The Clock Upon Your Wall

Not knowing your faith your religion nor your beliefs ? Your love your doctrine your truth ? But I am one, of destiny.. In spite the darkness which climbs these vines my life you may find Even I cannot lift such eyes with blood traced palms this conscience Claimed a stake to drive through humbles heart; reality slayed ignorance Whom thought it pride to be chosen and a fool would only believe so Given what's true in their tainted tales ? Yet, while my Spirit sheds tears Crawling through the gutter of anothers perception as this flesh ? Think not that tomorrow has risen and hate shall find a place to lay Their head standing atop this mountain melting scenes holy dreams you say.... Rushing through my veins a hurricane that spells these names ? Riders on the storm.

Johnny ~ You a person of love I am sure are judged by none, nor should you be. Your faith to you alone be known but the love and inspiration you give and show speaks loud and clear my friend. Love you writing.

I wish there could be a way to say all is ok..No need for the spirit to shed tears.What was was..What is is..but tomorrow it can be better.'let it be'..One of my favourite songs ever by The beatles..Hope you can hear it dearest John
