The Mask
Jonah Long Feb 2016
They love the mask, but I can't breath through it's lies
They love the mask, but I can't see through it's eyes
They love the mask, but I can't speak with it's tongue
They love the mask, but I can't hear when it's on

My Universe
Jonah Long Mar 2016
She's as magnificent as the moon,
as bright as the sun.
More beautiful then a thousand stars.
The center of my universe

Fly away on my Jetpack
Jonah Long Mar 2016
I'm not gonna let that keep me on the ground, JETPACK!
When I encounter a setback, press that button ignite my JETPACK!
Launch pad shrinks, disappear. Fly through atmosphere.
Plasma's tingling and I'm hearing the words that occur to me for no reason. What am I alive for? What will I die for? Why do I believe to others I'm an eye sore?
Am I fueled by another engine, Depression and Aggression, Confusion and agitation, Fly away on my JETPACK!
Can you tell I like Jetpacks?

Jetpack
Jonah Long Mar 2016
I wish I had a jetpack, so I could fly away.
Fly back to the start before my mistakes,
and while I'm stuck here on the ground.
I will not be afraid, cause sometimes life
can be hard so just play it safe.

Pride is a poison
Jonah Long Apr 2016
In my mind I can imagine panacea for my poison.
My bruised and ravaged body crashes up upon the shore.
Sin leaks from all these wounds, and my friends abandon ship
As I float off to forever with deaths kiss upon these lips.
And I never asked for nothing, and that's just what i got
if my pride dies before i do as I fall I might be caught.
I wasted all my days chasing things that can't be seen.
As I come into your presence, now I know what humble means.
I wrote this after reading the Parable of the prodigal son

Only a poet
Jonah Long Mar 2016
Artists paint with ink and dyes
Others sculpt with clay.
But only a poet paints with words
What never fades away

Sadness can be addicting
Jonah Long Mar 2016
Hear the voices in the static,
Leave you crying in the attic,
and You think that you've just had it
but you turn into an addict.

Every word, a ship
every word is a ship, and I am its captain.

Cold heart beat
Jonah Long Feb 2016
Stupid and small, I hear it all
Gaze in the mirror, Alone in the hall
Who are you?
Suddenly now, I can feel a cold heart beat

Where can I be me
Is there somewhere on this Earth?

Think

Where are the answers,
Are they written in the sand
or found in the mind?

Life with the Lord
Jonah Long Jan 2016
Darkness and shadow
Is just life without the Lord
Light and a purpose
Is now my life with the Lord
He comforts me day-to-day

A cold silent night
Screams echo in the darkness
A life fades away
