Risk Adverse
On the morrow ships will sail
To roam beyond the hidden veil
And brave the stormy seas to see
If ships holds carry destiny
Yet here we will to seaward keep
The watch that holds our wandering feet
From paths and fields and trees and thought
Believing in the lies we've bought
Waiting here on well worn quays
To count the line of endless

Environment Scene Adverse-
Somber are the passages
Sunsets mountains plains
Over ended visions
Clouded atmosphere
Unlock heaven's gate and lightning latches
Rolling lands of browns and greens
Environmental decisions
Adverse scenery

The Adverse World Complete
I can’t stand getting worse and worse by the fast-paced minute
So, set me free from me, colliding and breaking bit by bit
Show me the way in which I should go, Lord of Light
Show me the day in which I need to move on with Your might
Betrayed by the darkness and its depthless despair
Where were you

An Adverse World 7 Plus 7
Living disobediently and having damaging depression was my past
I was an alcoholic drug addict that wanted satisfaction to last
I’ve been constantly abused mentally, physically, emotionally and in all aspects of life as a whole
Will I ever be free from despondency and loneliness? I am as strong as the fire amongst the coal
It hurts me to

The Adverse World Unfinished Will Finish
You stole away my lonely melody, Lord,
And made it harmony according to Your accord
I’d like to thank You with all of my heart as I make sound
My mind is trying to look forward to a future of faithfulness abound
I live in the now…I try to live in the now…
The past is just a sweat of

The Adverse World
I sing my songs with rageful joy in mind,
Forgetting the past struggles, aches and sorrows
That intertwine with my mind’s eye, leaving all of me behind
Forgiving others of their wrongs for better tomorrows
You know who comforts me during hard times?
Yes, you guessed it, my fluffy, beautiful and ebony-black cat named Ebbie
I need a sweet, adorable

An Adverse World Uncurled
“I am NOT like my father!!!
You say that again, I’m going to kill you!”
I shrivel up in shame
For, I am not to blame
For the shenanigans you put me through so many times
Sometimes, I wish I was no more, but the clock still chimes
Yeah, I’m more than kinda high…higher than a contact eye
That, I can’t

Adverse
Desolate desert-
Here lies the heart of Shiuli flower
Ashes on the rocks of the blazing fire
Cracked Dry lands -
Fish lives with severe shortness of breath
Shipwrecked sailor-
The tempest raging in the deep sea.
Tired, exhausted and helpless
Extreme Loneliness
No one is there-
Nobody to-
Extend its helping hands.
Nobody else,
Only the sky keeps staring -
At the solitary silence of my depressed mind-
The

A Poet Adverse Verse Testament-
All things can tempt me
from this craft of verse
One time it was a woman's face
An animals cry or worse
The seemingly needs of my full driven land
Nothing but worse, comes to move guide my hand
Then this a custom coil
When I was young I had not given a penny for a song
Season's toil emotions

Often carry crippling effects.
They sometimes reveal themselves,
As collateral damage,
And make casualties of others.

An Adverse World Unfurled
Suddenly, I constantly cough, cough, cough
I haven't had enough, for this life's so rough
My friend is right beside me and he truly understands
Where I stand and I thoughtfully fiddle with my hands
Oh, my back and knees are hurting once more…
I've been through so much lately and that's an understatement...that's a huge understatement
I

An Adverse World In Reverse
My knees wear out on me
My feet feel like lead of rue
My knees give way, you see?
My numb feelings isn't because of you
God gave me freewill with no strings attached
I hurt myself so much in the past…in the past...
I love you, Lord, but self-hatred once hatched…
I almost killed myself to end the pain at

An Adverse World
(I love you as a person,
But I hate being your son
I feel intense hatred nevertheless
Because of your doings that has put me in this distress mess...
I'm making progress,
Hardly a true success
But, a useful success, according to my unforgettably fantastic family
My fun-loving family that loves me plenty and much more absolutely
You didn't
