LEGEND

we are all legends no matter who we are 
cruising, and confusing ENIGMA to bizarre 
I am a legend, no  need to be a star
I am a legend ,with no need to travel far

In and out like the sun 
I am a legend, I'...

Release
Who will make a stand?
Countless like the seashore sand…
Who shall make a stand?
The end of mankind is at hand

Will someone save me?
Knee deep in regret, I see…
Save me from gravity's hold or I’ll be upset
Nighttime's rainfall shines upon my mindset

Make me feel a little bit...

Who I Am
Only the dash seems to illuminate the night.
You feel the winds chill.
As you run through your head all that was right.

You smell the honeysuckle and remember her hair.
The night understands pain.
As I cannot return home and face your no longer
there.

That radio stations light shines from...

Premium Member Spring Peepers
Spring peepers

I could hear spring peepers singing in the dark
From the water near the dam
Night fell upon peach colored skies
All around the mountain
Reminders of how far I have climbed
Through the mountains of life lay before me
Just how far there is to carry on
Around the corner,...

Remember When
Remember when 
 summer days were long
 roller skating was cool
 collecting the sticker from your 5 cent gum
 while learning how to walk the dog with your coke a cola yo yo
 remember when happy days was on & you sat & watched with...

A deeper bond exists when fears are lifted.
Inhale the chilly air from above; you're gifted.
Trust faith to guide you and free your soul.
God's love fills your senses; you can't control.

The words flow like water over a dam.
Once a class is taught, you won't fail an...

What Can I Say?
What can I say to heal this break
in skin tender hearts that ache
I love you gently? or forgive a fool?
what can I say to drown this pool
of raging water without a dam
words are waisted in your hand
what can I say to turn again
back to where...

Happ Butterfly
She let people stab her in the back 
Like stepping on a bug, they never know it’s coming 
Like hunting a deer they don’t know it’s coming 
She let them, she wanted it 

She was called a one trick pony 
She wanted the pain 
She...

Love
Something special, something unique,
Something complicated and an unsolved mystery.
A seven year old’s definition of love,
Fairy Tales, castles,
Happy endings and blue skies.

A seventeen year old’s definition of love,
First kiss, movie dates and cuddles,
It’s like a red delicate rose,
Beautiful and soft but,
Can prick you

Beware!
Heartbroken into millions of...

Could It Be
Could it be
That you still love me
And if so
What good to know?

So many years
Have passed my dear
Couldst the flame
Remain aglow?

Perhaps we all
Best let it rest
Leave it in the past
And not worry so

It’s water o’er the dam…
The candle extinguished…
The ship that sailed
So long ago

Yet if perchance...

Water Under the Bridge
Like water under the bridge
Or like water over the dam
Let's put our discord in the fridge
Broken an arm I'm not who I think I am

While opening the Midas door
Expecting to get a Midas touch
I toured where angels won't explore
And got crushed by an unknown clutch

If...

My Sweat Followed By My Tears
Look at there
It is a shaft  which  built sorrounded  of it
it built  by perspiration from my head 
it was a dam which sparkle like diamond 

It was a dam of  sweet  water 
it was a dam which  used...

Premium Member Made in Man's Image
Man was made in the image of God
to worship Him, and His will applaud.
But sin has created a rift
causing man’s affection to shift.

Sin has made mankind a rebel
and caused pride in his heart to swell.
Some men say God does not exist
while to heaven they raise...

Passed Over
I wish you could see me for who I am, 
and not cut me off like water at a dam.
There is more to me than what meets the eye,
but no one sees that and will give me a try.

When we went out on a date,...
