I remember salvation
on the days when I fell
It would call my name
from the depths of hell
And bring me back to
what I always knew
That God would save
me and save you too

But I don't hear my name called anymore
ThePoet Sep 2014
I'd rather be a poor shepherd

than a rich sheep.
ThePoet Dec 2014
The system is to blame the next,

society blames society.
ThePoet Sep 2015
I looked at 
you close, 
to find you a 
stranger now.
I looked at 
you closer, 
to find you 
always were 
somehow.

Love, the only thing
that needs to be said,
to make the whole of
the universe rest its head.

The reason tears dry
after oceans are shed,
and why bleeding stops
after rivers are bled.

The reason every soul
had ever been bred,
and why all the world
today still isn't dead.

Love, the only thing
that needs to be said,
to make the whole of
the universe rest its head.

That's the power of love.
ThePoet Dec 2016
I'm running out of time
and the clock is ticking fast
But I'm trying to erase
all the damage in my past

I'm running out of time
and these minutes never last
But the darkness that I face
is the shadow that I cast
ThePoet Oct 2015
I would dry your eyes if it
meant drowning in your tears

I would calm your demons if it
meant falling with your fears

I would fight your struggles if it
meant suffering your strife

I would trade your death if it
meant giving you my life
ThePoet Oct 2015
The soul is the body of the heart,

The heart conceives the feeling,

The feeling births the mind,

The mind impregnates the thought,

And while the thought is in labour,

It breeds a child named,

"Word".
ThePoet Jan 2015
Breaking trust is
like breaking glass,
it could never be
put back the same.
ThePoet Sep 2022
They oppose the poor
and the truth tellers,
deflecting modesty
among the crowd

They close the door
with the gossiping sellers,
rejecting honesty
strong and proud
ThePoet Aug 2016
In the softness
of my heart
In the hardness
of my mind
I'm searching
for my hate of
you, but love
is all I find
ThePoet Apr 2015
I told you I would
leave, but I never
said goodbye
I told you it
would end, but I
never said it'd die
I deleted you out
of my life, but I
never had you blocked
I closed the door
to you, but I
never had it locked
ThePoet Mar 2016
Who are we to say,
that a love is not to be?
That a love does not belong,
and can never be set free?

Who are we to think,
that a kind is not our people?
That a kind is far beneath us,
and will never be as equal?

Who are we to feel,
that a face can look unusual?
That a face must be a canvas,
and be painted to be beautiful?

Who are we to judge?
To say love is prohibited?
To think below of others?  
To feel minds can be limited?
ThePoet Aug 2015
It is not the
existence of God
in which I find
myself a doubt,
but the existence
of my own in
which I find
myself without.
ThePoet Jul 2016
The words will come
when you're sound asleep
And you've lost it all
and have nothing to keep

When your mind is shallow
and your pain is deep
And your eyes resemble
the clouds that weep

The words will come.....
ThePoet Sep 2015
I live in my
own world,
inside of this
cruel world,
awaiting the
next world.
ThePoet Oct 2015
Let me take your heart
to where it should lie,
in a place that consists
of only you and I.

Let me take your heart 
to where it should be,
in a world that exists
for only you and me.
