They talk with those eyes but my silence is haunting
Do they not hear me when I cry
Do they not listen to my voice
In its throws of hunger
The river is wide
And my flow is strong

They cannot beat me
This win is gone stale
To sing out their minds
Is a mission in my will
My prison is walled
Yet doors to these fields
Stay open
  
Four years and two days
Have passed
My land has become my eden
Yet they still keep me
As I sing
Through the silence
Of the drunken river

Flames of anger feeding my breath
As I walk through the valley
The valley of death

No fear in my purpose
My march to victory near
The doors will open

I'm alive
This voice is loud
The earth awakes

Fear not into your future
I am here to hold your hand
Take my choice

Live a little
Grow with me
This place is our oyster

This day I seek peace yet I find the souls
That surround me
Seek no such light
Their fight is of a purity that no one can touch
This need of a  purpose
A need for a life

This day let the good in from the dark
The earth lowered to the sight of the sun
To bring life into hope
Troubles long gone to a place
That lifeless lones need no introduction

Those souls of hell
Had  a place of warmth that
Chilled you to your bones
Thoughts of fighting ingested
Through breaths of fire
Fed from the deep deep
Pits of tartarus

Besides,here we are and I am happy
And this happiness needs no introduction
My peace is made
Those souls around me are empty of war
Yet full of words that have no voice  
One day they will see the light
Be their anger
Paper torn

The passion in my anger
Saw my rage
Tasted in your eyes
My sorrow
Eaten from your heart

You doubted all my wisdom
I hated all your lies
My fear of never finding

This love
Forever blind

My burst of giving
In to you
The pain I felt my life
This need
This world has stopped
I'm changing lanes
This fish has come alive

The pond is full
Yet hunger waits
My hook is frail and torn
The hurt inside is red from raw
I fear a lovers burn
Did a little rework without realizing I had already put original on here ...plonker !!!

Mother's pride

My mom taught me how to tie me laces
She taught me how to cry
I used to comb her hair back and
Make it look
beehive  
She used to bring me ice cream
Whenever I was ill
And fetch me favorite teddy
I'd cuddle him
Big Bill  
We'd snuggle on the sofa
Or play a game of cards
she'd shown me what
love is

Unconditional


Her cakes were something heaven sent
And gone before the night
My clothes all ironed
Socks and pants
we always wondered why  
She'd cook me dinner
Shepherds pie
With pudded rice to follow
Fighting for the burnty bits
A battlefield did follow
I'd come in bleeding
Knee all red
A soothing voice
A mothers gift

Unconditional

I'm proud to call my mom
Eh mom
I'm proud to be her son
I'm proud she gave me
Everything

Unconditional

Eyes come closed to the darkness
Mind open to the thoughts of another age
Long long ago when the grass was green
And the hills smiled full
Full of golden

This was the time
This was the place
Where my pa held my hand
Where we played
Where we danced

Long long ago
When the trees held the fruit
Was the time for the present
And life for the full
Where we chased and laughed
Fell into the grass
Where he held my hand

Pillow wet from a blurred view
His hand no longer touching
As I remember today
Bring me the past
So I may live this way
Long long ago was a place I remember
Memories of the best of days
Where
My pa held my hand

The voice with no name whispered unto me
Live your life
You know you can
Be bold
Be strong
Believe

My head lowered
I knew this right
Yet scared did I just know
How could I live like I could want
How can it be just so

Each step
Each breath
That sound in my heart
Playing
Running
Beating
This call to run away


The voice with no name whispered unto me
It's time to make the change
The chains no more
The holds no bared
It's time to run the world
