Forevermore Enslaved
Slavery is a forbidden outcome
It's inhumane, I loathe at the act of such and to the ones that afflict
You shall burn forevermore, cowards
Taking freedom for granted
Till the end of your time, it is something you shall never have, setting out killing your own souls
Migrating to your death
Your days beneath the sun will be counted for all that you have done
Action shall be judged upon, mercy will not be speared
Sentencing will be given accordingly
Handed over to the parting, death will come along
Leading you away from faded skies
Ablazed...

Spiritual Transformation
I've had hole in my heart
The size of loves world
I've been locked out by it
Robbing self from pure joy
Drying up true passion from in my streams
Bones cracking, vitality of mortality
Thick sludge, moisture evaporating
Trombosis, poor circulation
Inner being hurts, blood vessels begin to burst
Wanting freedom from this curse!..
I've been down for so long...
I've just now begun to undergo change
I'm a changeling, see me change
Closing my eyes, breathing in the air that I breathe
Tasting the sweet breeze
Shedding...

Temple
From my creator, I was created!
From my creator, I was created!
From my creator, I was created!
Out of the earth
Rains from the sky
Thy vessel of clay is a temple
I've decorated my soul
Walls etched In ink like hieroglyphs
Pagoda reaching farther than clouds
To a place I was once so long ago
In the garden of eden surrounded by dandelion milk and butterflies, whence I was stitched
Before embedded in that secret place swaddled in placebo
You led me on with dying breath
Drum within my chest
Beating beneath my ribs...

The Greatest ( Catherine )
You came to me like that of quick silver
Never saw you coming, crossing paths
Embracing your atmosphere, accepting my plight
Cascading my hearts tears that bleed from my eyes
Falling rain driving like nails into you with pain
Drowning in darkness
Heavy are my lashes, lead is thy sky
Wandering
At this point finding myself dying
All alone with no place to go
World filled with emptiness and cobwebs
Infinite sadness
I'm a lost book
Inked pages filled with death
Black days are now the colour of my eyes and im doin...

Memorial Day
Bright stars and broad stripes
A banner that yet waves high in the sky, by dawns early light
Oh can't you see it, like the great north star that depicts just who we are
As we proudly hail, wearing it upon our sleeves all the way till twilight's last gleam
To the men and women who serve this great nation of ours, sacrificing their lives
A simple truth that lies and sears deeper than then that of a hot branding iron, a crest
Swearing it upon their hot breath
A vow, promising to serve and protect
Wearing upon their chest like a shield of faith and a sword by...

Bitter
Sky is stretched
As far as the eyes can see
A mass of thunderheads move in succession
Breeze sweeps against the pines
Birds chirp, perched upon branches of green canopies
Apollo blazes his beams piercing the billowy ceiling
Providing warm sustenance upon clay beings
Souls come alive in shadows
I'm surrounded by the outside
Washed in everything and sundried by ultraviolets
Kids at play feeling their laughter
I begin to desiccate
Moisture from inner being, escapes me
Clay begins to crack
Thoughts swim in around my head...

Hardened
No matter how hard I try
It dosent matter what I say or how it comes out
I seem to get burned by my actions
Are far too raw, reality too brutal to bare, for some
As hard as I try to absorb the impact
To ease someone elses pain from the cross fire of certain death that im undergoing
Finding myself alone in the world
Administering my own lacerations upon my heart
Gauze soaked in blood
Wounds so deep, rivers streaming rapidly
I'm beginning to see slow
Feeling the full capacity
There isn't any take backs in life
All that is said and done under...

Bring it
Blue Fluency
Full of force
Swaying your sexy spirit into my realm Softly lifting my BackSoul
Utterly entering into ecstacy
Never letting eachother go
As I take you into my night
Reign over me
Run thru the canyons of my valley
Polute me with the perfume of your essence Devouring, raping you in our garden of infernal delight
Offering your catholic heaven unto me
Rip my flesh
Make me bleed for you
Feeding your longing of wanton desires Smother me into your pale bosoms
Eating me alive
Til I drip from your chin ...

After Death
What is left after death
Seventeen moons, living a life breathing the same breath
All that I knew has now come to an end
Of what was everything beneath the clouds
Cradling what we were in my chafe calloused hands
Whats beyond our grave
Among a dozen white roses
To live from here, begin again
Where does one start to see past my scars
To resurrect after death
Become someone again in my own sky
Let the roses die, petals wither away
Preserve thy spirit in my darken plight
See beyond from where I am
Vows that were once golden...

Letting Go
Letting go of that in which kills me
So that I may live again, breathing no longer gasping.
Letting go of what in which hurts me
So that I may be able to love again
For once in my life to feel the blood rush straight to my head
Letting go in what blinds me
To finally see what I've been missing
Leaving the past behind
So that my days are clear for sunshine
Letting go of everything that hinders me
Dusting the debris from off my wings
Letting go of unwanted feathers
Soaring high above just beneath the sky into a new spring
...

Melt
I wanna be the ice upon your tongue
Slowly melting from your hot breath
Sliding all the way down your esophagus till im liquid
Flowing like a virus thru your rivers beneath your skin
To the chambers of your heart
Into the warmth of soul
Revolving all around you like earth does the sun

The fork
I am not who I am any longer
Time to shed old skin, old man
Embrace who we are now
Rebirth, reinventing of self
Flying like an eagle
Soaring that much more higher
Remember you're the one that left the nest back home
Feeling San Antonio looking Ohio
This poetic heart of mine
Will always be a kid inside, ceasing to die
I gots the butterflies to make it all happen
A notion, a plan
Time to wake up, man
We've ridden the last stardust dreams into its own dreams
Time to let them rest now
I'm a survivor,...
