A Light So Bright

To the world one can be seen to be as small as an ant but it is a mountain spirit which one 
will see through words of truth and right, good over evil, one will see the light and brightness 
in one soul, not matched even by 4 of the earth’s sun. A light so bright it allows every other 
candle flame to become a forest fire to shine bright. A light so bright it will awaken the mind 
to the fight for Truth and Right, Good over evil, Love over war, Spirit over material things, a 
light with the power to unite, a light of understanding and righteousness.

I Will Carry On

When we were younger
Our hearts and hands had melded
And brightened up a world

Then in winter, came snowstorms
And lightning, to burn up our shelter
A dragon roaring proud

So we were dashed, were broken
A nasty scar formed upon the exit
And bleeds unto this day

Long after it was funny
Here I am still singing like we're together
It's nearly been three years

Now when we were younger
I felt just as strongly as I do now
That my love was the right choice

So you lash out, you slander
You're winning, or showing me the best
Do you feel like we do?

A cold bucket of water
Snaps me from my reverie
A long and pleasant dream comes to an end

My heart repeats its pounding
From nasty anxiety
It's like you never left this room at all

And through it all
Our rise and fall
We both think that we're correct
Or maybe we're just both projecting bright

To say you're wrong
Or say I'm wrong
Our love's curdled to anger
These effigies to what went wrong
It's all gone wrong
To you, I'm dead and gone and
To me, it's filled with longing

I can't really remember
What it was like long ago
This pounding in my chest feels like a dream

A living nightmare I once
Called my reality
A true return to form from years ago

It takes me back
And paints it black
And turns these fields to swamp
And any love I had has gone to rot

It's all gone wrong
The world is wrong
Such purity and lifelight
Has curdled into something wrong
This all feels wrong
It's been so very long and
Anxiety is strong and

You're showing the world the best
That you possibly can
Such is the way all of our old haunts work

So does it bother me when
I can only see that lie?
And fail to see foundations I once saw?

You're just presenting anger
Aimed to kill or maim
I don't think you really care which happens

You've only ever compared
Those you ever loved to those
Villains that you said tried to do you wrong

So what's the deal?
What do you feel?
Was anything for real?
Will you wreak this havoc upon the new guy?

What did it mean?
Was it a dream?
All those things we left behind
In order to witness another dawn?

To carry on
We'll carry on
Under penalty of perjury
I swear to you I'll carry on
I'll carry on
Even if these dreams haunt me forever
I swear to all, I'll carry on.

Shade of Grey

like the hands of a clock,
I watch the light
change angle,
as it moves trajectory 
crossing the face of the room,
literally


it’s as if the sun
is keeping time
for me,
saving me the energy
of actually looking


and when the light 
goes,
with a turn 
I became the silence
after the storm


watching flies
circling to their doom,
flypaper is buzzing 
with a will to live


Until,
cool fingers of twilight 
moved across my legs
up my torso 
and to caress my face,
in each kissed breath
I am invigorated to life


I stand tall … 
darkness my friend
brought life again


for in the shade there is always
hiding,
a light of hope


I watch in the silence of Grey
inhaling threads of ether

Premium Member Unfinished Work With Him Complete

Unpaved road in deep woods
Those trees like soldiers stood
Draped in color as a golden gown
The fall leaves worn as her crown

Looking ahead the rooad narrows
Glancing back a great horizon

Hard to be traveling here
The darkness engulfs total surround
Only enough light for one step 
One step ahead is all can be seen
On Him now totally have to lean

As slowly travel ahead
A bright light turns my head
On both sides and behind
Noises of animals in wood
Stomach rumbles for dinner time
Inching closer the light overpowers 
From within a Being comes closer
"Come in my child and a dine for you made it ..It's dinner time"..
