In death I trust, in life I lust,
Sweet sorrow shall hold us close,
To bitter joy we are betroth.
Thy name, thy name I call again.
As thoughtless crows peck thy brain.
Deaf eyes, blind ears, fail to heed,
No words of hope or joy take seed,
On dusty grounds choked by weed and vine,
Fight shall I through gnarled root and thorny twine.
To reach the hidden light inside,
Where devils danced and angels cried.
To cast out shadows, that do dwell,
Personal demons thy must quell.
For future frollicks and joyous jaunts,
Shall be no more, if forevermore marred by haunts.
On feet and elbows I shall crawl,
Pointless endeavours won't break the thrall.
So anger swells this useless mind,
Feeble attempts to pass the time.
Will does falter, drowned by thy dry seas,
To rise again or stay bent and beat on raw knees?
What end you ask for she and I?
I will try, will try,
Will try and die.
For death is my fear, she fails to hold life dear.
Your smile is so heartening
That an imperishable warmth
Begins to rapidly devour
The deepest of my soul
The moment you light up.
Your eyes don't see
The things you do to me
When our sights meet
İ'm hardly asleep.
There's something about you
That when my world is shut
You lighten up my day
When life starts to suck.
Feeling discouraged
And Having doubt
But knowing you're there for me
İs what this friendship is all about.
İ don't see you for your foolish ways
Or for the wrong choices that you make
But for who you can become
A better you, with help from me.
You know my world
The same way İ know yours
We go there sometimes
To let ourselves soar.
Even after all İ know
İ still get frozen
Seeing you there
Without you noticing.
You're dazed, but i'm allured
You don't know what i think
You won't feel what İ feel
You're clueless about
My whole ordeal.
And as İ turn away..
They hit me
Regret
Self-accusation
And self disgust
İ hate myself
For not doing what İ trust
Would turn out perfect
The same way it happened
All up in my mind.
İf there's something that İ can tell you now
One thing that İ want you to know
İt's that you make me smile
Whenever İ feel low.
Lost, I suppose
Lost in a time
Full of hatred
And little love
Between the tears,
Between the dreams,
The sobs, the laughs,
The infinite cries for help.
Our world is falling;
The Skies are darkening,
Nature begins to disappear,
And the oxygen we breathe
Is soon to vanish.
Our family tears apart;
We stop caring for each other
The right thing seems so wrong.
Our friends are losing their values;
We're forgetting who we are,
And continuing selfishness.
So very lost.
Where shall we go from here?
I don't even know what to say.
I'm so damned confused!
I followed your lead.
Did I follow you wrong?
Were you singing the opposite song?
Cus if that's true, then please come back.
I couldn't understand what you meant by that.
I thought you were opening up to me.
Someplace where you could talk to me.
If you can give me a place to talk.
Where I can hear your voice speak thoughts.
I'd gladly stay there by your side.
Even if you ultimately hide.
That is what I really need, you know.
Some way to be closer so our love can grow.
To hear your voice in my ear at night.
Now that would make me feel safe... alright?
You know where my loyalties lie.
They'll always be there no matter what.
Guide me where you want me to be.
And I shall follow faithfully.
Please try not to allow me to falter.
For I do not want to betray you ever.
I've made some mistakes, this I know.
I hope you'll forgive me and guide me though.
Your love has been my guiding light.
Or at least your strings, that hold me tight.
Twist me around and play with me.
I'm your puppet as I chose to be.
Move me around, this way and that.
I'll work real hard to follow at best.
Though I may get real confused,
As this ship navigates through its wayward cruise.
His call delights my eyes
Yet I feel trapped inside
for it is not for I
that those words become alive
They capture me every time I see
Yet still remain a mystery
And I don't know if I have the energy
to follow...
It's confusing... intentionally
I know that they are lies
Yet I believe the lies
They're embedded deep inside
They light my heart alive
For we are truly bound
And I can't deny the sound
of the beating in my heart
When I see his light shine out
Sitting with these thoughts
allowing seeds to plant inside
They're growing in my mind
I hardly have the time
to decide what will become
the next part of my song
but I still try...
and lay down the lines
of my hearts designs
as I play...
with these rhymes
If this is all I can do,
Then I should take it to you,
As a clue for for me and you to follow,
Still unsure what to do with myself so hollow.
I'm so confused, I feel refused,
And accused of being the culprit.
I can't abuse, or suffuse,
This broken me I'm finding.
Coward? Idiot? I don't know.
Exactly what I am I can't discover,
And I'll never recover, or dissever,
My ties from this significant other.
I can't break this curse of stupidity,
This soul, bravery of fluidity,
Dripping away from me as moments broadcasting;
Never everlasting; my appearance contrasting.
Despite slight tolerance, severance has occurred,
And obscured my torn soul, my unclear architecture.
So despite the impression, give some digression,
And find reality's me, and my so clear recession.
I dedicate this writing, to the one called we,
Just so we can see, our reality we're facing,
Our confusion fast pacing; but together we can lace,
And trace our new future, if even new at all.
Maybe it'll be the same future it has always been,
Because what's yet to come may never be discovered,
So if thought about it right, all can be all right,
And we never will have to change, never recovered.
We can't rearrange our future, or rearrange us,
Only because of that force, that invisible source,
That we call our love, that admiration that floats above,
A disasterful, irreparable and regrettable course.
I dedicate this writing, to the one called we,
Because hopefully you'll see, the meaning behind me.
If you look close into my eyes, the meaning becomes true,
Because if you look close into my eyes, what is seen is you.
This is a revolution
Hear now what the children cry
Wake now from confusion
Your Savior stands in the sky
Your time is fast approaching
Life or loss, the choice is yours
Quickly, now, in this moment
Before time secures its doors
Can’t you see
Can’t you feel
Can’t you tell
The conflict’s real
That we war
For your soul
To leave you empty
Or make you whole
Here He stands while the battle rages
You want to destroy yourself
Give up to the Rock of Ages
Only He saves people from Hell
He calls to let Him save you
He wants to give you life
All He asks is that you believe Him
For your old self give Him the knife
Put to death your old self
Crucify your lusts forever
Bury them, six feet deep
Never to rise, forever to sleep
All this for the love of God
All this for your own sake
All of this to tell others
Veracity from fake
Can’t you see
Can’t you feel
Can’t you tell
The conflict’s real
That we war
For your soul
To leave you empty
Or make you whole
The time is now
The time is here
Why wait now
What do you fear?
Shrouded with doubt.. cynicism has buried it's way in..
through the skin.. parasites, they grin..
I don't know if i'm mean't to be where I am anymore, cause I made a mistake long ago,
did it take me off the right road?
maybe there isn't a right!! maybe everything is just wrong...
perhaps neither of the two.
damn, it can seem so confused..
These days are like flying forever on an aeroplane, constantly changing destinations while the inside stays the same..
too many people got money on the brain, i'm tellin' you it's gunna really rob your heart of the warmth that brings about positive change..
but you're too worried about keeping the change you could be sparing to another brother, in need of some support..
God could of wiped me from this earth by now..
the tears I shed are so full of life, & yet so fucking dead..
is this emptiness set apart from what's actually going on within my head..?
will these mends ever be made?
my heart is not your scapegoat, & my mind is not your slave..
so step away.. i'm not able to be caged.
