Graves Acquainted

Graves of Pain-stakin’ Hatin’ I promise to never break promises… But, time will heal a guy like me Wounds of doubt and clouds of ecstasy – reducing to the sea of misery – seeps into me…holes of holding-my-ground-in-fear never meant anything to you…tears of cheers and mirrored peers Subliminally affects me… My world is torn… You look at me not in scorn But in calmness, in sincerity I can’t describe the pain I feel deep deep deep deep I weep what I reap – tortured wars and….and…. Roads of risk have opened its pathways to me… Can’t you see me? Can’t you sea? Sea of sanity swim in me… Hairy horses whirl ‘round ‘n ‘round me… Dragons of demonic pleasure… Tempted to do wrong when I want to do what’s right Get me my negativity out of sight Because positivity lives in me… Gravity won’t win this time It’s time to shine on…my above-fantastic love, my enlivened enjoyment, my musical magic, my mesmerizing eyes of seas and forests, my brainwashed mind of dread come and go Mad at many terrible influences that I have seen… Where have you been? Where have you been? Addictions hurt…addictions feed on greed Depression burns… In need of God’s healing…a vibrant reminder, a faithful seed Ocean of on-going-optimism churns… Faithless for minutes…unfolding in me childish fits Conceal what is unreal Steal what you can’t feel My heart – as hard as steel Feelin’ like a dead mule-seal… Carnivores of clashing craziness Made me dump into this…misery mess? Yes, yes, yes… I tried my best to pass God’s HARD test Difficulty to speak up…giving up… giving in to successless failure… Facts of reviving hopelessness… The harder I try, the harder I fail… Buy a pail of my pain…drink it, isn’t it stale? Unfail the reality of losing you… Ice tears, a tale untold…I’m freezing cold…as hale… Verbally abused too many times… The clocks of time still chimes Don’t yell at me this shame without a friendly name
