• Like Life Begins (soundcloud)

    by

    In the warmth of a day, 
    We listlessly fade into euphoria; 
    With a folk tune, 
    And a blank page in hand, 
    Daylight passes like fading thoughts; 
    With a cheerful melody, 
    We get carried away; 
    Lost in thought, 
    Confused about being carefree, 
    And dancing with time; 
    
    Mother remembers the time, 
    And son begins again; 
    I lost it all but the fear of the Lord; 
    That wise men have never forgotten; 
    Withstanding the memory, 
    And never forgetting, 
    Remembering my children's first laugh; 
    The smell of some flower I don't know, 
    Begins to arouse a thought; 
    I am at peace on a Sunday morning; 
    
    Remembering the time 
    And remembering when 
    A moment that's mine 
    Fells like life begins 
    
  • Derealization

    by

    Sickening impurities feed an enigmatic absence
    Lost in the disillusionment , we fade
    Twisting unrealism plunges the knife of nonexistence
    Insistent upon a notion, we feed, and give praise
    
    I lost the sight, in my schizophrenic eyes
    Seeking the distant hope, of a brand new day
    Damnation insistent, shall we truly live before we die? 
    Fractured listlessness hides in derealization's wake
    
    Was this a dream,  because I no longer feel alive
    The distances existent, that awake us in a sense
    Lost and alone, the emotions that won't reside
    This lost reality, without any recompence
    
    Only a shell, of what formerly used to be
    Hollowed out, what is left, is only a frame
    Go through the motions, and all we can see
    That everything is stupid and completely inane
    
    How do I become something new deep within
    The path ahead is dark, and a distorted haze
    How far have we come, and where did I begin
    Something is blocking the way
    
    I pray that this ends, and just don't believe it will
    Peace of mind does exist, but not within me
    Just hide your face, and remember to take your pill
    The racing thoughts will stop, just wait and see
    
  • Amazing Grace

    In the depths of human longing, a sacred spark does gleam, 
    A story of redemption, and a heavy heart's eternal dream
    With humble hearts and steadfast faith, we gather in His name,
    To weave a tapestry of grace, where love and hope proclaim

    Father we lift you up, and give you thanks for your word
    For the scent of a springtime flower, or the beauty of a bird
    Our weary hearts, because of you, we can lay our burdens to rest
    You give us strength, when we get our lives in a total mess

    The hope of a new day, can shine bright in a heavy heart
    When this life is opposing, or tearing your world apart
    You'll know when it's time, trust you'll know when
    When you get on your knees and ask, that's when life begins

    I truly do hope, to one day see you way up there
    It's just my eternal wish to just make everyone aware
    Amazing grace is simple, and can save your life too
    Just be careful, the closer you get, the devil will misconstrue

  • We Define Insanity

    by

    Contemplation offers no conclusion 
    In the distant impurities of the mind
    Warped intuitions insistent upon an answer,
    Hold no ground in the eyes of eccentricities
    We think and then rethink the meanings,
    Insistent upon an answer,
    Replaying the process over until we expire
    We define insanity



  • Onyx Midnight

    by

    Across the desolate plains of devastation's ruin, 
    Onyx midnight, shines glimmers of a distant yearning,

    We venture into the vast existence of contemplation,
    Withstanding not, the wretchedness of our own disdain,

    Seeking the creation of our personal despair,
    Walking listlessly in a seemingly infinite redundancy,

    The void of this deplorable existence...
    Could this be the void, once more?

    A haze, the dank and cold reality of thought,
    Sickening absences, an emotional strain,

    Plagiaristic death, our liiteral internal numbness,
    We dance alone to the rhythms of our incandescence,

    Potential motivators provide a simple purpose
    A soul to yearn, we admire your simple determination,

    We question your motives, and we question reason
    Lost, we wander these hazy skies in an infinite night,

    Recreating reason, and recreating time,
    Misplacing the memories of our own trauma,

    In the end, will we be granted peace of mind
    Or, is this void really our own personal gift?

  • Never Cease

    by

    Sleep is an incandescence, 
    When a tormented poet cries
    Listlessly broken in an essence
    Shadows break and we wonder why

    Haze and starry skies, divide night
    Did I die, or do we have to wait to see
    Wisping thoughts, an existent plight
    Glazing white shining off distantly

    Souls of contemplation replenish
    The bitter taste of acidic churn
    The prose that we can never finish
    Laid waste, in an antique urn

    Withering inside confusion's wake
    I ask God for a gentle release
    Give me peace, for mercy sake
    Torment seems to never cease

  • Someone So Inane

    A young man, angry and inane 
    With blasphemous words of falling rain
    I was angry with myself and angry with time
    The words spoken, I can't believe where mine

    I questioned God and I questioned me
    Asking things of satan I didn't believe
    Some things, I guess, are better left unsaid
    Even now, asking forgiveness in my head

    And glory devine, my sins he forgave
    I thank him each day, for rising from the grave
    For saving my soul and my family too
    For God, is great, and can be for you too

    I want to sing and shout your glorious name
    For saving the soul of someone so inane
    Thank you for all that you do, and all you are
    And last, but not least, for watching from afar



  • Companions

    by

    Oh me, what life, 
    What life that sees,
    What life that bleeds,
    Speak truth, for life fades away,
    Enthralled truth, that speaks of lies,
    We suffer the wrath, of thought
    Spoken in enigmatic tones,
    As an incandescent night approaches
    We sink into an intrusion,
    Wisping thoughts
    Come like a winter breeze,
    Chilling,
    Killing,
    Penetrating listlessness,
    Madness bleeds ink,
    We can't withstand a gentle night,
    For madness, seeks a companion

  • Amazing Love

    Some wood and nails, up on a hill 
    His amazing love, serenity revealed
    With thorns and cross, eternity fulfilled
    When we question not, his goodwill

    Inspiration, in his artistic ways
    With no words at all, he has so much to say
    His amazing love, left on replay
    And there is so much, we can't repay

    I sing to you in poetic verse
    I can count on you, when reality is worse
    And, when this world begins to coerse
    Or, when this life gets to adverse

    You are the Father, and you are love
    Sending us angels, you watch, from above
    And when in need you give us a shove
    Because, you are the Father, and you are love
