Foolish Man

Foolish man 
Says there is no God
And that the universe was created from chaos
But what this poor simpleton did not know
Was that the sun did not shine by accident
And the moon did not rise by mistake
Foolish man says there is no God
And that the man evolved from apes
But evolution is a blunder
The Lord who made lighting and thunder
Made everything in a perfect order
Foolish man says there is no God and question His existence
But the Lord created time
And He controls men’s mind
A world driven by sin
Will always be in a mess
But if you let the Sheppard lead you
You are sure to make success
Foolish man says there is no God
And argues that destiny is a joke
But a no man on this earth wishes to be broke
And if wishes were horses beggars will fly
And if all men could conquer fate
Then no man will die
Foolish man says there is no God
And argues that he has never since His face
But the face of the Lord is on every man’s face irrespective of his race
Foolish man says there is no God
And he claims that every event in the world has a rational explanation
But he could not explain what happened on the 23 of February
When his helicopters vanish
Or he suddenly started speaking Spanish
And he pondered and he pondered and he pondered
Foolish man says there is no God 
And he thinks he has secrets hidden in vaults
But the Lord is omnipresent
And no matter what you do
He will see you and can stop you even before you are through

The mask

I'm sitting here with lots to say
But silence most likely is the best way 
Thoughts so dark, even im scared 
A problem halved, but no problem shared

Lots of talk of darkness and light
A history thats filled with spite
Lighting and thunder is all its been
Feeling iv lived my life in sin

I've made mistakes, some I regret
Lies i told id rather forget
I'm older now and much wiser
For all she's done, I still can't despise her

Disassociated, trying to fight it
Darknesss can't win, I can't submit 
Losing track of days and nights
The fire within me i need to ignite

Sleep is now a thing of the past 
Nights so long, days so fast 
I don't know how much longer this will last

Iv always been a lover not a fighter
Iv had better days my life has been brighter 
Fiercely loyal, a push over though
Nobody knows I feel this low

I hide it well behind a smile
Showing the truth to the world is not my style
But maybe I need to let someone know 
This mask i wear is all for show

You see its easier to smile and hide
Then it is to admit your whole life was a lie
I wish she kept saying he was dead
The truth hurt more, the lie lives in my head

I don't know if I'm coming or going
Racked with fear of what is coming 
I think I just need to sleep 
My body aching, becoming weak

The mask i wear is slowly fading
The past in my head recreating 
Maybe tonight will be the night
That I'll be stronger and ill win the fight 

Good vs evil, lie verses truth
My inner child i need to soothe 
I cant forgive, I won't forget
I also can't keep being this upset

My mask has faded, it is no more
This is me now, but I wish you had known me before 
Full of love and full of life
Maybe ill be her again in time

But until then, this is me
My heart on my sleeve, no protection, I'm free
No mask in sight, feelings laid bare
Living my life on a whim and a prayer

A problem halved, but no problem shared
I realise now she never cared 
And though that hurts and breaks my heart
My life is mine, this is my restart

The mask is gone, this is me
Iv laid it out for the world to see
The battle is always darkness vs light
Iv let you know I hate who you see

You now know what its like to be me....

Brown Boy Dreams

Brown boy sleeps with his head on his grandmothers lap, 
 
She combs his pitch black hair as he drifts off
 
Brown boy dreams, of a world with the light stolen by thieves from a different land
 
he dreams of lighting and thunder, forces of destruction that clouds the light 
 
Brown boy awakens, It was just a dream

Brow boy dreams, dreams of a time where he can never let go of his grandmothers grasp

he looks up into the clouds, he sees a bright light, 

He dreams, and sees a dragon, 

Scared, brown boy awakens, it was just a dream
Brown boy dreams of his grandmother revealing her sword and luring the dragon.
 
He dreams of his grandmother fighting the dragon and he just stares in amazement 
 
But as she drops her sword the dragon attacks
 
And his dream fills with the sounds of
Brown boy dreams, he picks up his grandmothers sword

Hes never stood up to the dragon

Brown boy dreams, of his grandmother teaching him how to survive, 

He dreams, and as the dragon dives right for him 

Hes met head first with the tip of the sword

Brown boy dreams,

And he dreams

And he dreams
As the dragon falls to the ground,

Rises his grandmother holding hands

With a line of those who came before 

Brown boy Greets his ancestors for the first time, 

he welcomed them home, 
for good

Premium Member God Rains Down In My Heart

(the sound of rain, a storm)


As I fathom the sounds of jubilee;
Raindrops, falling, raindrops falling down on me
Showering, blundering, drenching all around up and down and on top of me;
I feel the breathes, I see the rain;

And I'm wet of the tears from heaven;
and I'm blessed by the lighting and thunder falling down;
Falling down, drenching me, wetting me from my head to my knees;

so why am I running. . .
Stay, stand still feel the rampart;
Feel the blessings from God's rain;
Showering blessings though I can't comprehend it;
Everything's flesher after the rain;

Stay, stand still feel the ramparts;
Feel the precise part;
Oh, what a beautiful start;
As God rains down in my heart;

So why you still running;
Stay, stand, stand still and feel the rampart;
Let's start feeling the blessings though I can't comprehend it;
Everything's flesher after the rain;

better, don't you feel better;
flesh, clean, so clear don't you feel better after the rain;
God rains down in my heart;
So I now feel better after the rain;

And after all;
From the heavens, from glory, to the rain lands turn waterfalls;
I have it, I have it, I got it all;
So wet, soaken wet, yet I'm blessed;
Cause God rains down in my heart;
And given me a new start;

I have it, yes got it all His showered blessings;
and after all;
From the heavens  rom glory to the rain lands turns to waterfalls;
I have it all;
I shall not fall;
Because God is showering me with He presents;
Tho, I've sinned and yes I too fell, but live to tell;

that I feel better, fresh clean so clear;
drenched from the heavenly;
This is what God done to me;
As He reigns , He rain down in my heart;
Staying, standing here to feel the rampart;
Feeling the joys precise gifted part;
Of what this is a beautiful start;
As God rains down in my heart;

As I fathomed the sounds of jubilee;
Raindrops, rain from God falling on me;

Showering, glistering, thundering, blundering all around me;
Now I'm drenched in His love from end to start;
God rains down in my heart;

Premium Member An Angel Sees His Face

He loves to watch her bathe in the moonlight.
The silver light casts an unearthly glow!
In shadowed bushes he stays through the night.

Watching her intently no one can know.
Him, a fallen one entranced by her grace.
The silver light casts an unearthly glow!

A guardian angel without a face.
This night his choice to take on human form.
Him, a fallen one entranced by her grace.

As sky darkens he feels the coming storm.
Tumultuous waves dragging her under!
This night his choice to take on human form.

He screams out amidst lighting and thunder!
Battle for her life lost to raging Sea.
Tumultuous waves dragging her under...

She is taken, now an angel to be.
Battle for her life lost to raging Sea.
She loves to watch him bathe in the moonlight.
In shadowed bushes she stays through the night!

I exchanged she for he in the last stanza. Hopefully you will allow a bit of poetic licence.


Never Forget That All Love Is Eventually Lost-

I once walked in the falling snow holding your hand
I was always warm even if it was frozen outside
and in the summer we would tiptoe in the sand
but like the sea your love has changed its tide
you said things weren't the same as before
and made me not want to love anymore
 
you and I would lie under the shooting stars
and forget that we were humans too
promising each other we would make it far
but both the promises and stars fell into the blue
you've left me lying alone on that grassy floor
and made me not want to love anymore 
 
when times get quiet all I do is wonder
if you are thinking about me as well
especially during storms of lighting and thunder
and when, behind us, moonlit shadows fell
you lost the time for me and the ability to adore
and made me not want to love anymore
 
I once couldn't be happier like a innocent child
whenever we would sleep together at night
you'd close your eyes and I just always smiled
but you were confused on what was wrong and right
and like your eyes, you soon closed my heart's door
and made me not want to love anymore
