Within the Looking Glass: Conclusion

Now this cross is carried...And a crucifixion--AWAITS--and the blood 
which has fallen--to late--for an answer, to late to be saved!!! A thousand
eyes--wondering/staring deep inside, looking for forgiveness inside of dead eyes
gone astray...A hint of darkness, begging eyes that fade...deep within the
voices--CRYING/CALLING my name...it's better off inside here--so peaceful and safe...
No feelings, no sadness, no sorrow, no pain...I'm now free from the madness--
drifting-- freely/happily away...Away...Away...This will not last forever...
SADLY--I begin to feel--I breathe in the poison, of a new life I start--AGAIN--
in a new life I begin again...And there is no END...TORMENT... TO grow again---
to feel again-- to hurt again--to lose my mind, over and over and over again...
There is no never, there is never an END...PERPETUAL, CONTINUOUS SICK LIFE!!!
There is no absolute meaning...Just a struggle to get by...Forever, and ever and ever
TORMENT!!!

Within the looking glass--why can't I get in??? Be the one on the inside, instead 
of the one lost within??? I can't stand to look at you, to see the distorted reflection...
Is it me, or is it an ILLUSION??? I don't even recognize you...It can't be me!!!
Maybe one day--once again I can step inside, and not come back...Maybe I could just
fade away--DISAPPEAR--never exist...And maybe in all actuality--I DON"T!!!
Maybe, I'm just a figment in someone elses mind...Maybe, I haunt them with a MADNESS...
Or maybe, I am INSANE!!! Or just a little confused...There is a QUESTION to my SANITY,
but an unheard answer... 

Be one looking out--instead of the one looking in!!!

Twas, it is a riddle,
my past so deeply despair...
If I could change my past,
I would not be here...
If I knew I was gonna be marked,
as soon as I took my first breath...
My first choice in life,
would had been DEATH...

But, yet haste, I made it thus far,
Burden of despair a painful scar...

I carry 10,000,000,
that's ten million crosses for those in pain...
And not a second chance in life,
do I have to gain...

Yes, I chosen to be nailed to this cross...
For I will die for the wounded and lost...

If I could in by any means,
die to rid the world of all its sorrow...
I'll die right here today,
and rise tomorrow...

Still you ponder as you question me...
For things that has happened were meant to be...

For all the wrong,
a right was learned...
For all the good things put out,
a blessing was earned...

I've lived a life in a storm...
Being tossed and thrown and even torn...

Yet, I still stand...
By all the hurt I've taken,
I'm still stronger than man...

But here I sit doing time...
Sitting in innocence,
for there's no guilt in my crime...

People that hate me,
carry their nails.
Blasphemy me and curse me,
with their hateful yells...

For they carry jealousy and evil hearts...
Their fast hateful words are thrown like darts...
And they don't miss a single throw...
They hit my heart and pierce my soul...

Yet I still try to stay strong....
For I forgive them,
for all their wrongs...

This riddle maybe hard to understand...
But life is useless,
so there's no harm to make it end...

I may be young,
and have more knowledge to gain...
But it's not worth walking and carrying,
all the burdens of pain...

I lived a life,
both good and bad...
I had times of joy and plenty,
were sad...

But now, all is lost,
and I've had enough...
Life is hard,
and love is tough...

But I gave all I could,
the best I can.
My life was cheated,
with these cards in my hand...

Yes< I can make it better,
there is no doubt in my mind...
I could forget the past,
and leave it all behind...

But I choose not,
because it's always there.
And no matter how hard I try,
I'm still all troubled and in despair...

I don't think I'd change, anything in my past at all...
For I gained wisdom and knowledge, and that's about all....

Don'T Judge

Don't judge me,
When you don't know...
Because there a reasons,
For all the things I've done...

Don't make assumptions,
about my past...
When you haven't heard, 
The stories of my life...

For things that happened,
I do take responsibility for...
But the things I've done,
Never hurt no-one, but me...

I made bad choices,
There is no doubt...
But with a love I felt so true,
there seemed to be no way out...

When blinded by love, and hope,
Things could go two ways...
Whether good or bad, 
There's choices to be made...

My life  has been complicated,
But I'm not what some assume of me to be...
I'm a very generous, loving being,
And I'm Super Awesomely Sweet...

Everybody has a past,
Whether good or bad...
But if you don't hear their story,
You can't judge who they are...

We're not perfect,
Nobody in this world is...
Look upon your own flaws,
Before casting judgement on others....

If You Could Talk To God: Oh, Dear God,

If I could talk to God,
I would ask him if he would take away.
All this pain and suffering,
That infects this world every day.

As my heart it aches with this sickness,
of all the sickness in this world which I face.
I'd ask dear God, My one true God,
Could you please rid the evil, that has taken place.

On my knees I beg dear God,
this madness that surrounds me is wrong.
I fight to make it,
In a world where I don't seem to belong.

Oh dear God, help this world,
What is going on?
Why can't the human race open their eyes,
and try to get along.

My God, I know you placed me here,
To better the world and make them see.
But I feared that I was incapable,
To do the work you asked of me.

Dear God, I know you're always right,
It's to late to change a world that's in Satan's hands.
For all those who had pledge allegiance.
To a flag in a country that never understands.

Dear God, please help me,
Bear the weight of this cross.
For I dear God will give my life, 
to save the wounded and lost.

Dear God I will await thee,
For when that time arise.
I will carry out your will,
until the enemies demise.

Death, I Do Not Fear

Pardon me quaintly,
my dear friend...
For how would you feel,
if I brought the end?

My eyes are empty,
my soul is black...
Nothings to living,
there's no coming back...

Everyday, s a waste,
I waste my breath...
I, await the call,
from my friend, DEATH...

His presence, I've found,
I know he's near...
I'm ready to step out,
out of life's fear...

Oh, the joyous thought,
*DEATH* to die....
To experience it now,
beats, being alive.

I imagine it to be,
an incredible masquerade...
For I fear life,
*DEATH* I'm not afraid...

It's a seclusion of peace,
it's simple to be free...
Out of this body,
away from me...

To drift away amongst,
the beginning of time...
On a complete disconnection,
on a short term line...

Death, Death my friend,
I'm calling thee...
I'm awaiting your call,
to let me be free...

I want to sink,
to fade away...
Away, from this world,
I see every day...

Slowly, slowly I like,
*TO DIE* my friend...
So I can feel every pain,
of my tormented end...

Why, why am I,
am I still here?
For I tell you *DEATH*
"I do not fear"...
