Best Lead Astray Poems


Circle of Gold
A sweet deep voice resonates across the empty air landing affection
Caresses the chin forming shapes off ladybugs melodies glide and swirl 
Guiding soul heart ablaze inside each melody note I hide love supreme
Released in cosmic fireworks in the air we share mystical pearl juice honey

Under the cascading gems...

Hoarding Hope - I Am Not Alone
This horrid. inner remorse
Is getting way out of course
I want to keep courage and cheer in my heart…
I am His sun-shining, mild child, even from the start
I hope my daily prayers to the Lord are sincerely heard tonight
Let not my delightfulness depart, for my good...

Why Do You Keep Running
She said "Why do you keep running, slow down a little;
Why don’t you open your eyes and see beyond the horizon;
Don’t you see it…?? Coz I see it;
I see it very well without having to squint my eyes or stretch them thus far”
I see it.

No Wonder
I wonder why I feel so bubbly inside...in laughter, I cried, without you though...I feel the need to hide
But...why are you so sad today? Was it my fault possibly? Did I do you wrong? If I did, I'm awfully sorry...
Let the negativity subside...we are going...

Waiting For a Brighter Day
There is hearsay of a brighter day
And if it does come my way
I hope it will stay
While the time whittles away
There is no game to play
Struggling with life's daily melee
All I can do is pray
I wont be lead astray
By the things that outweigh
Like the debt...

Premium Member The Sleep of Reason Breeds Monsters
The demon spawns temptation in the minds of mortal men
Exposed is their dark desires, lifted from the pits of hell
Evil breeds in the fiery depths of Satan’s beastly lair
Seeds planted to grow in shadowed corners of a heart

Abysmal minds of the frail are openly inclined...

Good Vs. Evil.
The day was still, windless
A  presence surrounded me  
Though my eyes seemed empty
I could see it standing, waiting, silent.
Not threatening, just waiting among the rocks
As I stumbled towards it.

After the fall I thought I had lost it,
the power of blind vision.
How wrong I...

Cock and Balls
If you 2
Like me
Are lead astray by your ever so lively Cock and Ball's 
You 2 may find yourself in the dock 
If you didn't shout duck
And an errant Cock
Or playful Ball
Strikes you playing partner right in the face
Brace yourself 
Those things burn and sting...

It Was Always You
It was always you
For love sings thy name
The cool wisp of blushing lips
The chorus of springtime's first kiss
Which my heart still proudly bares
Without refrain

I can still feel your smile
A warmth that spurns
Winter's deepest dire
Shivering fears erased
Imperfections embraced
By the fingertips of faith's fire

It was always you
Who...

The Black Merge.
Why again a repeating pain?
Pains in my veins , another 
Inside groan, my heart is sour,
It lacks flavor, do i need liquor?
Away with that! awy!! far away!!!
Now and then i think,
Is my head a tank?
Blurred love i see, betrayal growing 
Like a tree, announcing like...

Betrayed
The thought of all trusts,

Was it all just rust?

The thought of all confidence,

Was it because of your insolence?

The thought of all friendship,

Was it all just dissonance?

Was it all just lies?

 

The thought of all immanence,

There was no innocence,

Was it all just imminent trust?

Was it all...

Thousand Shards of Glass
A grey area through which we trudge
A thousand arcing shards
Sol, dust on the rift of illumination
A thousand cut-throat shards
Forever lead astray by the light
The boundaries of truth
Oh so tyrannical
Uncontested
.
..
...
Tick, tick
The bell to resound
The fangs to arch in
For a rogue shard could ne'er defy...

A Good Day
A Good Day.

The way Lord has made it.
To think anything else shades it

Best thing to do is behave in it.
Seek no glory for you shall have it.

In each day is to live that way
Mindful of things that lead astray.

See them in this grateful way 
Lasting...
