Premium Member Subdued Light
How often have I asked
why did you enter my life?
I was happy, even if in isolation.
You felt that I should share.
Do not birds share their seeds?
Do not fish swim in shoals?
We were not meant to live
on an island all alone.
So you stole my heart,
I gave...

My Pride Subdued
I simply stumbled when I saw I fumbled;
With my strength I struggled to come over the trouble
But I end up building up more tackles.
I've said, '...well...with my knowledge.., though little.'
Diverting the people's attention from God's temple.
Some too, joggled after me like dull bulls.
I talked as...

Subdued
Your very presence takes my breath away
Your light banter makes my smile sway,
Intricately woven, our paths cross oft
Unbeknown, are we soul mates adrift?
Slowly time will tell its tale
Spinning away removing all veils . . ....

Subdued, In Writing
Enveloped in waves of
overflowing thought
to drown within its current
light goes dim, cannot see
what is in front
what is behind I?
For in a trap, 
cannot focus 
cannot breath.
Gasping crying to 
what cannot hear.
It has ensnared, in its icy 
teeth. 
Thought oppressed 
ink splattered statements along 
piles of...

Bowed in subdued 
                            thought as I wait

Premium Member The Muse Will Not Be Subdued
MUSE has been with me since I was a child,
life has tried to squash, smash, shatter, stifle my spirit;
cut to pieces my words.

The ruin of my existence, the torment, pain-  I take,
I give it all to MUSE to make words beautiful;
to deaden my deep...

Subdued
Man ever since I rejected Christ and join forces with the devil I started to see things that was beyond human eyes to see in I started to hear different voices in my head asking questions like who are you? What’s going on? Is anybody...

Sane Mind, Subdued Spirit
Everybody breaks
He found comfort in that, but
I had other plans.
Am I insane? Dear friend
"Yes I'm crazy but you ain't"...

Seahawks Subdued Again
?Seahawks Subdued Again

How horrible can something possible be?
Which seems like forever will bother me
With referees getting to a big squabble
Then from the field having to hobble.

When things are not going your way
What is there really ever left to say
Except Seahawks blew it in first half
Probably...

Subdued
subdued 
internal 
motivation 
is trying 
to creep 
around 
the corner 
trying to 
sabotage 
the forward
momentum
that has 
been made 
thus far 
on this new 
journey...

Premium Member Subdued scents
Our heart sought a rhythm known to soul alone
but its blush was hushed under ego’s weight,
so what echoed was a dull baritone,
of dark desires that refused to abate.

Love’s rainbow adorned a part of the sky,
sublime work of art yet judged incomplete,
since voids in space continued...

Broken
I've always had my pen and paper rescue me from my thoughts 
Now..now i feel i have to rescue them from your toxicity 
'Cause lately you've been all that runs through  my mind
You seem to interfere with my every thought
And i just comprehend to...

The Eternal Damnation
Oh dear lord! 
Let her cry a million tears of molten gold
Until the earth consumes , in her bosoms, her faltered soul. 

Flames getting high as they could 
But clustered within great despair
Was the heart that couldn't move 

She felt the earth crush beneath her...
