Words failed to elicite
Tangible trust
Reliance on hope
Became a must

The actions spoke
Of indecisive cowardice
Flaunting false pride
In self righteousness

The heart aches
Bearing weight measured
Slowly relieved by tears
And simple pleasures

Demons taunting
"Give us your life"
Angels gathered shouting
"Take hold of your life"

The ground readily waits to consume mere mortals flesh
The heavens prepare and rejoice when the soul takes solace

Eternal life or eternal death?
Excruciating to be anticipating
An unpleasant existence
Warring between the two

Steady the powers inside
Alignment and balance is key
Otherwise they're let loose
everyone becomes prey

Disorder, chaos, havoc, panicked fray
Where did all their "knowledge and intelligence" go?
Actions to reactions or reactions to actions
There will be an end to it all
At some point in time.

Rinse lather repeat
Wince tatter delete

Picking apart emotions
Building up solutions

Repairing walls with mortar
De-clutter you hoarder

Feelings fray
Decisions stay

There's been some brainwashing
Now I'm doing some brain washing

I walked along a black ice capped road
One evening not lacking the bite of winter.
As cars hummed by with lights blinding
I thought how easily I could die
So I sprung out in song about my death
Singing gaily and chipper
I played out a scenario of a hit and run collision
My head was cracked on the pavement upon impact
And I was laying there singing "oh they left me, see how they left me. Not a care in the world, they must have thought I was a speed bump."
I questioned my sanity to have seen and entertained such gruesome morbid thoughts but I realized I was in good spirits.
Jovial and giddy
Skipping down the road
So I questioned my psyche
Then I realized there is nothing to fear about death when you're really alive.

Poetic words fall away
when spoken to the great minds
not consulting their hearts.
The words are read over once aloof
Oh bla oh bore such useless waste of time.

Will days/months/years pass by
Before their meaning is known
Those words doth linger
When Memory serves to recall
Did you catch that?
Did you receive anything at all?

Great minds will fail
Not consulting with their counter part the heart.

I war with myself to stave you my wrath.
For kindness to be deemed weakness
None other followed my tedious path
Judgement warrants retribution
Of the careless or deliberate actions
Your vanity and pride can not love purity and innocence
Rule over them and put them away
Any mercy or grace will not come from me.
I speak for myself
When I say
I would rather see you down on your knees
Humbled by the reality of your needs
I would laugh at your desperate pleas
Just as you have laughed at me
Although it is not my place and I can not say what you deserve
I know you will get what you are worth

You tried to hide me.
You attempted to dim me.
You even endeavored to vanquish me.
You don't know my origin.
You thought you were god!?
You are nothing more than an empty shell tossed to the wastebin only to hit and miss.
Your life is spent on the ground
Meant to collect dirt, diseases, and infections.
As long as you are apart from light you will bring your own demise.
The desolation you see around you is only a glimpse of the deprivation, decay, and decomposition hungrily growing and drawing towards you.
Held back and restricted by the innocence and purity of a precious child. Through the grace and mercy of a forgiving compassionate heart the wrath and stench of death is subsided and contained.
The time is soon at hand to make a choice.
Whether you'll seek a different way or continue in your blind dismay.

I told you how I chose you
you rejected all but a piece of me

I share an extension of my life force
you run away as if I am the one that couldn't be trusted
It's true that we are one in her
Conflicting views on what's best
Will literally tear our baby apart

I asked "do you want me to love you?"
Reply already! Answer clearly!
Stop this "an US right now would complicate things."

Don't call me baby
Don't say I'm yours
Don't you dare pretend to own me
When you can't even take interest in the rest of me.

I'm not caressed by your empty words.
I'm not comforted by your fleeting groping.
I'm not blind to your deception and slight of hand.
In, through, and after all that why would I want to love you?

The only answer I return to is this:
I have been given eyes to see

See pass your flaws and weaknesses
See pass your insecurities and smoke screens
See pass your failures and attempts
See pass what isn't really you

I've been given eyes to see
And what I've seen I love wholeheartedly
If only you too could have eyes to see.
