If only
If only but for a second, could I look into your eyes, then no evil could hold it's sway. If only but for a minute, could I taste your lips upon mine, then for this I surely pray. If only but for an hour, could I hold you in my arms, then...
The sly wolf
The Shepard stood atop the hill, watching o'er his flock. Thunder crashed, and lightning flashed. Rain upon the rock. In the midst, among the beasts. The one who didn't belong. The sly wolf, dressed as sheep, In amongst the throng. And watchful...
Serene
Soft, unbroken silence. Gentle kiss of wind. A bright new morn. You think it will never end. But when dark clouds gather. Thunder shakes the ground. A tremble in the air. And no shelter can be found. Look towards the horizon. Wait for the...
Adieu
I didn't think you could hurt me, but then you did. Your twisted web of lies, and everything that you hid. Rather than look me in the face, you stabbed me in the back. Cut right through my heart. Something you seem to lack. And I feel like a fool,...
A simple test
It dawns on us. The death of man. You can't escape. It is the plan. So dark and cold, is the unknown. You only know, what you are shown. But can you see, what is to see? Look past the veil. Look past the sea. The lies, the cries, the...
Fears
Moonlight shines through windows barred, into shadow darkened room. Illuminating all my scars, and brightening the gloom. Demon's claws rake across my skin. They all try and break me, with a taunting grin. I try and hold them off, but I know I...
Hypocrisy
You curse my name. You hate my face, Berate me, and put me in my place. Call me names, and scar me deep. But for this, I will not weep. I am who I am, and I won't be changed. You can try, but you will fail. Leaving you deranged. I laugh and...
Knowing
You think you know pain? I can tell you, that you're wrong. To be so far away, yet love someone so strong. Never getting to see them, never to feel their touch. That my friend is true pain, and it hurts far too much. Waking up to an empty bed....
Pain
Tears stream down my face, here I sit alone. Will this be my torture? For my sins, must I atone? I reach for you, and you back away. What are your fears? You used to hold me tight. Used to wipe away the tears. But now you seem to hate me, rip...
Perspective
Pieces crumble and fall around me as I fall into my pit. Gnashing teeth and eyes surround me taunting me to quit. Sharp sticks and cracking whips. The rattle of the cage. These things I know all too well, send me into rage. Bound by arm and...
Forlorn
The clock strikes twelve. The echo rings. It chimes, it tolls, and of memories it does sing. Of past success or recent failure. Love, lust, or simply pleasure. As the hours tick by ever so slow. I can't help but wonder where I will go. Certainly...
When in need
A caring hand is what I have to give Despite through hardships I've had to live A kind heart is what I chose to keep Though I have felt as if drowning deep A warm smile is what I wear So that the burden, you need not bare I will...
