The World Has Been Cruel to You, Yet There Is Still Beauty and Meaning That Comes from You as Well
The wind has bruised your tender face, And winter wrote upon your brow— Yet in your eyes, I still can trace A fire the world could not put out. The stars have watched you weep alone, Their silver light a cold caress, But from your soul a song has grown That sorrow could not quite suppress. You move through thorns with quiet grace, The...

rise above
I will rise above. Fly like a dove. Peaceful and free. Nesting in a tree. Or in the breeze. Ready to seize. So full of love. Just like me. Make the world freeze. As we rise above. ...

The Great Place Above
I’ll shed myself a final tear I’ll say all the things I’d like you to hear I’ll get over all my fears The ones you’ll never help me overcome I’ll cry until my heart is done I’ll sing until all the words are sung You’re gone now, but you will be missed I’ll dream about you, good dreams are wished I’ll never learn...

Premium Member Was my home built above the endless abyss
Was my home built above the endless abyss, Why do I feel beneath my steps the corpses of ancestors whispering in silence, Like invisible strings tightening around my neck, reminding me, Mocking the memory that I am merely an echo of them, a speck of dust. The place I cherished as a sanctuary was just a cemetery of regrets, Why...

Premium Member Between the lines above the shores
Between the lines above the shores silence grows flooding the bayou taking moss from tall hollow branches as driftwood falls to the ground splash empty Orr the balance beneath hidden gems catered to beyond what is seen and what is not seen while the tropical breeze frolic about nature's coastline beside the bay while inland...

Rise Above The Clouds
Dark demons tore her from within Pulling her downward into spiraling depression Shadows of memories long ago That crumbled her to cracked pieces Everyone was talking about her Or so it seemed She avoided greetings and conversations With anyone outside This deep abyss shoved her further down With whom could she be 'she'? Would nobody understand her? Irritated outside, showing emotional outbursts, There...

Premium Member To The Moon Above
To the moon above On mission of grand conquest Men in lunar launch Defining moment In “One giant leap for mankind” Prints in lunar dust Stars and Stripes planted The flag flies but does not wave In moon’s atmosphere In that adventure Proud men and women served I was among them Soon many giant steps Were made on terra firma To visit again Time has written much Since...

Heavens above
My God, it’s filled of stars. That twinkle and shine with each luminescent bulb affixed to their body With their blue and white moon-glazed skin that contracts the inky nothingness that follows It’s filled with little people, Or whatever they are, specks, molecules, aliens, feelings. Floating on their own journey though this world. Aggravated at earth for her inhabitants attacking...

Above and the beauty we make ugly
Above is the place I wish to race Above is the face I wish to grace Where  people dreams age And where thunderstorms  rage The wildest  dreams take courage And where you  feel the stars stage Above is the Term That we use when success has arms The word that manifest richness alarm Reminder of bellow and its germ Reminder of the bare...

As Above, So Below
Heaven below, Heaven is Hell. Where God's whispers dwell. Shadows dance in the depths of the night. Through the veils, truths lies in white. You don't sleep until judgement day, that is the eternal death. It's all a twist, a lie, a facade. God is Satan, Satan is God. In the realm where light and darkness collide. Truths and illusions intertwine, side by...
