I know, I keep using the same old rhymes
But I'd say they get a bit more joyful every time
Some day I'll have my final draft
The true purpose of my craft
Just give me time, and you'll see
The poet I was made to be
I know some day when I publish my work, it won't all sound the same, because it will be my final and most encouraging draft....Does that make sense? The purpose of the imagination God gave me

Although I know I'm not alone
In the silence I feel so far from home
I cannot hear our song from here
To the point I can surrender to fear
But I won't let myself go under
For I know our march still will cover
Though I am not with you, know I am fighting alongside you.

This is another sound I know of
The marching of our feet
Our battle cry
The chorus that we sing
Lah-dah, lah-dah, lah-dah
To drown out our demons
Together
We sing
We march
We fight each others battles
But in these seasons of silence
We can feel so far from home
But know you're not alone
We are with you
You are not alone.

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea. And ideas are bulletproof.

i feel like i'm still holding so much back
i'm sorry, i'm still too scared to get attached

Gabriel Bonney Nov 2018
This is why I really hate the weekends
Because I'm faced with all my demons
They've been gone for a while
The silence is when I'm put under trial
When I'm tossed into this parched land
But I'll hold tightly onto the water in my hand
I'll rely on the peace granted through the pain
Like a drought awaits Your replenishing rain
