I buried my anger in the ground
out of sight and out of sound
buried hate and fostered love
got the message from above.
Found the truth and cut out lies
sang His praises to the skies
gave forgiveness, got it back
mended all my hidden cracks.
Got the blessings that I need
cut off envy, swallowed greed
gave my burdens up to Him
turned my back against all sin.
Fed myself the Bread if Life
fought off Satan, eased the strife
put His mighty presence first
from His fountain, I don't thirst.
Became instead, a new creation
raised my soul to a higher station
wrapped myself in His great Being
aware of beauty I was seeing.

My heart is scattered,
While my mind runs rapid,
Why does this happen,
Just following the pattern,
Did this attempt even matter,
Climbed farther then ever,
To slide back down the ladder,
I sit silently shattered,
Recovery broken and battered,
Giving up on the battle,
Is never worth the hassle.

I wasn't the ghost, you were the echo..

I know you don't see me
I know even if you could, you wouldn't look
But I'll wave goodbye anyway.
