When Love Crashes

   The sky turns dark, Lightning crashes
See the anger in his eyes
Puts his fist through a wall, plaster crashes
Is there any truth among the lies

Nothing can stop love when it crashes
Hearts are bound to break
The foundation gets weak and it crashes
Everything is more than they can take

Into the family, the news crashes
Into their friends too, nothing logical applies
The ripple effect so swiftly crashes
It hurts so many when love dies

Fighting begins and blame crashes
Where did they go wrong
The radio wave crackles and crashes
Hear the pain in the song

The fire that burned a proud flame
Reduced now to nothing but ashes
And it’s more than a crying shame
As Jesus sheds a tear When Love Crashes

Dead To Me

       Everything that came before
Is just a vision in the rear view
Faded away like a dream or
A vision in the misty morning dew

When your hand reached out for me
It gave me a reason to live
It was your forgiveness and love
That helped me heal and forgive

But with a heart so broken
And the shadow that was cast
Like a snake shedding its skin
I was slow to shed my past

As the picture of the painting
Began to become clear
I was able to see all the Angles
That you sent to be near

And everything had to open
My eyes so that I could see
I had to become dead to myself and
The past Had to become Dead To Me

Thank You Jesus!!!

I Stand Victorious

      From the Beginning worthless
It was etched into my brain
Like a fire breathing Dragon over a
Mid evil kingdom Darkness would reign

There was always an echo that rang
The barrage of those words of steel
I was Like a slave of the Roman Empire
With whip lashed scars that wouldn’t heal

I began to hate myself and it was like
Being consumed by a black whole
I secluded myself from the world
And I lost my self control

I secured my heart in a vault
Complete with a lock and chain
I didn’t care if I lived or died
Because I lived with so much pain

I was my own worst enemy never being
Known to Be gregarious
But I was saved by Jesus and his Angels
And now I Stand Victorious

Curse Of The Undine

    So beautiful she was a spirit of
The Water, a rarity to be seen
Some say she’s a myth
But some believe in the Undine

A water Nymph able to become a human
If she fell in love with a human male
But there’s a price to pay if he was
To cheat and cause their love to fail

According to legend the male cheater
Is forced to consciously stop breathing
He is to end his own life because of his
Betrayal and his will of deceiving

I’m not gonna speculate on the myth
Though sailors swear of their reality
I’ve got no proof or documentation
To Sway, be it legend or a fantasy

But if Ancient accounts are factual
Betraying such a creature isn’t so keen
Such an act of disloyalty one would
Succumb To The Curse Of The Undine

Undine pronounced (Uhn-Deen)

The Lost

     She was so young and so pretty
She was Daddy’s little girl
He told her she could be anything
A Ballerina, she loved to twirl

She loved clear summer nights
She spent them stareing at the Stars
Maybe she could be a female astronaut
And be the first to walk on Mars

She had so much potential and
She had so many dreams
But she fell in love with a guy
Making promises and working schemes

Nothing ever seemed to go her way
She was overwhelmed with her situation
All she ever wanted was to be happy
She began using artificial stimulation

She ultimately became addicted
And her heart and soul became the cost
She had so much life to be lived but now
She’s all but invisible and one of The Lost

Drop

       The orchard of Apple trees
Was once the best crop
The branches are bare now
There’s no Apples to pick or drop

Outside my window I see a Butterfly
In a flutter ballet and a Rabbit hop
In my emptiness is the sound of silence
You can hear a pin drop

There’s a pain so unbearable
My heart is breaking, no signs it will stop
In my overwhelming weakness
To my knees I am forced to drop

My mind is in chaos and in a
Whirlwind I am spinning like a top
The clouds have turned grey
The rain started to drop

My uncle Dean has passed away
I have seized in function I’ve closed shop
From my eyes uncontrollably
My tears begin to Drop

But Not You

   I was willing to sacrifice myself
With love and passion and vow to be true
I was all in with no lies or alibis
But not you

I told myself a thousand times
That I shouldn’t
But against all odds I did
But you couldn’t

You asked me to take a leap of faith
With hesitation I did it
Then for whatever reasons
You didn’t

Love for me is like Russian roulette
I took the gun and I held it tight
I pulled the trigger for you but
You killed it and said it wasn’t right

I poured out my heart and soul, my fear
My hopes and dreams in a pile of spew
I let myself be vulnerable
But Not You
