I finally close my eyes
Nostalgia for yesterday
Tears roll down my cheeks
Never again hold your hand
Never again to touch your face
Angels have fallen for less
And I will fall too
With a bottle pressed against my head
So I can forget
Your name on my lips
The last thing I'll say
Before I'm carried away
Lay me down
Beneath the ground
Among a bed of wildflowers
And a red clay halo
Surrounded by the broken
As the rain gently falls
These tears that I'm crying
Will fall upon your face
Gently, oh so coldly
My very last embrace
After my time has finished
And I am going home
I will wait for you
That we may be presented together
Through the silent passage
A step into Elysium
A skip past Nirvana
Through the doors of Valhalla
Pass through the havens grey
And unto the West
There you'll find me
On a white bench near a golden shore
Staring out into the world
Watching as time unravels
Unwinds before my eyes
A moment as a lifetime on earth
Limitless waves lap at my feet
And not a care to be found
Peace...
Stillness...
Just beginning to understand
Two small words:
I AM
Contentedly together
Beneath the world's grey band
As the silent stars go by
And the wind blows in my hand
Angels fall
Like shooting stars
The sky is scarlet
But swirls like a whirpool
It's various shades follow each other
Gently eddy into the vortex
Heavenly voices sing around me
Witnesses to a new age
The keys are now used
Gateways to the future
The horns sound together
As the past and future king
Comes unto His own
Wrapped in pure, silken white
But appears black
Compared to the light before me
A face as bright as the sun
And then I awake
And then I wait
I cannot think but of rain
And water slowly falls
Tears of the world
Or necessary drops
To replenish life
Yes, pain begets hope
Just as rain begets crop
Just as death begets life
Just as life begets death
The thunder rolls
And too the light
Great sound from great power
Testament to the past
Witness to god-like potency
They say that past sins cast long shadows
Like thunder from the lightning
First we see; long after we hear
And yet too I wish to be like lightning
Although my life be short
I wish to be heard long after
For we never truly die
Until we are forgotten
I never thought I would find myself here,
Balanced between eternity and the present; realizing that there is no difference in between them.
Death sits below me as I consider falling into its arms. At least death will embrace me.
At least death can look past my mask.
And so I jump.
Thousands of feet and years rush toward my limp body and then, cold and stillness; nothing more.
Or so I believed.
But I was wrong.
Past the point of no return
Is the point where soul will burn.
The heart no longer has a will
The blood, the mind, they beat, then still.
Death is the point of no return
And they who pass; for life they yearn.
Those of us who battles still wage
Should continue to fight through life's next page
For if we give in, I think you'll find
We're already dead, at least in mind.
Everyone needs an angel in their life....
Otherwise it's hard to live
And without an angel in our life
Everything seems relative
Love is the greatest gift
Love is also a treasure
And when it's given from the heart
It cannot then be measured.
Fly, fly firefly
your time is quickly passing by
Th storm is raging, racing, fly
One rain drop and you might die
So fly away firefly
Light the world, no need to cry
For I will see your light and I
Will remember, Firefly.
As I sit, and I pray
I watch the sun bring a new day
I grieve for those so far lost
In their ways; high is the cost
Would it not be better, can they not see
The love Almighty God has given to me?
But the way is narrow to his place
And as I look into His face
I see the sorrow, His crying there
For His children who no longer care
I left you Lord! I spat in your face
I followed evil, my disgrace
It was not placed on me, my decision
Had set me up for Hell's derision
Then you took my place, your first born
The sun rose on my new morn
Now here am I, white and new
Living here, with your few
But I still grieve for those lost
For their decisions have such a cost
Eternal death away from you
Thank God that I am of your few.
