My Meek King
To me, you've come
My king
To you, I belong
My liege
Meek you are
Gentle and kind
Having no fear
Simply divine
Sweetly you appease
Patiently you convince
Generously you give
Faithfully you believe
Your richness
Your steadfastness
Your holiness
Your meeknes
Have won me over
Drew me closer
Made me determined
To be your queen
The fruit of the Holy Spirit
You bear so richly
To the holy word
I see your submission
So I give Yahuah praise
For binding us together
Glory alone to His name
That we are for each other
My meek king
To you I yield
Forever your queen
My meek king
I slip into an onyx dream
darker than any decaying thing
From the void trying to fill the void
Like Erebus I too am born of Chaos
-unraveling in a mist of dissonance
The silken noose tightens
I am cast into my own Spellhold-
cursed and forgotten
Pain is a welcomed refuge
Lest the 'stars hide their fires'
I will burn into a blacken ember
The hour of silence beckons
Echidna coils her fiery despair
Round and round, over and over
A mother's love- her beautiful poison
And sinks her fangs while
begging for absolution
I sink below the slithering surface
where nighmares wash away the sadness
There is no peaceful passing
She carves her scars into her child's heart
And only with her blessing does she allow any healing
I slip further into the tangled madness
caught on layers of dissension
The steady beating of despair
is slowly creating a new heir
She shows you the horizon
She tells you it is near
Then she swims in self delusion
all while drowning others with her fear
I close my eyes, I open them wide
Inside a sleepless mind, the quiet
is a beautiful lie
Like it or not I have to choose-
To descend further into a watery grave
or tighten the noose
Your my greatest treasure!
You graced Me with your presence the day That you arrived
Then you made your way into my heart and settled there and thrived
You light the world up with your smile and cheer them with your laughter
You bring joy into my life cuz your my greatest treasures
This special woman I see before me makes me proud she calls me Mom
And someday when she too has a child of her own my joy her way will come
The little girl with a skinned up knee knows one day she will Rome
And when you move away from me know in my heart your always home
A tainted past has always followed me thru out my life thus far
But your the one thing from my past to present I'm proud to have you follow
Remembering all those years that we've spent together makes me know for sure
That your my greatest treasures!

My thoughts of seeing her again clouded visons
in the shadows of my eyes.
Lid on her casket was the last time
I saw her face.
Years passed not forgetting her nor my love for hr
Our hearts meshing together during the last week
of her life hear on this earth.A
Love to others flowed from her soul.
Fifty people all her friends came to say a last goodbye
in that hospital room
Last day of her life; she waited for me
while I went to make sure of her final
resting place.
When I returned I told her I loved her for all time.
fifteen minutes later she was gone.
Now the time has come to reunite
I go to her resting place the spot is opened
Angela all dressed in white reaches out to hug me.
I suddenly am dressed in white too.
Mama she says I came back for you
to take you home and you will never be
alone again.
He is so happy and so enthused
he plays his violin and is very amused
everyone tells him how good he can play
but he says he cannot play that way everyday.
People wonder how that could be
when obviously he can play, you can see
but when he is sober he is scared and afraid
that he will not like the song that he made.
Even though it is beautiful, and even though it is pure,
he says he needs the alcohol, and that is for sure,
to help dull his senses just enough
and make playing the violin a little less tough.
I hope that one day he will learn to play
the violin in a less threatening way
so that he too can hear the sound
without all of his other senses bringing him down.
A piece of heaven! 2015
when we first met you could tell i needed a friend
so you took me under your wing and helped me to mend
you were quick to tell me i was worth saven
thats when i thought i was looking at a piece of heaven
your cheery attitude gave me reason to smile
and your endless happiness went on for miles
wheather you were talking to some one or waven
thats when i realized i was looking at a piece of heaven
and when my mom died you never left my side
you didnt give up on me instead you became my giude
family always came first to you they were your everything
there was nothing you wouldnt do for them you always made there heart sing
i looked into your loving eyes and knew your love you've freely given
and then i knew with out a doubt i was lookin at a piece of heaven
you made there world a better place and put a song in all there hearts
you always looked out for your daughter and was very proud of your son
pride and joy shows in your eyes when your grand kids are having fun
we're all lost with out you here your love and guidance draws you near
your strength and courage made you strong enough to concor all your fears
knowing you has been a pleasure you helped me to wanna go on living
by leaving a piece of heaven in all our hearts.

When I feel down and lost
And can't find my way in the dark
All you have to do is smile
And that brightens evrything
So as your presence is around
I pray you stay with me for a very long while
To my heart a joy you always bring
When there is a storm over my head
You make the sun shine
And my soul no longer feels like lead
Now I am feeling alot better because you're mine
You take away the pain
And some how let me know everything is okay
I then have a better day
And every time happiness you bring
You are my angel by my side
You are always there when I need you
You answer all my prayers
You always guide me through
When I have a tough situation
You help me decide
You some how always keep my skies blue
God sent you to me for a reason
To make sure I make it through life
Make sure I survive
He asks you to guide me through each season
You help me stay alive
In myself and my duties
You help me believe in
With every part of my life
With your big brown eyes
They make me glad you're with me
God had sent you from the heavens skies
You've changed the way I use to be
Even though I have my days
I thank the lord above
For not taking you away from me
So this is why our safety I put in Gods hands
To protect thee
And in return he sends his love
To guide us in a better direction a better way
And for him by our side he'll always stand
Whenever we hear a church bell ringing
We'll know you are there
To protect us from harm
We hear your precious singing
We know you care
Because of you my little girl is my lucky charm
And for that reason You both will always be
My angel by my side

Dedicated to my mother Christine Barrek
I love you mom
I remember Back then
When i was a kid
The memories i hold
On everything i did
And the stories my mommy told
Tucking me into bed
Saying sweet dreams love you and don't let the bed bugs bite
Then before leaving the room
She'd kiss me on my forehead
And i'd reply with "love you and good-night
And before i knew it my dream went into flight
In the morning I'd wake
To the aroma of blueberry pancakes
That only took a little time to bake
As i hold onto my napkin
I watch as my mommy pours the syrup
I take a sip of my juice
From my favorite cup
Asking to be excused to go get dressed
Stopping half way to look at the glisten on the snow
I then go to change the jammies i messed
being messy is not good that i know
Boy to remember everything Back then
Brings goosebumps to my skin
I some times wish i was a kid again
The memories rush back to me when i look at the picture
Held up with a pin
The one you gave me Back Then...
(June-12-2013)
But that was back then
Now all i have is the memory
I try to think of my past
And begin to forget when
The last time we were close
And miss the way my mother was
And the morning aroma under my nose
Now my mother's soul is lost
And my memories are only stuck in the past
She is fighting with herself to live
I wont let my mother lose this fight at any cost
Her husband is the demon
Within her head
Her spirit is gone
He is the whole freakin reason
Why she is not trying
Afraid every night when she goes to bed
That one night she will give up on living
The next day she won't be alive
And that morning I will find her dead
I love my mother with all my heart
I cant even talk to my best friend
Because he forces her to tell him what I've said
In the past few years we grown apart
I want my mother there when i am wed
But that Subject On that I wont try to start
Because i cant trust her anymore
I pray to the lord to protect her with all his might
To keep her safe and out of harms way
Keep her in my children s sight
Let her live another day
Back then is what i can only remember
Its the only thing i can store
I don't want to see my mommy this way
It hurts me so damn much
I wish there was something i could do
To bring the Back then
I want to feel my mothers loving touch
All i ask god please don't let her life end
Because there's still memories to be made
Get her away from the devil that keeps her trapped
The one who controls her like a puppet
Help her before her soul goes completely Dark
Dont let her soul start to fade
And she loses all spark
Before the blackness kidnaps
The only strength she has to live
Is the company of my daughter(s)
I want her to share Back Thens with her grandchildren
Let my mother show them shes strong and smart
This devil let her see she can get away
Help her believe she can win
And from this prison she doesn't have to stay

{I}
Waiting for him, sitting in the car
Under the erie moonlight
Imagening what he'll do
Seing him in the distance, seeing him in the night
His mind shouting "I'm going to get you!"
{II}
He sees himself going after the man
He sees himself dragging him, dragging, dragging
Tying the man up
Everything is so dim
Under the erie moonlight
{III}
Torching him almost like he did her
His little baby girl, his little sweet girl
Remembering the scars he left behind
Making sure he'll never see another star
{Iv}
Under the erie moonlight
He opens the door
Seeing him more clear in the night
Wanting to murder him more
{V}
Coming around the corner
The daughter spots the father
But she goes into the store to see the owner
He had suddenly spot her
{VI}
The daughter yells "Dad"
"SHHH!" the father says
Knowing they been had
Knowing that they are goig to be dead
Finding out the guys name is Thad
{VII}
The guy hears the calls
Looks in the fathers gaze
The gun goes off...BANG! the daughter falls
Now the daughter is in a daze
{VIII}
The father goes after the guy
Inside he is mad
The father shouts "You're going to die!"
The guy gets away the father is sad
{IX}
As the father holds his little girl
He tells her "I'm sorry and I love you."
And then she was gone
{X}
Now the father starts to cry
Sitting alone with his daughter
He gazes up at the erie moonlight
So round
So bright
