Deceit comes in so many disguise
Caught unaware by its stealth blow
Shaking the core of your belief
Leaving you no ground to stand on
Relentless deceit, so many layers
Coming in the garb of trusted
Conceited, it takes pride in hurting
Deceit is conniving for fresh strike
Tearing away the soul and its existence
It has thrived through centuries
Launched many warring factions
Pitted against each other, thirsty for blood
For deceit will always draw blood
Silently bleeding the heart of its feelings
Deceit always innovates, with new disguise

life is fickle,
life is difficult.
life is sweet and moody,
life is dark and broody.
we question things and people,
from the small child to the old and feeble.
so many questions that we still cant grasp,
from the real boring to the shocking truths that makes us gasp.
sometimes we are the ones who create these questions,
sometimes its another person.
life is already difficult as it is,
everyone knows this.
yet its our job as human beings to help the others out,
and not make them scream and shout.
however we feast on sadness and enjoy the hot taster of anger,
we yearn for thrills and danger.
we have monsters in the world waiting for us,
we can even find those monsters within us.
everyone yearns for release, a way out of life and its horrors,
we even get pushed to our breaking points and borders.
yet if we let those monsters win,
whats the point of living?
there will always be monsters,
but if we let them win, will we become a lost soul or a monster?
what do you guys think?
The drum beats, they started slow
Some times they faded,
But this time the sound is louder
The pace is faster than any other time before,
Its influence is heard around the world
Brother,
Against
Brother,
Family were once one
But the beats were heard, now against the other.
The beats fell upon the land
Where they defended,
Bodies did fall, as each beat hit the land.
Some tried to not listen,
But were pulled in by others hands
The beats fell from,
The sky,
From hand,
Upon the land,
The beats are being heard every where,
Will we once again be like before
Will we hear the beat,
As the innocent suffer, its not their beat
But it will touch others, it didn't before.
So loud in places
The beat of the drums is deafening,
Pray the beats never land upon your shore
The beats of war. now louder than before.
What's happen?
As the world is at war in many places.
The earth is kicking up many streams.
Here in japan and the USA
Rain and mud with damaging winds.
Fires in the West as heat bears down.
We want to know what's happen?
As the world, changes it is bringing different things.
Each day a shot is fired And a storm may fall
We want to know what's happen?
Nobody knows!

If only you would know, what I feel
how much I try not to.
Can u stop a river flowing
Or rein in the wind

Somethings just happen and it has happened to me
But I won’t even voice my deepest fears
so as not to face the reality that’s biting me

How I struggle and despair at the bonds that bind me
mentally and emotionally wrecked
Not knowing where to turn and how to handle
the grip it has on me worse than a vise

No freedom I feel and I want to break free
Twisting and turning and shifting between
two different shadows of fears

Whom can I call on to whom can I turn
I don't want it and I don't want to face it
Run is what my heart says, but cold are my feet
dead in its tracks and yet weightless

A curse!  A purge! What is it? I want to know!
Cannot fathom this searing tearing me part
Cold alone and empty, wishing I never could feel
Wanting to shut the drumming inside my head
and the pounding within my heart

Memories flash by me, strike me dead
loosing control and balance and falling
and upsetting the fine line I am walking.

Dreaming with eyes open, though
mindless voices shout around me
I see your face clearly, like you are right besides me
then I blank out, cross out, tell myself you fool
you are not a part of his life, he will never know….
Is it right to love so one so much and not be able to tell?
