There is a burning sensation
deep within my soul
it pains and aches for only one

This fire is swells and burns
with great passion and desire
it boils and bubbles in idle wait

The fiery love,
the overheated temperature
your touch sets me ablaze

The smoke fills my vision
blocks my view of the dragon
but your body I will never forget.

As ashes fly and soar
my heart cries and utters no more
In the end there is blackness as I hear your wondrous roar

Even death cannot stop
the depth of this burning love
upon the grave time brings us together once again

We connect a fiery rampage
Passion, need, and instinct at work
A testament of our love never forgotten
This is dedicated to a friend of mine who I was talking to and the imagery just came to me in a blur.

I fight
not of my own
but of what I believe

I fight
not to have
but for what

I fight
not to profit
but to invigorate

I fight
not to be different
but for the difference

I fight
not for the world
but for all that is at stake

I fight
not for somebody
but for something

I fight
not for what I desire
but for what is needed.
Sometimes we have to fight. Sometimes this fight of life is passive, is tangible, or even spiritual. This fight isn't about you though it's about the cause of what is good. It's about fighting to be the fighter to start the fight to end the fight.

The heart desire so heavy
it brings me oh so dreary
I cannot express the heartache
All I want is for this to stop!

From missing and loving you
from not having you by my side
You were my everything
All I want is this torture to end

I gave it my all because of you
I still remember our shared kisses
our tender touches of affection
All I want to do is be able to hold you

how we used  to gaze into each others eyes
and get lost for what seemed like eternity
that could only happen with you
All I want is for that to happen again

I miss you so much it hurts
I miss you so much I cannot stand
the thought of being alone anymore
All I want is you once again
Have you ever had along lost love? Have you ever wished you didn't mess things up? Have you ever wondered what things would had been like if you hadn't messed up?

I wake up every day
Only thinking of you.
Even as I work my thoughts are not there
Because I am thinking of but only one

Love so far away
My work gone as it flew
From any of my concern here.
Your beauty compares to none

I just want to reach into the stars
Take your hand and hold
Close my eyes and know
If only I could get the courage to be so bold

Always just barely too far
"Not possible" I'm Told
Never give up light thru the night from your angelic glow
Sacrifice any amount of my gold

No matter how long it take
My heart I shall not let break.
I cannot stop for my own sake
My soul will accept any ache
Sometimes love can be right there in front of us and we don't take that chance and then it's too late. Don't mess it up.

War changed me
It changed who I am
It changed why I am
It changed everything you see

Peace isn't there
Nor here,
It roams like the untamed fire
That licks and smokes ablaze ever higher.

Smoke hides the enemy
Sound of the cannon ring loud
Men before me fall
My passage closed to flee
This foolish war people fought so proud
Only to die imprisoned not free.

My chains rattle
My life had a purpose
Yet here we are being driven like cattle!
This is possibly the end I suppose

They march towards us no fear in the eye
Their sword risen and muskets aim
Closing my eyes ready to soar and heavenly fly
The struggle as we all submit the same

What is victory?
For we lost and came to end!
Victory is a fight for what you believe
And for that we went down in history
For now the two sides have mend
And come as one when the war finally leave
No matter the challenge we must continue to fight. Even if we are shortsighted or don't see the reason we can be assured that each trial can only help us and others.

— The End —
