Slient Waterfalls
Let me fulfill my duty,
as Nature demands.
If only you could hear me,
would you care to listen.
All who travels me, are never seen again.
No one knows why such beauty
brings such great sorrow.
But it is not my fault for I did nothing wrong.
Throughout my existence,
this is all I ever knew.
I do not like being watched,
or visited by humans.
To stand proud and cry forever.
Nor pain nor pleasure, is ever
remembered among my kind.
But naturally, we do not feel.
"Inside us all, we have a "waterfall"...
as Nature demands.
If only you could hear me,
would you care to listen.
All who travels me, are never seen again.
No one knows why such beauty
brings such great sorrow.
But it is not my fault for I did nothing wrong.
Throughout my existence,
this is all I ever knew.
I do not like being watched,
or visited by humans.
To stand proud and cry forever.
Nor pain nor pleasure, is ever
remembered among my kind.
But naturally, we do not feel.
"Inside us all, we have a "waterfall"...

Cleansing
Please do not fear,
that which is to come;
darkness reveals the light
as light reveals the darkness.
Please do not run,
from the pain you may endure;
but welcome it freely,
love is the cure.
Tears of pain,
can flood your mind
though they are not
in vain.
Every tear,
represents a petal;
a petal which represents
your sorrows.
There is only one way,
to cure pain;
to end all suffering,
you must cry it away.
I, Johnny,
stand before you,
with a shoulder
to cry upon.
Your...

A Mother's Goodbye
Day in and day out, she left without saying goodbye
my mother never really liked goodbyes
she always feared she'd never say hello again
I was the only person she had left
so I never forced her to say goodbye
Seasons changed and years passed
I was getting ready to leave for college
I could tell my mother wanted to say it
I hugged her and whispered "Don't say it"
she held her peace, as I held her
My future was upon me
time was on my side
I turned and yelled for my mother
I wanted her to ride with me to the airport
I...

Alone (Tale of The Hunted Mercenaries Part One)
Trapped deep within
the forest of death,
it seems I'm alone; everyone vanished
within seconds of deployment
Just moments ago
we gathered upon a tree;
a tree where enemies
fired shots in a rapid burst of three
I'm surrounded with no where to go
nor do I have any ideas
how to survive
this deadly situation
I turn around staring down
the barrel of a high powered rifle;
my heart told me that the games over;
I've lost so what’s left?
I made a run for it and came across a few bodies
shots fired...

My Betrayal (My Conviction Part Three)
My greatest flaw
Is but a perfect heart
With a sharpened claw
To rip it apart
It’s a curse
To know my direction
Is to outsmart fate
Why cause such deception
Is it so wrong to wait?
It’s a curse
The gift I hold,
Is one of a kind
It cannot be sold
Visible to the blind
It’s a curse
To judge me
For where I'm not going
To judge me
For what I'm not doing
It’s a curse
To let this go
Is everything okay?
I'll have to say NO!
Tell me you'll stay...
It’s a curse...
Is but a perfect heart
With a sharpened claw
To rip it apart
It’s a curse
To know my direction

Is one of a kind
It cannot be sold
Visible to the blind
It’s a curse
To judge me
For where I'm not going

It’s a curse
To let this go

Redemption (My Conviction Part Two)
To realize that my prison is me
is just a thought that
makes my eyes a crimson sea
clawing my insides like a cat
To be guilty makes me cry
yet I know I cannot lie
but I'm innocent and don’t know why
I think its best I fall and die
Even thought I am not sad
I want to die
and it makes me mad
my wish is to see you cry
To end this pain now
so yours can start
I'll find a way somehow
to break your heart
You created me this way
so I know what I have to do
I will have to pay
and so will...

Interrogation (My Conviction Part One)
To know you are alone
and everyone wants you dead
no one should feel this pain
it’s not easy to just lay in bed
I find myself deep within
the existence of my shadow
to find out I don't fit in
I could escape through an open window
Only to be hunted by the new
rather than the old
remains of the person I once knew
so let my thoughts unfold
I know things no one else should know
but I can't speak of them so
I wash them away as my thoughts try to flow
lying still as I watch them go
So...

Visions
My future brings me great despair
for I have already lost what I hold dear;
in this world, there’s nothing left for me
that is why I chose to drift so freely
I’ve casted away all that remains
I’ve given all that I could…
I’ve given up on myself
despite all those who supported me
Baring such a curse with no cure,
I stood alone, so dark, so cold.
All the love that once existed…
drained away by a mere voice
Such a voice is poison to my ears
yet I love it so, it has become
the blood that I bleed,
the blood that I shed…...

The Proposal
The feelings flow deeply.
Gentle and sweet;
I think of you each morning
And cannot express my delight.
I think of your arms being around me;
And dream of you each night
I love the way you touch me.
Know that you are mine.
No fear in my heart, no doubt in my mind.
Always sending chills down my spine.
Dreams and thoughts; cloud my mind as I wait for thy lips upon my face;
I wish to stay wrapped in you forever.
But I do not wish to release.
I love that you are with me.
You're feelings are clear but the choice has yet to be...
