block out my haunted past Of the abuser of my mind I only ask you that you leave the memoires of good friends Leave my family My love My soul My kindness My music My ability to laugh And my only natural talents Music and what ever art that I can be taught...
Please Touch Me, Lord Jesus! Please touch me, Lord Jesus! I need you! I come now, because I want to be with you! Bless me with your presence! I patiently wait! I need your now! Before it's too late! Touch my life with your Holy Ghost' fire! Move me with a godly passion and holy desires! Come now! And bring a revival within! Show me your ways! And cleanse me from sin! Thank you my Lord! For doing what you do! I am so honored and blessed to know YOU! By Jim Pemberton
Nothing as cold as a winter of black. the world still moves, as if nothing has changed. "a snow angel" i thought as she fell back. she looked to the stars "they all seem arranged". her eyes a sunrise on the Coral Sea. Years pass people, continue in rejoice. my despair endless, as challenger deep. i long for her warmth, and ache for her voice. her love for me eternally in stone. love crashing down in a thunderous wave. stars came and went but i stood there alone. waiting for deaths sweet grip, by true loves grave. when joy comes with curved blade and dark cloak. time will mend the heart, it long ago broke.
Iv been there for you everytime you needed me, Iv been there for you in case of an emergency. I held your head while you were weak, I whipped the tears off your cheeks while you were sick. I brought you medicine when you had the flu, I helped you out in any way I knew. I made you smile when everyone around you made you sad, I cheered you up when everything was going bad. But now when I need you the most you are not here, I'm down on my knees crying now and catching every single one of my tears. I know all your secrets because I wanted to know how to help you, But you don't even bother asking me how my day went, ain't that true? Iv done everything in my power to make you into the person you are today, But now I'm reaching out to you, but you give me a smirk and walk away. I guess this is what I get for being the person that I am, I might of raised my voice on you, but that that just to make you into a man. God created all men equally, why should I be any different from anyone else, I treated you like I treated everyone, with discipline, love, care, without a mess. I guess this is what I get for being raised by the streets, Everytime someone went off on you I was there to have your back like the streets. But now I feel alone and don't see anyone by my side, I thought you would help me, that's why I cried. Now that my heart is barely beating, I want to say I love you, Remember me as your teacher, care taker, soldier, your brother.
The light I see In your eyes only when I speak of her. Our little one. She would have had your eyes, your nose. she would have had my hair and my my mouth. Our little girl would have been perfect. But that horrible day in July, I cried and I hated myself. That horrific day in July when I lost her. My world broke down. Now when I speak of her. Your eyes water up, as do mine. But one day we'll see her. I promise. Our little girl, is waiting for us. I promise. And one day, she'll finally say daddy. Our little girl.
its the end inside my head i must say goodbye my dear friend im entering the unknown im slowly starting to unravel and become unsewn you must not figure who i am for i am no one no one to be loved, no one forgotten, no one to grieved when the end is truly received i will not be one loved, i will not be one forgotten for there there there is nothing to forget but this mere note of uncertainty and confusion
Our country has sinned, and many don't know it! Any reverence for God? Many refuse to show it! We have sinned greatly, in our desire to leave God behind! And have tried our best to remove him from our minds! Even a cross or nativity is most often, not allowed! The atheists? You'll find them in most every crowd! We've traded God's commands for our own "rules." How dare you mention HIM in any of our schools! Whatever pleases the flesh is predominantly enjoyed! As many people seek to fill an "empty void!" Those standing for righteousness are often scorned. "Don't preach about God!" They're often warned! The freedom God gave us.. We've turned it around! Perversions and addictions greatly abound! His judgment is coming! People may laugh. But our country will endure his holy wrath! Our only hope is the get back to God's word! His message of salvation needs to be heard! Only Jesus can give a peace and love so secure! We need him more than ever! That's for sure! Through Christ' blood, we can be a new creation! Please come Lord Jesus and heal our nation!

I've been detached from anyone, and specially life, merely trying to survive on feeble hope, dangling from this rough and steep rock; I look above and another view transforms my strife. I tried to be that invincible hero, helping others ignoring myself and, most times, my indispensable needs; putting others first, if they were part of my family... as the truthful words of the Gospels brought perfect clarity. On my last days, I'm trying to survive on feeble hope, wishing that they wouldn't forget me when silence surrounds me, when every delightful memory will make my throat chocke; comfort me and assure me that there'll be a serene place awaiting me. At times, I was overtaken by anger, shouting to bring peace to an incident of jealousy, or an act of mischievousness; forgive me for my behavior, and you may have called me a square, an almost senile old man...being ridiculed for his bad manner. Now, your age is void of knowledge, of the wisdom I still seek, perhaps your intentions are naive and harmless; I understand how bizarre it can be when youth is at its highest peak: disregarding wise words that can correct your whims. In dire and discontent, I'm trying to survive on feeble hope, and my mission is almost complete: from a prophesied birth... to an unannounced death, unless everyone awakens and realizes my hurt; but if my conscience is righteous and pure, wouldn't Heaven pull up my rope?
Blow after blow upon the throbbing heart and my torn in half soul since you went away. Wish you could have stayed a little longer if only a crane could take me away from here help me catch up with you. I'm alive beside you you are the compass that guided me through many a difficult impasse don't know if I can brave these rough seas that have hit my shores since you went away. I know you will be with me but I miss your funny ways that have helped me through many a storm along the way. Blow after blow upon my throbbing heart and my torn in half soul since you went away.

Dear heavenly father I pray to you now, submitting myself humbly with my knees on the ground…… I know you seen the times I messed around claiming that I knew you but threw your name to the ground, understanding why you cast upon me your frown. I don't deserve nothing more, unless its your anger a fury of course. I've done so wrong yet you continue to let me go on, why you choose my life to have such a hold on. Show me my purpose if its good I'll accept it if it's bad I deserve it. I'm still young and not very wise I believe it's the reason why I put on this disguise. You know which one, it fights a lot and plays with guns. Lord you know how I can rid of this, yet you give me freedom of choice and a bad decision is what I'm left with. Your angels constantly fighting to protect me, set me free from this evil and let my love shine for thee. If not than help me proceed to things that are right and not wrongfully, to help me make a decision willingly and not end up beat up and battered spiritually. I try to pray out loud lord you know, but my feelings are at there utmost when I write to you through the Holy Ghost. Lord hear my cries and have mercy, let me drink from the spiritual cup, please I'M SO THIRSTY!!!
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
Unexpected company Brings unexpected sorrow Leaving me emotionally drained For the beauty of tomorrow I try and put on a happy face And pretend that I am glad But every time I look at you I'm nothing else but sad I glance at you, you glance at me Nothing to be said And when there happens to be a talk It shrivels black and dead The wrenching in my stomach Will never go away My soul demands to forget you But my mind will not obey You don't deserve the thought You don't deserve my care You don't deserve the happiness That you will always share Oh lost! Oh love! Can you hear my pain-filled cries? Have you gone away forever In your farewells and goodbyes? We'll meet again I think You! The only one that matters And there will be unexpected company As my hope and spirits shatter The world will spin on and on The cycle will proceed As you dine in cheerfulness And I the darkness feed I should have seen it coming I should have seen you going I guess the hardest part Is accepting I am knowing I hope one day he'll find me In my sickly state To cast away my only company— Emptiness and Hate
Who are and who is my friends or acquaintances, confusing everyday but today I have found my self to walk a path that is not so rough I became so blinded to have friends that it pains me anyway They take a simple kindness and think that I am not tough so by deliberately challenging me to act like nothing happens I grow bold Wake up you! and all the rest, I have something to say I don't like this feeling of regret or sorrow so please do not take me cold as a friend you should know to not take advantage of my kindness in away A storm is blowing inside my soul burning a hole in it so lightning is striking in methods unknown for in the distance thunder you hear Some of the greatest warriors fall with great weapons of bow antics that slaughters such feebleness as cowardices use an unseen spear To let one know that your feelings are clear do not hesitate to do so shows fear and that is one thing that can determine your choice With kindness in your corner you should easily win and that will be great! In the end you can hold up a drink with friends and smile and rejoice
Those Distant African Nights... 1. The shadows swayed in your candlelit room, a cool breeze teasing your bare back, streaks of lightning forked in the Johannesburg night, as my hands stroked your hair, kissing your soft mouth, holding you, ever so tight. 2. You whispered that you loved me, and I kept silent, the rain fell, shadows danced, thunder rolled, the breeze teased your naked back, you whispered that you loved me, as my lips found yours, the rain washed over our tender nights, lightning and candlelight, etching poems on your burnished skin, yet, a fear gnawed at me, deep within. 3. We parted ways, and you could never forgive me, you said, now, after numberless thunderstorms, the rain that falls, echo the countless tears that I have shed. 4. You are long gone, far away, happy, I pray, yet the memories persist, those precious moments shall never, ever, like the Jo'burg rains, trickle away, and I wish you well, for loving me as you did, for it was I who was not worthy, then, and it is I who is not worthy, now... 5. You were always true, it was I who always, always, refused to, to give myself, completely to you.
I do miss them everyday, To state the facts I know ill never get them back, Sleep that's what I lack In Conversational Understandings We got each other, because they where just- that- smart A want to interact, with us, as equals, but we where aware, they where parents. This, Absolutely okay. The vision may be myopic, but I will never, blame them. For being naive
That burning passion within The unexplainable feelings you sense when they walk towards you The loss of breath and the strangulation you feel gripping around your throat Choking off every last bit of air you have left to your name You feel like collapsing to your knees and crying Wishing you had them back in your arms and running your fingures through their soft hair You wish you could go back in time to re-live those treasuring moments of bitter sweetness You can hear their voice echoing inside your head at night when your trying to relax Your dreamless nights filled with tears and pain You outstretch your hand beckoning, begging for them to come back Memories sharp as daggers, peircing your flesh As they look away from you eachtime The warmth they gave you before is now gone You feel like your body has become a corpse to rot forever When you see then with another You feel so betrayed and furious Wanting them back more then anything You would give up everything you had left just to let them know you cared and still hurt You want so badly for them to just take the loneliness away Nothing else can be done Nothing else will work Your lost Your alone Your scared You cry for help but no one listens You feel like dying Even though they know that deep in your heart they still have that special mark But they'll never know what they meant to you so you write these words Straight from the Heart.
"Meeting you was my fate That day for a coffee you gave me a date And look ! I still wait I don't know what happened yet!! I look for my luck under the pillow inside my shoe Oh! dear luck where are you? My mind's reducing to less little and few! I am restless , got nothing to do! The first time i saw you My heart just blew blew and blew Your love for me was just as small as a drop of dew That's why I feel like putting my heart on a blade But still my love for you my love will never fade You can give me all of your hate But still I will and wait Are you listening my dear ILL-FATE???"
I drive past them quietly as I lower my head, the tragic resting places, the mournful highway sites of the loved ones now gone. They show us our mortality, they show us all the pain, they show us the senseless tragedy... of souls who are now elsewhere, of the loved ones now gone. We all take for granted the fragileness of life, we seem so immortal until we pass the markers and think of the loss - of the loved ones now gone. A vast network of pavement connects all those who mourn, we drive by and wonder about the carnage, about the lives of the loved ones now gone. I can't imagine the suffering families and friends must endure, I can only drive past with respect... of souls who now are elsewhere, of the loved ones now gone.
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.
I suppose there's always good reason to cry sadness never has a tough time making friends ominously, this dark acquaintance often approaches lending water for eyes to cry I suppose there's never better time than now to moan grunting and moaning are long lost relatives miserably, feeding off each other dragging stragglers along for the ride to moan I suppose anxiety needs a moment in the sun to worry flipping, tossing, in a cerebral ceremony fidgety anxiously twitching as everyone quickly moves to worry I suppose there's no harm in a little dishonesty to lie while thieves join the party deceptively a terrible tandem of dirty deeds and tendencies to lie I suppose everyone has the ability to struggle with adversity, where melancholy mingles blatantly crying, grunting, and moaning anxiety moves in permanently to struggle and I suppose, there's a heavy dose of negativity to digest mixed with stress continually it may lead to one hell of a nasty mess to ingest © 2011 ~JSLambert Esquire

Goodbye February 7th You died Leaving my broken heart behind I cried Darkness never looked so nice Depression never made me feel more alive When your birthday comes I will visit your grave Sit beside you and pray Talk to you Wishing I could see you face to face In heaven it won't be the same Cody died February 7th, 2011. He committed suicide. He was born October 16th, 1993. I miss u Cody and I love you forever. ~~
The Laughter on their faces and banter by the carts, is just another way of hiding the hatred in their hearts. The ground around here swallows our footsteps as we tread, now the water gently wallows where our friends once lay dead. One day this place is hell, on others, simply worse. I'm one of many stuck here, one of many with a curse.
We were happy; were we not? We were lucky; have everything we got. It was us; you and me. We were nothing, but meant to be. All was perfect, yet tell me why? Why am I walking down the aisle, and the one at the end isn`t you? At the side you stood, smiling at me. My tears were ruining the festive mood, Is this how you ought to be? Can`t you take me away? Why, for my happiness, you pray? When you know I will never be, without you with me. My heart is killing me inside, I walk to the end, he takes my side we take our vows. And this is where it ends, I`ll be apart from you I can`t imagine life without you But what I hate the most is not that I belong to someone else, but your heart, you will give to another lady. I walk out with him faking a smile thinking I`ll be alright when I see you again I rode the car he clutched my hand I see you through the mirror with a girl by your side. I felt I could die.
A Chipped Heart... Dreaming, my heart brittle as glass, my solitary facade a pitiful farce, shards tearing out of my skin, seeking release, from cages within, I am lost, in the dream, bellowing out a silent scream, torn from reality, drowning in the now, yet I refuse, I refuse to succumb, I refuse to bow. My chipped heart, may be wounded, wreathed in pain, still, I believe, love, truth, belonging, will take my hand, again...
We boomers, as our generation's called, have lived through two seasons, considered great, during which our values were overhauled -- The Summer of Love and Autumn of Hate. Both brought us together and gave us hope. In the face of injustice, both were staged -- the first, a celebration with free dope, the other a tragedy that enraged. We were innocent in 'Sixty-Seven; we saw world violence and were appalled. Our attitudes changed by Nine-Eleven; we sought revenge, though we were shocked and galled. While Winter of War passes, may we find The Spring of Renewal and peace of mind.
You just came into this world cold and bleak of your father/ But you made my life mean even more ever since your sister my baby daughter/ You make life upon soul as a man out in the desert that needs water/ I'm a full-time daddy now so there is no room for my mistekes to let me faulter/ I know I ain't the best daddy in the world son but I will do my best I know alcohol can bring me down but son you just being born makes me want out this mess/ I want something better for you than me when you are ready to leave daddy's little nest/ I sometimes just sit here and watch your sweet little stomach go up and down with every breath/ You are so innocent and I am so guilty of being a sinner/ I'm working on being a saint but how can I when all I do is let alchol be my only winner/ My addiction gets thicker as my liver and kidney's continue to get thinner/ I just want to be able to support you son with clothing, a home and an every night dinner/ I love you son, I really do/ So I must help myself past these self-made lies and do what is right and true/ I'm still an alcoholic and addict in a crazy rez life game where I always seem to lose/ But with your birth I can start anew/ I got big time father responsibilities now to where it will forever affect the choices that I choose/ You my first and only son/ As of now your my only one/ I look forward to our times of hardship and the times when we have fun/ I was at a slow walking pace but because of your birth it got my mind on the run/ In LOVE you NOW and FOREVER because your My First Son.
Chivalrist of pure intent Honoured by the ears that lent A tale recounted to content Resplendant wonders brought to ear Laments that draw an unseen tear Evasion of the heart's deep fear Soft young mind and placid eyes Lucid to the tale's disguise Unseeing the truth behind the lies There upon the golden water Wimsically listening to the lauder Inclines the middle Liddell daughter Days have come and years have passed Golden evenings couldn't last Erosionary time has swept too fast Dreary dawns and bitter nights Overcame the muse's might Dead and gone, that fragile light Greiving when his heart was tore Secreted to land of lore On through Wonderland he'll soar Now to dream forevermore
Alone and Afraid? There was someone I knew, alone and afraid... Her husband left her… She felt betrayed! I remember seeing her look of despair… Was there anyone who really cared? This was a very difficult situation. A lot of heartache and frustration! I remember seeing her at church before. But no one sees her anymore! People would pass her by, Seemingly, not concerned… Even though things in her life, had taken "the wrong turn." Aren't we to help the widows and single mothers too? This is what God's word asks of me and you! As the body of Christ... We should serve one another. Reaching out to the widow and single mother. We must let them know they're not forgotten! Before their lives hit "rock bottom" This is a command Christ Wants us to do! He'd do the same for ME and for YOU! By Jim Pemberton
It's beautiful, it burns The most magnificent sight i have seen It flows, it falls Thy turn there heads, as my lens focus The most perfect type of vision The core of my eye widens, It speaks, it whispers The ending to a movie It rolls, it sinks It makes my heart pound It overwhelms me, that there is nothing here but this That this will soon one day be over, My blood, it overflows It twists, it falls, It rises, it fights, And in the end, We are all glimmers of light All that is here when the day turns to night At the bottom of the ocean lie untouched skeletons, A mountain range, with blue skies overhead With shipwrecked cannons, Unknown bodies, who fought for this beauty, Unnamed faces, that will never be traced again, What makes them different, Is it what is beautiful, what we can't see The darkness, The fear, The emptiness, The beauty of nothing, There is no truth, The point past certainty, Where nothing matters, Because we are all the same, Now that the lights are gone
Watch as your wishing star flys through the sky, The way that your faith has been burned up so dry. Watch as this barbed wire coils your soul, The way that we love until we're burned in coals. Watch as the dragon so fiercly stands tall, The way that you know your opinions wont fall. Watch as our beautiful family is built, The way that we know that our roses won't wilt. Watch as the wings mounted upon your back, The way that a brilliance you never will lack.
Empty Black air fills the inside of your empty body. Polluting, what you say and what you think. Your thoughts aren't clear and it's hard for you to see. Nobody understands a thing you say. Because you continue to put that needle in your vein. Your lungs are so close to collapsing, from all the dirt you've been inhaling, day after darkening day. You might not see tomorrow, because you can hardly see today. You've let go of everything you ever had. Now your ship is about to sink. All because you didn't take the time to stop and think about what you're doing. You're not just hurting yourself, you're hurting those around you. But your too blind too see that the one you're hurting most, is me.
A mother is special for she gave you birth she is like a gem thats valuable and has great worth A mother is the one that is always there the one who is your best friend and always does care a mother is the one who always sticks up for you she stands by your side in everything that you do cherish each moment every single day for one day she will be taken away if you have a mother let her know how much you care for one day she will no longer be there dont be afraid to say i love you too and enjoy eevry moment that she spends with you. one day they soon are gone for me, i lost my mum twice, once when i was a young teenager, she left home was heart wrenching, lived with my dad, once when she later in life died of cancer, no money no riches no material thing or being can ever take that place, nothing can fill the gap, nothing can heal the hurt or the pain, the grief that we bear time dont heal it just helps u learn to accept she had to go even though why, that we will never know, if i could have 1 thing in life just 1 just 1 wish the only wish would be is to have a mother so many years gone by no one to love me or hug me if i cry. this is sad i know its true no matter what happend mum we still love you. xxx r.i.p mum I UNDERDSTAND U HAD TO GO
Time … to open My eyes… Time … to finally realize I am the monster … glazed in guise Time … to take responsibility Of your slow demise Of your haunting, screaming, aching unconditional agony Time … has stopped I am horrible Hyperventilating, breaking… Crying—smiling, faking Time … to see where the snake slithers tonight Smirking in its venom of spite To see myself crawl in its loosened skin And become one with its kin The slits of his eyes frighten me But I welcome his sick visions Who made these sticky decisions? Time … to do something To help you—to break me to pieces I am the slime where you have broken through…so revolting Time … to shake the sand away To relieve the burning eyes from the blindness Time to dip them in the cool water of action Time … To close up again I wimper in the dark like a lost hound.. I am so afraid Lost … but always found
Slayer of dreams and reality Bow down to his Therion Majesty Vowed to Be beyond Spiritual Supremacy, But too Frail, but too Weak, Were these words of The Transgressor of Our Argentine Destiny Reigned with Blood And with Blood You shall Fall Never denounce the ways of The Wicked For the Wicked you Have Become I'm Not your gracious Jesus Christ, Saving you from the blood-sodden Ice, But you Are The Beast Therion Majesty Can't control your own destiny The one who used to fight monsters, Became a Monster Himself Look beyond the Book, See the Truth lying there, Gagged and Hooked, Silence screaming to Be Free The Draconian Revelation Will Save thee The same Cold Pressure has erupt inside The Beast dwells in your Pride Dipped in Argentine and Insanity, Captivated by the touch Never looking beyond the Sin, For the Scene remains Empty I'm Not your gracious Jesus Christ, Saving you from the blood-sodden Ice, But you Are The Beast Therion Majesty Can't control your own destiny The one who used to fight monsters, Became a Monster Himself In your mind When the world Falls, Parodiso will open her halls But not for you, Inferno Cries out for you Forever Malaoda will Be your destiny I'm Not your gracious Jesus Christ, Saving you from the blood-sodden Ice, But you Are The Beast Therion Majesty Can't control your own destiny The one who used to fight monsters, Became a Monster Himself
Goodbye, farewell There is a time for everything But time for me has drawn its wings back away Leaving me to the sad hellos of today Do I wish to embellish in the sounds of your pain? Or will I take the back way into town to seek the reigns? Tension like ice crackles at the sound of departure Sometimes leaving it alone is harder I never expressed the selfish growths of my pride I am sickened in darkness, stuck in this mind Where is the heart when one needs the goodbye? Where is the mind when I break down and cry? Goodbye, farewell I never amounted to much Though I was granted everything My wings are folded too tightly with time The meat is tucked beneath and only I feed On the breadth of my own luscious nourishment Will I crush you with indifference? Silently beat you with fervent fury? Will I flood with tears of inward emotion? The sick selfishness one masks as devotion! Heat melts away the ice Replaced by tethered spite Goodbye, farewell! Before the night sweeps you away I never will cherish this today I will let the time dive into the abyss With the greetings and salutations one will never miss I will ride into the fiery skies with no care but my own Landing in turbulent waters in winds that moan There is a reason but it is unknown And that is how it will always be Can't you see this is good for you? This is the only way—I fear for you Abandonment is only an emotion So, goodbye, farewell
The lamp light illuminates My messy bedroom And brings me joy to my heart The lamp light turns off quickly The mellow midnight Has revealed its pure beauty The door opens and welcomes The priceless sunrise And inspires me to write poems The morning greets me again The lovely stars dim I miss the midnight wonders!
This day I awoke, I had spent nights up before, till the point my body is what gave in. One would say I was probly depressed, but I like to think I spent it, asking myself what I already knew. I can remember feeling, love, shame, anger and happiness, all after opening my eyes, i wanted to but i couldnt bring myself to cry. I manged to get dressed, and while it seemed like forever, before I knew it, it was time to go. The ride there, was drivin in silence, neither of us realy talked, the music singing sounds, that I couldnt realy hear. I have never felt so alone and I asked myself...can I do this? When we arrived, I prepared myself, only for what I already knew. they greeted me with honesty, and a calming I can't describe, and i wonderd if, perhaps Kim had felt this way. They spoke with words they probly didnt think I understood, but have been through so many tests myself, now my child was the one, the one about to be labled. I had to ask myself "Is this my fault?" I would like ta say when they told me, I broke down and cryed, the truth is I felt nothing, and I began to ask myself why.
Oh my darling, how I wish I knew your name. I've called you many things and Loves' the only one to stay. I've called you many times, now won't you come my way? Oh child at night, you, you rattle through my bones. But I wake up on cold mornings to find I'm all alone. And I cried, "Baby please, I can't lose all that I need". And I cried, "Baby please, I am only a man, And I'm working, trying the best that I can". I can't do this all alone, so I cried, yes I cried, "Baby please, won't you please just come back home". I knew all my tears would be in vein, But cried on anyway, to try and wash away the pain. I've called you many things, but "Goodbye" would only stain. Oh I cried, "Baby please, you'd be cold to walk away, But surely we'd both freeze if you can't find the heart to stay. So I cried, cried, cried, "I love you more than anything in this world, Now you've go to, got to, got to be my girl".
here one day gone the next never thought i'd see the day that you'd go before i if i could go back i would do it all over i can not press rewind just got to leave you behind you are in a better place now rest in peace Payton
Hope, tonight, is just a void Love is destroyed Reality impending my doom Suffering a dream that was never made for me I'm just the burden falling under your arms I understand if you give up on me Don't worry I'll be fine I can just wait, wait as in all eternity You deserve to be happy and free I'm just the burden falling under your arms I understand if you give up on me Suffering is the same as living Tonight I might, Today I may Set you free away from me I'm just the burden falling under your arms I understand if you give up on me You travel all across in my veins Showing you share my pain But my life was never meant for me I'm just the burden falling under your arms I understand if you give up on me I'm sorry for those days I've ruined your life Best you just ignore, forevermore I'm just the burden falling under your arms I understand if you give up on me Suffering is the same as living Tonight I might, Today I may Set you free away from me I'm just the burden falling under your arms I understand if you give up on me Suffering is the same as living Tonight I might, Today I may Set you free away from me I'm just the burden falling under your arms I understand if you give up on me **Morten Veland, Guitarist, Male Vocalist and Main Songwriter of Sirenia, formerly of Tristania**
You know what Just forget me, being with me, nothing good can come through. But one thing I promise is, I will never ever forget you. The memories we shared, the time went by too fast. They're all a part, of my tearful past. But we both knew we couldn't continue, under these conditions. There was so much love there, but too much distance. Please forgive me, for the choices I've made. I just want you to be happy, but please don't let the memories fade. I have cried myself to sleep, time and time again. And I'm just waiting for the one day, that maybe we can be one again. It's just right now, is no time for pain and love to mix. With all the distance and hate from both of out families that was there, it's just impossible to fix. Maybe we can happen again, sometime later in life. Just move on for now, don't be a sacrifice. You are too amazing, to lose forever. I'm not going to forget about you, not now not ever. No one knows, how much this is actually hurting me. Free from this pain I call myself, is what I wish for you to be.
Finding out Jenny Was My Sister…1987/1988 I had been known Jenny was my sister since late my sophomore year at Blackford High School. We had a class together. We were not close friends, but we would in say hi to each other. I knew my birth fathers last name was _____. So one day, I asked my mom about her, and she said yes, that she was my sister, and it was up to me if I wanted to let her know we were sisters. Well, being I was so young, I was scared she would reject me. So I let that opportunity pass me by. Each time I would see her though, I would be more sweet and friendly to her. She soon graduated with the _______Class of 1988 and I never saw her again. But she was never far from my mind. (names removed for our privacy)
Lord, I Stumbled and Fell! Lord, I have stumbled and fallen once again! By hanging on to a stubborn sin! I once thought, "My life will never get off track," Until that one day after I committed such a sinful act. "No one's watching me" was what I thought, I didn't now the pain and suffering, into my family, that I brought! That moment of "pleasure," I hoped would go away, But sin stares me in the face, every day! Pride crept into my once cheerful heart, It's now eating at me! Tearing me apart! I once thought I was "too good," to commit a sin like this! Many of God's blessings, I now will miss. To you Jesus… My whole heart, I ask you to cleanse. It's in YOU! That my life depends. Create in me a clean heart! Renew a right spirit within me! Your forgiveness in my life, is what others must see. The most important thing, to God that I can give… Is a broken and contrite heart, each day I live! By Jim Pemberton rev. 04/13/13
Jacob, im sorry, I'm sorry I've lied, I'm sorry Ive cause all the tears that you've cried. I know I am worthless, I'm not good enough, But even though so you show me truest love. I'lll work on my thinking, I'll work on my words, I'll work and I'll try until my heart just hurts. I swear I'll be good, I swear I'll do better, Cuz baby I want you until death and after.
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?
Comforting words Smooth, quiet tones Reassurance complete confidence Long nights spent reasoning In total understanding Twin thoughts twin minds twin miseries and twin fates Now it's so quiet Too quiet Complete and utter silence.... Oh my God, What happened to the good old days When we both made sense?! Lost in blurry dreams of childhood Colorful, wonderful, windy days Subconscious cradled memories of the times when we were eachother's only friends Only you, the sky the earth and me... No betrayal No lies No fire No hate No regrets. I think I can understand why you won't face me But your sudden silence is so confusing Did you ever know me well enough to know my affection for ultimate honesty? If you wanted me to go away why didn't you just say something? Only this emptiness is left Inconsolable grief... For what never again can be No warning No parting words No ceremony You went and had the funeral for our friendship but did not invite me From the start I thought these ways would always be But in the end, All I wanted, my friend was to say goodbye. I can't trust anyone anymore anyway All alone again shame on me
Transformer... I am so sorry I tend to whisper to my self while the wings on my back enfold me in my idiocy and bust in a furl of feathers and fire. My authentic halo falling broken reinforcing my thoughts on transformations... My lush lies crept up into me whispering to you my secrecy and my merry go round patterns... I was adapted to serous sabotage and unconsidered volcanic eruptions... Having nothing to react to I made my own quake... i deserve everything. But for you to say I can't feel is something that just shocked me at my core... But then again what should I expect? Secret boyfriends? are you kidding me...? But then again what should i expect... I gave you a reason to be suspicious a reason to say those things... With my viscosity on the subject I realize I have to be punished... and it has nothing to do with you...
Stop this bitter weeping Yeah I'm talking to you Though you may not be crying aloud Your expression gives you away Stop this careless weeping Yeah I'm embarrassing you Though you may not think we know It's been in front of us from the beginning Stop this despairing weeping Yeah I feel your pain Though you may feel like you're the only one Countless more will empathize Telling you to stop Is like telling the persistent priest to stop preaching Telling you to stop Is like telling the earth to stop spinning Telling you to stop Is like telling the weeping willow to stop weeping Telling you to stop Is like telling the fire to stop burning I know your crying But that won't stop the weeping I know I'm embarrassing you But that won't stop the weeping I feel your pain But that won't stop the weeping I'm going insane! Will you cease the weeping?
There was a wonderful change in my life today, A sense of something good comming my way. It's been a long time comming and it's feeling right , I know this because I was able to sleep last nihgt. Loving you has always been so easy for me , Holding on to you was very different you see. Finally the clouds and stormy skies have cleared, We can see it clearly now that it is so near. For years we have struggled with this love we shared, Only recently have the two of us become so aware. Of what we truly feel for each other these days, Leaving no doubts it was meant to be this way. I love her more now then I ever have before , To think I was about to walk out that door. She loves me I can feel her much closer now , The happiness I feel makes me scream aloud. Telling everyone I have a wonderful thing, The love of my Queen who has made me her King. We will live our lives making all the memories , This love I have for you and you have for me. TAC
I know you hurt - I know you work, You've never recognized your worth. I feel your pain - its every day, Please let your fears just wash away. I know your scared - it's never fair, Please realize I'm always there. Your hope is gone - this feels so wrong, Forever I shall sing our song. I see your cuts- were stuck in ruts, Please promise me you'll shed no blood. I love your heart - a brand new start, We never will be torn apart. We'll run away - that flawless day, I promise we will be okay.

Has the Glory of God Left the Church? Before the next church service gets started… Should it read, on the door; "God's glory has departed? " Many come to worship and don't even know. That's God's glory left such a long time ago. Many build their Sunday experience on "past traditions." Built on man-made rules and "false expectations." They don't want to hear the gospel of holiness! "It may offend." Their pastor no long preaches on what the Bible says is sin. Some have been going to church for many years. Still looking for teachers with "itching ears." Is the true presence of God is no longer there? It's no longer found in their worship or prayer. God's judgment shall begin at this very place. It hasn't happened yet, because of his unfailing grace. If God's presence has been left from your life as well, Remember his love for you will, never fail. Seek his awesome presence each day you live! He gave his son for you! What more could he give? Won't you see his glory this very hour? And be renewed by his word and life-changing power!

My friend, so young your countenance remains When word's cold death exacted Britain's pain In one brief moment quill caressed page, papyrus breathed to life, precocious sage. When first I gazed upon your stanzas long mesmerizing trance from an angelic song. A thing of beauty is the ink once spilled in Eton's courtyard 'ere long days were filled. Unending dream of dear Endymion's sleep imbued my soul in verses piercing deep. Bright stars like flowers and far-off Ganymede, ethereal seems real as what was real recedes and tides of dusk creep slow upon night's shore. I, upmounted by your winged fancies flew, a star-filled flight among the heavens new, and silvery moon, which never burnt so bright upon the shimmering waters of this night. From Latmos' Isle no stranger urges birthed into mythic worlds of gods and fairies' mirth. When lore and love released their final breath the heavens dimmed, as if to honor death and stillness hung thick in English moors, despair lurked yet close behind dread's doors. How long endured the object of your gaze Fair Brawne, whose aura obsessed days, did she, as we who grieve now centuries past shed tear on tear, romance of Autumn last? Having tasted, what remains on earth to weep? For those who love, your beauty never sleeps.
facing the first time her wheel-chaired son on the move saddest vale of tears driving his wheelchair his face splashes happiness enjoying his ride watching two people having their own point of view I can relate to we meet now and then all those years I saw his smile ten inspiring years an impressive guy cleaning his second wheelchair for tomorrows ride Note: 11.30.2012: message from his wife: "I did not expect my husband to be "on the internet' in such a unusual and also very special way. You have touched me very deeply with your poignant poem. Thank you so very much."
So tightly squeezed shut Is the flow to healthy flesh, That might by your release Ramble back and return again. The tireless dancer sends an echo, Desperate, pressing, Pulsing into the vice So far from home.

I see the world crumbling around me, people losing their moral ground Following what they think is right rather than what they truly know is right. Most people really are uneducated sheep and cannot see what's right in front of their faces. So many even mock the Lord and his word as if he didn't exist and even openly say with conviction that theirs no GOD! And instead there small minds worship a sport as if it was their GOD?! It really disgusts me and breaks my heart to see how far mankind has gone and I fear for their souls as they do not know what they do. Dear Lord please have mercy and help show them the way, its easy for them to be distracted and miss lead with all they hear and are shown in this corrupt world without its true intentions shown. GOD Bless all the Lords people and hold your heads high as the true fight is yet to happen and when it does . . We'll fight until we die! Amen
Autumn comes I stand watching the leaves..thinking The breath leaves my body unseen But as the mercury drops and as I ponder my place. I notice all I think all I feel. Right there on the window before me. To others it's just a mist caused by cooling or heating or both. A chilhood whimsical game"oh boy look it's cold" To me that mist is all, your name , your face, Our time. I want to wipe it away this physical aberation of all unseen in my heart. I see it all the pain the love the heartache everything in a small whitish cloud on a simple window. My hand reaches pauses oh so this is what you look like. Oh if it was so easy to be done. The mist fades rapidly with every lonely wasted breath. Making an apperance oh so briefly. What ever course I take to wipe away or to gently touch the mist. Would this breath on the window which taunts me so relay back to my damaged soul see its gone you'll be ok now or see how it welcomes your touch? welcome to the world for all to see. Hidden by the sun most of the time. My fingers glide through the vanishing mist, I flash back to your cheek beneath my fingers. Goodbye my love, goodbye my pain, goodbye to the only proof I have left of you. But at peace I am. I know now what I did not before. Your not invisable your their in my breath. Kissing the crisp Autumn air with me. And all I have to do is breath. And my visible breath will show me all I feel is real as real as the mist on the window
I've watched the soldier give, crimson blood, heroic sweat, and fallen comrade tears. I've pondered at the ignorance of society whose, stated they've wasted days, months and years. I've seen our soldiers suffer, for a mission others now see as being in selfishness vain. I've watched as humanity snubs the truth; our troops are ferocious and brutally insane. I've observed our blanket of freedom, now sport vast ragged holes and tears at the seams. I've witnessed the fraying of Liberty, which our soldiers delivered thru crimson hopes and dreams. I've viewed the injured and disabled, now home after serving their country honorably. I've grasped societies notion, the troops are now merely a number like me.

It seems the path Iam on is changing everyday the road uncertain just an endless shapeless gray some would say it would all be clearer if I took up there religion even with the doubt Iam not scared enough for that decision I see the faith you placed in one of the many saviors I lame excuse for the centuries of mad behavior Iam sure your prophets where the very best of man but your church and bibles where never in the plan so every race has a version of there own stories stolen from the gods of the past spoken out like it was always known not one of these faiths is open and understanding they keep others down and your soul churches are demanding then you history holds no science no enlightenment dogmatic foolishness written before free government and every soul that is afraid to die or to ashamed to live if you stop thinking then heaven is what they give even now the human mind is found wanting but reality is intelligence is hard work and life is daunting if only the concept of good will and love we understood without some sign from above if you need the ancient fiction to ease your pain I respect you and to all other men you should do the same your saviors were righteous there's know doubt in there time they worship but no church was there twist whets its about there have been many Christ's since the beginning of man the Mayans and Muslim have had tales since they ruled by the roman dry king ghandi and many more sacrifice there life so others could be free in my mind that's what Jesus is what he is supposed to be even know there some man of great worth he has no money no powerful church he's giving of himself and and loving the lost I dare you to search and see the truth were in this together and this is paradise we are the only keepers of our fate we must realize I can no longer people pay to pray and talk down to others who dont believe what you say but Christ himself did not hang with the saved he knew the hopeless so he could see them ok but times have changed were not ruled by religious empires mad with slavery we fought for those rights not with one mans good with collective human bravery a new age is upon us and the true test is coming not one of prophecy the makers of worlds the stars the cycle of suns chaos of the galaxy I hope soon we see are only time is now there is no second chance are race needs to come together and make a united stance if faith keeps us apart do we even have the heart
When I come home, you pretend to smile, But inside you cry, all the while. You know my thoughts are not of you, Just hope some day, I'll love you too. I know not why I treat you so bad, For, you are the truest love I have had. If you shall find the room to forgive, I promise my heart for as long as I live. All that I have is this simple request, Let's live from this day, not from the rest. But if this hurdle should be too high, I will cower my head and say good bye. For its happiness and joy I wish you to see, Not sadness and pain as when you're with me. So, have a nice life, and hope that you find, That prince of a man you once had in mind. Maybe with time, and the lesson I've learned, I can renew the vows that I have burned. To show my love for you of course, And to help you see my unfaithful remorse.
She wonders what you're doing and how you're living life what new things did you learn today and how did you sleep last night did you feel raindrops on your face or sunshine in your eye of all the questions left uknown the biggest one she has is why why can't you be together why can't she watch you grow why can't she guide you through this world this she just does not know but she promises you'll be together no matter how long it seems just know your always in her heart and always in her dreams Poem is dedicated to a dear friend of mine P.G Always remember sweetie true love is never lost, you will meet again someday.
When I Think Of You I smile cause I think of all the good times we had, I stop myself when I'm about to cry and start feeling sad, I just wish you could come back I miss you so bad. No matter what I do theres always something that reminds me of you there was so much things we've been threw. There thick and thin you were always by my side as my best friend. When I think of you I get chills inside I love you when you left apart of me died. Noone could ever replace you if they tried.
America is being destroyed from perversion within. As it's people indulge in wickeness and sin. The moral fabric that our country once held so dear. Is now beginning to dissappear. Many judges seek to remove God from our land. Traditional marriage... many don't understand. From the neighbor's house to the college dorms, Perversion is legal in so many forms. Our money reads: "in God we trust." Many are addicted to perversion and lust. Nothing of God seems to be sacred anymore. While his judgement draws close to our nation's door. This so called "freedom" that many have "enjoyed," Is causing our great country to be destroyed. America must heed the Savior's call, Only God can give true freedom to all. HIS word is our country's true foundation. Without him in our lives... we're doomed as a nation! By Jim Pemberton
**~~** I stand in silence under the starlit skies, breathing in my memories of you Standing so still in the shadowy breezes of time- Drawing in my sweetly scented secrets of our love So haunting -mourning the loss of your smile, your kiss Where your body filled my empty spaces as you lay next to me In the past- in that other time I needed your love to guide me - to lead me in the right direction So lost was I… in the 'cri de coeur' of love Our love battled all the storms- like sailors on the sea of life I loved the feeling when I was with you… That I would never let go of the curve of the moon Your essence of live giving air, filled my heart… Softly longing for your love as I looked into your eyes, your soul Gently cradled in the hours and days of you, listening to your heart beat It quieted my fears, as you tenderly kissed my tears away I feel carried away into the dream of you…of us Standing here alone now under the moon- dreaming of you As the air holds the scent of you and the breezes whisper your name Even tho' you no longer leave your footprints on this Earth They will always remain in my soul- For my heart remains wrapped around you... Forever **~~** By anne p murray
Beloved and familiar heart, the pain of loss, nay, just the thought of letting go, my mind does start to reel and toss, to plan and plot How cruel that, how very wicked the fairest souls, the truest love so random and unfairly picked to leave us for their place above My heart, my heart must surely break for your leaving and the hole it leaves no face, no heart, no soul may take your place, or comfort I that grieve I bargain, but all so fruitlessly to keep, nay, just embrace you longer but fate moves on relentlessly a force of which there is none stronger Beloved and familiar heart, I cannot halt those gentle wings that fly for you, your journey's start your destination's better things Beloved and familiar heart, my eyes, ere yearn to see your face some day, twill be my journey's start please wait for me, please save a place
Write a poem with words from the heart Jot down a sweet memory so you may never part Remembering the days gone by Sweet smiles and tears you've cried Forever cemented to live on these pages Sentances meant to defy the ages Return to them when you need a smile to replace a frown Or just to remember the path you've gone down Echos of happiness, pleasure, pain and guilt Words woven together just like a quilt Feel the warmth as you wrap them around Soft protection from the cold hard ground Memories of moments you just cant forget Keep writing your words and never quit!
This is to you The girl with the head up high Always so cheerful and full pride Knowing that alone at night you cry Always looking down on people Thinking that you are too good In reality its you, Who wants to be understood Hiding emotions so no one sees How true colors come out to be You may be beautiful through the outside But could be rotting through the inside Its best if you let that life go Before your interior shows And then no one will like to be next to you Because everything they said about you was true.

Welcome to my world, Full of surprises and ignorance; Just enjoy your stay, Take time to understand me, okay? Don't be confused with my puzzled mind, Those mazes are just simple information; That most of the people would question, And sometimes it includes me. My half-stone heart, Sentenced, not to feel any emotions; Opposite is the other, Emotional, kind and soft. If you want to come again, Feel free anytime; If you want to go, That wouldn't hurt a lot. For all who came and go, Thank you for the trace and scars you left when you go; It helped me to be tough, That's why half of my heart stopped. Thank you for killing half of me, I'm now stronger than I used to be; "Welcome to my world, If you can't stand me, Feel free to leave, And be happy."
I began to panic, but it was gone just as quick as it began. I listend to there mumbo jumbo, while inside there words made me laugh, the irony that i needed these people to do nothing more, then repeat what I had just spent four days reading before. I remember feeling anger, these people where talking about my child! ! When they where done, they shook our hands, telling us both it would be ok, Did they expect me to believe them? The ride home was better, then what had been worse just hours before, I could tell we both needed to cry, and not that I could see, if she did, because all I could do was stair into nothing. I know I was being selfish not telling her we would get through this, I guess because I needed someone to tell me, but neither of us spoke the words. And again I wonderd why I couldnt cry. The night passed on, most of which I cant remember, about two a.m. everyone was in bed, I grabbed the envelope that they had given us, it was so heavy from the papers, how could this be when hes only three? I rolled my joint, and ran some water, wishing that man had something simular, like the girly stuff calgon take me away. I lit my joint and started to read, and not long before I realized, that everything they are saying that makes you autistic, is everything I love most about you. And finely I cryed, I just couldnt stop, tho im sure I didnt want to, so into this emotion I gave in. I cryed and cryed, for two hours I just .....let go, all by myself inside that tub. And in a calming way, I felt older and strangly healed, my perspective had changed. for the first time I believed it was going to be ok. Simply just by being proud, that my son is autistic, gave me a strength i never knew I had. And again I wonderd if Kim had felt this way, and I realized what I had lost. And I had to ask, Is this what it means to grow up?
I just looked at your face and seen no smile, It was so bright and so happy that you could see it from a mile. I can't believe this tragic thing had happened, I'll never see your precious face again cause of what happened. Your eyes are closed and you breath no more, You lay there like and angel, and your soul looking up at the heavens door. The box is cold and all so small, Your spirit begs for it to run away so far. So save me a seat up stairs little sister, cause im coming soon, Ask God for me to forgive my soul cause I have been such a fool. I couldn't protect you when you needed me most, But your protected for ever now by our Lord and our host. Dedication to: Olga Kuznetsova. R.I.P
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.
I think of the years between us and Little snippets of our journey floods my mind. Life and all it's roads at times difficult Allowing us the chance to change, to be remade for the Last of all our tales shall be of our triumphs- Ways we conquered our self doubt, our impulses Always giving way to that better me, better you Yet you walk these roads with a heavy heart Soul weary and feet blistered and I say to you Be not afraid of what s to come Everyone is given only what he or she can bear Yes I say to it all - the pain, our tears, the laughter Our fears, - the joy and all these years between us Underneath it all there lies our blessing and Redemption in the form of this friendship For the mistakes, the errs are not erased but" Our Father In Heaven" Remember is the sweetest prayer In it we find the mercy he tempers our punishment Even as we are wrong, we are in his light No man can take your soul, so walk Don't run to the end of your life, when it is done, he is there.
*Nathan's Song Nathan loved to be playin' baseball Talk with his friends everytime they'd call He would rather be doing for others---any day. Nathan loved the lake in the Summer, Skiing in winter--one slope or other. He was full of life and had an easy goin' way. Nathan loved to eat Mexican food, Jelly beans, when he was in the mood. He would rather wear his flip-flops than shoes--everyday. Nathan loved dogs and playin' guitar, All kinds of music--he was a star! His heart was full of love and he showed it every way. You were my joy...You were my joy... You were my joy...You were my boy. Nathan loved to laugh and be funny, His impish grin was on the money: He dressed up like a 'Sugar Daddy' at school that day. Nathan loved his family and friends Especially one girl---to the end... And his death was full of life by what he gave away. Though he's gone from our presence, he walks with Jesus hand in hand And now, up in Heaven, Jesus says, "Well Done, Nathan... You are my joy...You are my joy... You are my joy...You are my boy." by Deborah Burch For: PD's contest of sorrows and make you cry poem *Note: Nathan was a senior in high school 6 years ago, the son of my BFF. He was killed in a MVA; his girlfriend was driving, ran a stop sign and a tractor trailer truck hit them broadside on Nathan's side of the car. The other 3 in the car lived...as did the driver of the truck...he had just talked to his mom on the cell phone--which was never found...I wrote this as a song and sang it for them as my gift...It doesn't end there: Nathan was an organ donor. Many lives have been saved because Nathan donated all he had left to give--the gift of life. This year his Mom will get to meet the recipients and they intern meet her...She, with the Red Cross, hold Blood Drives each year in Memory of Nathan: 'One Love Blood Drive'...This poem is dedicated to Nathan, and to the awareness that we can all save lives... Donate blood...and be an organ donor...be someone's joy. love,deb
My wounds are seeping My heart still weeping No time for scabs The knife still searing My mind still fearing My body is weary I see your eyes And I realize I've been missing The undying love A gift from above Soothing kisses Everlasting embraces Always new faces And they all love you Sometimes I wonder Sometimes I ponder Your love for me But then I remember Ever since September You've been my puppy

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.
You & me, so long we've been together, Why can't you see? Look inside.. I would never, Ever want to be, a traitor to my lover, You're the mother of my child, there could never be another. I love to think about the day when we first met, The day you walked into my life, how could I forget? I let you deep into my heart, now my mind's set, Because I love you, there's not a single regret. It's never black and white, we are both shades of grey, Now the world is full of colour and it's a fine day, You extend my power, nothing gets into our way, They say that love is blind, but this vision's here to stay. Now this feeling's been refined, in the fires of time, That have raged through our hearts, all along the line, Your smile shines down on my face, so divine, It's a crime to wastle a love, that is so sublime. I can be the rock, that weathers the storm, When the cold creeps in, I'll still be warm, I'm no Millionaire, though I'm richer than you know, Because I've got you Girl. When we were broke, we still didn't choke, The hardtimes fell, but we saw it as a joke! We worked and played hard.. but we saw the smoke, As the pressure awoke, to bring stress and to provoke. Opposites attract, because we both come back, It's a fact that I missed you, be we never ever lacked, Any reason to react, you'll agree, we're both cracked, You high-jacked my heart! So start showing some tact! Let us stay this way, today and tomorrow, And any other day.. there are plenty more to follow, We've no debt to pay, no reason to borrow, We've got a light to shine, in the darkness of sorrow. It has been so long Girl, we've gotta be strong, And let time make right, what once went wrong, I'll sing you any song.. in my heart you belong, I just know we should carry on.. I was the rock, that weathered the storm, The cold crept in, and I was still warm, I'm no Millionaire, but I'm still richer than you know, But now I haven't got you Girl..
Lovers departed Like two souls unwanted Sent to Hell in a hand basket To make it out on your own Futures are uncertain Hope can be lost Place faith in the fact that What could have been, never was Hearts and minds tend to fight An epic tug-of-war All you ever wanted blew out the front door And now all we do is search For Mister and Miss Right But did we just maroon them, each other, on shore? Long words abandoned For those softer on tongues One plans the future, The other plans today's fun Why can't they both Simply cross the other's path It's for not lack of trying Until turning one's back Memories have faded Yet others return Was it a fair exchange to receive the good for the spurned? The wrong days will cut you With fears and regrets Sometimes we hold onto What no one thinks is best In the foggy uncertain Only time can unfold If happiness awaits Or you die old and alone
Rhythmic swaying of peaceful waves Tides align with the influential moon, Lapping gently on wave-beaten shores Of frothy seaweed and golden limestone. Dazzling, too-blue-to-believe waters Mirrored in the bright afternoon, Eroded shores ancient with history Keeping its secrets of thousands of mysteries. Within honeyed walls that echo through time Are whispers of old that try to be heard by modern age man, Who is so out of tune and his instincts low, Not keyed to the earth. Age-worn battles of power abide Never realising that they're against the tide, For the Earth surely in its finest hour, will win its opponent in war, And seal them in through Earth's activity. A very good and fitting cemetery.
Mother Teresa been a historical, and an important, and a humble figure, as she had dedicated her life for the poor and the needy indeed, the best tribute one can give her is by quoting a single quote of her, out of the many though, the one mentioned below seems to be more precise, in today's world, "Let us more and more insist on raising funds of love, of kindness, of understanding, of peace. Money will come if we seek first the Kingdom of God-the rest will be given" Today, in the rush of acquiring money, many have forgotten this lovely aspect, the aspect of love, which is much greater than money, and had crossed a number of boundaries, from times immemorial, today jealousy, selfishness, greed have taken over love, wherein money is not that great, than love itself, as love is like a 'Can', which can be filled from the top to the bottom, unlike money, which needs to be filled from the bottom instead, love is greater than money indeed, as we do love our Gods, our wives, the children, whether they be ours, or of others, without distinguishing between their caste, creed, colour, Love is indeed greater, as we love the newborns born into this world, our friends , wherein love can also help us to defeat our enemies too, without love, no one can progress on, and neither the countries too, Therefore love is greater than money indeed!! 'Quote and Author':- "Let us more and more insist on raising funds of love, of kindness, of understanding, of peace. Money will come if we seek first the Kingdom of God-the rest will be given"- Author: 'Mother Teresa'
3:30am\ 12/12/12 By: Sami LaRose No longer do I sit on the edge of my of my bed waiting for your phone calls at 3:30am; That relationship is dead. It's nice to say I let it go As time went on I knew I was bound to grow The loneliness has turned my heart to stone [or so cold] But the Florence sunlight came in helped me let you go, she helped me to learn how to grow Self-healing and no longer self-medicated Healthy, happy, young and free These are the things in which we often take for granted, yes; but not me. So take a chance and maybe a fall, because you never know, life really is worth it all.
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more stormy and less temperate. Rough winds do shake our fragile bonds of May, And summer's temper hath all too short a date. Sometime too hot your sweat does shine, And often is your beauty dimmed; And every handsome man you do decline, by chance, they leave chest hair untrimmed. Part 2 Variation Shall I compare thee to a winter's day? Thou art as stormy and as cold And do leave me longing for May And winter's temper too long showed Sometime too cold yours eyes shine GREY
The Addiction Of Pornogtaphy... . A Christian brother had a confession. Pornography in his life was an addiction . I couldn't believe the words I began to hear. As a message of hopelessness from his lips began to appear. I began to see tears running down his cheek. "I go to counseling once a week." This was a "man of God" as many believed. True joy and fulfillment were no longer achieved. As the lust in his heart began to burn. Jesus-his once true love-he longed to return. In the coming days and weeks ahead. So many ungodly thoughts entered his head. He began to lose his family and all he cherished. His life before him began to perish Then one night in deep agony, to God, he cried out; "Is this what life is really all about?" "Dear Jesus...in repentance I come to you." "I have sinned against God and my family too." He forsook the things he thought gave him pleasure. And lived according to God's word —his true treasure. Run from every evil temptation & lust of the flesh. Or your life will end up in a huge mess! Pornography in your life will destroy and decay. From it's appearance—you must run away! Enjoy Godly relationships as Christ meant them to be. Walk anew in God's love—Only HE can SET YOU FREE! By Jim Pemberton
We watch as the world weeps. Is there anything we can do to help? Yes, pray for those in their time of need.
what have you done to me inside and out i thought art thou loved me but it was only lust that came into flames of hells fire and heavens light with only a singel heart beat left i am in tears bleeding black blood and till the day comes i am still dead in love with you and all of your lust.
It was a clear dark night When your voice was the only in sight, The many years of childhood, The "Hip-Hop Hooker," was the choice of many tunes, So know, that in our genre, We may never forget How the regulations of the game was maneuvered, By just 16 bars, or how we jammed and sang, Along in our car, To the many soulful grooves, This one, Nate Dogg is for you; REGULATORRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You my friend are all around. Feasting and nourishing, and setting your grounds. Within the hearts and souls of many you blossom. Is it I or do you seek out happiness and wash'em. Wash'em out of every modest soul, yes you do, No looking back, no check, no approve. Ways to destruct lives you ponder upon, you brood . I hear the pain, shaken up inside of you. The seas shall rise, and doubt what once seemed true. The anger inside of you is like a volcano on the verge of eruption. I hearken to the ache in that once harmonic voice. That is now, only to me perceived as a melody of a shattered soul. It is a hidden forlorn song, yes it is Your pain, you veiled from the world But my friend, I am here, do please unfold! Unfold your pain to me, let it be ours, let it be free! Let me act as an avenging angel That sweeps your pain and sorrows of yesterday And creep in better tomorrows Do not frown upon a broken heart, or a departed lover Let not that pain upon your shoulder hover I beg both of thee, unfold your pain to me, let it be ours, let it be free Together we shall drive a dagger straight to its heart Straight in to that parasites heart, we shall slay, For within these boundaries no parasites as the like of this, shall stay So my friend, I beg thee, do unfold your pain to me Let it be ours Let it be free --------------------------------M.M.M--------------------M.M.M---------------------------------------------
From my youth, I knew no goodness Teach me His truth So that I will meet success I hope I'm making little progress From my youth, I knew very little at first Teach me Your truth Or I'll remain in thirst I thirst for His spirit - to renew my faithfulness I have a nourished heart But, evilness broke it apart I had an energetic soul But agony took its toll And now I pray To Him who mends us all To save my young heart From the fear of losing control... Do I still have an innocent, Young heart?
Why do I strive so much in life This heart of mine cease to refine Of hope and love and tranquility I give and give, yet scarcely receive It's the heart that deceives My Soul resides upon a mountain of misery It shouts, its scream, yet high up above, as it seems Away, away from mankind to care At times like these I am at despair Hoping, seeking and wishing to share I speak my heart, my thoughts, and my mind…. Yet scarcely, do I dare to show this degree of misery My essence is as thin as air…. If I hit mankind in the face No mark, no remembrance, no trace shall I leave No sweet- sour memories to reminisce upon Its as if my very presences is provocative to mankind They ask me kindly, oh please! Oh please! do leave, Save us time and disappear! No one to care, no one to adhere to I loved and laughed and lived and hoped and trusted in mankind Yet from this day on shattered and stiff and deceived and depleted, is what, I now am I bare a load wrapped tight around my heart That never seems to crack or break, No fitting key, no rock to break…. For my humble abode lies within my mountain of misery Where I reside high up above from mankind From; Hurt or pain or deception or greed From this day on, to no one shall I heed I fight my battles on my own I sail upon a one-man boat
Love So simple right? WRONG! Tears, Heartbreak. Watching the one you love, be in love with someone else. How much can one person take? I'm not sure how much I can take. These decisions I make, These words that I say, Are all for you. I hope you understand, I can no longer just be your friend, not with all that we've been through. So my last words to you are, "I'm sorry i ever met you" :'(
I have not eaten today, But my heart is filled Not hungry of affection. I had a fill of you last night A fill of you for a life time All around us are walking corpses Corpses of political disregard Humans of no nations Even when they are bona-fide citizens Your blood and mine flows in them The government abhors the poor Feeds them with empty promises Shoves them through the door They pay the bills For social amenities they can't find Pay taxes for their castles Government built in the air But we know their ancestors Filthy dogs eating from the king's crumbs No; Lets not unknot the knot Soon a messiah might heed us In heaven's book of life, I heard the poor names are there In here's book of life It is deleted. Thus, in your head, Lays your kingdom and glory Get rich or die trying Or; be their poor and keep sulking. Well, like them I saw… I have not eaten Flesh gone weak to skeleton Nevertheless, The solitude of love within Keeps me living; I am breathing But I am moving, Towards your direction I see your beam I feel new When I see you From my heart Seeps through the rays of the sun Its fun; this love on death line We survived the genocide We survived the war We survived love We survived us I love you too. This poem is dedicated to the abused tribes of Rwanda and Nigeria during their respective civil wars resulting in near human annihilation. Though time has passed, we still feel your pains chilling our bones. The survivors.
my destiny I have to resume my purpose or so I presume all doubt I have to exhume responsibility I have to assume its really never too late or maybe it's just fate only God gives a clean slate even when we have lots on our plate people so particular about dates all this time they use to hate showing no pity even to sister kate with perdition as their right-hand mate I dream of a season When I'll finally see reason The cause and need for all this treason In a world where all trust is dead Judgement day lies in wait like a bed Unto lies we are lead Into the abyss of uncertainty we're spread Sometimes I think I need a breather I just can't take it Hook, line and sinker There is so much at stake See how they tinker Or dignity they finger Our death-beds they make Their lies flow forth like a lake While in suffering we sleep and wake It's time we opened our mouth to talk And oh, they're gonna hear it all in bulk My words are gonna hit them like the hulk I'm so tired of sitting to sulk In any event that I lose my life At last I'll escape for all this strife.
Wake up to find its not just a dream, the morning rips a new wound of reality. Forever gone, Forever missing, All the regrets building up inside of me. I could have been better, cause you were the best, I love you with everything now you took your last breath. You went, happily and chased the birds over that rainbow bridge, I hope your watching from above c ause when you left you took a part of my heart ...RIP My Beautiful Puppy. I Love You Camille Baby?
This is just a dream soon, I'll wake up from this night It can't be what it seems When I open my eyes, it'll be alright But everytime I blink, tears elude my sight it hurts to even think that this could be real life Another day passed on and still, I'm not awake is it possible you're really gone? No, it must be a mistake Yet here we all are gathered in tragic sorrow and disbelief As I kneel down at your casket I can barely breathe This is just a dream I close my eyes and pray Please, before I scream let me wake up from this day But when I open up my eyes I see yours are still closed thats the moment I realized you're never coming home It really hurts to even ask why Sitting in the church as your coffin passes by Inside my heart was torn why is life so unfair? I'm in the house of the Lord but don't feel him anywhere Still I pray for guidance from above to somehow get through this Do you know how much you're loved? Do you know how much you're missed? Somewhere inside I know you're okay You watch from the sky You're not far away and with time I've learned to carry on but at times it hits me hard That you're forever gone and I'm forever scarred But Sometimes, even now, a part of me still believes that you are here somehow... and this is just a dream* for Charlie. I miss you <3
What If Joseph Kissed Potiphar's Wife? What would happen if Joseph kissed Potiphar's wife? Just think about the impact this would be on his life! If he'd entered into her temptation and charm… This would've cause much damage and harm! Many of God's blessings, I'm sure he would missed 'em! If he's let Potiphar's wife reach out and kiss him! Thank God that he didn't succumb to her beauty. He held fast and remembered his God given duty! A life serving God was something that he chose! Even if it meant her tearing off a part of his clothes! Godly living was something he decided to choose! Even if it meant him being falsely accused! God used him while he spent time in prison! He trusted God, and knew that he was with him! I'm sure there were things that he didn't understand. But soon, God made him the #2 ruler in the land! May this be a stern warning to me and to all! Think about what temptation may cause you to fall! Scripture says "resist the devil and he will flee from you!" Run to God! And allow his presence to surround you! This society often encourages to "indulge" in sexual sin! This is where so much heartache and misery begins! Run to the Lord! Seek his spirit to lead and guide you! A way to escape temptation, he'll provide for you! Like Joseph, run from temptation as fast as you can run! And lay everything at the feet of God's precious son! His love will sustain you! Regardless of what you're "missing." So you too can receive HIS love and Godly blessings! By Jim Pemberton
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.
Her dreams crashed on the shore of reality Her ambitions lay covered in the blanket of misery Life has stolen a piece from her And left without saying as much as a word Time heals wounds but what about dreams Her scars run deeper than my imagination can explain She holds a suicidal amount of unreleased pain But her screams will not be heard Her giving up has never occurred Her bravery has slain dragons in ages past Her courage has pushed forth soldiers fighting for freedom Her attitude has broken through diabolical spells cast Its her motivation that allowed the tyranny of oppression to become undone She stands tall, as life tries to break her down But with every punch with every pound She never shows where it hurts She never complains about her tears She never breaks the glass of valor Tales will be spun, for she is what makes it all possible Everything breaks down in time But her shattered pieces of dreams are nowhere to be found She picked them all up and placed them somewhere to never make a sound For dreams are ambitions that have lost their drive But she miraculously manages to keep them alive Shattered, broken, unhinged, damaged to the very core Unable to walk on clouds no longer able to soar She is now an angel with clipped wings A dancer with no ankles, a story with no end She has been through the darkest of pits She has wormed through the narrowest of slits Cut, bruised, beaten … life gave it it's all But she is wonderful because through it all I would have broken down, and yet she smiles So for that I wanted to say thank you
I don't know how long it has been since i heard your voice, I don't know why i left without a word, but it was not my choice. You wished me away, so i left without a word, you told me to lose you, that's all i ever heard. Tears ran down my face with every thought of you, not being able to see your smile, it would punch me though. My chest has a whole, that you put there, it hurts some times, but its not like i care. I been hurt to many times before to feel anything at the moment, I thought we had some thing special, but at the end you broke it. So now again i am all alone and I have no shoulder, my life is empty now i am beginning to feel allot colder. You showed me what people can be like, some thing like you, people that hurt others and than walk away like they had nothing to do. But they don't know that they just ripped some ones heart out, and your left alone, once again, bleeding on the ground.
What can you say to me that I haven't already heard? You haven't even said anything, but I know your every word. You'll tell me that you love me; you'll tell me that you care; You'll tell me that through anything, you will always be there. I believed it once, a long time ago, On a star filled night like this. You told me you loved me more then anything, But I never felt it in your kiss. Why is it I still dream of you? I can't get you off my mind, But the love you claimed so strongly before, I still cannot find. I think about you every moment, But you don't even see, The pain you caused so long ago, Still hasn't let me be. I need to leave this all behind, A life of pain and sorrow. So save all your wasted words, For the girl you'll love tomorrow.
In life there is always one mistake and I made one of those mistakes Of course it'd be me to make that mistake and well here we are apart out of love out of each others hearts and I guess I won't Get that chance back but if there is one thing I kknow It's that I'll always be there for you And I won't let anything happen to you In my heart well i guess I don't have a heart left It's been shattered so many times But I won't let anything hurt you and if it does then i wouldn't have been able to keep my promise But one I know I will keep is I'l be there for you forever and always.
You abide in the light I'll miss you…when you venture off at night Don't forget me… Don't discard me… Don't leave me… Forgive me for drifting away from you… Please forgive me… Please don't ignore me… Hear my pleas…don't turn the other direction… Run with me…into heaven's light I've given you my soul… I've shared with you my melody I've fed you until you were full… I've healed you when you were under the weather… I've tried to bring us back together You hang on the rope of hope I'll rely on you…I'll cling to you… You saved me from subsiding into the obscure abyss Don't reject me… Don't depart from me… Don't release me… Respect me for who I've become Please respect me… Honor my presence Protect me from any sort of harm Is it in your nature to relieve my anguish? I've been driven away by my affliction I've set you free from Egypt…and lead you to the Promise Land Have you forgotten my affection? I've tried to empathize what you're going through – I've gave you a helping hand Don't you understand? Will you ever understand? You abide in the light I'll miss you…when you depart from my heart Don't forget me… Don't discard me… Don't mourn for me… Forgive me for wishing for your absence… Please forgive me… Please don't give up on me… Hear my side of the story… don't turn the other direction… I'm still training for perfection Run with me…until we arrive at home Hold my hand and we'll take divine flight I've cherished you for so long I've lead you to my home town – Do you remember where you and I belong? I've given you my trust… I've shared with you my dreams You're an apple to my eye You were my angel of grace, promising concord – Bestowing blessings upon me Your vitality never wears off… You were my lamp – Glowing with serenity and elation Tranquilizing my mind from despair and unease I'll never regret…meeting you that magnificent night I knew that that was love at first sight The moment you stepped foot into the light
I feel like sl-lit, i wanna flip. Let my words rip, come take a sip. My phone keeps on ringing, its chesney hawkins singing. I get this scary feeling, she's gönnä nail me for stealing. I look at the sealing, wish i knew what was the meaning. I must start to pray, every single day. I'm smoking myself to death, i need to take a deep breath. Please don't make me fall, i don't wanna end it all.

Adolescents gallivant the street in glee they sing and shout enjoying freedom they never accounted for knowing not the pain the ones before suffered so they may gain Ignorant of the blood stained walls they pass as they happily walk Their noise makes the streets come alive in the night It disguises the cry of the meek to howls of joy it silences the death rattle of the woman suffering at the hands of the beast for he still roams the streets its tranquil in ignorance that covers the deceit of the man standing at the alter preaching the one who hears the desires of the afflicted has gone to sleep he sees us not for the fire that was once ablaze is extinguished this treacherous sin is the wax that has covered the ears of the creator darkness roams where light once was for evil prevails when the good cease to do good behind closed doors his monstrous hands daily caress her body everyone hears her cry yet hide behind their fingers and choose not to fight a hero to many is a villain with no mercy only the foreigner objects to this inhuman behavior a heroine walks in to save the day for she is a purposeful trailblazer a breath of fresh air that tangles the cobwebs that lay troubles the stagnant waters that the nostalgic thought to be bliss uncovers the hidden and frees her from captivating and enlightens the world on the wrong of the situation A new generation rises to take their place its a choice well all should make or drown on a trance to a dismal fate its either we stare in ignorance or end the cycle of abuse fight the scourge that has prevailed before YOUTH WHERE ART THOU? THE TIME IS NOW! STAND UP AND FIGHT Ignorance is not a friend!
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.
I am a lost person, but I am not alone. I make choices in my life and I choose to let go. I need a change of space, and my lyrical notes, The beauty and the face should fade, but more I want to grow. The nobility in life is sad, when madness is a nuisance and insanity a fad. I have some regrets, some I can't forget, but If I can't forgive myself, then who will forgive my sins? I'll give it my all, and pray I win. I'll keep my heart locked and throw away the key, never let anyone inside, so I can remain free. Can I question a higher power, or would I be dead, The scum of the earth, creating poetry that is read, by the mindless masses, blaming the heart to death, I hope this will heal me, burning the past, The beauty in the innocence, never really lasts. I have a feeling tonight will open my eyes, and guide me too the light instead of lies. I'm praying to god that you are how I think you are, because I need compassion, not just a broken heart. I don't know why I like you, but you seem to close to part. Please don't leave me here, surrounded in the dark.
My Dad Left Me... My Father Found Me! I remember dad tucking me into bed each night. I somehow knew "everything was going to be allright." I remember the Bible stories he had read. Each night before I went to bed. I remember the smile dad had on his face. It was like "love all over the place." Then one night. he left. I didn't know why. The many nights I'd lay awake and cry. How could this happen? I was so sad... I became very upset, angry and mad. How could God let this happen to our family? I thought dad loved us and was happy. He never returned... Never did explain... I began to curse even the mention of his name. Then one day, I read the Bible and began to see... How much Jesus really does love me! I asked him to be the father of my life today. I'll never forget the words he had to say; "I'll be with you each step that is taken." I love you so much... You're never forsaken!" Jesus... my heavenly father, has given me love so precious. I have a relationship with him... that's so nutritious! My dad left me. My (heavenly) father found me. And now each day... His love surrounds me! By JIm Pemberton
I sit and I listen Watch the phone Wait for your ring Even knowing you may not call, keeps me on edge I guess I like being on edge It gives me a sense of excitement The excitement I must look forward too. It gives me that senses of comfort that I beg for I continue to listen in the house to hear you, even though I know you are no longer here The somber sound of your sleeping breath reminded me of comfort Gave me hope...I guess? In the morning we would brew our day over brewed coffee Planning our adventures not our leap from the edge
Torn from the thoughts of yesterday Torn from everything i thought I loved Torn from a love that I thought was true Sealed shut with lonely, scattered, depressed fears Sewed up with the needles and threads Made up of confusion, hunger, lost, and pain Scared of new love and thoughts Moving rapidly into my path of nothingness I want to feel again I want to feel real love I want to feel the closeness That's the hunger of my heart But who am I to expect this From someone whose heart's been harmed I feel the sadness that lurks there You remind me everyday The more I ask of you Is not my place But I will hold on No matter how badly the stones of sadness hit I will resist No matter how shattered my heart gets I will wait For you to let me in Love you with the fullness of my heart And I will not hate
As we headed with the shadows Along the primrose path You were bemused, you were afraid You were alone You let to live along with those humanoids from the deep Cursing you... Yet you concealed your pain With your smile that appeared so lone. Once I misread your eyes I lost my patience... There I thought I lost you forever As thereafter I woke up When I heard You were crying all alone. You heard me I was calling you As I whispered your name that traveled along with the wind - I chanced to see you again I sought to hear you again I paced to walk with you again I cherished to smile with you again But all of a sudden I lamented the words you said Yet you cajoled me As for the first time... I realized... I was afraid of losing you When you will walk away to another life. I tried to fight the humanoids Those who cursed your life Sometimes you misread me And we bickered endless nights. Yet we held each other tight And tried to revel the days with our playful acts I enjoyed listening when you sung the 'Rik' rap, You made me bellylaughed everytime When you rhymed the 'honeybunch, sugarplum', I spoke to you as long as I came to your dreams... You made me to laugh out loud When you mimicked my rude voice so accurately. Thence you asgined me to be your knight and you fronted a battle you wanted to fight - I accepted and I was ready withal my armors But all I lost When I realized...my Queen's realm was already occupied by those humanoids... And my sword can't shed further blood As my Queen is still living with her wounded soul. I Wish where-ever you are Be happy forever And Still I know... You can hear me ANd so here are my last words You will be remembered forever... Lots of love, Your Rik.
I wanted to talk--my life has hit "rock bottom." You said; "No...we've nothing in common." I thought we did...we both go to the same church. For some fellowship, I'll begin a new search. Many Sundays... My voice goes unheard. While in your hand, you were carrying God's word. Are there others who'd spend a minute of their time? Or am I just a shadow whom they would leave behind? I thought the blood of Jesus was our common thread. What are we doing here? Are we spiritually dead? I hope that with me, you won't just "push aside." Wasn't it also for me--that our saviour died? You meet different people every day. How do you react to others whom God brings your way? May God's Holy spirit convict you to spend Your time with others-- not just those you call "friend." Being Christ' s example is truly a blessing indeed. Reaching out to the hurting--those in need. This is where Christianity really starts. When we reach out to the hurting and broken hearts. By Jim Pemberton
Will my life last, much longer? What am I doing? I began to wonder… Many things keeps dragging me further down… What'll I do? There's no one around??? Many "things" have a hold on me… I cry every night… I want to be FREE! I've tried and tried… But to no avail… Just when I think I have victory… I fail! I've read in scripture of a power I haven't seen. I read of a lord who can do ANYTHING! I'm going to give him a try! I've nothing to lose! I've been so hurt, worn out and abused!.… To you, dear Jesus… I confess my every sin. I can feel your love from deep within! Thank you Jesus! For giving me a joy I never knew… I don't know where I'd be if not for YOU! You've brought to my life a peace I never had. For all you've done for me. I'm so glad! Won't YOU give your burdens to the one, I call friend? And experience the joy of being born again? Please come to him now! Why not this hour? And experience his life-changing power! By Jim Pemberton
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.
The putrid scars left from the past Like most things, will never last Finding a lover who binds them with zeal In hopes of letting their other half, know it is real But do not ever take the fear or the pain Of another with thyself as to blame For it is not the one who is presently their It is you that is the sight of fresh, loving air! Oh God, the thought of losing that half Of a person's heart, which was built to last The scars that are healing from the wicked before Never again to feel the pain that was endured The lashing out in suspicion is mere self defense! It never means that one's heart with you, is tense After the words that are spoken comes sorrow For what if the words make all gone by tomorrow It is a terrible thing to think of that lost Everything is done to keep this heart, not matter the cost So forever remember, there is love in this heart Never trembling, nor fading, nor spreading apart
Bombs keep on falling Bullets keep flying No matter how brave Our soldiers are dying Held in their trenches Under the rain With photos of families Mixed memories and pain Marching through fields Thinking of home And if there'll ever be peace On our troublesome dome Beyond the horizon They hope for the door To enter their home And behind leave the war Wives all indoors Thinking the worst Individually hoping Not to be cursed Hoping for peace Through the flight of a dove Praying to God The safe return of their love One minute of silence Is what they may say Though it seems not enough For the price they do pay Love, Thanks and Respect Seems the only way To salute our brave soldiers On their remembrance day.
She's Lost--I'm the one left to blame Forsaken by my potent manipulating game I've killed the one, My starcrossed heart Desires ...But not By My hands I Try To Follow her ghost But the fog and mist are too strong My eyes are rendered useless "You're Never going to Find Josette" The netherworld Spirits sang I Won't lose Heart I Will Win this Fight For My Sacred Josette's Right to Life This is what happens when The Devil's Adovocate Falls for Jesus's Greatest Bride This is what happens When The life of the disease Loves the cure it desperately hates Drives you mad But Wasn't I already? Josette, I'm begging you To Drive the Faerie out of Me
lastnight i cried i cried so hard i almost died i had the thought of loossing you and i didnt know what to do Yesterday seemed so tough because i had treated you so rough i hope you can accept my apologies and this time im saying please i love you and i dont want to loose u
THE LAST POST............. Six soldiers bear a coffin, Of a comrade killed in war. The Union flag draped over him, A hero to us all. This soldier killed in battle, In a conflict overseas. A man who fought for his beliefs, While defending you and me. To the families of these soldiers, Of my thanks I give to you. The bravery that they have shown, Such courage is shown by few. A military burial, a volley of shots, Then a flag lifted up from its host. And as we lay him down to sleep, A bugler then plays the last post. God bless you our brave British soldier, For this country still owes you a debt. You gave up your life for our freedom, This ex soldier will never forget. .............Rest in peace...............
I want to be brave I can't trail on...when you're gone (2) Why are you gone? Hey, I can't save...you from the sorrow - I can save you from the grave Do you want me to grieve for you? I can't hold on...when I have no hope - we must wait till the dawn Where are they going? Where have they gone? Why is this frustration growing? ooh... Why's the wind whispering in my ears? How could I face my fears? (ooh ooh) Do you want to be brave? Do I have the ability to be brave? You're fighting back the tears… I'm bottling up the fears Why? Why do you want this love to end up in the grave? You're regretting everything… Why are you hard on yourself? I'm trying to forget that one thing… Is it my fault your acting so strange? Is it my fault that we have the problems spreading like cancer? Is it Satan's fault? (Oooh… oooh…) I want to be happy Why aren't you happy? I can't feel my feet…when I feel so incomplete… (2) Why do I feel this horrid feeling? Hey now – I can't hold you all throughout the night…I can't set you free I have my insecurities…I sometimes hope you're doing great…it's a treat To finally know where you're going… But I still store up unanswered questions They pass my train of thought And then I fight it all away, but all for naught What's the meaning of life? I don't have the answers... Do I search for clues? The wind leaves my heart to beat… it's still blowing… Why's your voice ringing in my head? How could I go to bed? These questions Are left on your desk like debt Pay attention!! Are you answering my questions yet? You're reply is naught...................... .................... ............. Where have you gone now?
Dear Lord I await your embrace as the weight on my shoulders is getting harder to take I see the pain and daily lies that we spread its our mask . . our disguise The pain and suffering is like mystical chains pulling me down to a darkened place, I know you are with me so I should feel no fear, but it gets harder each day and year by year. I write this now with tears looming in my eyes, my strong front hides the pain deep inside; Your love keeps me going . . your secret signs show the way, yet I still pray please make the pain go away.
--dedicated to my friend Laura Breidenthal... I really wish I could be there for you more... ----------------------------- Pain Pain is here Pain is there Pain is in the mind Pain is kind Pain is cruel Makes us a fool Your pain My pain our pain her pain his pain their pain Pain is life Pain is the edge of the knife Pain is worry and strife Pain is knowing I cannot comfort you Pain is doing all I can do To try and help anyway Pain is sorrow Pain is today, yesterday, and tomorrow Pain is always and forever Pain ends never Pain is the smile on the face That vanishes without a trace Your pain... it's the worst pain I wish to take your pain Drown it with the rain I WISH TO HAVE YOUR PAIN I wish I wish Pain does not comply It remains...a calloused lie Pain is there Pain is here Pain is the worry that tomorrow Tomorrow will only bring sorrow Pain is NOT BEING ABLE TO COMFORT YOU! Pain is the futile attempt to make that smile appear to you Pain is knowing it's all to no avail Pain is know I just fail Pain is here Pain is there Your pain My pain Pain are the tears that constantly flow behind the closed eyes Pain is hoping we never have to say goodbye Pain is strife Pain is life Pain is the series of irrational cuts on the skin Pain is the forced stretched fake grin Pain I see in your eyes Pain I wish was all a lie Pain I wish to take away And allow happiness to stay Pain Pain Pain is always there But if I could I'd take all your pain away...
This year has brought me much heart-ache, grief and many a tear I did shed For I lost a friend so close and dear to me I was a heart-broken and empty lass As my world crashed down and Shattered like glass. It was the saddest time of my whole life that I've ever Felt so much grief and pain in my heart I could not cope with being apart From my dear friend Coni. I still sit and think of her each day and have precious Memories that will always remain in my heart and Stay in my mind for hope and comfort I do find, Remembering the friend I had Who so loving, Compassionate but most of all kind, What a true diamond Of a friend I was blessed to find. In loving memory of Coni Oliver Sept1956-July2012
My dear beloved friend, I feel you late at night, Curled atop my feet, And keeping my heart alight. I see your sweet smiling face, Everytime I close my eyes, And feel you rub against me, With all the love you have inside. My loving baby girl, I feel you here beside me, Comforting me of all my pain, Your close to me once more, And I have not to weep as much, When I feel your tail waggin against my legs. RIP My Puppy Camille <3 I love you babygirl

From the Bible, there's a Story that's taught… The story of Abram's nephew Lot. There was a path for Abram and Lot to choose. But Lot was the one who really did lose. He chose to live in Sodom! Filled with wickedness and sin. Grieving the heart of God once again! God's angels came, and led him out! Before fire destroyed the city throughout! To live in this city was his choice! His own fault! Later, his wife turned into a pillar of salt. Please watch where you go! And what you say!. You're called to represent Christ every day! Evil company corrupts good morals! Your spiritual life will rot!. Please don't live a life of compromise! As did Lot! By Jim Pemberton
"Someday" Why is "someday" such a sad word? When one like "never" is so much worse? Why....why "someday"? "Someday!" Why is "someday" such a sad, sad word? Perhaps the saddest one I've ever heard... Why "someday"? Everybody has somebody Except me, it seems but that's not why I want to leave So out of it feel "out of it" Never was in can't find the way "Life's one big bluff Keep a straight face Don't let 'em see your cards." Yeah, life's one big God-forsaken bluff and I'm about to jump off Someday, I thought you'd find me Someday, I thought you'd love me But someday .... ...someday...... someday NEVER CAME "Someday," they say, "You'll find somebody." "Someday, you will be happy." "Someday, life will mean something." But someday I'll be SICK of waiting Someday, you'll see why it can't be Someday we'll ALL be sorry One day sweet day I'll find my way out of this body. http://vimeo.com/26557410
Elegy for Heidi I The clock ticks away. But there is no layer of time and no decision to make. II I have been jaywalking on the edge of the roof for the last few weekends; down below the grass looks already dark, depressed, as if death has made it. then a bird, a simple blackbird sits on the bough. It cries out and a hand rises from the green earth like a bride waking from her bridal night, gleaming. I know, I know, I know, we are all life's disciples. III "Come on, wake up!" "My God, you are from East. It is Still night here." She said. =© 2009 - All Rights Reserved Kushal Poddar
I'm Not What You Expected I'm not the kind of person you'd expect to be. I have a lot of faults and sin deep inside of me. I'm not the kind of "Christian" that you had expected. In many of the churches… I'd probably be rejected. I'm not someone you'd invite over for dinner. I'm pretty much a "loser." Never a "winner…" I'm not the kind of person that you would call a "friend." I have so many troubles. I don't know where to begin. I may not be any of these things. And so much more. Not the kind of person you'd allow through your door. I was told there is someone who is there for me… Someone who gives his love and mercy abundantly. I was told that if I come to him, and give him my heart. He'll change my life completely. And give a NEW start! I was told that no matter my faults in this life I live. The son of God has the power to FORGIVE! I may not be the kind of person you'd expect to see. Desiring to be in a place called heaven. For eternity! Jesus is the one that I really need right now! I confess my every sin to him. And humbly bow… I come to you my lord. And worship your name. I'm so glad you're here right now... I'm so glad you came! By Jim Pemberton 10/31/11
As a race We chase the tail of approval As a race Cowardice abides Dissonant souls And dreary eyes Measly lies And tensions rise As a whole We march to the melancholy drum And bathe in the scum Of what we've become Oh sadness, my old companion You, who tore me from childhood fantasy You, who made my joy a fallacy You Seldom is the heart In a place willing to give In a place worthy of peace You're living, at least Though you may not want to live As a tribe We cannot deny As a tribe We can no longer lie Or divided, and lost We all will die
Too many children have had to grow without ever having a parent to know. Ran through the foster parent system,with no one ever asking them. And what occurs when they get some bad ones,beatings,isolation,sexual assaults done. Then growing up and living with what occured,their conscience telling them this is absurd. So they go through life being afraid and believing that those who hurt them must be obeyed. It truly is a sick circle they must live in,and how this affects others is truly a sin. So we must try to get them through this and most times it will be hit and miss. But someone must be there for them,to ask those crucial questions where and when. For if they never release that pain inside,they will always surely run and hide. So "PLEASE" dear LORD! Set there evil free,and when they've released their pain could we then work on me.
Her eyes spoke of love beyond any comparison. Simple glances she could speak volumes of words. No language spoken by voice though much power, Intently she was observant to her surroundings. Graciously she painted concern with attitude. Sometimes so sternly advocating her desires, Strong and dainty from her facial expressions, Strong and firm her deliverance was given. Protector of family for eighteen years she gave. Her mind was efficient and carried life high. Not a companion a family member so dear, She witnessed illness, took action quickly. Strong mind but weakened body, driving forward, Asking in her gaze, she told of needs and desires. Her name, Heidi, a game she played when young. Carrying it forward to daily actions she had won. Hiding her eyes from anyone, no one could see. Upon her face as she gazed back, unhidden now, Was a glory and loving smile, with sparkling eyes. She shall be remembered with such affection true. Lost we are now without her presence each moment, Quietness passes our days and nights without her walk. No "Tick Tick Tack"as her paws use to tap the floor. Missing her yawn upon her first wakeup each day, Her presence no more still reminded by our hearts. Her spotted coat remembered by all our surroundings. Dalmatian by breed, Living Angel, now Angel in Heaven, Upon a future time, we'll be reunited, with a living Angel. Written in Memory, for much more than a dog, She was a daughter, a sister, a granddaughter, protector, friend, buddy, pal, neighborhood watcher, along with so much more.
What happened last night brother, Please tell me it's not true, Was i a bother, Don't tell me you have no clue, Why am i locked up in an asylum, Don't you trust me, Am i getting my mammogram, it's my right to know please tell me, Don't isolate me please, I beg you, am only human, Tell them to handle me with ease, Am almost a young woman, Don't turn away when i speak, I need some answers, These injections are making me weak, Not forgetting my ulcers, Is this about the mercy killing, Please brother, don't cry, You tried your best but am not healing, Please let me die, I can's feel my limbs, The medicine is getting stronger, Please take care of the other siblings, Am growing weaker, Am done leaving on life support machine, Just let me go, You tried but am a broken engine, lease let my spirit go, This are my last words brother, Please don't try and save me, Last night when i had a seizure, The doctor defiled me...,
G oing to the store the other day O n a bright morning I listened as D rums pounded a slow cadence by a military escort. B efore I knew, I was watching the cortege, L eaving behind a dumbfounded crowd. E verything I had ever known of war was S ummed up in this parade for S omeone unknown to me. T ears misted in the air as he passed, H eavy footsteps of the soldier's parade... E verything precise for this farewell. U nder a bright sun and blue sky S olemnly they took him to his final rest. A merica, the country he lovingly died to protect.
Countless tales told across the sobriety wall names and dates,memories and remembrances marked in the here and now upon the white brick wall. Most sobering to look upon more so when comprehension is awakened by the meaning within the words. To understand the everyday evils those upon the wall have faced when dealing with drink. Death to some a most blessed relief to others,the torments lived everyday can mean that rock bottom comes more and more frequently ...with each passing day. To block out ones most painful memories ...the hoped for end. To dull the pain felt,whether ...real or imaginary. To appease the demons harbored within so to quiet their restless destructive nature. This and so much more is sought after by those whose lives have been in constant battle with the bottle. Words of encouragement/sadness to remember ...pain, joy, regret! all expressed upon the wall. The spaces fill rapidly at times, slowly other times colors upon the wall help to tell the stories some colors most vibrant, some most somber dull and lifeless like the lives expressed by the ...very ones who painted them. One thought, the line most poignant ...and noticed above all others! "Never give up hope". Are words to remember and to live by.l
Running to hide Hiding to run My life is a circle When will this rotation be undone Everything I do Its the same song and dance A sheep in wolf's clothing Yes a wolf at first glance I can't help I am addicted to thrills No words to describe how it feels Honing my skills Turning my heart to steel Making my case to fight the devil Stone versus stone Fallen Angel versus Fallen soul The thrill to shake the bone Love made me Then love destroyed me Stuck with nothing to lose And nothing to gain Vengeance is what I choose Standing alone Forgetting everything I've ever known I can break this rotation But it has to be now or never All because I loved her And she left me for dead Destroying my heart And messed up my head Circular life I am back to the night I am back to fight
Death, in its unhurried wisdom, ends all doubt and sorrow. It is a lasting remedy for all Illness, insecurity, and loneliness; The finality of it ends all pain with a sweetness not otherwise known. Its sweetness is known only by those, who in their passing have smelled its fragrance. The pain of those left behind has a fragrance all its own, a bittersweet emanation that assails the senses with its pungency. The strength of the void, left by the passing of one loved, seems endless. Time and faith, working in unison, will lessen the strength and fill the void.
Once upon a time, far upon a distant land, Was a field so beautiful, it would take your breath away. For, for acres and acres out tulips fanned. A beautiful reflection of the sun's bright yellow. But in the midst of the baskets of the sun, A tiny red bud popped its head, It grew unnoticed, seen by none. But as she blossomed, things started to turn around. For among the yellow tulips, the rose was a novelty, A sight that every passer-by would stop to acknowledge, To appreciate the possibility, the rose's color, her beauty. And the tulips' monotonous color only enhanced hers. But even as she was constantly valued and admired, Even as the whole world seemed to love her, The only thing that her heart truly desired, Was the soft caress of the dew drops from heaven. Because you see, under the tulips so towering, The little rose only had a small window to the skies. She only watched as the tulips danced in the rain glowing. Her heart ached for when a tiny drop would fall upon her too. Among her many admirers, one started to visit frequently, A young man, lean and handsome was enchanted by her. He would gaze at her and at times stroke her gently, For he was enraptured by her beauty and fragility. He would sing songs, write poems about her, And soon the tulips cleared a path for him, From the edge of the field to his pearl. But soon the rose was nearing her end. She knew it and despaired, for she never lived her dream, Even as she revelled in her admirer's love and affection, She would never get that chance, it did seem, For she was losing her petals one by one. The last day arrived and she held onto her last. He was there by her side looking melancholy, Remembering her vibrant days, visualising the contrast. Afraid to touch her, he sat by her side. He couldn't help it as a tear slipped out, But the little drop landed straight on her only petal, Her heart lifted and her soul soared, for she had no doubt, That the dew hugging her was more special than any from the sky. In that fleeting moment she felt truly at peace, She had realized the true meaning of love, And so the last petal she did release, To move onto her eternal ever after. - Miliya Parveen

The greatest joy I have ever known is knowing you are calling on Monday at five thirty in the morning before school. "Hello, how are you?" and "I'll talk to you later." Every word from hello to goodbye is cherished. Your smile makes me warm inside, and how much you mean to me puts tears in my eyes. I really think I love you. Actually, every fiber of my being is pretty sure I love you. Warmth and acceptance and peace and deep contentment... But there is a drawback. I fear to loose you. You are across the country, a thousand miles away, and I've let you down enough to encourage you to focus on your college work, because that's important to you. and because of that, it's important to me. Except I can't encourage you to leave. I can't encourage you to go. Reader, my dear friend, as selfish as it is, I can't loose you. I always thought that when you found the one you want to be with, the love would make everything work. I never expected it to hurt Because as much as I love you, it would destroy me if you were lost. And I think about loosing you a lot. It's crippling, and horrid, and with something as unrealistic as daydreams, I know what it feels like to burn. I can't imagine what it would do to me if it actually happened. I am afraid to love you. I'm afraid to pick up the phone sometimes when you call, but not for any amount of money in the world or any incentive would I ignore that phone. The reason for that is that i love your laugh. When I'm talking to you, you help clear my mind and I can think. And the biggest reason, Reader, is because I am happy when I talk to you. I love you. And you are precious beyond words and you are everything to me. I have a love that hurts and it scares the crap out of me And I wouldn't trade it for the world.
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
As I see more ungodly laws being passed… I wonder; "how much longer will our country last?" As many believe that God is no longer needed… A tide of wickedness has relentlessly proceeded! Many kind of ungodly acts on t.v. are displayed.. As the colors of the rainbow are often portrayed! A tremendous tide of filth and sin greatly abounds! Where are the righteous? Where can they be found? It's time to think of where our freedom came from! The blessings of God, we certainly received them! Our country's taking the wrong direction! It's almost like we have a deep ungodly infection! It's time America, to return to the God of the Bible! And refuse to worship and entertain false idols! On our coins, "in God we trust.' Is what it reads…. But deep inside, our country "spiritually bleeds!" Out only hope is in Christ! And him alone! We need his principles of truth in our homes! He is and will always be the one who's provided! Without him…. A path to destruction is decided! If there was ever a time… We need God this hour! We can't make it under our own strength and power! Please come Lord Jesus! And touch us by your hand! May there be a true repentance throughout this land! It's only though Christ, that our country can have freedom within! As we come to God and seek forgiveness of sin! By Jim Pemberton
I wish To demolish my sorrow… I wish To forget the despair and gleefully grow… To forgive and seek the challenges of tomorrow… My downfalls and my failures… I wish To disappear I wish I had no fear… For God's near… I wish I could be a cheetah in the grassland I wish To store all of my energy for an evening run…I'd never give up in the process I wish My whole spirit could simply sponge in God's nature and make great progress And I truly wish I could stick to my daily plans of building a sturdier relationship with God I wish I had the merriness in my life especially during hardships… My countless wishes Brings me down to my weakest point… My countless wishes Overthrows me…but it helps me in the long run… I wish I could forgive My daily regrets and breakdowns I wish I could forget My despondency – embracing my frowns I wish To live a life without error Without a care I wish To be flawless when I make my everyday decisions And scare away The darkness that tries to make me give up I wish I had more time to overcome… These waves of emotions My countless wishes Brings me down to my disheartened state… My countless wishes Are like walls from every direction closing in on me… But it's a convenient tool in the future… I wish I could be live in someone else's shoes… But what good would it do? Would it lead me to the narrow pathway? Would it inspire me to push all of my doubts away? Would it push away the blues? Could He give me any clues?
The monster became a living, walking nightmare my dive into insanity, no longer perfect, containing a blank stare I should resist, the monster will find me, run away with me Pretend to hear my meager complaints, force me to see what I'm afraid to see Blame and guilt, volleying right and left, up and down It's crashing me closer, with every step, I'm falling to the ground It's all a game, just play along, play the game, play it well Brimming confidence, dissolved in thoughts, of what? I won't tell Demons, devil born souls, run quick, run fast, stand my ground No sense of fear, n sense of foreboding, not even a slight sound High speed, pursuit of hell, bent on going, bent on crashing Giving into the power, life's faster, lights flashing Crash and torment me again, my eyes close after all The beginning of the end for me, feeling numb after the fall Is there a way out? I'm different, distant and moved on Listen to the water, calling, coaxing into death, I'm gone Endless, empty cloud; dreamless oblivion; oxygen, exhalation Am I dead? Still alive? Broken into pieces, I need motivation Reality closes in, walls me in; until there's nothing there Death comes behind me, containing a blank stare.
Depression seeps through my soul How can I write when my heart's such a droll? Can a set of fancy words truly make him appear? Alas, it is never meeting him again I fear Would he not gaze at my verse in surprise? Would he not see it pour through my eyes? In tears I ponder upon his reaction Every line a bittersweet satisfaction I care not for evenness; I care not for whim, I care not for dead words, only for him Often when such words escape my mind, I try to see him in them, but he's too hard to find In truth, I see less of my heartfelt rhymes As the clock striking seven heavenly chimes Pictures race in my frivolous head I see his green eyes; I hear the things he has said 'Never Again' are the words I now cry And my heart knows those words never die
Life with a disease Is Hell enough Without the drama and accusation From family and collegues. Cerebral Palsy, Bound to a wheel chair for life, Is tough, What's tougher Is being seven With secret hatred from your mother's lover. Your dear, sweet mother Was working hard To make life A little easier. "Bath time" You thought As this man put you in the kitchen sink. Slowly bending your neck As his hand grasped Your delicate body, A knife Was risen With a clean slice, With that Your head was gone. Your tiny body, Thrown carelssly into a white garbage bag, With your decaptiated head On the side of the street For your mother to see.
Are We Being Driven to God's Elimination? In the names of diversity and anti-discrimination. It's like we're being driven to God's elimination! God is being "forced" from many institutions! All in the name of this country's constitution! We're told that God and this country must be "separated." Anything less is what many would call; "discriminated." Any forms of Godly virtues or values are "torn down." Any symbol of a cross, is often "removed from the town." It's no wonder that this country's in such a big mess! And yet this country wants to be strong and blessed? "What shall the righteous do if the foundations are destroyed?" Meanwhile, the tide of ungodliness, is often "enjoyed." Those who are trying to remove God! You must beware! His judgment is soon coming! And will catch you unaware! There's will come a day! When God's wrath you will endure! The wages of sin is death! This is very true and sure! People may think that removing God is the "thing to do." Anyone who attempts to do will wind up as "a fool." Only God can fill the void in life and true love within! Only he has the power to free your soul from sin! The words; "in God we trust," in our lives must be applied! Everything we'll ever need… God has supplied! God is this country's hope! It's only true foundation! We need HIM right now! To come and heal our nation! By Jim Pemberton
I knew of a brother, who told me; "Go away!" Throughout the years, he had nothing to say! Perhaps I should put a trophy up on his wall… It would read: "1st place for not giving his brother a call." I'm not sure if it was something I did or said. It's almost like he "wishes I were dead." I wouldn't want to be walking in his shoes! It's him. Not me. That's going to lose! Is "cutting someone off," really our place? Especially those who've received God's grace? Should a trophy in your home be displayed? Has God's love in your life been portrayed? Rather than trying to give someone a "shove." Why not take time, and show him God's love? God's love speaks louder than 10,000 words. Especially to the many who haven't heard! Is there anyone whom you refuse to say; "I love you?" I pray that the love of Christ will reach you! Being an example of Christ needs to be our goal! His eternal peace and love needs to fill our soul! If you can't forgive... You'll neither be forgiven! Who is the Lord… Of the way you're livin'??? By Jim Pemberton
This is the story of a beautiful horse named Glory Freckled and spotted She stood but a twig Lost in a forest Of abandonment Tires and barbwire Surround her by day And at night she suffers The coyotes cries, not far away Left with no food Or water to drink She stands by a tree And hopes for relief Halter grown in And hooves overgrown Not a grain in that belly And left all alone Withering quick She stands by her tree And hopes a kind soul Will help her to see There is life still No matter how grim Things seem from beneath This horrid, old tree This halfhearted twig Awaits her relief As the days pass her by And she writhes with grief Her name is Glory All freckled with spots Like a giant Dalmatian Trapped in this spot At the end of her lead She was finally freed Not a day too soon She'll now find relief Halfhearted no longer And happy at last Whom once was a twig Knows Glory at last Halfhearted no longer And free from that mess Glory has found relief At Horse Creek Ranch* *Horse Creek Ranch is, to the best of my knowledge, a fictional name.
Everyday I listen to songs that remind me of you, I miss you so much I feel lost I dont even know what to do This is the hardest thing I ever had to go threw. I would give anything just to have you back, But I know thats not gonna ever happen so I dont know how to act. Now your miles & miles away, If I had one wish it would be for you to stay. I just hope your happy and okay. Since I cant tell you I love you to your face I'm writing you this poem to let you know our memories noone can erase and in my life noone will ever take your place.
Your blood is what was Sacrificed And in Blood we Shall Bathe No more pain nor more hate Will be shed for me ...This is only a desperate dream A slight tender touch on the largest of wounds can leave you screaming for an eternity Dreaming of an escape, A friend from a figment of dark a world from the abyss of my mind Set to fix all of your transgressions Every time you left, abandoned, stranded, forget me A human heart has a limit but It's only I who is left to blame Drifting beyond Aphelion Why must the loudest of Cries Go unheard Maybe You'll know why I want Thagirion to Answer my Masked Prayers For All My Pain Constraining Me Making my Saturnine Mind Climb to the Apex Just to Fall again Maybe You'll know why I want Thagirion to answer all of my masked prayers For All My Pain Everyone turning against me I can't keep living a lie like this Lost In Life When death is the only hope Nothing is left to stay But the Fear of being afraid Let me lose this Let me enter another world Drifting beyond Aphelion Why must the loudest of Cries Go unheard Maybe You'll know why I want Thagirion to Answer my Masked Prayers For All My Pain Constraining Me Making my Saturnine Mind Climb to the Apex Just to Fall again Maybe You'll know why I want Thagirion to answer all of my masked prayers For All My Pain Drifting beyond Aphelion Why must the loudest of Cries Go unheard Maybe You'll know why I want Thagirion to Answer my Masked Prayers For All My Pain Constraining Me Making my Saturnine Mind Climb to the Apex Just to Fall again Maybe You'll know why I want Thagirion to answer all of my masked prayers For All My Pain
She could hardly drag himself along,hovered between life and death, so frozen that her hands are insensible to any feeling and atrophied heart works only for the casual trade. Plucked at hair with rage as these morning habits die hard, spiting blood,residues of the night before. You toiled in vain because you think you've met her several times and your soul finally realized your ambitions. But she is the methadone girl. The cheap shoes worn out,trampled underfoot by the crowd, wasted by the long illness,languished from indifference. Dice with her life everyday,the perspective of sadness, gain nothing or something in her mind, watching you to keep your reputation free from all slurs The drainage happened at the age of eighteen only dent in her pride was forever. Fool her with promises,exchange arms and legs with money, skin burns easily so be an animal,defy the pressure-gauge. Rolling on souls again. Overawe us into the silence. The silence of methadone.
You're the dawn of despair and gloominess You're the sunset that discards my gladness You deceived me…you made me trek the road of calamity You grieve for me…you yearn for my sympathy… but I overlook your pity Horror strikes me, scorching away my destiny My confidence has slowly departed from me…so what should I do? Terror swallows me alive, now I'm begging to flee! My self-reliance has disregarded and fled from thee…now I'm crammed with woe Digest the emptiness that I feel deep inside Heed to what I'm about to announce to you… Digest the affliction that I brushed aside Hear what I'm about to warn you about…it's all true You deserted me…melt the isolation that has filled us with woe You brainwashed me…you tarnished my bliss You captivated me…now I have nowhere to go You terrorized me…you singed up my happiness You're the dawn of anguish and shame You're the midnight stars that burn with fame You betrayed me…you made me cut down my garden…shedding fertility You mourn for me…you long for my forgiveness… so I'm ready to accept your plea What is the code that will animate your presence? What is the code that will liquefy the ice of silence?
Too far by miles Thence too close to my heart Lots of stories to share with you With buckets of tears and a glass of smiles With myraid of unfulfilled wishes and one win over several busts I pretend if you were here As it is time I need your presence before April ends and month May begins For me with ocean of tears. I need to rest Am tired of being a living mortal Too much to squall and little of being a playing marionette With you I will find an existence of mine Please come back to your motherland As I pretend you to be here As it is already time that I need your shadow To see my own essence of life before April ends and month May begins For me with hell of curses and fears. I need to breathe Am exhaling smokes of being a corpse Too much of flames and so lean of being of the open sky With you can fly to the heaven Your presence here can make my wings spread As I already pretend you to be here To feel my own reliance I need your feathers to build my nest But when April ends and month May begins Without your presence I will be shedding my eminence. Note: This poem is dedicated to my friend Angshumala Goswami
To gain acceptability You let yourself in on crowd mentality With all this capacity And intrinsic ability You consciously decide the mortality Of your own capability You deny individuality And instead accept multiplicity All in search of false glory You toy with your own story You decide to change God's transcript Only to create your own flawed script Sooner or later we'll all face death Pretty soon you'll take your last breath At the thought of this truth, many fret The end of life is set You'll eventually join the bus And believe you me Its taking you nowhere near Jos The real question is if you're ready To meet with your maker all calm and steady With your eartlhly deeds worth it And surely his judgement non-cloudy Not that your feelings matter much Only God decides such I only pray heaven's gate you touch And on heaven's lawn you eventually stand On a day when many will land In the scorching heat of hell's sands Only to kiss the devil's hands………..
To My Dear... I hope everything is fine at your end Time is running and my heart is grieving As I count the remaining days... Just couple of months left. I lost you somewhere, I don't know where Though it was a short span But you gave me dose little memories Those I will cherish As I live rest of my life. I'm writing this letter Leaving you a note You will be remembered withal Love and praise...and a wish remains... Wherever you are, be happy forever. You came to my life as a red rose Blossomed one winter morning And I adored the redolence When the wind passed by I could still see you playing with the racket Holding it nonchalantly with a smile I could still hear you singing with the wordses Writhing your hands with the rhythm so mild. With the days succeeding We started to meet in between our busy time One day, two days followed by a week Slowly I started to walk along with your life. I still remember the evening I waited for you Hoping to greet my graceful time And there you came with a beautiful smile Even the noisy streets weakened As you came closer to mine. As days followed Little talks followed with long gossips Withal your bellylaughs and my pranks I still remember that X-mas day When you rushed along the streets Your first visit at my place. A horror flick afternoon, followed by a fun loaded evening I smiled as you smiled And I framed those memories... As I took a sip from my whiskey glass. Though we greeted the new year But January conveyed you with tears The friend who left you behind You held him tight With your memories so clear. Slowly you got hold of yourself Yet you implied yourself with your hidden tears Though you smiled, you jubilated Yet, somewhere you were seeking Those days you lived Once again to revive. Consequently you intimated with the reality of life And we briefed our life together Never to be apart Nothing I was worried then We shared every bit of our daily life. I became your eyes And I took an oath... Will never let you cry. You became my strength And you took an oath... You will walk with me...my entire life. Note: Continued to "A Letter Of The Lost Alphabets - II"
Drown me in your sorrow For words can bring no ease to this pain Let me catch the tears you swallow I will show you the power of the rain I don't want the fake silence, I don't want you buried deep inside yourself screaming Thrust your pain, and darkness upon me, allow your light to shine I will bury myself in your darkness, so you can finally stop dreaming Of the peace you so desperately ache for, and finally feel the sunshine Let go of the fear you hold within, allow me to remove it from you Spread your wings, take flight, let yourself embrace the feeling of finally being free Steal yourself away, my friend, and do all that you can do Steal yourself away my friend, and be all that you can be 'Cause no matter what I will always wish to be there for you To help lift you back into the sky, when the clouds threaten to push you back down I will always be on the lookout for you And make sure you never wear a frown Your happiness is all I want, yesterday, today…always and tomorrow So drown me in your sorrow, drown me in your sorrow
Pink! Under a blue tint, sitting in eight seats Me, plus six, minus one is my family Dust to dust, now tears to tears Only 50 short, hard and painful years Symbol of pink outlined in a basket Tisk for a tasket, twenty-three hundred dollar casket A gift to the world, God's newest baby Hell or heaven, there is no maybe Now life is gone, happy in a new home A soul to her body no longer belongs Light, pale pink lets cross it in a mink Never tie my strings in a knot, because that's what took you so to think But before you go, let us lace you with pearls And drip you with diamonds and make it aware to the world That Breast Cancer has no name, nor a face Just as a lump on your body doesn't deserve a permanent place Dedicated to Ms. Kimala Thomas
How can I comfort you Words seem so inadequate My heart feels full of sadness beyond bursting Your heart stretched beyond recognition This is a pain beyond imagination Yet there is hope You wake to a knowledge This is not just a sad ending Rather it is a triumph Many have lived long protracted lives They have seeked all manner of things Still they have not arrived at the gates of heaven Jordan's spirit like the river is wide and deep He reached the gates and was ushered in Angels rejoiced at his arrival This is not a sad fairy tale This is God's promise fully realized What the World sees as loss God turns to gain They see potential unrealized We know differently He is one who lived well He is one who is now living better His new dreams are beyond our limited imaginations Listen carefully to his quiet voice It travels on the wind Let your heart be fully restored He has not ended His spirit and new body are eternal Praise be to the Promise Keeper In our Sadness we know His plans are perfect Dedicated to my friend Pete, may your tears be converted to rejoicing, may your heart be fully restored in the knowledge of God's loving provision. Your Grandson's beautiful smile has been restored to him.
I seem, as I truly seem, not stating, what is, in my mind. Experiencing am I, of a, past moment. A moment, I just, can not leave behind. Remembering like it, was yesterday, again, to me, the past, seems so real. Becoming a part, of the moment, in the role, with the same emotions, that I feel. Away was I, from the familiar, upon a quest, to fight, for the free. The honor, of wearing, a soldier uniform, to defend, and annihilate, the enemy. Buddies beside me, in the commotion, us facing, the same, wrong time, and place. Tears coming down, my very eyes, as I now, can vividly see, his frighten face. Because for him, the end, was coming, as he, fought hard, during the whole attack. He then lie there, while us, his buddies, voraciously tried, to revive him entirely back. Back alive, he wasn't becoming, coming home, to those, whom loved, him all. My thoughts, and prayers, are with his family, to others, I've been, nothing but a brick wall. Me dealing, with the sadness, guilt, and anger, together in unison, and each, now and then. Finally realizing, by living, I shows him, love, of him, giving his life, from way, back when.
When I was little and would fall and hit my knee I would cry and you took care of me When I got older and fell in love that would end I would cry and you would be my friend Now I am the mother kissing knees And telling my sons bout the birds and bees But I am not sure if I am doing it right So I call you late at night And I cry God I don't know what to do And you tell me it is okay I trust you I am not sure if I can handle the next fall When I loss my brick wall So daddy please stay here I would cry and none would care I need you still so much each day So daddy please tell God to wait for a few more days
VERSE ONE: Christened as averred one Harriet Kuritsky on November 13th nineteen thirty five the youngest of four with only one brother whose exit from this world from a terminal illness she did not survive! The following emotions communicating heartfelt grief practically vanquished as like my existence turned a new leaf! A recurring abysmal grief stricken state still consumes my entire being of late these perpetual tears of sadness seem not to a-bate since the grim reaper brandished scythe signature sign of a deadlocked fate! Twas about 11:00 a.m. 2005 that third of May that our dearly beloved mother fought tooth and nail to keep death at bay (recounted by sisters who elected to remain on vigil that day) nonetheless rigor mortis upper hand brought a (supposed) painless and swift death to her diseased and emaciated riddled body gone lifeless and ashen gray! This only heir still misses his mom more than plaintive words can spell with his agonizingly pained heart and soul that rents asunder this psyche pell-mell no amount of weeping can quiet and quell! Cathartic for me to give you a posthumous ode conveyed in an easy to read poetic code to accept finality & permanent loss only retrievable from nostalgic memories identified as that childhood home and favorite abode! VERSE TWO: Her cremated ashes still remain sealed in the same nondescript box white, powdery and chalk like material devoid of any vestigial semblance to her once living and vibrant self that unique persona pulverized and vaporized (housed former svelte and tall Arthur Murray ball-room dance teacher a half century plus prior to demise which beauty, charm and grace quickly caught the attention of my father who courted and eventually proposed to this young flirt and tease of a gal) inert organic matter now represents sole residual embodiment reduced to dust and near nothingness former corporeal being of blood, bone and flesh weighing no more than a dozen hatch marks on the scale absence still bears down heavy like some millstone round the neck per the black hole void created by defeat with Grim Reaper toward this woman who helped birth and nurse me into manhood momma's only grown son still feels ripples of grievous sadness no matter the years of suppressed anger and rage in addition to emotional conflicts between us which invariably wrought unpleasant relationship and a legacy of discord writ large across the tapestry of my life!
I met a woman, fell in love She was a gift from above Soon she became my spouse We gathered things and set up house. Some things were new without a flaw Some were hand me downs from Ma and Paw For some we saved nickels in a can Some were bought on the installment plan. Children came – a total of four Two boys – two girls- no need for more We managed to provide room and board Did the best we could afford. We moved around from house to house On an adventure – me and my spouse Gathering things to which we would cling But we rarely got rid of anything. Tables, chairs, couches, and beds Cabinets and shelves taller than our heads Mugs, pictures, and bells we did collect Mementoes and heirlooms on which to reflect. A man gathers a lot in over fifty years And remembers many of them with tears Many a thing still fills my house But it's not a home without my spouse. She has a room in a retirement home Care is provided and she cannot roam I dreamed one day we would be old timers But I never figured on Alzheimer's. Now I have a house full of stuff Too many things - more than enough The time has come to downsize To an apartment in the high rise. My children came one by one Went through my stuff until they were done One takes this and another takes that And managed to do so without a spat. Giving things away is a lonely task My irritability I cannot mask Gathering things with my spouse Was more fun than cleaning out house.
Once in a while I meet a person whose eyes tell their story The story is like the sky reflection on the seas of glory The eyes are all the wonder of the world It sees the future, past, and present The eyes give us knowledge of the world and reflection The reflection of sadness and weakness of each creature The wonder of each individual being has a present To the world who has lots of false images To arise the moment of that one glance To follow the heart in romance Just the reflection that gather in your eyes of blue What a man and a woman should view Life is such a pain without stopping to see each eyes Its like roses you have to enjoy each passion in side When that moment collides with mind and heart Nothing in your soul can keep your love apart Join in the fun look in every eyes of a person beside With passion and romance I bet you, you would cry The luster of all the things to come A bounty of life long needs to be given by just the wonders of the eyes The blue seas reflects the different depths of our feelings And it should become revealing Come to your senses with ravaging hormones of lust The sea can take you and even the reflection in the eyes of the person The beauty is not held by one it is held by everyone Such looks with fear for no relief Is almost a dreadful part in our human nature Beware of what can happen when emotions are held Held to the core of an individual No such thing is kindness when you find yourself in the Sea Blue Eyes Calling in your soul by just looking With ignorance you play around with such futile emotion Gush away the fear and do not go insane with life so dear The grasp of the titans comes to reveal The evil within your heart is so obscenely noticed You want the sea and you want those eyes to look at you with wishes The rage in the heart are waves that cannot stop It pushes and pushes with no regret The heart falters and there is only one thing in your mind The idea of one soul to be with is the ocean The rifts that is trying to break to end the wants of desire Cannot be trusted in a human lier The beauty of man is destruction The beauty of women are commands The eyes of each does not matter in the sea Because all emotion and desire is given to those who are true Command of a person is just one thing The desire to destroy is another The Sea Blue Eyes will see no bother cause it bares it all Even the utmost desire To be continue.
All I am asking for is one kiss One sweet, sorrowful kiss Like the ones we used to share When we were young How my lips have missed your lips How my tongue has missed you tongue How I hunger, how I ache How I wake in a fever pitch And imagine myself back on those nights Those cold, frosty nights When we would huddle for warmth under your blankets When you would trail your fingers Up my stomach under my shirt Back when my skin was soft and naïve to your touch When you would press your body against my body Nuzzle me in the crook of my neck Back when we were so inexperienced When your lips just barely touched mine And mine just barely touched yours Back when things were still innocent between us Before we grew up and grew out Before we became awkward Before we were corrupted Now when I see you Foolish thoughts roll through my mind Of what could never be And I wish that I could have one last kiss To quiet my thoughts To satisfy my lust To end all kisses So I don't ever miss you again.
Thought that I would be alone Up in the skyline Thought that I would be lost Drown by the sea Together we're holding hands Gripping one another within the tidal waves Our time has stopped Fate has spoken Laughters, curiosities, plans and goals Reunions, hopes and loves Blur within the haze Abandoned in tragedy Landed to the new dimension Ushered by the prayers Don't cry, love... Just don't... We are walking to the land of Lord Keep strong my love... With faith... We still can see the same moon that we used to see As if we stand on the same base Though we are seperate in a distinct room Deep condolence for the victims of plane crash Air Asia qz 8501 may they rest in peace.
I'm not a criminal I've got a problem with alcohol, a murder was committed and I took the fall....... Blacked out and dont remember the events of the night before, but coming to in a pair of cuffs and the slamming of a cell door... The judge read off the charge that led to my arrest, He shook his head and said Son, you have failed at lifes big test.... A unanimous decision of guilty thats whay the juror read, a tear spilled down my face as I realized what was said.... I was sentenced to death by lethal ejection, they said I was a cause of societies infection..... My last few hours alive spent with my family brokened hearted, knowing it wouldn't be much longer before I'd be departed..... After my family was led away I was strapped to the gurney, the facts weren't even presented cause I sold out by my attorney,,,,, Once wheeled into the chamber they opened the blue curtian, and all the faces I seen had looks that were un-certian...... After the poison was injected my body started to convusle, and fifteen minutes later my body had no pulse..... As the preacher stood over me he said, Lord, what a mess, He should have been given a chance instead of being declared worthless......
Why must I feel so alone, I know you are right here, Why is my future so fogged, Yet I can see you clear. Why must I feel broken- dead, When you breathe in me life, Why even when I feel happy, I attract the knife. Why do I feel empty, When you fill me with such joy, People say I need a man, But you are not a boy. How can someone love so much, When they just hate themseves, Why do I feel so alive, When I here funeral bells. How can my heart be so broken, But mended by you, How can I trust anyone, I know our love is true.
I've been blessed enough To be protected Positive surroundings Never been rejected Never redirected No misdirection In my life to date No bad decisions That could've sealed my fate But my fortunate status Won't allow me to stall, Failing to see the world as it is Outside my four walls I can and will, Still Allow myself to feel The very factors, That force The faces of fear From those That often shed Agonizing tears From angst And ravaging years Tormented, By the hands of time Forced down, Forced out, Forced to the end of the line Enslaved, By an oppressed mind-set From a hope not yet, Seen Hope deferred Depressing things To the point of, "I dare not dream" Thus, It seems The band of healing Should start with me Beaming Intensity Baring Charity It's inherent That I help Him, her, You To be the blessing Towards a life anew For those who choose To live it So my life of privilege Should I not only accept, For self But for the world, To be well Therefore, My benefits Should outpour To the outcries To the extent That opportunity extends Starting, A non-stop trend
Left behind and torn within tears of pain and alone at the end without my family or a friend Now I have to start all over again Each day is a struggle to go on and no matter what I always have to be strong I dont think life is fare but thats how it is when they dont care I gotta do everything I can because noone offers me a helping hand but on my own I have to stand
Yes, she loves art. She craves for the flow of the brush, on her broken canvas, it fell apart. No one knows though, so hush. She likes to imagine her razor as the brush. Herself as the canvas, where she makes her art. When she feels depressed or something such, she paints her picture, to cover up her broken heart. The blood rushes down her skin, as her tears fall down her face. She wishes she could leave the life she is in, and go to a different place. She stopped using her wrists, for everyone saw. So she used her thighs, she couldn't resist. The artwork is still raw. She liked her scars... It showed something to her, that maybe she lost the battle, but not the war. That is what she inferred. Her best friend and her lover are far away from her reach. She fears that it is over... She feels sour like a peach. Her dear best friend moved states away. Her dear lover has no way to contact her. Please, make the pain go away... She says as she strokes her paintbrush against her. Everyone found out about her secret, and made it into some big deal. She wishes they all could just forget, since they acted like it wasn't real. They don't understand! They keep asking the same questions over and over. "Why did you do that to your hand?" "You really should recover." "No. I don't want recovery." She thinks to herself. "I don't even have bravery to accept help." "Get away from me. I don't need this." No one seems to see that the cuts to her feel like bliss. She goes to her room and isolates herself. Goes on her phone to contact her best friend. This friend really knows how to help... She's been there since beginning to end. "Oh, if only she was here. If only she didn't leave. This was all my fault, just as I feared. She knows that's what I believe..." She thinks this a lot, that everything is her fault. She hates that she got caught, now... it's a shame if she fell apart. She hides everything, doesn't want to talk about it. That's her routine, just keep quiet. She returns to the brush, paints her artwork. Be quiet, shush. This takes a lot of work.
As more perverse lifestyles are glamorized on t.v. I wonder what kind of country this is going to be? You'll often find on the news interviews of various kinds… Entertaining more garbage to "dump" into our minds! The garbage and filth they're often promoting…. They think this same kind of life, I should be "enjoying?" There's something very wrong with this picture! I don't need the news to give me a "moral lecture!" This may sound old fashioned and absurd… It's time we all come back and obey God's word! It's the word of God! Not the news, we need for instruction! Without God's truth in us, we're headed for destruction! God still loves you very much! And he hasn't forgot… You're always on his mind, and his thoughts! He's what you need to focus your attention and depend on! He is someone who's faithful, and you can count on! Won't you walk away, and leave the filth behind you? And allow God's love and mercy to reach out and find you? He will never disappoint you! With a brand new way of living! An abundant life with peace and joy…. Is what he's giving!

When love was tortured She was silent. She was repeating words in mind. Her eyes were looking up at heaven, And there was no tears sign. When love was being murdered She was silent. She was reminding herself of All the moments when She was smiling, When happiness was real for her. There was no pain. When the blood appeared, and Her last breath was gone, Thunderstorm and rain came out From heaven, Darkness was called to go back to earth. God cursed people and said: "You will pay for your sin forever Without understanding You will feel nothing Believing it is real".
You were small and still inside, Now you never will come out. Even though i never got to know you, I still love you with all my heart. There are many things i wanted to teach you, so many things i wanted you to see. But i know you are in a place that will always be beautiful, You will always stay young. You will have your sister to guide you there, My family is always there to protect you no matter what. I hope you are happy cordillia where ever you are, I am happy knowing you will never experience heartache. You will never experience the lies people will tell, You are protected. you are loved. You will always be part of me and your dad. Although i wish i could hold you in my arms, But until we do see eye to eye. you are in my heart.
Your character deceives me Always misleads me One minute I'm your friend The next minute I'm your foe The thought of you Makes my liver quiver My heart shivers. You were my confidant Now I'm your adversary We had a good friendship Now you're not even worth, being an associate I wanna say goodbye…but I can't I'll never forget you The gleeful person you were And the impudent creature you have become. 08/15/05
Dana It's just like I am watching you, watching you fall apart, I see you standing in the cold, eclipsed within the dark. I feel so trapped behind this glass, I cannot warm your soul, I cry and try to save you, from the blank and blackened hole. The marks upon your arms, the marks upon your heart, I wish that I could heal them but, Love, your just too far. You say that your okay, You say that your alright, but you do not believe these words, I swear we'll win this fight! You say to just let go, that you've found the way out, I beg and plead it's hard to lose a big part of your heart. Tonight I say goodbye, but soon shall say hello, As soon as you go, I do to, Thats just the way it goes. Love, Chelsea *~Always hold on, Never let go~*
You're degrading yourself You're only digging deeper This grave you've made for yourself You're your own tormentor Why don't you help yourself? Climb out of this hole Stop hurting yourself Fix your sad soul Look at this mess you've made Was it really worth The pain you payed Just for such A vapid Touch One more One more touch Dig up stupid Don't try and right the wrong The damage is done Silence the song You can't run From a list so long The eyes are watching The diverse Became the same Why can't I keep my hands from latching Onto what was never mine? Look at this mess you've made Was it really worth The pain you payed Just for such A vapid Touch One more One more touch Dig up stupid Dig up
i saw what you did in your life but why forget the good times in life and go through the bad ones it will always be strange to me to see you like this till the day turns to night i will always be by your side.
To watch you leave, watch you walk out Hurt so much and filled me with tremendous doubt That we were every truly friends It was as if you really didn't care in the end This life, so full of secrets and lies I never understood any of it…and you walk away, back turned away from the silent cries My heart wrenches with unmendable grief Why did you ever come around! Why must I hold on to this false belief That you ever cared when you really did not Your lies and secrets, so full of raging hate, I tried to love you…I tried to show you a friend all for naught. I do not understand…and I never will because you will not allow me too I want to understand…I want to help you and be here for you But all you do is push me aside…push me away Bury me in silence, stab me with your misery…but still I wish you to stay But you do not, you still leave, still walk out that door And I fall…hard to the unforgiving cold, hard floor Weeping bitterly tears of repressed sorrow and pain This empty void growing, tearing me from the inside…but the smiles I still feign I still walk this crooked path that leads to nowhere Wondering if maybe…just maybe I will find you here Because you've stolen into my battered heart and made me care And now I cannot let you go…not ever…I wouldn't dare Yet you still do not care about the hurt…the tears You still just walk away, continuing to spreading your fears And she goes with you You knew that she would and you allowed her to
You allowed her to abandon what has all become this shattered group Nothing but a repeating, battered loop Of anger and torment And she still follows you and would to the end of the earth without thought of me or him We are nothing in your twisted version of the world, everything you do based on a whim Except when it comes to her, she is your everything And you are her everything And we, me and him, are the nothings The nothings that inhabit the space and air around Worthless, more so than the ground That you stomp on; and hidden deep inside Where all the monsters and demons reside, And I DAMN you for dragging her down with you To the depths of nothing, where you run and hide, because it's all you ever do And I DAMN you, because you take her from me And it shows just home much, I really mean nothing…to you or to her…but I'll never be free I will never escape this bottomless hole of hopeless sorrow I have placed myself in, because I will always want you and her, today, yesterday, and tomorrow It will not matter I will not, and he will not We will never matter, we will only be forgot She follows you, and I watch, my heart ripping from my chest I cannot take anymore, this abandonment bringing me, to my final rest.
A young homeless child Looking for a home but finds none. On my first day at school the mother's not around To comfort me when I'm down-right scared An innocent child of seventeen I find myself locked up in a placement An innocent child now afraid of time Will I forget my goals and dreams? I go to Maryhurst And meet people who care I learn about peer pressure and much more Now comes the time To break through..... The Fear

An angel. I thought I saw an angel today when I was remembering you. You are in my waking day, I dream its just me and you. When I go and walk a while I think your by my side And then I remember the truth of it all and that you had to die. I don't know why im so confused They say death is part of life But you were so little my love You had not lived your life. They say you have gone to heaven And that you are a star But I don't believe them, not at all I just know that you are far I hope one day I will see you again And we will smile and laugh and dance And I wait with anticipation for the day That I will get another chance. I love you
I wake up in the morning, The smell of your perfume lingering on my skin, I roll over to see if your body still lay there, & I realize everything I loved vanished. I just have these images and scents stuck in my head, I have everything you ever gave me packed away, I look through it again and again each day. Trying to piece the puzzle together, & figure out why we drifted apart. I want to know if you still think about me like I think about you, I want to know if you still have the things I made and gave to you. I just wish I could stop smelling you, Stop thinking about you, Just everything about you brings me to my knees, & I am begging you please, Please just let me forget you. I wake up the next morning and realize, Everything about you was lies.
Moonlight shines down on my cold, pale face I am alone, her raven calling, I am disgrace Falling as the willows weep, I hold her in my arms as she struggles to breathe Rosaline, my one love divine. You are sacred You are mine Her voice rising above the water Beautiful Rosaline sang silently to me The whispers trailing off her fingers, as she faded into the darkness My beautiful angel has vanished again Goodbye my Beautiful Rosaline. Happened that Grim reckless day when the shadows began to play Beauty detonated in my trust No more, no more will there ever be a witch so grand, as to bring back my Beloved Rosaline Sorrow cuts it's way into my heart It is the locked key, the one you keep Her voice rising above the water Beautiful Rosaline sang silently to me The whispers trailing off her fingers, as she faded into the darkness My beautiful angel has vanished again Goodbye my Beautiful Rosaline So leaving this Tragic scene I vanished from Rosaline's sight Nevermore will there ever be a witch so grand, as to bring back my Beloved Rosaline Her voice rising above the water Beautiful Rosaline sang silently to me The whispers trailing off her fingers, as she faded into the darkness My beautiful angel has vanished again Goodbye my Beautiful Rosaline. Enchanting she sang to me, in the everlasting light of peace My beautiful siren walks again Goodnight my Beautiful Rosaline
It just took one day To grab our attention There's not much to say But lots of reflection. The airplanes they flew Wreaking havoc on all No one had a clue That the towers would fall. Such cowards with hate They claimed so many lives On that terrible date Left husbands without wives. So many were lost Our sisters and brothers Their lives were the cost Plus fathers and mothers. Many stood with awe They were asking why For what they just saw Coming out of the sky. Such terror and fear And so quickly they hit The end may be here Should I run, stand or sit? The heroes did save As many as they could For their lives they gave Not knowing that they would. People hung their flags Keeping their families near Many body bags This horror wasn't clear. Honoring that morn Our eyes begin to fill The world was torn America stood still.
(Triolet) ~Tribute to "Hymn to the Night" By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow~ He heard sounds of sorrow and delight. Swept from marble vestments of halls. Felt her presence compelled the light. He heard sounds of sorrow and delight. Spelt at her feet old'n rhymes so bright. And layer'd stars pieced her celestial walls. He heard sounds of sorrow and delight. Swept from marble vestments of halls.
Something feels wrong – the atmosphere Feels dry upon my skin I remember the summertime and its blessed breeze – it kept On flowing… blowing… bestowing… jovial love for the renewal of your heart… Once bleeding… Beating… from deep within Accept me For who I am… Accept me… Do you ever ponder About the good times We've shared? Have you Erased it From your mind Forever? I wish You could rise like the sun when the dawn comes rolling in The fog Surrounds us… With gloominess There's no need To feel my stress Remain Stress-free For eternity Dread Is caressing your soul Don't let it DEVOUR YOU. YOUR. Life. Is. Meaningful. Believe me… Please… Keep it at ease… Cast away the sorrow Flick it off into space I'll be there To run the race With you So wipe away The blue liquid… blinding your eyes DON'T. Be. Afraid… Don't be burdened By the shame Sway with me In the wind… Where peace Grows on and on and on… Forever – Until the demise Of the dawn Let the clouds Drift away And sleep without Disturbance… And don't forget To pray for The blessed breeze Let me help you Track down the worries That try to BREAK. YOU. Don't let it get to you No matter what Your body is warm Your eyes glisten And reflect Fascinating light. Shimmering With All Of Its Might. Something feels right… AT LAST!
Sometimes even the strongest must fall You just have to know when to let go of it all The world is too big for one person to save Against all the horrors and truths she must brave It's not giving up or even letting go The burdens too great, too deep are the woes Her life in turmoil, the pit of despair Wanton destruction her soul is now bare Without cover or shelter, no warmth to spare It's the ones that she loves that don't even care She fought with courage but did not prevail With all that's against her, how could she not fail? The light has now vanished; it is gone from her sight Her hope is now failing and so is her might She gave up everything, her life and her heart Her will and her strength from the very start The world that we live in is simply not just The greed that rules us is controlled by our lust She knows what to do and to do as she must To leave this world and the blood in the dust
Dilapidated and faded, Together they made it. A house to a home, If only she had known... The darkness that lurks and dwells deep within Consuming, confusing and Consoling his sin. The secrets he hides are not harmless, In fact, The secrets he harbors are clues to his past. Dark and shamed, he keeps them bottled up Never popping the top to see what comes up. He closes his eyes and pretends it's not real, Consumes drink after drink 'til he can no longer feel. But she has no idea of the monster he hides, Her friends warned her.Well, at least they tried... But when you're young and 'in love' 'Love is blind' And her belief always was, 'True love is hard to find' So she smiled and ignored them, played off their words, Thinking to herself," Him..? A danger.. how absurd..." Together they lived in their 'love' filled home, The monster in him, becoming more tempted to roam, He fought to keep it buried deep, Night after night, alone, he'd weep... 'Til finally one day she confronted him, Asked him about the words her friends had spoken. " Beat his last girlfriend until she could no longer breathe.." "Then he bathed in her blood as he watched her chest heave...." That's what the girls had told her... And after she mentioned it... she seen his anger... His blue eyes seemed to glow an eerie shade of red, Her heart stopped as she seen him, her soul filled with dread. He raised his hand and struck her face... "You let the monster out now! enjoy HIS face! " She will never be seen again... The news just says..."Both vanished... without a trace..."
Seven years have passed since first I married him Whence he succombed his bride Yet when I told him of babe we'd due it felt our love just withered up and died For the man he changed, no, the child we had not planned Pushed me around until to others ashamed I lied I'd fallen, or bumped myself again, backed him up, supported him, everything denied. When babe was born, I thought we'd learn to love Try to make things work together with pride But now cut off from all my friends in time, it's nursing I only now that I must bide. Although I raise our child I am so sad, my life has stopped, when they play up I fret that you will chide and fear that you'll know not of when to stop Frightened, huddled close we rock, we hide. Once grown up, at school a freedom found, whilst you're at work – your daily grind. Lucky new friend we find to guide us back to safety relieved, released. Apart, I know head high that I had tried.
Walking through the guarded gate and onto my children's school grounds, the impact of the 80mm and 120mm mortars crashing to earth caused me to pause. When you couple this with the repetitive thrumming of the 50 caliber machine gun and the acoustics on the hill top, you feel as if you're in a combat zone. The deep reverberating pulses that the blast of the weaponry left in my chest, the slight ringing in my ears, the un-worldly feeling that something was going to land near me, gave me that very realistic feeling. Yet the children ran to and fro, laughing, playing; seeming oblivious to the horror that those sounds bring to our enemies. I am not sure if they even hear them, even think of them; are even aware of the violence of the world around them. To them and the other family members of this military community, they hear the sound of freedom. They hear the impact of dominance in a world where, (to them) they believe our nation cannot, will not experience defeat. Each and every impact is knowledge that their loved ones, (their Soldiers) the fathers, mothers, sisters and brothers will live in absolution of the sin that they have or will in the future commit in their country's name. Thus leaving the arguable question out on the table, is it a sin? Will they go to hell? It is the disobedience of one of the commandments! Yet without hesitation we will pull the trigger and thank god that we live to see our loved ones again. To that man or woman who walks onto their children's school ground, unguarded. To the children who do not run to and fro, frolicking, laughing, and playing; to all who hear the impact of a mortar or the repetitive thrumming of the 50 cal. Where the acoustics are resounding off the cement buildings of your home and the laughter turns to horror, the screams turn to nightmare; where going to school is a threat to life. I am sorry, so sorry that the world sees even one human, one child, lover, mother, father, sister, or brother; I am sorry they see us as so insignificant as to place you/us in harm's way. I apologize that they/we lift foot to step upon the masses. Be it a terrorist, a misguided bomb, or the rage of a stressed out soldier who takes innocent life because they believe it is right. We are all significant, we are relevant and to all… Should peace ever come at last…? I pray it lasts until our very last march…
falling falling down forever i seek help from thee but over your sholder you tell me never my heart is unhappy my mind tells me no because there are so many places we have yet to go crying crying tears galore falling to the cold hard floor pain the emotion that drives many mad tell me please tell me when did this go so bad?
I wish I could Go back to being five. When life was easier And every thing was ABC's and one two three's. Now I'm older Constantly Getting caught up Into lies and deceit. Little did I know That even the sweet ones Will come and go. And I hold on To where I don't belong. Reaching out for a hand That isn't there. Resting my head In the depths of despair. 03/01/09
See the star; there, to the north The third, shimmering brightest as if An entire constilation's worth of glow Is harbored in it's singularity. Make a wish darling; Your fingers on the small of my back Your breath, warm, a candy coloured sash, Accross my back.
What will be Will be! I know of this, first hand Your life was taken away So abruptly! I will Never forget That day! Till the day My body dies And I am with you, again! "How was I to prepare myself?" With That kind of Life changing, event! You Didn't warn me You Were permanently leaving! I hope You know How much "I love you" Know You will never be forgotten! I don't know What Has got into me! Consciously I feel you Inside me I see images Of your face So clearly! Am I crazy To believe in this, my love? "Are you still with me?" "Is my imagination Playing cruel tricks Running rampant As I talk with you As if You were by my side, right now In my heart and mind Your face etched Imprinted Like a blue print That never fades Your foot prints Still remain, beside me My heart beats Eternally Trying to make sense of everything! Forgive me, my love For being so strong in my feeling For it has been a long time Since I lost you, my friend Something I haven't Quite Got over! My heart Having A mind of its own Aching To be with you, still! To see you To smell you To touch you To taste you One Last time! I want to say "Goodbye" Once and for all! As We have Brought out The best and worst In each other Rivers run deep When it comes to you and me! We have had our fair share of fights and arguments Stubborn disagreements All of them Meaningless Now You cease to exist! I miss your lingering touches Your hand, stroking my face Your big, blue eyes Looking into mine Your warm lips Your rough, unshaven face The way you Passionately Kiss me While We make love, till dawn I miss All those nights You kept me Safe and warm! I miss Your Loving embrace I miss Your Reassurance! "Am I ever going to feel the same, with another?" Just As I felt In your arms, my love? How Do I let you go? How Do I set myself, free? I am ready To love, again! With 'Our eternal love' Supporting And Guiding me Especially In times, like these!
When will this stop, how much longer do I have to take all your bull, It seems like everything I do is not good enough for you. I'm tiered of falling asleep at night covered in my own tears, I'm tiered of being your doormat, your one and only that you take out all your anger. When will all this stop? I am running out of words to make it all better. Only if you can feel what I feel. You would die already if you walked through what I walked through. I'm not giving up cause that's just who I am. I'll fight, unlike you give up and throw it all away. So I'm fighting now, and there ain't *****you can do to stop me. The beast is released, get ready for a nightmare you only dreamt of. You won't see me the same ever again. I'm dead to you, you can't call means tour own anymore. If someone will ask me if I no you, I'll deny it with a passion.
Alone you walk? Is that what you claim? Maybe it's you who's left it this way? I've seen pen to paper write the deepest of thoughts and the darkest of secrets It's been too long since our hearts did beat a bliss filled sense of numbness yet we find it only in ignorance I'll walk alone, yes all alone but only to see you walk hand in hand in another's embrace So allow me to take your lonely path and I'll smile as I give you away
Twenty stars now in the sky... much too young to say "Goodbye," your lives we will not forget, your dreams will live--no regret. Our tears are for what's been done-- a man killing with a gun; we cry because you are gone, that pain will go on and on. Your families will miss you, our nation will miss you too; the sadness will not relent for lives too young to be spent. You are in a better place-- where love has infinite space, God will wrap you in His care... just like your own teddy bear.
Look back on the war All that corruption Caused by a world, A world of destruction All the men Who gave their lives And left their home Their families, their wives Hear the guns Trilling out death And through their helmets All smell is their breath. Into the muddy trenches again Their retreat, their haven With rats running over the dead And flying over head is a lone raven At the crack of dawn The brave soldier awake To the cry of guns Enemies collecting every life they can take They are everywhere All their spies Your friends, your neighbours With evil in their eyes Watch your mouth Watch your back If you do You'll remain intact No real funeral Only a shallow grave On the battlefield For one so brave And what of the families They left behind To do good For all mankind Eventually we won the war But at what cost? For now we wear a poppy To signify the ones we lost.
At the beginning it was all so great, but now i am walking away from this state. I loved ever moment that we spent together, I thought we would go on like that forever. But i am sorry to say that you have torn my heart apart, I was praying on my hands and knees from the start. Praying so that this would not happen, but it happened and it ain't stopping. I beet my self in the chest now for letting this go so far, I wish i could just forget this all to remove this scar. The scar that you left on my soul is way too deep, everything poring out of it is nasty and smells so creep. I know that people say to "Forgive and Forget", but i can do only one thing, and its pore it out without a fit. So i am done with this hell people call life, i am on the edge of this earth waiting to survive. Dedicated to the one that broke my heart. No names will be spoken.
Sometimes you seem to be the person, I once knew and fell in love with, And sometimes you just seem to appear, To be a perfectly stranger to me. Which Causes me to wonder, If I should be here or not, Because it makes me wonder, If this thing we have is really meant to be. In your heart and mind, You never see what is wrong, Cause you only see the green pasture, Instead of the thickets and thorns, Our relationship will never get any better, If things don't change, And we both work on clearing out the painful parts, Because it will keep us both cut up, with hearts that are torn. Sometimes I really wonder if you, Want this to work out or not, Cause you say one thing but, Your heart isn't really in this, Like it used to be, And hasn't for a really long time, Which brings me back to the question, If this is meant to be?
On that day we were all the same, we didn't know there faces, we didn't know there names. There voices we heard crying all around the world, someones loving father, someones little girl. On that day we were called to lead a better life, for that someones father, for that someones wife. The list of souls read from above before it came below why it was and why it is the answer no one knows. Through the pain we have learned lessons great and small, life, love, and happiness are precious cherish them all. With grace we all go on, but never will we forget that all of these beautiful things can fade so very quick. On that day we wondered, on that day we cryed, on that day we asked ourselves what kind of man am I? Mothers held there children for so long and oh so tight, why did these people have to go this was not there fight. We hope and pray for all those names, and the ones they left behind they gave their life for a question the answer we must find. William J. Harty
The night has befallen me Rescue me, unchain me Sacred Lorelei Bleeding a passion of royalty Forever I'll follow your Argentine cloak with the most deadly pacts beautiful Witch Sacred Lorelei Tell me did the ravens Hear my cry My misery's plea Sacred Lorelei Was this all just upon a dream Lucidity becoming reality of my Sacred Lorelei A fiat of darkly desire from a most beautiful witch unchaining the burden of my misery All for my Sacred Lorelei
~A tribute to "The Slave's Dream" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow~ One night the slave had a nice dream. And in the dream he was just free. He heard sounds of freedom's bold scream. One night the slave had a nice dream. And saw the light of liberty's gleam. No more felt flesh by whips just bleed. One night the slave had a nice dream. And in the dream he was just free.
April Admitting that I don't Still care even though it's not fair to be without everything that made me exactly what it was to feel what it was to be real and now I don't care anymore Like the hands on a clock change Arms roll loose and free Never knowing what to grab Or to even believe in me To catch a fall from a distance Even though it's right next to me You still can't believe I'd be there for every instance Rollin like eyes on a face too bad the smile's fake showing mistakes never seeing through to the truth but the words can't lie when it makes the features turn, to a painful time Cause the thought remains Of how it's never the same How I changed my ways In these turbulent days I can't face now what's in store Cause there's always gonna be that much more Waiting, and hiding, Behind every curve Like the moonlight Sitting on the edge of your nerves Shattering hopes and dreams Misleading And revealing what's not anymore When the light shines green its just to deceive Even though it's against Everything you've seen It's dark Inside the heart Filled with stains from yesterday's rain Leaving what's left in the distance And never feeling what's real anymore Try to look past the stage, of the rage Knowing full well that In this world we dig our own graves Take me, I can not fight myself Stretching, a life's worth is just too much Saddening, to run from my old self Causing, a stigma in my eyes You hear a chime Lost in age, A match to a time Before May When everything was safe Take everything with a grain of salt cause In the end it's no one's fault Like assault On a memory fading in the wind No matter what it's still a sin Just roll with the punches kid It'll all turn round in the end
helplessly he stumbled through the door holding his bloody chest Mother gazed into her fourteen year old eyes and just knew that he was up to his old antics of gang banging Yelling and cursing did nothing to wake this kid up Mother's tears flooded like an open gate she wondered where she went wrong raising him for he had the best of everything a home a job an education anything he wanted or needed was right at his fingertips maybe having only one parent in the household or just not enough discipline now she stands helplessly over her young sons lifeless body lying on the kitchen floor in a pool of blood all that she could do now was to pick up the phone and call the police and the morgue Tribute To Children
These gentle clouds move without hesitation over the glow of my understanding. Watching without eyes listening without ears they dance to the song of the humble breeze. Elegant birds of white follow underneath the night skys there feathers reflect the natural light painting a masterpiece with there luminous wings. As I lay here forgeting time I watch this beauty and learn to appreciate but never do I desacrate my friend's true work of art. Sweet dreams dreamer....
So many times, I have trusted the Lord… Even though many things in life I couldn't afford. So many times, I would run to Jesus in times of despair. Looking for someone to listen. Someone to care… So many times, I would tell God, I'll live for him… Only to be "tripped up" by another sin. So many times I've grumbled and complained… Bitterness and unhappiness have been "substained…" So many times, I've tried to do my best. Only to find myself, once again in a mess! So many times, Jesus has been there to listen… His blessings in my life is what I've been missin'! So many times, I've read God's word throughout. And scripture tells me that God is what life is all about! So many times, I've refused to answer when Jesus calls… Yet my life seems to be "going over the waterfalls…" This time… I'm going to let Christ "heal my wounded spirit " And accept mercy and love… He's willing to give it! This time… I need so much more of him, and a lot less of me. For I once was so blind. But now… I can SEE! This time…. I'll allow Jesus to be the Lord of my life too… And honestly tell him; "Dear Jesus… I sure LOVE YOU!" This time… I will follow him and seek to do his will… His joy and peace… In my life… He shall fulfill! This time… I am so thankful for this decision I made. There's nothing in this world, for Christ… I would ever trade! By Jim Pemberton 01/06/11
So frigid was her immaculate body Her last second in screams is all I can see Love's revenge was my guilt With you I'd rather let you die with Bound hands Without you, Marie, like the psychopath's dream Death is all that I can see; All that could redeem Did anyone ask Did anyone recall The sweet taste of the poison The swift slash of the knife he penetration of the lead The pain of her decaying heart I can hear it's bellowing cries But why can't you, Marie, Hear my paranoid eulogies Is the coffin too deep? Was it so hard to solve Was it so hard to see That I strangled her so easily My nails piercing her comely skin Blood dripping like the pomegranate I crushed with the shovel I shattered her shins The knife to slight her wrists Didn't you see I did it all The only witness Couldn't say Is the coffin too deep? The pain of her decaying hear tI can hear it's bellowing cries But why can't you, Marie, Hear my paranoid eulogies Is the coffin too deep? Marie I cant stay Earth is to cruel when your coffin is to deep Forever in death and in death alone The pain of her decaying heart I can hear it's bellowing cries But why can't you, Marie, Hear my paranoid eulogies Is the coffin too deep?
Guilty As Charged? There was a woman caught in an adulterous act. Her accusers came after her with all of the "facts…" She came to Jesus. .. With a heart-felt plea. "Master…." "Have mercy on someone like me!" Jesus looked at her as she wept and cried. So many other things she had already tried. Coming to Jesus… She felt scared and alone… Jesus told her accusers; "You without sin." "Throw the first stone." One by one… They dropped the stones and fled. Rather than face the truth… They ran away instead… Jesus told the woman; "Your forgiven." "Go and sin no more…" She was the meaning of what God's grace was meant for. If you're caught in a situation, with "no way out…" This is what the meaning of salvation is all about! Any "accusers" you may have, will quickly run and hide. When to Jesus you come… And have him "on your side…" Allow the master to cleanse your life this very hour… And experience the love of his life-changing power! He'll take you in with his arms wide open. "You're forgiven!" Will be the lovely words spoken! Be "caught up" in the savior's redeeming grace… He'll give you hope and put a smile on your face!

Sweltering tears flow as resounding bullets echo Dressed in a neatly pressed uniform, polished boots and a distinctive hat Bright metals adorn the solitary cloth worn like that of an aristocrat Large stones stand on all sides in military solute Flags wave wildly for this star-studded tribute Brave words drift softly from mouths of those gathered around as another soldier's coffin is flawlessly lowered into the ground
Forever, will I die for you Forever, will I love you I will love you forever It may take that long Before you finally stare right into me And release me from this prison I've made and lost the key to It's hanging around your neck, love While I hear you crying in your sleep again I wrap you in my arms And pray you feel me there again It will be okay I'll always be here, my sweet I'll never leave Years now, since you saw me last You hold your reasons in your hand Too many, though not enough Gently, I come behind you And kiss your neck Whisper nothing But surely it's enough As you drop your reasons to the floor Quickly stand and turn I know you don't see me Until you fly into my arms Tears screaming from your heart Words so lovingly hateful I was right here I'm still right here I'll never leave Please, believe All I have, everything I am Was right here, waiting for you To see my light and wash ashore Please, don't turn away again Let's just stay here together Forever tangled up in Love
Finally I can let you go, Why keep u? You don't deserve me, You never did. Always using me, Used me for what you want, Which was anything. You wasn't fair, but hey life isn't fair right? You was there for me in the beginning, but u grew from me, I was there for you, Through every problem we had, I comforted you, Gave you encouraging words, Everything I did was out of love, It was my duty as a spouse to you, But u hurted me, Forgetting about my pain, You always wanted things your way, Going through for three years, You wouldn't imagine the stress, The pain, The deceit i went through, Trying to forget my past, I was loving you, But u said It wasn't enough, And you sure didn't care to help, You always thought about your needs, Your life that included me as a comforter, Not a lover, So think about you now, Go with whoever, Forget our engagement, Forget we ever met, Because I am going places, Places that you would imagine. Woooooo! Finally I am free!!!

She. She, remains just out of focus, an elusive portrait, etched in the corner of the mind's eye. she, sometimes strays into view, a blurred mirage, of burnished words cast in indelible dye. she, steals fragments of each day, a welcome thief, of emotions left in some dusty space. she, scatters my poems in the breeze, an invited spell, that vanishes into the wind without a trace. she, renders me mute and so often blind, the wild dreamer, a seeder of impossible thoughts in the mind. she, brings the elements of nature to me, a gentle healer, she unfolds my thoughts setting them free. she, comes and goes as she chooses, an untamed spirit, soothing the very place that she bruises. she, rouses me in nights of empty slumber, a murmured breath, brushing my cheeks with kisses too many to number. she, remains to me the enigmatic one, a burning riddle, yet she stays with me as each torturous day is done. she, my heart knows not why she stays, my consistent constant, filling up my nights and consoling my days. she, deserves so much more from fate, the truest soul, she loves too much and knows not how to hate. she, arrives again tonight as I lie awake, a thoughtful shield, my coat of armour in a world far too fake. she, stays with me and within me stays still, the true one, and to dwell deep in my soul is where she always will. she, from whose cup I have so greedily drank, a giver of life, I have not the words with which to her wholly thank. she, knows how desolate a world this can be, my sustainer of hope, and of life and of breath is what she will always be.
There she is the false image standing quietly She is just standing looking at a beautiful flower She notices her passion of earthy desire Something is happening she burst into the sun I look up as her hands grasp my face Her sea blue eyes gazed at me Her warm hand and then a bright light blinded me I went down on my knees and cried The salty water dropped on to the ground I live by the ocean so deep I do not know how to swim By the thought of a beautiful look That made me shake With fear in my head I saw those Sea Blue Eyes I cannot restrain myself she burst into the sun What is going on is it just the feeling of being left behind She was a desire and now I have none Driving nuts and insane what will I do Believing such a image is a dream I walk on the sand by the ocean with flowers in my hand Raising it to the sky and trying my best to lure her The image came close It pulled me into the ocean I was soaked What a lonely human being I am I grope the sky with such desire I look pitiful and look anguished What horrible feeling I have to pull the beauty that is nature down The wind blew one day the image once more appeared A young woman standing beside a flower with deep Sea Blue Eyes Looked at me a glance of hope and happiness came I reached for her and all of a sudden I fell into a deep sleep Months past they had told me that I jump off a cliff They explained that the flower patch was by it I realize heaven and earth cannot be reached with out a sacrifice With meaningless thoughts I would wonder of to the cliff area To see the ocean were it meets and ends I was told a story long ago that the feelings of the ocean can seep into your soul The trend of this story came shortly after some deaths I was fooled the lady with the Sea Blue Eyes can manipulate anyone Ladies and men, she is an illusion of the utmost desire Blaming everyone human kind knowing they are lyres The ghostly images that creeps everyone is oneself Desire falls upon those who are lonely Believe of the unnatural becomes science The Sea Blue Eyes is no lie cause they have been taking souls Through century they have been taking souls for tolls I stood once again near the ocean reaching to the sky Lonely I was ready to disappear One day she not the lady of the sea it was the one I knew I was blessed that day she embrace me I then fell into a slumber of bliss and desire Now I just hear voices and I am paralyze down A disappointment I was fooled once more by the Sea Blue Eyes To be continue.
Stuck in this body My mind starts to think And examine the possibilties The possibilty That I am alone The possibility That I am hated The possibility No one cares never does my mnd Examine the possibility That I can be loved
[THE DANCER] The shattered glass, in a million pieces. The blood spilled on the floor. She never lived, she never was. All the pain, all the disdain... she never was one for tolerance. Alone she dances. Those shattered pieces mean her no harm, it was not her fault... She's just dancing. Don't think It hurts. You'll never know the hurt of complete isolation. She doesn't even know, she just keeps dancing. Beautiful Graceful Lost Broken. In her mind she lives, she loves she knows she is. For her, the music never stops, she just keeps dancing... Beautiful Graceful Alive. The pain never reaches her, not when she's dancing. She knows no loneliness, she knows not what it is to cry, to hate, to fear. She just dances. But no, not even she can escape reality. The music stops. She falls. The shattered glass pierces her, Hate, Loneliness, Darkness, Pain, Fear, Anger, Jealousy, Self-Loathing... She Feels.

Sh, sh, close your eyes, silent night broken by your painful cries. Your heart is broken, I can tell; it's okay, for mine is as well. Don't ever wonder why or how, just know mommy's with the angel's now. The blood is nothing, mommy just fell, there's something years from now I have to tell. Mommy doesn't want you to be sad, she'd want you happy, so please be glad. She was a wonderful person, I'm sure you kow, twenty is much too young to go. You're also to young, only five, I'm glad that at least you're alive. C'mon baby, daddy's here, we're all alone now, I fear.
I lay awake, at night Hearing your spirit, calling me I feel you, deeply Another time, another space How, do I bring you back home?
Its not like I asked for this It's something else besides But knowing there is no way out Just tears me up inside. It's like suffocation Like drowning on dry land Impossible, not really On my knees for I cannot stand You make promises and break them all Crush them into dust Moving on isn't helping To just leave things in the past Burnt down to ashes, black and cold Another day goes by Another day in which I mean naught Left on low, not on high I do not beg for this torture To be left out on my own But you make it seem like that's what I want And again I'm left alone One day you'll pay the price for this And regret it everyday You deserved it for what you've done And that's all I have to say You make is sound like it hurts you more That you're the victim here Truth is you stand by and watch me cry And seem not to even care
Sorrow lies, Deep inside... So sad without you, By my side... To feel your Love, To feel your Kiss... Are two dearly things, That I dearly miss... I miss you so much, Now, that you're gone... It breaks my heart, When I'm alone... I need you here, To hold me tight... To keep me secure, Thru day and night... Your lips and hands, Melts me with every touch... Are two more important things, That I miss so much... Our two hearts together, Our Love so bound... Was a lost true love, That was finally found... When we searched so long, And thought we failed... To realize the truth, Locked away in jail... We'll always be together, No matter, how far... They can't separate true love, With concrete, steel and bars... I'll always love you, And that's no lie... For our love is eternal, And will never die... Written: 01-19-1997 OCJ
On this parchment I am forced to write That of which I cannot speak On this oh so delicate paper I am enraptured by my under lying thoughts On this meager piece of material And this once sharp pencil I try to express the deepest of emotions On this once blank loose leaf That I now read to it's fullest I find that though I wrote about nothing On this one piece of parchment About nothing at all it seems Is full of something you feel, not just see
Been through a lot these seventeen years of living, Growing up with abuse in my home, Wanting to leave and flee, But afraid I was going to leave and be on my own, Wishing someone would rescue me and my family from the hurt, The hurt we faced many times seeing the one you love the most being abused, Abused many days and many nights, Wondering why, The answer was because he was the only one in charge, Almost Seven and these things were still happening, Wow wonder why they happened to my life, Don't know why God let me see the hurt, Did he know I would face the hurt forever? My family finally had a chance to get away from the hurt and the abuse, We found a house and much more, We were a happy family, A family that will one day be the best of the best, Thank you jesus for letting us go through the hurt to get a better life that we deserve!
I do not know the ways of Life from birth been shown violence and strife a mothers embrace was I rarely shown childhood affection have I not known At age of three from family outcast neglect and hazards uncertainty my past from even those who attempted to care I was prevented from being their share Been a difficult road since I was a child to comprehend nature that's tender and mild the one who with joy greets you each day who shows you life's wonders in every way Been a slave to the mean and the cruel where retaliation is an everyday tool looking for punishment and never for peace from your mistakes are never released What surprises most in the places I've dwelt those who use truth like a leather belt the book is addressed to you and your brother decisions for life made by you not another I place before you this day life and death unceasing wonders or that which takes your breath but you are the only one who can choose to love your brother the ways of death lose From men expect duplications of past where religions are formed his desires unmask if you use men as your standard of measure only one man had its fullness of treasure There is only one standard only one true the fullness of Love you must learn to do I am the you addressed in the book I am the one for its meanings must look I must apply its sayings to me set the example in everyway be those who needed his comfort for whom he cared demonstrated a love no others had dared Mankind as a book one he only could read see his intentions and what was his need knew how to lift them water the seed to develop his justice eliminate greed It's difficult for man to learn how to wait takes time to learn love get rid of hate even in this my frustrations well known I want it all instantly the lessons unshown I know it's me you're trying to teach I know it's me you're trying to reach I'm difficult stubborn from men shut my ears from cruel reverberations one everyday hears It takes time to digest where thoughts run deep to assimilate its message its directions keep apply every learning with consummate skill where all of its quality our hearts do fill So again I do share a small reflection considerations of Life to good its subjection one hopes the aim for the target to mark can be no achievement without standards to hark COPYRIGHT © 2012 C Michael Miller Via Duboff Law Group LLC
Madrid it is a hot and sad place. Filled once with music and pretty women now filled with bombs blasting on street corners and old women hovering over their dead husbands. Madrid was once a place of love and culture. Love was full through every hotel lobby to every small cafe, love was all around. Now, nothing but abandoded buildings inhabited by rats and broken dreams. The hotel lobbies once home to rich folk in tuxedos drinking expensive champagne and dancing, now filled with young boys bleeding from bullet wounds and burn't to the bone. Madrid once a home to life now a home to death and war. Fellow Spaniard fighting fellow Spaniard in a Civil War between life and greed. Life was all good and well till 1937 came around.

Far away in a little town tucked in the corner of a map Lives the girl who ruined his heart And broke his life While with him she would smile and laugh so sweet Tender as only she could be In his heart she lit even the corners so deep With time she became his definition of life In all he did he had her in mind Life wasn't life without him seeing her smile As moments grew into weeks The flower of his heart started to reveal its wilt In her eyes no longer was the sparkle he was used to seeing Winds carried awful odour of their disorder Tales went round of her illicit exploits behind the counter The man with the shop at the corner savoured all the honey she offered At first he dismissed the whispers with laughter But soon he discovered he was the only one on the other side of reality's border Yes indeed, another prince had taken over Trouble was how sincerely he loved her Problem was that even she had only love to offer Issue was he hadn't yet sold a dime of the books he authored
When I Needed Someone… You Weren't There! When I needed someone the most. You wouldn't listen. You said; "There's too many things in life I don't want to be missin.'" When I knocked on your door. And asked you to pray… You said; "don't bother me!" "Just go away!" When I was going through a hard time. I called your home. You really got upset. And hung up the phone! When I was at a very low point of much discouragement. Not once… Did you offer any kind of encouragement! I've thought about everything that has been said. At times, I wonder if I "was better off dead." It's almost like you wish "I wasn't there at all." You never talk to me. Or give a call. Should I attempt to call on the same Jesus, you claim to know? Would he listen to me… Or simply tell me to GO??? If I make an attempt to call on his name… Would he get upset like you? And complain? What do you suggest that I do? Especially that I don't really have anyone else to turn to… Will Jesus turn his back on me… The way you did? Without any hope or meaning… I have no reason to live. I think I'm going to take the time, and ask Jesus to come in… Perhaps this is the way that I can really find a FRIEND! By Jim Pemberton 11/03/11
No one does it better than I. Be they outgoing or a touch shy. And to sit and think about it now, And I tend to really wonder how I got in the business of stealing hearts. Whispers of a life draw them in. Sweet smiles and laughter keep them pinned. And in an instant, I think we could be. And then I remember we're dealing with me. Trapping souls forever is a tricky art. I've never set out to hurt a soul, But when I leave, they're never whole. And I sulk for two or three. And then I move, 'cause I'm me. In the end, I break them apart. Falling in love is never my plan. But then again, such a dashing man. And I guess I have a charming way. And I guess I make them want to stay. Is there ever an end to what I start? I've never asked for all these hearts. I was searching for the missing parts. And then I wake up one day and see. And then realize it's not meant to be. When composing love, I'm your Mozart. I'll come into your life, and make you fall. I'll take your heart, I'll take it all.
Attractions Bright lights everywhere Distractions Noises fill the air On this carnival planet We're all searching for something But some will find nothing And most have no clue where they're going I'm just another one of them Another blur of movement passing by I'm just like all of them Another face, another insignificant life Blend in Fade out Breathe in Breath out Sure, I'm searching for something Truly don't know where I'm going But I don't think I'll find you there Deep down inside I've locked myself away The keys are long gone with my lost fantasies Now I'm more in love with all alone Than I could ever be with you I'm so full of my own empty I no longer have room for you
The Outer Island Small Island in a summer lake And on a day of play Young people were slaughtered by A madman posing as normal. Another summer the island is Full of wild flowers Whispering trees A requiem for those left behind.
I wish I could return 19 years into the past Back when my ear was against my mothers heart beat Rocked asleep by the saint in her voice Kept safe with in the walls of her ever loving flesh that kept the pain at bay But curse the birth that threw me into this messed up world my life now has scars but I will live to love her forever more
Sitting to the side Lost in her own thoughts You watch her think And see different emotions Flicker across her eyes And as you try to guess What exactly she is thinking She looks you in the eye You feel her looking into your soul And you are frozen It seems like eternity Until, she smiles Then continues to get lost In her own thoughts
Have You Heard the GOOD NEWS? I get so tired of hearing about "the latest scandal…" It makes me wonder; "how much can this world handle?" It seems like each day, on the news, it speaks of "another killing…" Are these types of things really a part of "living?" There must be more to life than what we hear on the news… More to life than a cigarette or a bottle of booze… There's a simple message for us that must be heard… The secret to true living you can find reading God's word! It reads; "all have sinned and fallen short of God's glory…" But wait! This isn't the end of the story! His word also speaks of God's redeeming grace… This can be found anywhere. And any place… His grace can be found through Christ' atonement… His love can make you a new person… This very moment! His word also says; "where there was sin… Grace did much more abound!" A brand new life in Christ. Today… Can be found! This GOOD NEWS can transform you by the power of the cross! This is what this world needs… That is dying and lost! Spending time with Jesus is always time well spent! May tomorrow's news read; "Another sinner has chosen to repent!" By Jim Pemberton 01/20/10
Mother Mother why did u leave To live in the sky Mother did you know You forget to say goodbye And when I'm sick And cover in bed Who will give me medicine? And kiss my head Mother did you see me How much I cry Father said its god will To make you die If god loves us all Why did he take your life? Away from your little boy Who is only five? Mother did you see me My first day in school Mother I comb my hear so nice And I look so cool Dad says you watching me Mother can you see what I do Dad says I look Everything like you And when dad takes me to the park And kids are their mommy I cry in side for you But never let dad see Mommy I am so scared Why did you had to go I keep praying that you will Come back home tomorrow But I know you are in heaven Dad says you're an angel So I wall always be good So one day will join you as well Mother please looks over me Your little boy is so alone And if get a chance to leave heaven Please come back home
I entertain the notion of leaving For a day or for a year Is really no matter to me The idea of a wandering star entertains me Orbiting your thoughts But never quite landing Or at least not long enough To hold your attention Or your hand Until the day That you notice your satellite missing And you look up Only to find me Next to you I entertain the notion of leaving And never coming back To see the sea and smell the ocean Watch blue skies turn to black The thought of sadness intrigues me Much as pain is for fun I'd like to see someone mourn me As a friend, a brother, a son I entertain the notion of leaving Perhaps just for these words I entertain the thought of you reading them The things you wish you hadn't heard The music builds to a crescendo And I wish I could make up my mind I wish I could do what I want to do And leave no trace left behind I wish that no one would miss me As I wish the whole world would The thought of being alone scares me Much more than thoughts of death could No, I shall not go today But who knows what tomorrow may bring I doubt it will bring you back to me But I guess I'll just wait and see
Dear Friend, I just had to write to tell you how much i love and care for you like a sister. The other day, i saw you walking and laughing with some of your other friends; i hoped you'd want me to walk along with you, too. So, I painted a picture of Hello Kitty and sent it to your house via mail. I waited; You never called. I just kept on loving and caring for you like a sister as best as I could. At home that night, I kept thinking about how lucky i was to have you as a friend. The next morning, I called you to see if maybe you wanted to come over but the line was busy. So, i waited a little bit and called again. Turns out you were at a friend's house. Again. So I went to my other friend for advice for how to get you to just talk to me. She said it sounded like you weren't my friend So I thought " Maybe if I unfriend her for a month, she'll notice!" You didn't. It's been almost two months. I just want to know the truth..... Because you are either my friend or you are not. I personally would like to know the truth. So much for going to heaven together, Callie R.
You talk about how you can never find her, or how you can't seem to keep one around I try to hide the fact that I am that girl, because I know that in your eyes I'm not. You say that you want a girl that laughs at all your jokes, If you notice, I do. I let you cry on my shoulder, EVERY time you get hurt. You say that you want a girl that you need a girl, that's there for you when you need her One that makes you laugh when you don't want to. A girl that you can be yourself around. If you notice, I'm her. If you notice, I'm everything you said you want. Do you notice? Not one bit. But I wish you did.
People everywhere bring me your ear, I have something to say that you need to hear bad things are happening to our children today, creatures of darkness are taking them away Wake up people, open your eyes they are lurking about and telling them lies these are our little treasures, given from God above all they ask for is our unconditional love Yet we let them in these creatures of the night robbing us blind in plain sight of our children, our loves, our prize possesions you'd think by now we would've learned our lesson They torture them, kill them, and lock them away they're hoping someone will come for them someday yet you stand idily by and watch them creep while these thieves, these killers walk the street These creatures of darkness, some are close to you too your sisters, your brothers, or maybe even you when it comes to our children, no one is excluded aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, all are included Don't leave your children in the hands of a stranger because leaving them in the hands of someone you think you know, maybe putting them in danger So take time people, investigate There are creatures out there who are filled with hate They'll take your babies and make them cry then turn right around and tell you a lie They'll say your child is just like their own and in the very same breath wish they were gone So love your children, and always protect and you'll be rewarded with their love and respect. There are too many children being put in harms way, because of carelessness, I just want to draw some attention to this huge problem.
God Brought A Healing To My Troubled Mind… I used to allow many thoughts to enter my mind. There were good and bad ones... Just about every kind. My family thought I was being a "good Christian." I never did anything that raised "a suspicion." I went to church every week and did the "Sunday thing." I had no idea the kind of life my thoughts would bring. I felt much "turmoil" of what was in my head. "How much longer can I take this?" Were the words I said. As there were many bad thoughts that seemed to "burn." Those around me didn't know or were concerned. I needed some help. And I needed it fast! I didn't know how much longer I would last! With no friend to help.., I decided to pray. This was my time with God! This was my day! I cried out to God with a voice of confession; "Dear Jesus rule over my mind and take possession!" As I read God's word... Philippians 4:8 was found. Virtue and wholeness in my life needed to abound! I asked and begged God to help me to obey it! I gave my commitment to him. And not just "say it." A love for him as a friend was found and did bring. His peace and love "washed away" the evil things. Christ restored my life and my mind was renewed. He set me free! Now, I'm BRAND NEW! Won't you allow God to bring his love to your soul? With him in your life... All darkness will GO! By Jim Pemberton

His heart gave a leap of joy, scrambling up over a wall of memories, as the leaves quivered in front of him. On Monday the children were playing at soldiers. On Tuesday he was playing fast and loose with a girl's affections. I forgot to give childhood to him and the coat sit badly across the shoulders. A heart overflowing with gratitude,he was a good man, came of a good family. Thinking of grievous loss and bewailing, Jack Haley woke up. Gale force winds and the boat of souls tossed about on the stormy sea, a joke and a racking headache of a thousand why. Silence reigned everywhere at 6.30 in the morning. He is a law unto himself now as 5 dollars in his pocket suddenly disappeared. He never sold himself to the enemy and lights turned on. He looked at his son with pride,fingered the tie of reputation, stammered out a few words and then stopped. Just stopped.
I have gotten used to coming home to be alone I have gotten used to not questioning where you go and I have gotten used to a short call to say hello but I have not gotten used to the way my heart feels ohh so low I have leaned to be okay with talking only briefly our schedules don't match up at all but someday you will see me I have learned you never come when you say you will and I have learned not to expect the actions said by you I would like to be taken out just once in a blue moon I don't ask for much you see just to be with you I would like to lay one night knowing you won't have to leave I would like to wake up to you sleeping next to me. But no, you can't not right now maybe in a year should I wait when my heart breaks? every day I feel the tears I am lonely and in love with someone who loves me or so I think, but where oh where is he?
Behind distorted glass I see the sadness of your sinking heart, I could sense that your troubled mind was aching and searching to find someone who was gentle, loving,caring and truly kind, as alittle kindness goes along way to help to light up the darkness of someone's sad and gloomy day. It can lift you out of the deep pit of depression when you hear and read such tender and warm expressions from the heart of a dear and true friend, it touches you to know that someone truly cares. Someone with whom you can confide and a safe haven for you to hide, Someone you can always depend the one person in the world you can call A True Friend, the one who is always there for you, I will be the one to get you through, giving encouragement and to show I believe in you will be cheering you on in this race we call Life to help put a smile on your face but always take each step at your own pace as there is no need for extreme speed in this world to succeed A True Friend is All you Really Need.
I just can't keep "doing this" any longer! What am I doing? I began to wonder… This "sin" just keeps dragging me further down… What do I do? There's no one around??? This "thing" has got a hold on me… I cry every night… I want to be FREE! I've tried and tried… But to no avail… Just when I think I have victory… I fail! I've read in scripture of a power that I haven't seen. I read of a savior who can do ANYTHING! Why don't I give him a try? I've nothing to lose! I've been so hurt, worn out and abused..… To you, dear Jesus… I confess my every sin. And can feel your love from deep within! Thank you Jesus! For giving me a joy I never knew… I don't know where I'd be if not for YOU! You've brought to my life a peace I never had. For all you've done for me. I am so glad! Won't YOU give your burdens to this one… I call friend? And experience the joy of being born again? Please come to him now. Why not this hour? And experience his life-changing power!

Still cannot wrap my mind all around all alone Where would I even start to describe what I've known? No life left so breathless all used up all worn down How it is Is how it was And how it will always be. If I could see what it would have been like to find you.... I'd have traded every wish and said they all came true Please heart, quick!! Please, please heal!!! Please let me feel again!!! He'll never know how empty he will be without you. In the end He'll remain what he's been this whole time Just a dream, just my prayer, just not mine
Drain out all the agony Help me fulfill my destiny Catch the waves…it's coming from all directions And wipe that frown… I'm trying not to break away…in front of you, I'd rather stay But it seems like…the clouds decide to fade I'm dying every day…I'm making time to survive this day I'm drying… I turned out to be a hideous shade I'm releasing the sorrow… clinging on to gloom... Your affection and glory Set me free from despondency Stand up and face the emotion – your heart mends my infections And don't weigh me down… I'm trying not to break out…but it sparkles in my bloodshot eyes My sorrow is exposing… but you're still willing to stay I'm caught in midair…I'm a slave, pursuing my demise I'm shriveling…I embrace your departure…I'm wasting away… I'm soaking up the sorrow…poisoning my bloom…
I would love nothing more than to be hers with a smile that fractures my sanity i question the need of all medication when after all she is my cure and doctors are baffeled by incontrovertible indubitable proof that my heart beats in morse code to spell ouut, her name Thump thump.. thump thump.. thump.... flatline Now my abused heart can take a break lashed with whips, it shrivled in fear too scared to seek the love it dreamed to meet now without a beat i live Because, shes has given me a new reason to live and taken by the wind, i swept her off her feet and told her that I will walk upon the this broken glass, for us take your time, for love is never planned So I'll be here holding you if and when you make the decision to stand i will let you go but if i am ever so lucky to have you whole i promise to never to let you go And make you All-Mines
Once upon a time there lived, A beautiful girl and a man she loved. So true was such their love, There wasn't anyone who disapproved. It had been love at first sight, A fairy tale since that day. The maiden had found the man of her dreams, No one else needed to have a say. They had done it all, Candlelight dinners, shyly holding hands, Kissing in the rain, dancing around trees, Leaving intertwined footprints on white sands. But it wasn't just another love story, It was uniquely special like every other one. They had eyes for no other but one another, The best part of their lives had just begun. They traveled around the world, And she kissed her man at the seven wonders each. People would smile at the storybook couple, As they counted stars standing on a beach. With her, he was the man he wished to be, The one who wouldn't think twice, About pulling her up to dance in a crowded train, He'd protect her, keep her happy at any price. He'd see through her weak smile, All the way to the tears inside, He'd whisper sweet things in her ear, Hold her till all the tears dried. Though they did have a fair share of problems, They always came together again, No matter what happened, Like raindrops on a window pane. On a rainy day, she had sat waiting, Wondering about the surprise he had promised, But he never came, For the winds of fate had suddenly changed. Five years after that day, she found herself alone, Sitting on the porch, counting stars on her own, As she recalled the day he had been taken from her, 'An unfortunate accident' on the next the papers had shown. She hadn't cried on the phone, she hadn't cried on the way, She didn't even cry when she had to identify him, Not a single tear or a heartrending sob. She just stared ahead with an expression so grim. It was only when she had received his belongings, The remnants of his last minutes, did she react. She screamt and cried, laughed and wailed, For among others, was a diamond ring beautifully packed. His surprise, the laughter in his voice, The excitement, the secrecy of the evening. He had been right, it had left her breathless, But he wasn't there to see the sorrow it did bring. Even now her eyes brimmed with tears, As she looked at the ring as it sparkled, And thought of that time when there lived, A beautiful girl and a man she loved. - Miliya Parveen

Greetings from the RedKnuckle Storyteller,you may find he;s ann odd kind of feller. Though he'll do his best to write from the heart,and what you don't like you may always tear apart.You see,this storyteller has lived an awful life.A life without family,children,a beautiful wife.Now some may say my poetry expresses my pain,others say it's a release in anger I gain.Personally I write about a society in grief,so many hurting with no sign of relief.I am so proud of every man,woman,child from these hoods,for when it comes to unity and strive they truly deliver the goods.With the streets getting younger every day,what's a careing man do but kneel down and pray.These are our children out there,so who's in charge to step up and care..It pains me, that i'm but a single voice heard.who's only given inspiration is sometimes a single word.Now go find a drink and a comfortable chair.For we are about to embark on a poetry journey where others would'nt dare. Dedicated to all the missing Women in Vancouvers lower East end. (MAY THEY NOT BE FORGOTTEN!) PEACE AND LOVE... T.R.K S
Hold on to yo struggle, Cause no matter what: Somebody got it worst; You goin through some Changes in your life, Crying and complaining every Night… Telling God the way Things Goin aint right, And how you deserve so much more; But girl I'm here to tell you; How you got the audacity To … Fix your mouth to, Question God, After all he pulled you thru.. How selfish are we… And I can't blame it All on you, Cause I've been in that place too.. But before you open your Mouth, Lemme straighten you out, It was days, When you didn't know what to do, With nobody to run to; But God gave you a friend, & he promised to place, Her in your life 'til the end; Remember that night when You really wanted to end Your life? God was watching over you, But girl I'm here to tell you; How you got the audacity To … Fix your mouth to, Question God, After all he pulled you thru.. How selfish are we… And I can't blame it All on you, Cause I've been in that place too.. But before you open your Mouth, Lemme straighten you out, Somebody somewhere, Living without a parent; Scared to take action, Baby girl; Don't even question, Don't fix your mouth To speak, Cause you had your chance all week; But girl, Please tell me How you got the audacity to Question God After all he pulled you through.. See, Its funny to me; Cause I've Had my problems too, But I took care of my business, So much better than you.. I smiled like nothing was Wrong, Honestly, Believe it or not, I still do! You think you got it bad, But girl; It coulda been worse.. Some people Don't got nothing to their name, And you sit up here and give God all the blame, But girl I'm here to tell you; How you got the audacity To … Fix your mouth to, Question God, After all he pulled you thru.. How selfish are we… And I can't blame it All on you, Cause I've been in that place too.. But before you open your Mouth, Lemme straighten you out, Its crazy how you talking; Like you'd switch places with Them any day.. But girl, Before you complain, Try saying "Thanks"; Cause it coulda been worse… Somebody somewhere got it Rough, Hmm.. I guess, me Talkin to you ain't enough But girl I'm here to tell you; How you got the audacity To … Fix your mouth to, Question God, After all he pulled you thru.. How selfish are we… And I can't blame it All on you, Cause I've been in that place too.. But before you open your Mouth, Reread this, so you can get Straightened out.. Inspired by Lyfe Jennings – it Coulda Been Worse
Those Close To Us Can Cause Much Hurt And Pain... Isn't it amazing… The hurt and damage, someone can do? Especially by the same person who said; "I Love You!" Isn't it amazing… How someone, which we've given our heart… Can betray our love, and "tear it all apart?" On that special day, when your vows were exchanged… It's almost like "overnight," some people change! Even amongst Christians. This seems too commonplace. As people seek their own desires… Instead of God' grace. Isn't it amazing… How anger, jealousy and bitterness begins? Even amongst our loved ones, that we have called "friends?" What's more amazing… Is how God, in his mercy and care.. Still loves us. And he is always there! No matter what you've said… No matter what you'll do…. God remains the same. And is always there for YOU! He is faithful. His commitment to you is strong and secure! His love is everlasting. And is 100% PURE! I stand amazed, as to how God still loves us. He asks for our heart. He wants to trust us! Won't you come and experience his love today? He loves you so much more than words could ever say! By Jim Pemberton
