Please let me be
Flashes of light
Not of my delight
Voices in the air
Invisible mostly as it shall stare
The bed shakes
Noises this spirit makes
My question is why?
Is there danger? and is it a possibility?
Temperature rises then quickly falls
As the sunlight fades and stalls
Wind in a room
Chills and heat, hair raising mental doom
Is it something I have done?
Or something that is left undone?
Spare me no words, spare me no signs
What is real and false are becoming thick lines
Is it a angel?, is it a ghost?
Perhaps it is...
Not of my delight

Wind in a room
Chills and heat, hair raising mental doom
Is it something I have done?
Or something that is left undone?
Spare me no words, spare me no signs
What is real and false are becoming thick lines
Is it a angel?, is it a ghost?

Pressing on
To stay alive
No retreat must survive
We all have to overcome
The challenges we are running from
Everything is possible in our own way
Climb the mountain of disarray
Life knocks us all down, but we must get up
Before the volcano of evil with in decides to erupt
Maybe tiring but stay the course
A path of no remorse
It is the test of time
To stay good or join the gangs of crime
Hope is the driving force of will
To lack of suck is a easy soul to crush and kill
We are like a star, that is not supposed to fall
A building...

Tears or rain?
It's going to rain, it's going to pour
Stop just briefly then rain some more
The clouds will darken quickly again
Sometime so not sure when
It's going to fall from the sky
Like tears from someone who has to cry
The temperature may drop
But the pain of a person suffering will not stop
Thunder roars and rumbles across the land
Lightening follows with force and on demand
May the wind blow everything away
That bothers us and rather stay
The ground is moist and wet
As common as fears and regret
Puddles in time form
From the...

A towns problem
Their is a wanted list
Looking for a killer who had blood on his hands and both fist
Chose not to use his gun
With raw power alone the brawl was won
The bounty was quickly made
A amount of ten thousand dead or alive to be paid
Picture of the possible killer is drawn
For the viewing of from dusk til dawn
Texas where everything is bigger
In the days of the old west, to battle a unknown figure
The cowboys do not have a chance
No matter what gun they have or their shooting stance
He is easy to find but impossible to kill
It is his...

The mist of lust
Just waiting for someone to say hello
Not knowing the path of where this can go
This cannot be just anyone
Has to be a female basking in the sun
Eyes of an angel and the skin of a beautiful queen
The recent interesting person to be seen
What can be the answer of this hello?
Of a person I still do not know
Options that stretch an ocean, which one to find?
Of an answer she would not mind
Try not to be too forward of suggestive
Avoid the appearance of being obsessive
Perhaps a future lunch or dinner?
On the small line of saint or...

The truth and it's meaning
Wake upon this morning day
Wish the pain would stay away
The sun provides the sky light
As lamps are dimly bright
No fatigue in the soul
No symptoms to dull or control
Stiffness should be long gone
As the morning dew covers the lawn
It would be a dream come true
For the nerves not to be dying and stuck like glue
The eyes would not have circles like the dead
Dizziness would not occur, no seeing colors like yellow or red
Still alive and waiting
With knowledge still worth debating
One story at a time

To date
Questions that reside
Coming from the inside
What do we want in this person?
Not us in a different version
What can we ever say?
Before we just walk away
Something that captures the mind
The one that we are all out to find
Listening to the radio
A morning debate and talk show
Who is this person we date?
It's not our right to judge or rate
In a way we are all the same
Playing in the same game
One more shot for romance
That last and final dance
Pictures flashing in our eyes
Something special often in...

No time to breathe
Stress is a mess
Makes us confess
The tension in the mind
So easy to find
Muscles are so tight
Something is never right
Eyes refuse to shut
The soul has another inner cut
The brain races more
For many answers but what for?
Need to reach out
To find what all of this is really about
How to deal with life
That hurts so much like a knife
No blood is coming out
No need to scream and no need to shout
What is the name?
Of this never ending game
Overwhelmed to the max
Emotionally melting like wax

For her
Two weeks to say goodbye
Soon to breakdown and cry
for college and to explore
Of what life has to offer, which is more
It's good for you to go
To learn and grow
A decision that should not be turned down
Even if some as you leave have a tear and a frown
Opportunity is the word of the day
Which options not often stay
You may move to a dorm
Usually is the student norm
To become successful and satisfied
May your heart be the compass and guide
I wish you all the best there
Because I still love you and care
I hope...

They say
Drama will forever stay
It will be here all night and day
At work or at school
Someone is the hero or the fool
Words fly and swarm like bee's
Stinging hard and the pain sends you to your knee's
Wrong or right someone loses the fight
As silence slowly becomes the night
True or usually false
Effecting the dead and the one's who still have a pulse
Spreading like wild fire
Eating at you eternally like a inner desire
Let the "he said" , "she said" begin

The desire of a child
A sickly child is laying down
Trying to stay happy avoiding a frown
The fever is up then down so far
She can only watch TV or a passing car
Just wanting to play
Why does she feel sick all day?
Play catch and to run outside
Maybe run around or go for a bicycle ride
So young yet often sick
Never recovering very quick
Medications often on hand
For year round demand
Rest is the common routine
Even if it sounds mean
Soon she will be better again
Not knowing when
Water by her side
A blanket also shall reside...

A message from a cave
Hiding from the sun
And everyone
Every alley is dark and grey
Just going a different way
So much to give
Yet no reason to live
Life is so precious, its a gift
The weight to continue on is to hard to lift
Please take it away
No words left to say
People tearing each other apart
Another destroyed soul and heart
Their minds
Filled with pictures and signs
No emotion and care
Living selfishly unaware
Clouds and then rain
Soothe the pain
Like candles in the night
Silence during moon light
Slow...
