fate
modern creed Apr 2013
Emotions tangled
Meshed through time
Lessons taught
Often thought fine

Decisions made
By our own minds
Change the course of nature
Disrupts the steady tides

Written on parchment
Epics from life
Coloring each thought
Sometimes stopped by knife

Ideas challenged by thought
Answered swift by reaction
Grouped by views and faith
Life by faction

History decides
What becomes of us
Smooth black lines
Shown beyond dust
one of many

Used to.
modern creed May 2015
Well I used to write
When I just couldn't fight
All the things wrapped inside
My cluttered, scattered mind
Feelings and thoughts
That just brought
All those bad, strained memories
Back to remind me of real life bad dreams

But that's old news
Things that I went through
Things I've given up
Will always be enough
Long as I have the one I need
Just so we won't bleed
Over the dreams in the night
When I used to write
