Acceptance of the unknown.
I can feel a force in Surround of my plain,,,,
Unknown is this entity yet strong is its Aura.
Unknown is its goal.
Unknowing is its true power.
Tis strange n daunting,
A wide eyed shadow within my own follow.
Long has it been in the slip stream of the breeze on my back.
Acceptance is now clear,
Although the unknown is a fear,
Tis faith within my moral compass and a belief around my purpose.
To Acknowledge this presence while being honest to my host...

Internal direction
In these times of distress in uncharted waters.
When the road is a mess and I'm done taking orders.
Well over this pain in my mind, and running out of so much more then just my time.
I'm over this static on my station, I just don't understand.
Always a struggle for direction while I feel I ain't nothing but a faceless reflection.
"Dam" I screwed up my own suicide how fucking useless am I.
Yeah I was choking, cutting and bleeding in the dark just consumed in the thoughts of where it all fell apart.
Without an ounce of belief in my self and a cold dull void in...

Skitzz love,
To scared to run, yet to mighty to fight, to brave to confront and to timid to cry.
When all he seeks most is that look in your eye...
She reveals my best to his worst, my sweets and his sours.
Shes my angel, his demon our sugars and salts.
A hearts true reach through his uncleaned soul.
From villains and saints in the bloodied cuts and bruises in these lust crazed moments.
The scare within my eyes and the guilt on his face.
There is truly nothing more uplifting then our lovers sweet taint.
No man could take and no body could steal,
But she's...
When all he seeks most is that look in your eye...
She reveals my best to his worst, my sweets and his sours.
Shes my angel, his demon our sugars and salts.

The scare within my eyes and the guilt on his face.
There is truly nothing more uplifting then our lovers sweet taint.
No man could take and no body could steal,
But she's...

Back seat driver
Cast out and banished,
It was set aside to be forgotten.
Taken of the shelf before it ever had a chance to grow.
My happiness was a crewl joke from the start,
With my pride the only punchline.
Always laughing at and never with, buried in shame,
with the shovel lost in time.
I am corrupt and harassed from the entity within.
The spinster, joker and the thief simply rolled together for another cliché from within.
Mellon collie, depression, gloom or disgust it doesn't matter which.
They are all a sad case of my insanity.
Day to day I...

Last words.
Its a shame it took me so long to discover the power of words,
I am not quite like the rest, an animal I am but the beast you portray I am not.
I have regrets, more then most I presume,
But the pervertions on a rather constant stream that have invaded my mind............ That part doesn't matter, because you will never, ever fucking understand the never ending abuse I see in my mind, the horrific things that happen to some of the ones I love most in my mind, imagine it was your own, you all ready have,,,, but until you can see and live with these atrocities in your thoughts...

Our radiant light
Radiating upon us, such a presence too be felt.
It was a light too bright to blind.
With such a fire like aura yet like a cool breeze to the touch.
Prosperity within a bed of roses tis what we would find.
An exuberance of euphoria will be bestowed in good time.
Humility and understanding, these are both treasures more priceless then gold.
Free choice with knowledge, it was a new eden we where two mould.
But a realization of this light...
As Already inside of us it remains. ...

A lie
They said from Satan we were blessed.
It was a gift in the shadows.
A key to Pandora's chest.
Yet the knife was on our neck.
Deceit from the darkness.
A promise which could not be met....

A lil false hope
In life we live and mistakes are made.
While time is unstoppable and turning back is far from possible.
Words are impaired and actions are spoken.
Lessons learnt and people hurt.
Feelings replaced and hearts are broken.
The old will die and the young will grow.
Wars will b waged and victories brought.
The inevitable sorrow and the never ending lie.
Souls are caged and battles fort.
Sometimes happiness is only a thought......

A letter to my self
Your first entry just maybe your last.
It is there for ironic that this very moment will soon be your past.
There is a need too steady this rhythm, step by step, this is love not mayhem.
A change for good, now a change for better.
Tis time to move forward.
I need to trust within and without.
Why am I always with the vendetta.
I dwell on this concept, I burn for this too be true.
Twas my light that was forsaken.
It is now my honesty in which has spawned into a blurred line,
too in which I am unable too see through.
But through is...

Drought...
Stranded and forgotten, as out of sight is out of mind.
Just left to rot like all our dead live stock.
Not a drop of rain in years, our mother nature can be so unkind.
We are suffocating in this drought,
"Fuck em" the government said, they can go with out.
Our barren land is worse then before, to many suicides on our farms, far to many of these tough souls just can't bare any more.
They work these lands to put food on our plates, with blood sweet and tears, yet now look at their fate.
Far to many have lost it all,
We pray to the heavens now for...
