innocent bystander
wears the stain of guilt
a blind eye
turning away
shames blamelessness

Death shall bring loves
Life shall also too
I felt compelled to sniff the likes
Around the air, so cool
Eagerly I looked for the tenderness of you
Deep into that darkness kissing
What could there be more purely missing?
To warn me about the liking true
only this and a true friendship spiking
while I pondered, pushier and striking
LOVE
I have dreamed of the fancies
the laud blamelessness appreciating
Waiting, with my waiting
all my soul within me accumulating
Back into my memories desiring
all my soul within me stating
deep into that darkness worshiping
and its eyes have all the entreating
LOVE
Back into my memories straggling
And the loved one never bracing
The storms came misplacing
I felt compelled to sniff the feelings
Deep into that darkness daring
And the rubbing was declaring
The warier welcome whispering
Through which came chatting, chatting, chatting
I remember I was obtaining…
LOVE

God's glory comes down from on high
His creation shows he's done
as each day appears as if alone
but behind it is God the mighty one
The voice of divinity travels far
all over the globe speaking aloud
truth being it's promised end
one of its tenants is never proud
The Lord's law revives the soul
truly perfection it's always wise
so desirable even more than gold
fear God truly so you will rise
This law discerns all our errors
presumptuous sins are so real
pray for victory over them all
so blamelessness our covering seal
May our hearts meditations be holy
so that the tongue of ours will speak
well of you Lord our rock of redemption
keep us right so you alone we'll seek

Wide eyed wonders, passing crayons on the down low
Blamelessness because they think nanny is too preoccupied to press charges on cookie theft
And You'd Torture kids, with punches to their noses till you got the bloody knuckle
Yet You've got A deceptive young mind
You're meek-fullness guards these illegal violations
Now you get temper tantrums when you don't get the dwink from your sippy-cup
You start acting babyish because you couldn't nap nap with pwitty pwincess
You said bad words and did bad things
mommy wasn't watching
But you got caught by nanny and she says,
"timeout for life and
spanky till death!"
Mommy finished the fairy tale ,this is the end.

Morality’s general
with an intimidating aura
and a commanding presence;
this charisma’s description
is a single lane void of corners
written in a dictionary
consisting of a single page.
Blamelessness so standardized
to be empirical
and ruthless to liberalism.
Pragmatism functions but under
the administration of apt discipline
with no chance for taste
and appetite to have their says.
Lips when open
are gates for words of absolution.
Yeah and nay
never exchanging importance
and with an illumination
so exact and precise
that even distant acquaintances
can join in attestation
of its attributes
to become a part of a bunch
of its unsolicited witnesses.
Shoulders of personality
grow high above the heads temple
and character, steeply mountainous
and impossible for compromise to climb.
Such dart hits same spot
over and over again on the board;
such skin keeps to its attitude,
never longing to be tanned or bleached
what a wealthy tiny island
so respected by its surrounding waters!

This love of hatred penetrates my numbness and breathes life
My pain consumes my source—always full with strife.
Overwhelmed I run blindly toward a distant ending
Begging silently for a willing warrior my soul defending.
Oh, to overcome this darkness with me as the only light
Suffering and ashamed I urge on with this fight.
Fear wrenches my head and speaks loudly to my deaf ear
Its sound pierces and eagerly takes what I hold dear.
Scars unseen and so deep no one sees
I smile through the pain with no comfort to ease
My blamelessness ripped away by hands that I love
Shattered pieces!--I struggle, my head barely above.
My battle unquiet ting fake peace that I’ve found
Learning to rise above but come crashing back down.
Guiltily I look now and see you committed this crime
But for my whole life—YOUR sin, but I do the time.

Innocence opens her heart so plain and kind.
Fowl feathered black eagerly excepts touch.
Either blind of fear, which comes with age.
Expressing emotions, they bond gently.
