Horrors
 Nov 2017 Crestfall

The ones who have seen the worst horrors
And who are still standing tall
Are the ones who are the bravest and the most courageous

When you're not around is when I feel homesick, because my house was no longer my home - you were.

Judging
 Nov 2017 Crestfall
Barker
You want to know my opinion on judging?
Are you sure?
You asked
So don't stop me.
Judging is dumb.
Everyone knows it.
It tears everyone down.
What right does anyone have to judge?
No one has the right to.
We've all messed up at one point.
Lied,
Cheated,
Said something we wish we could take back.
Admit it.
You've done it too.
What if I read you a story,
Starting: “Once Upon A Time”.
And you realized that it was your life,
Spelled out on every line,
Would you hear my voice with wonder,
As it brushed across each word,
And pray my arms had the strength to hold,
The truth about your world,
Would your view on life be different,
And would it shock you the most to find,
That the things you thought defined you,
Could be summed up in just two lines,
And all the ones you took for granted,
The ins and outs of every day,
Play a bigger part in who you are,
Than you'd ever dared to say,
Would you wonder at the pages left,
And all the pages that they'll lead,
Then vow to make each moment,
One that you'd be proud to read,
Because there is a story of your life,
But it's you that holds the pen,
And I hope you fill the pages right,
Before you reach the end.

Purpose
 Nov 2017 Crestfall
Barker
I always thought I didn't have a purpose in life.
It wasn't until you called me because you couldn't deal with life
Did I finally understand my purpose.
When you were at your worst I made you smile and laugh
And everything suddenly makes sense

Despair

During times of despair
It’s your humour, comfort, and devilish grin
That keeps me from leaving

You III

Barker
I've been so close to dying
So close on the verge of death
I go down my list of reasons I live for
And it's always you
That ends up stopping me

Before I met you I was dim
My wick was at the end of it's life
And just when I thought I was going to go out
You brought the spark back into my soul
And now the fire within me has never burned so brightly

Your smile
Your laugh
Your devilish grin
Your sense of humour
Your eyes
Your personality
Are the reason
I'm still here

Humans are afraid of the unknown
That is why we search
Day and Night
For an explanation
of the unexplainable
