trust in the change
have faith in the flux
it's always this way
running in and out of luck
Nate ere Jul 2014
life engine turning
by god fuel burning
for a system still learning
how to be, how to be
Nate ere Jul 2014
Don't settle, don't stoop
To the men in the chute
Funneling through
A perpetual loop

The choices they made
were a crooked facade
Don't you know tainted lovers
All fall the same way

The sin that lives in every strain
Appears to some a noble vein
Time will rend, as evils bane
But the men aligned remain

For how could we forget
The eternity of echoes spent
Singing praise to harmony
An homage paid by all to be

And if my soul depart today
The ending note would surely stay
Commune to Him a final prayer
Let one more song afflict the air!
Nate ere Jul 2014
This house of mine shines light divine
Yet every night the windows pine
For few are they - like rooms to stay
With tenants working all the time

They're deep where all the doors are locked
but the walls are thin, they'll hear you knock
desires shift and walls are wrought
It's quite a convoluted lot!

Say unto they! He says to me
This house divided cannot see
Communication is the key
And know my will intimately

It stands best that I alone
should take command today
possess this house - a mobile home
lest it drive itself astray

I stay as guest and servant too
The eager son, the master cue
So many rooms remain alight  
To navigate this endless night  

A strong foundation thus unfolds
A hearth of everlasting coals
the embers stir, the fire grows
To warm my everlasting soul

This house of mine shines light divine
In rooms to stay and halls to bind
I'm finding ways to pass the time
Forever in the house of mind
Nate ere Jul 2014
Out on the brink of that infinite sea
The inimical tide
Crashing over me
Adventure and death
A beautiful turmoil
Ever so, I hold my breath
Peacefully loyal

Still suffering
For a stay-at-home life
Stale, boring, uninspired
Clandestine, cozy security
Direction null, for now
He'll make a story of you yet
Nate ere Jul 2014
Our story of love
Like lighting a match
Starts with some friction
Just give us a scratch

Watch us ignite
Spontaneous, blinding
Heat and delight
Set the story unwinding

As we burn through the ages
Holding onto frail black memories
Faint embers of the first blast
Still warm today - by the living past

Now the end is near
And we know that glow will fade
Yet there is no fear
For our noble love is brave

A final shrinking moment
To share with you again
Before we share a wisp of smoke
Drifting in the wind
