New Sonnet 4 'Unlike a Spurgeon, I by dull words unfold'
Unlike a Spurgeon, I by dull words unfold
The limits of my Sarah's love for me,
But I realize that the rot and stink and mold
Are all within my mind, beneath my See.
There is no other person who can love
For me. It is my duty and my joy.
It is the Truth that True Love is made

Ceiling of doubt
I was told the sky was endless,
But mine was a feather away
A low lid of shadows.
Every step echoes in a room
That was never meant to hold me.
Still, they say, reach higher.
But my hands find only fog,
And my faith slips through it
Like water through open fingers.
In despair, or deep sleep
I open my eyes
But I’m blind
Feeling my

Where Does Doubt Dwell?
Not between heaven and earth,
but between “yes” and “why.”
Not in the mouths of philosophers,
but in the wounds of those who had no time to read.
Doubt is a woman with bound hands
who waits for me night after night
to say I no longer love her.
But I come,
and keep silent,
and lie down beside her
like beside a mother who

My intent is wordless
In the wilderness of bewilderment,
Sculpting different sorts of thoughts,
Where intent fades, needing no interment,
And truth exudes from all its rots.
There lies the stark resolve for my future,
A slender hope of life ahead,
Bound together by a catgut suture,
That time corrodes until it's shed.
All kept away from prying eyes,
Ever before my intent was conceived,
Just to keep all

A Monster’s Misery
I don’t like mirrors anymore
They’re a reflection of everything I try to ignore
The acne on my face
My stomach gaining weight
These love handles aren’t fake
It sucks to be this way
Cause all I see is ugliness staring back at me
I don’t wanna be her
The one I call mother
For she’s

Woebegone!
When the darkness colors the midnight skies
And all your blessings seem in the past, you surmise
The ache of heart who knows nothing but lies
Listen to the story of His glory – He never dies
When the worries grow harder and you feel defeated
And all your heartfelt yearnings are uncompleted
The heavy hand of doubt causes you to

Fear in the Gate
it’s the groaning, spoken
a feeling, bleeding, bruising
remembering the broken
silence in the heart who’s losing
it’s the story, unfolding
dark as a shadow, stolen
by the ghostly, scolding
even my breath is swollen
it’s the distance between hope
and the futility of grave doubting
oh, if only I knew how to cope
how my soul is shouting!
it’s the color, gray and bleak
too weary for

Echoes: Veils of Uncertainty
A silver bird departs, the sky serene,
Yet morning’s promise shatters in a breath;
Ash falls where laughter and bright hopes had been,
A city mourns the sudden hand of death.
In distant hills, a traveler’s path grows cold,
A journey meant for dreams, now left undone;
The news arrives—too heavy to be told—
A vanished step, a race that’s never run.
Where

On Solid Ground
Don't you ever lose hope
Keep your feet on solid ground
Never doubt the Lord's great love
Seek Him while He may be found
The angels sing His praises
They exalt His mighty Name
They would move heaven and earth for Him
Leading souls who once knew shame
Alleluia blessed is the King
Throughout times of great trials
Peace to His people He will bring

One of a Kind
Why be concerned with transparency
People are blind, they really can’t see
With distortion and illusion in the word today
And bias and lies in what people say
Just be who you are, one of a kind
The truth will totally blow their mind
They’ll be so confused trying to figure you out
Their miscalculations will still leave them doubt
They’ll still try

Doubt
Everything I do in life
No matter how hard I try
It never does go right
I wish that I knew why
My failures are not something
Can I try to do purposely
Could it just be that life
Has simply turned against me
Rubber house I've been chosen
My destined to always fail
Whatever it

Vampire Bite - POTD
Come closer ears
Come closer hearts
I'll whisper as the lie departs
My lips
Will pout
My eyes will scan
The room surveyed as truthless
Scam
Devours with teeth
Pointed and sharper
Than gracious softness when truth
Doth scarper
The vampire bite
Without reflection
To veer your soul in wrong
Direction
Don't tell. It's just
Twixt you and me
No harm intended just..
Promise me
This won't be shared
I want the best
To pass this reputation

The Grace
They all say "It'll be alright.”
"You’ll get a job, save yourself—save your family."
"Trust the process,"—
that’s the song we’re all singing.
But deep down,
no one knows the struggle.
No one sees the nights we lie awake thinking,
or the doubts we've carved inside ourselves.
Do they even know
how hard it is
just to hold it together?
Sometimes,
we think of going out—
drinking the
