POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Be Faithful
Sweet, bitter and lovely
Tear's stream down
An angelic face
As we roam the city streets
In times of our despair
We search for somewhere warm
In the cold winter weather
Not knowing wether
If we will find what we are looking for
I can only assume not knowing
At the present moment
Is only for the better
As we go on this journey
In this twisted life
I believe in the end
Everything
Yeah everything
Is gonna be alright
Tear's stream down
An angelic face
As we roam the city streets
In times of our despair
We search for somewhere warm
In the cold winter weather
Not knowing wether
If we will find what we are looking for
I can only assume not knowing
At the present moment
Is only for the better
As we go on this journey
In this twisted life
I believe in the end
Everything
Yeah everything
Is gonna be alright

I'm sad
Oh, so sad.
I wish I would heal
But my wounds conceal
A broken heart
A troubled past
A life full of stress
I call to God in my hour of despair
But It seems he ignores me
Oh, how I've become so lonely
Must I continue fighting
A losing battle?
Or is he gonna come and save me?
I started off as a christian
Now look at how this world made me
I'm crazy and it ain't getting no better
I labor in vain I think im losing it
Please Lord come and redeem me

I feel so alone
With no one to console to my soul
I can't stop the feeling of uncertainty
Of which way to go
I wish I had faith as big as a mustard seed
So I could move this mountain in front of me
O, Lord I pray that you will deliver me
From this evil world in which only the sinful prosper
For I do not love anything in this world any longer
Nor do I find any pleasure in it either
For I am bitter and become sour like bad wine
O, Lord how I wish you would translate me
And put out the pain that dwell within me
Set me on high in your kingdom...

Holding on
You called my name
From a distance
I heard your quiet whisper
I seen your beauty fade
Like the sunset just before dusk
What we had wasn't fiction
There was no fairytale
It was true love in essence
Til I became abhorrent to you
I wonder what voice you heard
When I called out your name
From the distance
Was I not the one who fit your future imagination?
You jilt me, you reject me, how could this be happening?
As my heart beats rapidly
I close my eyes
And imagine me
Close to you again
I pretend that everything is...

Pessimism
I am quite the pessimist
A lost cause
Just searching for something
Or somebody that could
Mend my broken heart.
I've grown quite skeptical
I understand the misunderstood
I gave you my life, and you threw me into the fire like wood
A grave sight, where you look down upon me
Even though I lay a lifeless corpse
My heart still beats
My mind still dreams
As I think of everything of what we could of
Should of
Will never be..
Swallowed up in your victory
As you destroyed me
I fade away into ashes of the Abyss
A lost cause
Just searching for something
Or somebody that could
Mend my broken heart.

Pain
I let my mind wander
Just to get the thoughts
of you out of my head
It's tragic
How it ended so quick
My notion was that
It would last forever
But today you're gone
And I'm all alone
And it's so wrong
It's so wrong.
Fearful for the things done
And for the things to come
The underlying problems
for a soul that grew numb
Times of despair
Left me with a black hole
A depth of solitude
Where a Love could grow
The love we once knew
Is gone like the wind
Not even a trace
Just a glimpse through the past...

God of Jacob
Keep your mind on God;
and he will not fail you,
In the Soul is Gold for the Spirit,
your blessing, is him, and he will prevail.
Be still, Be Patient;
And always remember.
There is pleasure in sin for a season
But The Lord Awaits for you in Heaven,
Under the sun,
Is Earth
And all of its deeds,
But to the Heaven's,
Is God's Glory,
And forever it shall be.

I fell on my knees
As a subtle breeze
Hit me in the depth
Of my very being
All the way to the core
The pain vanished
Instantly,
With no regret's
And no remorse
Like a soldier
At ease
Going back home
To his family
Who could give
No more
For war had
Became repugnant
But now he is free
As a subtle breeze
Hit me in the depth
Of my very being
All the way to the core
The pain vanished
Instantly,
With no regret's
And no remorse
Like a soldier
At ease
Going back home
To his family
Who could give
No more
For war had
Became repugnant
But now he is free

I made my journey
I walked
And stumbled upon
A beautiful forsythia
I forsook it
For my soul was too afraid
To appreciate such a creation of God
Because I am deeply sad in my heart
Cursed my soul
Now I'm falling apart
I travel alone
I chose this path
I'm fribble I know
I caught a scent
Of a place I know
Under a weeping willow
My true home
I walked
And stumbled upon
A beautiful forsythia
I forsook it
For my soul was too afraid
To appreciate such a creation of God
Because I am deeply sad in my heart
Cursed my soul
Now I'm falling apart
I travel alone
I chose this path
I'm fribble I know
I caught a scent
Of a place I know
Under a weeping willow
My true home

Photograph
just earlier i looked at a photograph
it was you and I
looking so happy in the snow
on a sled and man it was so cold
it was taken minutes
just before we went down a hill
which to me is kind of like
a metaphor of how our relationship ended
it's so tragic really in my opinion
i wish we coulda kept it going
cause to me thats the only life worth living
with you, lovely lady
beautiful angel, of my fucked up world
i miss the moments we had i cherish them in my heart
and im glad i had u for the little time we had
and...

Sisyphean
macerate me in your spite
dream me to be out of sight
push me away so far
that ill never be in your life
im choking on this despair
hoping that things will turn out right
but it aint right that im hurting so much
now i see why people say life aint fair
cause it ain't.
but i feel like i deserve this
see my purpose was to work this
but you had plots in your thoughts
to destroy it
so here i stand alone
i guess thats life
man what can you do
when the person you want to be your wife
dont want nothing to do with...
