You took down both a lion and a bear. But not Delilah there. She was your glass slipper. Pretty little backstabbing hair clipper. She sold you out to the Philistines. Nonetheless, God allowed you to blindly pull down their temple beams. Oh Samson, strength was both your virtue and vice. In giving away your secret you paid the ultimate price.

Bringing Down the House
We are wanderers, not by choice, nor by right, nor by crimes, but by fate. We are wanderers, living in; a shell, a roof, a sky, a cloud, and a soul. We are Wanderers seeking to keep fit and survive. We are Wanderers of the earth.

Man in a mysterious world, filled with all things, both good and evil, we always see.. But amidst decisions where does he get directions? Who endeavors to weigh his thoughts for him? Who faces the What ifs? Who is made afright by humble Fear? Ofcourse its thats one, yeah that one person, which is you! Be strong! Conquer! Fear no Fears.

Life is like a stream of gushing waters. Yeah even a river that flows ceaselessly.. The waves swashes the waters, and it is tossed thro and fro, yes even in an unperiodic manner. The river of life never allows rest, it has a lot to keep all occupied.

This life is like a drama scene, scene by scene. Different plays and characters in the scene. Some enjoying, some striving, some suffering. Everyone has a role to play in this dramatic world. For there is no escape route for the babies for they have to take part in the scene. Everyone has his/her lifestory with a begining and an end. No one is saved from the scene, except he be dead.

₹ THIS LIFE ₹
There is a barber shop built on the ashes of Babylon, where men lose their ******** with shame that skip to the fourth kid, There once was place where Samson's hairstyle was a treasure map. A place where lost man travel Where David found no stone where Noah built an Ark but storm never came. When we pass through that place even the stars we use for direction disappear.

BIBLICAL BARBER SHOP
You are God sent You are a walking church bell and every time you take a step you ring, and I swear even atheists stop what they're doing just to praise you I look into your eyes and watch as the lamp of your body illuminates your soul and understand what Matthew meant when he said you were full of light You speak the language of angels and the vibrations of your voice cause me to go so deep into meditation that it causes an imbalance in all 114 of my chakras, and you always wonder why I only speak to you telepathically Every time our lips meet I go 6,000 years back in time and relive the moment Adam and Eve took a bite out of the forbidden fruit and the taboo taste never fails to be worth it I know that you're God sent because you have God's Scent I know that you're God sent because you ascend into the sky with wings as strong as Samson before he was tricked and deceived by Delilah I know that you're God sent because you're bound to betray just how they all betrayed our Messiah

Oh my dear Samson Please, save me The wicked wizard had put his black witchcraft on my heavy heart —it turned into stone and drown me deep into Bermuda Triangle

Dear Samson
he stares off and inhales slow death green lungs red eyes his soul reminds me of the sun older than time and burning slowly his halo hangs undecided between his body and his aura deep purple, guess that's why his voice sounds like purple haze with green lungs red eyes here I come, baby. and he starts walking like there's no star in the sky that could stop him walking through the clouds, riding through the sky he's the chosen one gold streaks running through his long hair Samson, your time has come. you don't know who you're talking to. I long to know the secrets woven into your dreadlocks yesterday's broken song and the beginning of the universe what your god sounds like and what it's like to have god running through every vein in your body. I'm a cute little heartbreaker with a tar black heart let me take you over. back roads, cold night inhaling poison blasphemous hotbox in the house of The Lord clear mind tainted soul green lungs red eyes you're enticed by the darkness shining behind mine unintentional seductress with unholy motives so I get you to the backseat of my car inhale the smoke dripping from my lips the cyanide laced flower you cling to the light fades from your red eyes as realization hits your last thought asking why seven inch bloodstained blade torn from hearts of the many before pulled from my belt I cut the purple haze from your soul with every strand I steal the gold fades I can hear your god see the secrets of the universe woven in your dreadlocks watching the universe begin mesmerized I don't know if it's day or night anymore, or if it's the end of time but I've taken you over oh, samson. and then he rises, his hands on my throat he sees me standing over him gets up and screams his voice brings pillars down, the house of god obliterated in this moment I'm all his his rampage beginning. in the midst of his purple haze green lungs red eyes. the revolution is mine.

A baseline that you feel in your chest, Humming thick in your ears, And your mouth, You just want to live in their blur of impactful words, That you don’t understand, Because it’s just a baseline to you, But have you ever felt so proud of someone? That what they’re saying, or what they’re playing or who they’re being, Becomes the only thing that’s keeping off the rain, And you can see every tooth in the room, Every heart that becomes unbroken and every heart that breaks, Well it’s a shooting star, Baby it’s gold dust, Because his gaze is tattooed on your body, Under your sweater, Under your skirt, Yours is a crime scene littered with his fingerprints, But you’re no ****** victim, Jackie, Jane, Joan, Wife, Mother, Daughter, Survivor, Protector, Warrior, Woman, Know when it’s dark, And subtle shadows are all that remains of your bodies, Finding all the bones in your shoulder, The piano strings that move your fingers, And each indentation of your spine, Is a bible, But God won’t give him strength, It’s your skeleton that is fortitude, You’re the dragon protecting the castle, You’re Rosie the Riveter, You can hold up the world with perfectly manicured hands, You will listen, And you will care, Let him breathe in the fractions of your soul that you exhale, That way, Every standing ovation and every wound that heals, Is saturated with the influence of you, Though you don’t understand, That baseline you can feel in your chest, It is your to be proud of too.

he still holds your name in his mouth like his first communion, his hands would still fit the mold of your hips if only you'd let him try. you can remember the light of after, the gleam of the scissors as you tried to make him pretty, his strength littering the floor sort of like the plates in your kitchen now, that kind of damage. it must've took a whole lot of something for that to happen, they say to you. the aftermath is not pretty. without his flower petal ponytail he is no longer pretty. it's not a coincidence that his name sounds like falling cities, how you never bothered to learn to sleep alone.

The first time that Delilah saw Samson she said to herself, “That man will be mine.” she said, “Yes.” He laughed when she first begged to bind him, “I cannot be bound.” He declared, “I have brought one thousand men to their knees.” She replied, “So have I.” and on her knees she showed him how. Their favorite game to play was Pagan, he would act as sacrifice and she, the priest, teaching him to worship at her temple, teaching him the best death was deathless. Long before she cut his hair, she made him weak. Long before they gouged his eyes, he was blinded.
