I love life Oh how long it has been Since I have felt truly free To run singing in the fields as a wild Horse in the wind Inside my temple embers burn Brightly a fire life burns within I am a madly wild independent woman like a mare I have been kept on these reigns on this trail take this bit out of my mouth if only they would listen to me I consider them friend they consider me servant I just bucked my owner off and he lost control of me I am now running so far away from those people That family should have known better You cannot tame a wild horse not one as wild as me Quite a while it's been and I am in Green pastures I found my little foal oh how happy I am to be home again with my baby again free and peaceful

My Heart Song
i can see the fight within you, it tears you apart, are you a monster, you ask? will you allow yourself to be a monster? your hands they can create, but it is much easier to destroy, i have been where you have been, pushing feeling, down                                      down                                                down but please hear me out, they will only come bubbling back with a vengeance you try to shield yourself, from the hurt, but you’re only locking yourself away, from all you could know,

Don't Push Away
You build your walls higher With each passing year With every new heartache Laying new bricks of fear Until there's four walls around your heart And every relation is doomed from the start For no one can live from inside of a cage Breakups tend to illicit your rage But Show the world yourself intact Vulnerability is a courageous act Don't let rejection make you afraid Please tear down those bricks that you've laid Before you're buried in the ground In the casket framed by walls around Free yourself before it's too late Or a loveless life will be your fate Put your egos to the side If you truly want to feel alive Don't follow the trend like the rest Failure is part of the road to success And hating love is the latest fashion If you ask me, the world needs more compassion So when push comes to shove Move right on and spread the love Hold your head up high With each goodbye Let it go, don't wonder why Always Give love another try It's the only thing that never dies.

Casket Walls
the god dripping oozing thRough the air and saturating the atmosphere blending into the fibers (of shoes, and shirts, and swEaty collars, and slacks, and pews, and smelly green carpet) and People crash to knees and bend themselves to a force that constricts them guilt gripping at nEcks and sour acid rises in my throat as I cannot fathom or obey an invisible god that drowNs nations in hostility…judgment…hatred and mummifies weak minds turning benevolence into maligniTy churning a boiling cauldron of manipulation—disguised as a sickly sugar my chest bursts in panic and I need to run from the ashen, needy, suffocating limbs of a body whose sickly roots control the masses … amen. and the senseless prayer has ended.

REPENT
Life behind shadows, Society beckons, rules please conform. Truth is lost, we fall to dust. Now open the soul to wanderlust.
