That place
Theres the sun and the rain and the one eyed doeAnd the blackwater runs through the evening snowAnd an old man hobbles at a pace real slow To a place that you and I know, yes a place that you and I know.Oh there we were some years beforeLaying under hickories after our choresSwearing our love would live through the warAnd then I left not another word moreNow I sit here thinking of all those daysUnder our hickory those memories stayBecause from war I came back safeBut God had taken you awayAnd theres the sun and the rain and the one eyed doeAnd the blackwater runs through the evening snowAnd an old man hobbles at a pace real slow To a place that you and I know, yes that place that you and I know.

A long dark road
He walks along a long dark road. He walks along alone.His tears don’t seal his wound won’t heal. He walks along so far from home.He cannot pull away from pain, nor break his steady stride of shame.Its there right where its always been. A knife lodged in his back.And every time he thinks its gone, his siren comes and puts it back.He walks alone along this road, a long dark road of rage.The road, the pain, the fear, the shame. In the end. It ends the same.

Impeccably unable to be titled
Turbulence chaos indeffinate suspension of peace! How can I describe the state of me?! I...I'm empty. Empty of so much. I'm angry, and tired, and depressed, and lonley. I'm exhausted. Can anyone please see through my paper charade and pull me out of my own hell?

Mind made up with memories
Stroll along the beach.With sandals made of thought.Find the castles in the sand.You thought you had forgot.And tears will fall like oceans.As you recall your days.But against their hollow motions.Those castles shall not sway.Now think back to the time my friendThat makes you think again.Because that moment gives us freedomBecause that moment never ends.

Candle Light
I stood awhile on a sunny day, I stood and watched a flicker sway.
A candle, cooking slowly bright. Dancing under Zephyr's might.
It twisted silent in the howl. Its shine, defiant, whispers now.
Into a hard and raging gale. Into the never ending hail.
That all these tactics could not but fail.
To flicker out this life so bright. Our last remaining hope at night.


The Valley of Shadow and Death
Here I tread, down the long dark road, towards the Valley that beckons my soul.
Here I float, like a ghost on a sled. Bobbing along to the falls up ahead.
I'm waltzing down to the Valley of Shadow and Death.
Down to the mighty earths core.
Where Sin is a Lion, and Evil it's roar. Just darkness no brightness no windows no doors.
But as I step down the path, that leads to despair, I know that my feet will not falter there.
For though I walk through the Valley of Shadow and Death.
Across my chest a strange feeling has lept.
Courage and Hope. Like doves, small but strong.
Two lights in the dark, they lead me along.
And here in my heart, is a warmth burning warm.
To keep me from darkness, to save me from harm.
Yes I will stumble, Yes I will fall.
But back to my feet, will I climb and stand tall.

A love Poem
I step in tandem with your stepI breathe in unison with your breathWe are a river. You the water and I the chasm you move through.We are the wind. Our whispers and our touch are soft but persistent.I am Sun to your Moon. You are Spring to my Winter.You, the fire of my passion. I, the cool water on your lips.The palms of Midas could not rival our Aura.The face of Venus, pales in the presence of our love's calligraphy.We are one incarnate. Two words spoken in one voiceTwo tunes played as one melodyAnd our music shall play across the galaxiesIt will soothe ears across the breadths of timeLong after our two souls depart this world as one...The dancing breath of our love, shall live on in song and poem.And step and breathe for the generations of eternity.

Beyond our Porcelain Lives
I've come...
I've seen...
I've cried.
My tears float down in rivers.
They heal no wounds...the save no lives.
But I cry them anyway.
Dreams are lifeless...
Nightmares...real!
Children starve
Families die
Hope fades...
Only God can save us now.

On Governments and War.
Oh ye capitals of men. How folly of you, to sit on your high hills and spie out over the nations. You plan yours plans of war, you build your weapons, you mass your armies, but each of you is already conquered. Conquered by your greed, by your bloodlust, conquered by your arrogance and your foolishness. The moment you stepped down the road of dark compromise, allowing glory to reign over love, you gave yourself up in chains to an enemy more dangerous than any nation. You gave yourself up to the darkness of evil, that breeds in the hearts of the ambitious!
You have become fools! Each of you! Believing yourselves to be the righteous, you bask yourself in the light of your glory. But such light serves only to cover up the rot of your souls! Such glory cannot cover up your stench! The world can see you as you are, cowardly men, who believe that war is the only way to solve conflicts. You have forgotten the ways of love, forgotten the power of peacefulness. You have surrendered to the darkness, your greatest foe, and now it owns you.
But the world will not tolerate you! She will not! She never has tolerated those degraded by their own apathy...disgraced by their own twisted sense of honor. She will rise up in a torrent against you leaders and you governments, and like a wave she will crush you, and it will be terrible.

Secrets
Underneath the mask is something so much more
Underneath the skin are secrets by the score
Secrets about darkness
Secrets about night
And even secrets about secrets...
secrets about light.

LOVE "The Valley of Shadow and Death". Excellent take on the 23rd Psalm. Morbid is good, methinks.
