For The One That Is To Be
For the one that is to be,
God has a plan for me.
He is preparing me,
For what He has prepared for me.
I will have to wait and see,
For what he has instored for me.
For the one that is to be,
He knows my desires,
And how much you mean to me.
For the one that is to be,
This is what the Lord had said to me,
And I have waited faithfully.
For the one that is to be,
I want to serve the Lord whole heartedly.
Will you come along with me?
Together we can see,
What He has instored for you...

Two Hearts
Two hearts of desire broken,
divided by the country line,
followed by unwanted days of separation.
Tears have fallen plenty;
for the need to love from afar
has brought much heartache.
Now, the days of separation have ceased,
for the desired day of two hearts has risen;
and the clock has stricken the hour
for the two hearts to cross the country line together forever.

Notes of Affection
Aware of the Almighty,
my senses lose their senses.
As I fixate upon him,
all whereabouts make themselves unknown.
Impressed upon me,
is His deep affection for my soul.
His caressing touch enchants my heart.
Slowly, my senses come about
--suspended between the atmospheres
of the afterlife, and the hour that exists.
With each beat,
His deep affection rushes through the vessels of my heart.
Slowly, my arm sways to and fro,
as the guitar plays silent notes.
My lips lay not still,
while my voice...
my senses lose their senses.

Silent Night
Although, the lids of my eyes weigh heavily upon me, my eyes remain unclosed,
as sleep escapes me.
After many restless nights of laying in silent darkness, I hear a malicious voice, within the space of my ears, softly whispering, "kill, kill, kill."
I scan the darkness surrounding me.
All is pitch black.
Shuddering frantically, I cry, "whose there?
Show yourself."
The voice of silent darkness has no reply.
Suddenly, A thin web of light reflects off the glass; finding itself staring deep into the eyes of a remorseful figure.

One's Cry
one's time has since past
one's cry of remorse now falls
upon a deaf ear
had one turned in life
that very ear would have heard
one's cry of remorse
one's cry of remorse now falls
upon a deaf ear
had one turned in life
that very ear would have heard
one's cry of remorse

Fathers
Darkness lays ahead. Intrigued, I foolishly walk in. The further I go, the more my senses disappear.
I cry out,"is anyone there?"
A deep ghastly voice replies,
"the darkest of fathers."
My eyes quickly widen in complete horror.
Foul curses are hailed toward the Name above all names.
My pounding heart beats violently.
My chest begins throbbing harshly.
My hands grab for my chest,
as I fall to the floor.
Gasping for air; I cry for help,
but I'm rendered speechless.
All sound escapes me.
My eyes plead for mercy. ...
