Last Leap

Built by need
Desires kept deep
I gave my soul
In my last leap

Just a hollow tunnel
Thoughts went to sleep
Blocking any heartache
In my last leap

Emptiness consumes me
Memories no longer I keep
Rejected beyond words
In my last leap

Slain by stupidity
By a mountain so steep
I will die in the desert
In my last leap

Cast me into eternity
I have sewn all I can reap
Happiness once more rejects me
In my last leap

Derrick Burton Date: 7/26/2008 9:59:00 PM I am in the habbit of always writing about god.When I got saved all want to do is pray to god with letters of poems or just words.After that I got a pet and that completed it,I got it as a baby so it could grow with me. Login to Reply
