Hearts of Wind
harmony crescent May 2015
The wind
The deep, long breaths of the sea
echoes off mountains
through deserts
across streams

It rumbles through the trees
and sings
through chimes and strings

But it dies off
Eventually
Like all Hearts of Wind do

A Slave's Song (continued)
harmony crescent May 2015
All the creatures stop in quell
To listen to your feeble smell
Of all the fear down in your heart
Down, down in the deepest part

The moonlight yells,
The starshine screams
And tries to unknot the seams
Those tight seams divide in two
Your heart that won't give in to you

Though this song might never end
If you ever need a friend
The hope that never shows itself
Lives in your eyes, and there to help
this one actually goes before the original A Slave's Song

Nighthawk
harmony crescent May 2015
Uneven I fly
In the dead of night
Zig zagging towards the moon
Then I disappear
Until you catch my eye
And zoom into hysterical *silence

A Slave's Song
harmony crescent May 2015
Far away, in long long while
We were held in Ecinxile
They tortured us
We screamed and cried
Traitors stole, or so they lied

Corruptness swept through castle grey
Always felt, but seen in haze
Longing for some kind of change
But no hope left among this age

No birds, no trees, no joy it seems
Can fill the void
That sadness leaves
Unactive stages never run
This tremor of death had begun

A lark inside the tallest tree
Keeps my heart under it's wings
Forever on goes your reply
So underneath this tree I lie

This ballad that I sing to you
Will always be fully true
I'm for you, and you for me
In sadness of this melody

For no one knows what life may bring
So all you can do is sing
I play and sing this song for my sister so she can go to sleep. The melody is really beautiful.

Can You
harmony crescent May 2015
To sing is to laugh in a rhythm

To cry is to shed your laughter

But if you cannot laugh or cry,

can you still sing?

Free
harmony crescent May 2015
If I were a bird,
I would sing
as proof that I am free

If I were a bee
I would buzz all day
and you would see that I am free

If I were a tree
I would grow bright and green
so you could feel what it is like to be free

But I am neither a bird, bee, or tree
but I am still free
nature can show us how much freedom we actually have

Brakes
harmony crescent May 2015
Death was one foot away
until she hit the brakes

Death was one car horn away
until she hit the breaks

Death was one small scream away
until she hit the breaks

Death was whispering my name
but she hit the brakes
almost crashed, like, 30 minutes ago and i was so scared

Mothballs and Rag Dolls
harmony crescent May 2015
Moth ***** and rag dolls and
nothing left to talk about except for how much
time we spent idly and carelessly
Hyperboles of how we never knew what was coming
Never pondered the road ahead
Just slept instead

Never took the time to think
Just let the facts
sink right through our souls

But I remember when we actually lived
The memories, how they last
and I remember when
You held my hand and said
You'd carry me through any storm

Broken shards and rusty darts and
nothing left to think about except for how much
cash we spent idly and carelessly
No remedies exist for feeling empty and alone
Raised our glasses to someone we
didn't care about
Never took the time to hope

But never thought this road
would end      here

Miss You
harmony crescent May 2015
Someone asked if I miss you.
I didn't answer.
I closed my eyes and walked away
and whispered, "so much"

The hotel window is dark now
It used to be full of life
Now the honking horns just scare me
The shadows run away as if they too
are scared

Now
My only entertainment
Is hopping over cracks
in the pavement
on the path to
Death

Open Books
harmony crescent May 2015
Wouldn't it be great
if everyone was an open book?
no secrets to keep
everyone would feel free

if would be so much easier to find the one
because you wouldn't have to pretend to be
someone else because they would already
know everything about you

and love you anyway

How to Make the Perfect Guy
harmony crescent May 2015
A tablespoon of manners
2 teaspoons of daring
A couple drops of hope
and a whole lot of caring

A dash of handsome
and some be-with-me-wherever
pre-set temp at 100
and leave it in my heart forever

Remember
harmony crescent May 2015
When I die, remember me

not by the words I screamed, but by the words I spoke
not by the way I ran away, but by the way we walked together
not by the face that cried, but by the face that shone
not by the hands that slapped, but by the hands that held

not by the love we lost, but by the love we shared
dont cry because it's over, smile because it happened

Meant To
harmony crescent May 2015
My passions have a purpose
My dreams all have a place
God gave them to me
Not just to dangle them in front of my face

Dreams are meant to be pursued
Broken lives are meant to be renewed
And voices are meant to sing
Don't get discouraged when opportunities to showcase
our talents aren't popping up everywhere

Best it can Be
harmony crescent May 2015
One day is fantastic
the mirror isn't lying
guitar is already in tune
and the clouds are done crying

But when the only friend I have
is the breeze that's fading quick
and the bars were raised
higher than I can jump

It's getting harder to make the choices
that will make my life
the best it can be

The Fun
harmony crescent May 2015
The fun will last

But the guilt will last

The Phoenix
harmony crescent May 2015
Fall asleep under the trees
I raise my voice to sing to thee
Listen to my lonely call
And face the fears that torture all

My tears will help and strengthen you
Until Courage builds up a new tune
And when I die, remember me
I raise my voice to sing to thee

You Don't Know
harmony crescent May 2015
You don't know my whole story
You don't know my whole life
You think you can control my mind
But no one can control my thoughts
You can try to build up walls around me
But they will crumble the second they feel my rage

One Kind of Love
harmony crescent May 2015
There is only one kind of love that i search for
A love that is jealous
One worthy to yearn for

if it gives you hope
and it calls out your name
this love doesn't come from just any bloke

But there was a sacrifice that was made
my veil was torn and He paved the way
He bled and died so that  I could be saved
We can't search for neverending love in other people, only **true** love comes from God

Jars of Clay
harmony crescent May 2015
Why do we run until we collapse,
only to look in the mirror and tell ourselves we need to do it all again?

Why do we ace all the tests,
only to call ourselves stupid and put ourselves down?

Why do so many people call us beautiful,
but we can't help but compare ourselves to the magazines once again?

We are all Jars of Clay, sculpted by God's own hands. In our brokeness, the light shines through.

Airforce Husband
harmony crescent May 2015
The little bit of time spent every morning, it was my treasure
when I think about the promises you made to me
You would come back

Rush out the door, onto another plane
The risk you took every time you woke up
You would come back

Stroke my hair, thought of me each time you were in the air
Grabbed my hand, kissed my lips, you said
You would come back

Thunderstorms, always I prayed, and hugged our picture frame
I felt you murmur, through all the noise
You would come back

The   only   promise   You   ever   broke

Because   You   didn't   come   back

A Plan For Me
harmony crescent May 2015
I trust You've got a plan for me
but no matter how bad I want to see it form
into a life that's pleasing only
only to me

I'm gonna tell You that I believe
It's beyond my capacity
to understand the life You have
in store for me is pleasing

to You

Not to Break
harmony crescent May 2015
Cause we gotta
Keep driving down the highway     Even if the pavement's old
Get our toes a little wet     Even if the water's cold
Get a running start
And don't stop sprinting until the end

That's how we learn not to break     But bend
