Music Soul

I use to hear you sing to me at night
chasing away the nightmares
Your lyrics reflected the struggle
in my mind
you sing as if you understood
my hidden fears
It told the story of a soul
that has no color
Repressed spirit that has lost its way
unrecognizable desires I don't know
exist
I cry out to you needing
to hear your song
Your music chased away
the bad dreams
that left my heart beating
to the rhythm of
my screams
I don't hear the music
anymore you no
longer sing to me
My nightmares return
I need your song
Sing to me again
Music Soul

Peace

I can't seem to find peace 

no matter where I turn
Its elusive, avoiding me

It runs and hides like the sun 

being chased by black clouds

Every time I get close enough to find it

It slips away so quietly

Leaving me searching for it

in the darkest corners of my mind

Peace, where are you, why won't you

hold me in your arms

sing to me in your sweet comforting voice

I need to feel you close to me

my sanity is slipping away ever so quickly

If you are out there, please let me know

Give my a reason not to slit my throat

The grave is calling me it says peace is here

I fear my peace may lie there

Touch the Sky

Tears

To many hearts broken

Every day a son lost

As my hope weakens

Retribution? at what cost

Sins of a father

Tear a family apart

Each wishing for a new tomorrow

Against the odds

Rising from ashes the Phoenix

Salvation is here no more

                Tears

My thoughts

my pain

My feeling

my joy

My revelation

my retribution

My sorrow

my tears

My expression

my fears

My love

my heart

My soul

my spirit

My love

my disappointment

My salvation

my grave

Life's a Bitch

Life’s a bit**

gets its kicks off

your problems

delivering a ransom to

priceless for payment

Destroying any self respect

you fought so hard to get

in the end all you

have is the life

you’re left with

Feelings

I have no more tears to cry

no more fears to stir me

There is no love in me

my love a dry well

Blown away ashes of my hope

floating through the air after

a firestorm

Dreams unreachable, unattainable

entice me only when I sleep

Sorrow entwines its hurtful grip

around my heart

Squeezing, inflicting excruciating pain

I fall to my knees

praying to a power stronger than myself

asking for deliverance from some

unseen thing

Pulling at me drawing me closer

watching from with inside me
