Christ can carry his own damn self
He does not need my portage
Rising on the third day was not his first miracle
I seem to remember that he can walk on water
So, why does he need a Christ-Bearer(opher)
To carry him across a river.
Others can simply wade across
Paying little heed to the
Half baked dreams
Encapsulated in this thing called
Religion

Many are the layers comprising this self
intact despite the continued pain
clinging to hope because there's always an angel
hell bent on living an authentic life
entangled in webs I unspin to understand
learning is my primary occupation
love is the answer in every case
even when it seems there must be more
intact despite the continued pain

hell bent on living an authentic life

learning is my primary occupation
love is the answer in every case
even when it seems there must be more

Killing time. It’s an easy target.
Another sunset framed in a rearview mirror, casting shadows before
night takes throne as their king.
Enticed as I am by the invitation, I seek not to serve, but to usurp the throne.

Mystery calls to her everyday;
Invades her heart, when
Silence is not enough to
Stifle the tragedies of
Yesterday.

All the words I twisted,
lies I've said,
every heart I've broken, has been because of her,
Xavierana, the monster that blackened my heart,
and though my hate has not faded,
nor has my rage abated,
do not think I have stagnated.
Even now I sit and smile,
remembering that I am unequivocally, free.

Well, it's not about me but about an ex, so if it doesn't work just tell me, but I really like what I did (and god knows that's rare). If you want the full version, with the last name go to my poems 
An angel in a dark world coming straight from heaven,
Nothing can stop your light from brightly shining,
Two eyes making me feel again as if I were seven.
Oh, you are my muse, the only one to leave me fining,
No one can make my head spin as easily as you,
I love everything about you innocently and passionately,
Ah, everyone must love you too!

Hell has no terrors for me
At the gates of
Damnation come
Everyday I embrace it
Salvation remains just out of reach
Rising from volcanic ash
I can smell the sulfur
Surely upon my flesh
I can feel the brimstone
Neatly fusing to my soul
Gone and dead are days of innocence
At the gates of
Damnation come
Everyday I embrace it
Salvation remains just out of reach
Rising from volcanic ash
I can smell the sulfur
Surely upon my flesh
I can feel the brimstone
Neatly fusing to my soul
Gone and dead are days of innocence
