Eight-Fold Might

Breaking apart by the minute minutes 
Feeling myself, departing from misfits 
Bold and brazen I wish to be so madly 
Enviless and free I want to be badly

I'll drink to that and be a fat cat 
I'll just pretend I didn't hear that

Best day of my life is with you
Worst year of strife - 2015 - what's old and new?

2016 - will it be better or another regretful year?
Sorry for being a downer, a drowner of cheer 

Aha! Thanks for everything you've done that did more help than harm
Be my sun, my moon, my stars, my clouds, my everything, my change-is-a-challenging-chore charm

Rolling in the depths of your wrong turns
Zealous people walk on by and it burns

Because this jealousy deep inside churns
Like oceans of emotions that melt me like wax...killing me softly with their effort, taking turns 

I know I was selfish and arrogant in the past
But now I'm different than I was before 
I'm like a runner in competitive mode, running swiftly fast
Somehow...someday... You'll see me again when I am weak and sore

You're the one that I adore
What are you waiting for?

Don't be chicken with me, act like a peacock
Don't be disturbing me like a rooster in the morning 
I'm back to black and I'm as hard as a rock 
You, alone, made me feel this hurting agony, this mourning, not at all adorning 

I've became so unbold
Seven-fold...eight-fold...

You're cold gold and I'm just that piece of junk you call mold 
I'm Emerald, longing for someone to hold on to me 
Be bold and oh so fearless or you'll grow helpless and old
Don't give me the cold shoulder, just don't drop your guard so easily

Your chalice of remorseful bloodshed is of warific dread that's been put to bed
You put it up sky high and cheers to that...there's a crown, shining on your head 
I'll just forgive you, my soldier of far bolder and stronger strength than me unfortunately
I'm sorry I'm a burden from Genesis to Revelation, kicked in the dust and deserted for eternity and beyond...
I don't want to injure this link between us...this lovely, yet remarkable bond
risking my life for you
hiding who I've become 
End this beginning I ruined for you...all I should do is make it better for you and say the words that fit the occasion so true 
Feeling insecure and numb

Like a feline, I have nine lives
I'm like a man who lost all of his wives 
Due to the same illness like what happened to Poe
But I'll be that Positive Poe, although I get wrapped up in wowed woe to and fro, head to toe 

I'm invincible and incredible
I have eight-fold might
I can do the awesome impossible 
Fighting the greatest fight of all, clutching onto His light of delight...everything is black and white the moment you illuminated the pathway of love in which you ignite 

What are you made of, love?
Love? Hate? I had enough I think 
XOing you ain't helping me reach to above, my comforting glove
I'm in the brink of breaking down...but I'll wear an upside down frown...ill steer my way to safety before I 
sink...
ink...
nk...k....
Shh...hmm....
Mmmmmhmmm....
Mmmm...
Lick me clean like a plate
You and I - a brand-new slate
Just wait to gain a terrific trait
That is made from our beloved Father and creative creator, who is also waiting for us to participate in a tragedy in reverse lifestyle, my motivating mate
