Lines

The lines that are worth writing,
The words that where longly awaited.
Scribbles upon the paper of 
Sentences that create emotion and chaos. 
Words uttered from greats creating 
Quotes that many a man have said.
Writings of peace and love,
Poetry of hate and rage.
Speeches that set the world into motion, 
Holy scriptures of a walk set in stone.
The boundaries crossed on life's little road
Brings us to the lines of a story never told.

Lies of Destiny

Destiny finds us all
in a place of peace and faith.
It separates us from the world.
Changes the way things are.
Destiny is a blind spirit
that we seek from day to day.
It carries us forward and pushes us back.
Oh how misguided, we could say.
The life we lead, by destiny’s side,
so lost and so blind.
When you reach your goals and hold your dreams,
just turn around, destiny will still be there,
but no one else will be.

Lies Of Destiny

Hell's Feast 

This Hell that I'm falling in, is ever so changing. 
From a little spark in the darkness to the flames a raging. 
The fire ever so high, I'm sinking fast in this darkness. 
I look up to the sky and see the face of saving. 
Quickly my head turns away, not wanting him to see me. 
Asking for forgiveness, as the light comes closer. 
The darkness fleeing from his tears, 
I started to praise God for the life he gave and for this eternal soul. 
His presence turning away, I cried out for his forgiveness
Laying there to cry as the darkness overwhelmed me, 
The home I wished for is now gone and forever
I'll be crying in this fiery hole 
Where I lay and wait for someone to save my soul.

Dreams

My dreams of a better tomorrow, push me to live.
People in pain, we see them everyday. 
We stand there in wonder of what has happened 
Why has this generation seen the same 
As those from our past. 
Why do we continuously toss these dreams 
Of ending hunger and pain, wars and hate, homelessness and separation
Aside like they never really mattered, 
Just to pursue our wants of popularity, fame, and riches.  
This generation is in such a shamble, 
Moving around blinded from such despair. 
When will we see a world of people 
That will take on the troubles of this world 
And carry these hopes up that forgotten mountain 
In the sake of bringing about world peace?
Surely mankind will pursue such a dream
And consume such a world 
That has but fallen from being safe, 
Surrounded by these hateful things.

Falling Blue 

Raindrops are falling as the sky goes blue, 
I lay here waiting for this beloved you. 
The person I once loved so dearly and true, 
The love we once held extended beyond the moon. 

For now my beating heart shall beat like the rains fall. 
Till the day I finally see, 
That this undefeatable rhythm of love will carry on. 
As the blue mull's over 
And the ray's of life renew 
This heart beats again for this different you.

Timeless

The love I gave to you 
In the sands of time, 
Is now rocked by the waves of thunder. 
The lies I told to my dying soul
Is now growing farther from the docks at home. 
I ruined my chance for a lasting love 
Because I never could open up. 
You where my light, 
But I could never shine. 
I let those dark waves be our decline. 
I shall fight for you my dear 
To bring back your humble face.
Look around for this port of love,
I want to once again be saved by your grace. 
I fight these waves 
And pass this path of disaster. 
To these calming pristine waters 
As the current became my master. 
I find my way home to these loving ports,
Falling into your arms  
As the waves surround us. 
In the sands of time our love shall stay 
Forever we will be boundless.

Hate 

This hate that rages inside of me 
Burns with all intensity, 
From the life I knew to the life lived.
This daemon always beside me
Carrying me along the path of all bad things. 
My love hate, ever so cherished, 
The lies she never told.
The grudge's I made, written within the stone.
All this darkness surrounding me,
Gave light to the evil inside. 
My soul roughly depleting from the rotting body
In which it resides.  
I flee from this misleading hate 
And withstand the trail of all my wrongs. 
To come upon this new path,
A path of light and love. 
Free from the chains hate forced me to carry. 
Free I will forever be.
