Poem Title:
Poem
Have you ever listened to the silence? Alone in the giant trees Have you ever experienced your soul? Being totally at ease Have you ever stood atop a volcano? Felt its trembling power Ever smelled the sulfur boiling in the pits Man that sure is sour Have you ever loved with all that you are? Holding nothing back Have you ever completely lost who you are? Trying to find your way back Have you ever stood atop a mountain? Cursed the Lord above Have you ever sat alone in a Prison cell? Accepting his forgiving love You know I have been an evil man Every sense of the word In my memory I remember screams Tormenting to be heard So much I wish that I could forget So much I have to tell About the emptiness you feel inside The pure solitude of hell My life no longer belongs to me I am on a quest To show the world a man can be Beyond any test My pain is deep and my spirits are high Eagle gliding in the sky Brave enough to fight any man Strong enough to cry A rock to those who know me well A leader in the night A warrior that would never run God I love the fight A tender man of true compassion My wife taught me well That’s why everything that I can be I offer to her spell Angels come with big brown eyes Strong enough at heart They encourage you to rise above Finish what you start Sometimes when I start to write I fall into a trance And the poem becomes a partner Gliding in a dance Where the poem goes is with the flow I just tag along I try real hard to keep the beat Swaying with the song Some parts are good and others bad Some are in between But from the first word to the last The soul in me is seen I pray before that final curtain call I will have left my mark That people will think back and say The light rose from the dark Everyone must choose their own way I am no one to lead If you wish to make your life a garden I have some real good seed Always be totally honest with yourself The person that you are Space is a place full of dark matter Grasp to your own star Be strong enough to always open up Let go of what you hide Because in the overall scheme of things They’re a nowhere ride If you wish to hold the one you love Always let it show Remember that they must be free We all need room to grow Trust in them with all that you are Never forget to show That they are the one you will adore To the ending of the show Due to the length I joined the four line stanzas together
