Life is filled with suffering All this pain and sorrow All this hurt Endless despair Will I see tomorrow? Everything's dark No light to be seen Blood is all around Long nights Dreamless sleep With only one soft sound The sound of tears A sniffling nose Blue lifeless eyes All you held All you loved Forever out of reach Lost in darkness A deep abyss Misery, disbelief In this life of suffering All this pain and sorrow How can we ever find the hope To seek and gain tomorrow?

Suffering Life
Two cities Side by side A flowing river The only divide To cross this river This steady stream They build a bridge A golden gleam It reflects the sun It sparkles the river Along with the moon The small light sliver They make it glow So great and grand Watch waters flow Past shores of sand This bridge is build Yet gold is weak A precious metal We often seek For it is shaped by hands That don't need tools Emotional molds Our feelings in jewels For we mold the gold Into what we want Our desires reflected Our hearts, we flaunt We wanted a bridge To unite the cities To travel across To ship wine and cheese To trade goods and Information Experience and memory Our hearts transportation And our personality But the golden bridge Can't take the weight Of all these goods Across the straight And slowly we see That piece by piece The bridge fades And the trades cease The bridge sinks down For gold can not bear The weight of our hearts And the love that we share Curse the emotion That molded the gold Time has tarnished the work And our bridge becomes old Its color fades It's strength fails And into the river Downstream it sails The trade falls in The good cease to flow The sun no longer Makes the water glow It all fades away The cities grow distant And everything is lost The downfall is instant We doomed ourselves From the very start We built a bridge Made to fall apart Our emotions that founded A great experience together Would cause us to separate Now distant, forever

The Golden Bridge
Two cities Side by side A flowing river The only divide To cross this river This steady stream They build a bridge A golden gleam It reflects the sun It sparkles the river Along with the moon The small light sliver They make it glow So great and grand Watch waters flow Past shores of sand This bridge is build Yet gold is weak A precious metal We often seek For it is shaped by hands That don't need tools Emotional molds Our feelings in jewels For we mold the gold Into what we want Our desires reflected Our hearts, we flaunt We wanted a bridge To unite the cities To travel across To ship wine and cheese To trade goods and Information Experience and memory Our hearts transportation And our personality But the golden bridge Can't take the weight Of all these goods Across the straight And slowly we see That piece by piece The bridge fades And the trades cease The bridge sinks down For gold can not bear The weight of our hearts And the love that we share Curse the emotion That molded the gold Time has tarnished the work And our bridge becomes old Its color fades It's strength fails And into the river Downstream it sails The trade falls in The good cease to flow The sun no longer Makes the water glow It all fades away The cities grow distant And everything is lost The downfall is instant We doomed ourselves From the very start We built a bridge Made to fall apart Our emotions that founded A great experience together Would cause us to separate Now distant, forever

Mystery surrounds We can not tell We know not How we fell I am cursed to walk Among those down low Where people pass And time is slow Where leaves turn brown Where rivers freeze Where the sky turns dark And you can feel the breeze This foreign place I do not know I want the truth That will never show I want to be told the secret To this foreign land But I fear I lost the bet Question is, at who's hand?

Mystery
You walk, you drive, You live your life And yet you feel So much strife You're filled with anger, Sorrow, and tears You've been this way For many years And with each year A new tear comes A new face flees A person runs For no one sees Your pain within Their eyes are blind Brains in a spin They are there No words to share No life to live No breathe to give Questions unanswered Messages left Moods unchecked Intentions neglect The reason behind Is silence ahead No fulfilled request Loneliness and dread

Silence Hurts
In the lot The sky is dark But everything is lit I can see The passing cars But not the passing stars I can feel the cool cold dark But also I feel the light The light of Christ Shining in me Shining to show me the way But the light I'm about to see Isn't mine But its a gift so divine To see the work others do To be apart of their work I see cross after cross Painted on the lot I see light among the dark I moved myself inside the lines That is where I park As I step out I see a world More beautiful than ever One bounding for joy Abundant in life And bright as ever Amidst the cruel chaos Happening around Here is a sphere of hope An aura of safety A place of worship All inside a church What blessings will come next?

In the Lot
You invest time Money, and mind Soul and heart But in the end All you see Is love broke apart You try your hardest You give your all But it never will safice So why try Why push ahead When every step Is a sacrifice You do everything With perfection Trying hard not to offend You do so great Perfection really Then you fall off the deepest end Your mind goes dark Your thoughts become fear And never do you mend Your unconscious thoughts Your fear of loneliness Have now appeared Be her friend Let her grow close The demons all sneered But then those demons They have won They applauded and cheered You've been left Abandoned Alone A powerful light A beacon of hope That had once shone Now dead in the tower Hides above Never to walk bellow You have tried You gave your all But even perfection Is only third best Is this a test? To try my worth? To check where my faith lies? If so why have You left? The temple gone The millenium far Unhearing to their cries

Perfection Is Too Little
Time with you Walks and talks Drives and shops Never is a waste I cherish the minute The moment The hour It passes by In haste Never does it feel Like it lasted long enough Always passes by too fast But it's joy Will always last You make me happy Time with you My favorite thing I get to know you more Talking with you My favorite words I wonder if you snore? Walking with you My favorite steps Along the rivers shore Sitting with you My favorite rests My heart wants to soar Eating with you My favorite sight Food never is a chore Dates with you My favorite nights Endless fun, smiles galore. At these times Time spent with you My happiness shoots high My mind awakes My heart is alive I feel at peace inside But pursuing you Is my favorite call For it is with you I can overcome all

WITH YOU
A candle sits On top a desk A lonely flame A shining light But then the darkness Breaks away Another light Now shines real bright It casts a flicker It catches the eye Of the other candle present Is this light This flicker This flame A friend? Or maybe this sight Should be a source Of worry, dread, And fear After all, It seems that each And every year A new candle Can be seen So is it a friend, A foe,  A fear, Or is it someone Who should be Brought near?

What is the Candle?
No matter the twinkle No matter the star No matter the wish Or the distance far No matter the night Or the monsters fright There is someone With all the might Watching, listening Keeping you safe It's our Father Above With eyes of love He desires your best A good nights rest A kiss and a hug With no bed bug A sweet calm dream Of a steady stream Or a sailors ship Or a family trip No matter the vision Through out the night There is our Father above Who keeps away all fright

Father Above
Your head Is in a spin But sometimes that Is what you need To see the earth In its orbit Around the sun It spins around It never stops Always in motion So spinning In life In shadow In your head Or in your heart Should only be Seen as natural
