In the darkest moments of life
You become my source of light

Say it once
if need be, twice
it begins to suffocate
if said thrice

The self changes more
    than the world
    it's less settled -
    human nature---typical!

Nemusa
no price on the wind,
whispered soft, "Forgive me, friend."
hearts mend without cost.
Sometimes an apology is not enough.

Winter is our reward
for the killing
of the
warmer days
For basting
in sunlight sauce
For holding
condensations
on the glasses
of the ways
Now we embrace
the cold
bare
naked in the trees
wet is their
slimy armour
dampened
by  dismay
by all
our needy greed

Being . . . Christian . . .

means . . .

being secure . . .

in sadness . . .

ìn pain . . .

without love . . .

beaten . . .

falsely accused . . .

lied to . . .

jailed . . .

and killed . . .

for a single
thought
in head

How much
worse then
for the rest
of the world

So amusing
just abusive
Words are blessings
in disguise

Pierce right
through me
Words of violence
deceitfully

Vows are choking
Only to be broken
Leaving pleasures
to blame


Just like
the viloence
the silence comes
crashing down

So amusing
Just abusive
Words are blessings
in disguise

powerless to my emotions.
paralyzed by my thoughts.

i want to taste laughter -
remember the ocean at night.
see the stars, smell the salt,
hear the joy echo in the air.
i want to feel alive again.

powerless and paralyzed.
ashamed for needing -
just a little too much.
maybe one day it’ll be alright

I was handed
   a glass full of life
And begged to
   to partake

To drink up
   he drunk
To swallow
   and forget
the strife

Instead of
   sweet dreams
Swilling concepts
   sprung to life

The more swill
    I swallowed
The tighter
    the grasp
I would yield

The pressure
    so great
The glass shattered
    life spilled

The blood
    gushed
But it was
    a relief

Just a pain
    I could understand
Something real
    I could handle
