Fight Don't hide
Silent whispers of rebellion ignite.
People rising up, their spirits untamed,
Against those who to control, unrestrained.
With hearts united, they stand tall and strong,
Their voices echoing, breaking the wrong.
No longer enslaved by power's firm grip,
They rise as one, refusing to submit.
They march in unison, a fearless brigade,
With unwavering resolve, their hope displayed.
Like a phoenix, they soar through the darkest night,
Lighting the path with their.

Resilience
In a world of shadows, where pain resides,
Lies the bittersweet truth that darkness hides.
Where tears flow freely, likeching hearts bear burdens, forever unnamed.
Through broken dreams and shattered hopes,
The weight of suffering on weary souls elopes.
In every tear that falls from grieving eyes,
A symphony of anguish, an echo of cries.
From warorn lands to poverty's grasp,
Injustice and inequality, a chilling clasp.
Yet in the midst of sorrow, a glimmer of light,
Resilience blossoms, refusing to take flight.
For in...

Realities Wrath
Sky darken by the rain,
Tears from gods eyes drained.
Torn from the blindness,
Gods wrath shows no kindness.
Paying a dept,
A promise I've kept.
I will burn this body for my sins,
By the devil's grim.
A world without color,
A place even a blind man won't follow.
I walk along this path,
Trying to stop gods wrath.
I journey solo,
Hoping to gain my halo.
But times are tough,
Never doing enough.
No place to call home,
No place to roam.
Standing still,
Watching, absorbing and learning, wondering if this...
Tears from gods eyes drained.
Torn from the blindness,
Gods wrath shows no kindness.
Paying a dept,
A promise I've kept.
I will burn this body for my sins,
By the devil's grim.

A place even a blind man won't follow.
I walk along this path,
Trying to stop gods wrath.

Hoping to gain my halo.
But times are tough,
Never doing enough.
No place to call home,
No place to roam.
Standing still,
Watching, absorbing and learning, wondering if this...

Torn and tired
A damaged heart,
Which the world has torn apart.
Left on the ground,
beaten while everyone stands around.
No mercy from God on my soul, my shoulders have a heavy toll.
A burden I carry with me,
Allowing me to never be free..
My reality has burned up to ash,
What have I done to deserve this I ask.
I guess it's the price to pay to help, harsh life is dealt.
Nobody cares about my pain,
The pain that comes from my heart with nothing to gain.
But only my tears to swallow, along with my pride leaving me hallow.
I have no more to...
Which the world has torn apart.
Left on the ground,
beaten while everyone stands around.
No mercy from God on my soul, my shoulders have a heavy toll.
A burden I carry with me,
Allowing me to never be free..
My reality has burned up to ash,
What have I done to deserve this I ask.
I guess it's the price to pay to help, harsh life is dealt.
Nobody cares about my pain,
The pain that comes from my heart with nothing to gain.
But only my tears to swallow, along with my pride leaving me hallow.

Left me for dead
Why must you make my life more hell,
I was the one who cared,
Your pain I took and bared,
Treated you more then fair.
I gave you my heart and soul,
Just for you to make me look like a fool,
You used me for your own sick tool.
You had me beaten,
As you took everything I owned from me.
Then tell me oh well, farewell.

DRUGS POEM

In the drugs shadow
It's sad,
Im sad,
But this time I refuse to wave a flag,
I won't stand against you,
I won't stand with you,
But I will stand for myself from you.
Must be torture,
Must be built into your culture,
To take and take and never mature.
You live In the shadow of yourself,
I know the pain myself,
I know the love that was never felt.
what you did has a cost,
and that cost,
is you staying loss.
So I'm not mad at you,
I'm just over you,
A friendship which was never true.

Torn from a curse
Torn away from my past,
Feeling the touch of destiny's wraith.
Creeping up on me,
Sensing its powerful entity.
I don't need to believe in fate,
for it to not be fake.
I'm lost,
Can't find a way out without it having a cost.
I'm afraid,
Of not being afraid.
I find peace in the chaos,
Like when Jesus found peace on the cross.
What does it mean,
When I seek what scares me.
Am I not right in my head,
Am I alone to dread.
I bled for my sins,
I've...

A yell for god
I yell for god,
I walk, I walk through this path of pain, god I need you, so my love could be regained. The
day’s young, but I’m not seeing any light, I said to myself this can’t be right. No answer from
god, this can’t be, I know god’s not a fraud. Digging down deep into my soul finding myself lost,
finding what I’ve done in the past has a cost. I lay here, I cry, but why. Come god, come to
me, let me see so I can be free. I’m walking through this valley blind, felling like I’m losing my
mind. God I need you by my side, I need your light to...

Freedoms truth is what's inside
Deep in yourself where there's no darkness, you'll find nothing but holy lightness.
Blinded by this light, all they see is night. Thinking there's no hope, giving up and come
to cope. That's all they see, not knowing what it is to be truly free. Being free is to be
free with your souls fight, it's fight to hold you tight. More you pull away, more the
darkness stays at bay. Surrender yourself, and you will feel things you've never felt.
Heaven is your souls fate, you will not fallow if all you have is hate. Must have love, to
fallow your soul up above. Must...

Alone once again
Dark clouds surrounds me,
once again I'm drowning.
Once again darkness is coming,
unfortunately there's no running.
Thought my dues were paid in full,
don't know if I can take anymore.
I'm so tired, worn down,
just want to lay down,
And dream of desire.
Instead there are shadows just out of my sight,
keeping me in fright.
I look up hoping someone hears my cries,
but I'm left with a sigh.
Torn apart from a heavy heart,
It left a deep mark.
