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
