Premium Member Present Day Potential Education

Anyone with a connection to the internet has the ability,
to self educate themselves greater than at any prestigious university,
especially if you're one who seeks self education seriously and passionately.
All one needs to do is to type in the subject you desire to self educate,
and you'll be provided with many avenues to passionately study and investigate,
and then whenever you feel you need a self educating break,
your connection will bring whatever you find relaxing or entertaining to date.
Sadly most use this technology for entertainment and profit purposes only.
If only all could recognize our present self educating opportunity,
this world would be a far better place, I truly believe.
Far better than most people today could ever possibly conceive.

Our Present Day Is the Worst Time

People grieve the loss of their moms and dads,
and the worst thing is that they couldn't see 
them on the their final moment and hold their hand
by the bedside...how horrible that is!
How heartwrenching it must be!
We all have been affected in tragic ways,
but if the soul can't weep, that pain remains
acute and won't ever escape misery!
Have you lost a dearest friend,
so suddenly and the least expected?  

A good cry can heal and comfort 
the saddest and the lonliest heart,  
if it finds who can alleviate its sorrow;
only a few are able to heal their wounds,
but who's willing to sacrifice their time,
putting aside vanity and pride...  
before they notice the glances of afflictions?
Can anyone prevent what is to come?

Our present day is the worst time 
for afflictions and its hopelessness is invasive 
and mortal thinking that we are trapped and eventually die 
of depression and solitude before we are rescued by others
can prayers alter fate when all attempts have failed us?
What else can we do to stay afloat and survive?

Present-Day Judas

Can't trust him
He betrayed me
He laid me
Under the fire
Yeaa, he burned me
If I was a Roman I'd call him Brutus
But since I'm catholic, lets call him Judas
Trusted judas once, trusted him twice
After the third time, realized I was tooo nice
But I was finished, fed up, was done
So I prayed in the name of the spirit, father and son 
That I remain calm, forget and forgive
My prayers were answered, but I no longer live
Of course judas was the cause of death
His literal stab in my back 
Caused me to breathe my last breath
But I have no regrets, because now I know
My soul has risen above, where his will sink below

Present Day Cinderella

Present Day Cinderella 


Screaming is all I hear
Cuss words thrown across the room
She has to yell
Makes me want to die
I want to run away
But I still have to go back to that place
This is what I call home
Constant cleaning
This is the present
This is where I am
It could be worse
But this is hard
This is why I don't know love
This is why I don't want to go home
She is there
My mother
I know she cares
But I cant help but think
Without her it'd be better
Today I am Cinderella
Always cleaning
Always babysitting
Boys who know wrong from right
But don't show it
Never asking for anything
Then at night
Being screamed at
Because she cant recognized all i do

Tomorrow's Present Day

Somewhere in sand 'n stone,
This beach lays open 'n wide 'n cold.
Not from the standpoint of emptiness found in it's ocean,
But in the form of purified space and beauty's isolation.

Footsteps patter amongst outskirts but never after.
Under on-top and through most ever past laughter.
A fervent not hesitant share in elsewhere mire,
Hope splotched sky in a place of mind so narrow I tire.

In my view of decades calls them soon,
Kindle the image inside without the tears.
Sought in pictures I search the vast clouds,
Spanning the orange bray horizon held by fears.

Oh the brunt daft-ness of timing,
Yield focus on the fine frame of next,
Paired to the motion of cause and treasure,
Covered shores with the single statued annex.

Not lost cause ground never before gained,
Stars sing so brightly on this perfectly white grain,
Where miles of untouched beach seamlessly lay,
Time and time again until tomorrow's present day came.
