My eyes cloud,
The tears come.
I try to fend them off to no avail,
I knew they would be brought to the surface.
Everything is crashing in on me...
My faith has withered,
My sanctuary has collapsed,
I have lost control,
That wonderful, beautiful control that I strive for has disappeared into the depths of this new void,
I am on the brink of exploding,
Salvation of Damnation is all that I have left,
The outcome eludes me fore it no longer rests in these shaky hands that I must call my own.

A Waste

Regret is a worthless emotion,
All it brings is pain,
No solutions come from it,
Just tears of sadness cried in vain,
You can't go back and change what is done,
All you can do is wait for the rising sun.

For Coach Bates

Beauty blossoms from tragedy,
Love is born amidst hate,
God calls to you in the darkest depths,
Where you would never expect his presence,
Faith is lost,
Faith is recovered,
Boundaries are penetrated,
The walls fall down.

He...
Fills my lungs with his air,
Keeps me cool when I'm burning up,
Lightens my heart with his tongue,
Loves my flaws,
Never lets me down,
Overwhelms my senses,
Burdens me with love,
Keeps me going when I just want the end to come,
Is my guardian angel.

— The End —
