Premium Member As Days Go By
Inspired by Opeth – The Drapery Falls and this entire year…

I sip on Super Mario Brothers hot cocoa cup
Filled with convictions’ drop
From streams of consciousness

Ready to skinny dip into a new plateau 

No
Holds
Barred

Ferocity’s grip
Looking upon God’s yesterdays
As He hands me a pen
Asking me what I...

Watching the World Go By - Owl Contest
It’s cosy here in the corner of the barn
On hand many mice to eat
Come dawn I open both eyes
Stretch my wing feathers 
Flutter a bit
Then gracefully fly through the gap 
Left in side of door by caring farmer

That’s my perch
Up there in that tree
I watch...

As the Years Go By
You've taught me how to share;
You've taught me how to love.
You've taught me how to trust in the Lord above.
You've given me a faith;
Beyond all measure.
You sacrificed your needs; 
for toys to bring me pleasure.

You've given from your hearts,
You've given from your souls,
and for that...

 For those who go by his tentmaker’s rope

		though neither low nor too high
						nothing will pass you by
if you swing not to the end of your tether

Let the tavern-keeper yell
						 no legs past his dream threshold
					will wander before old...

Stars Go By
Stars go by in the second of the night

Feelings re trapped by the words we dont write

Weather changes when push comes to shove

Moments are shared but with no heartbeat love

Winds blow and wrestle with the matter

Incomprehensible desire but we always seem to scatter

Tides shift with...

The Days Go By, and Still I Think of You
I'm suffocating in my skin
My happiness is wearing thin
Please just let this end
Please just comprehend
That you're hurting me now more then ever before
Oh how can I implore
How much I love you so
How much you'll never know
When you used to hold me in your arms
When you...

Premium Member I Want To Go By Train
Kicked out of a theater for the twenty-sixth time,
the owner suggested to the highest building in town they should climb.
From there, throw yourselves down to the street.
Their act was considered both putrid and effete.

It was discovered three beautiful women also came.
Hilda, Wilda, and Tilda they...

To Let Go By Anna Lo P
Why can't it be US?
Why does it have to be US?
We only wanted one's happiness
We just wanted love & belongingness.

Time & place, put us in regress
Worlds apart is our test,
Of life and love, so willing to offer
Because we are different, it is US who suffer.

I...

Go By Faith
Go by Faith

The future in which the Bible holds

Is relevant to those young and old

Proclaims a tale of blades clashing

Cutting, bleeding, thriving, thrashing

Stories of warriors brave and bold

Fighting those with hearts so cold

A team to rescue those in contempt

Their battle may be eminent

Although their leader,...

Torch Lake - Years Go By
The cedar dock splinters out to the moon's shine
Like the second hand ticking along
A white-faced clock
Drawing in loose boats and green moths
To its sweep of time

Is there any difference
Between those little dots of cabin lights
Strung like pearls along the shore
Three miles across Torch Lake
And the...

Dogs Go By
DOGS GO BY

Dogs go by
Barking their backs
That is water picture in feelings.

People go by,
Jolting their images
That is water picture in knowing ourselves.

Now my thoughts go by
One generation to another
That is the wisdom, knowledge, from one another.

Sucking long, sucking deep
I node once and again, on and...

The Days Go By So Fast
the days go by so fast
that tomorrow's almost passsed 
Too many decisions, to provide your provisions 
So 
Take a drink cuz quick as a wink, life can be a blink 
So

Before you know it it'll be...

As the Years Go By
experiences add wear and tear on the human spirit
Responsibility demands one respond to their ability
The game of life becomes risk and reward 
Time become more valuable, and no one can afford to waste it

As the years go by 
The journey back to self begins after...
