"I don’t think of all the misery
but of the beauty that still remains."
Anne Frank
My heart does mourn looking through windows pane,
As my eyes adorn the bright blue summer’s sky…
My spirit torn for I touch the brittle rain,
And the flowers born speak to me before they die…
I see the gallant rainbows dancing but in their vain,
Humming of music to compose as the day turns to grey…
A ballerina on her tippy toes struggling to abstain,
Holding a rampageous rose as the red drips away…
Upon the beauty of all things I lay me down to sleep,
Awoken by a fruity morn in a silent sadness I do not weep.

Amidst the Barbaric heathen hordes
Mordacious majesty’s scrofulous swords
Corroding cathedrals in the morning mist
Rampageous residuals that we must resist
In the valleys of darkness, my soul savors still
For the bloodstained moon begins her spill
The ruffled red rains down upon the tombstones
As the Kings and Queens sit upon their thrones
The lecherous Lords satisfyingly seduce
The mawkish women that are on the loose
Marauding minstrels that strangle the streets
In the valley of shadows where the darkness meets.

My Love pours down with amber rain
To fill your heart that I may gain
Burgundy hues in lavender skies
My Love keeps pouring as it slowly dies
The rain subsides with a rampageous red
With salivating sorrows that surly spread
Melancholic meadows murkily mist
As tears tear the heart of Love that’s missed
Weary words withering ways
Love is trapped in a hellion haze
The rain comes again to soothe the mind
As we follow the road that is undefined
Your love deluded to a savourless stain
As I keep searching in the Amber rain.

My heart is raging….
I’m raging, churning, foaming
Driven WILD...
Incensed, appalled, angered
Filled with BILE
I’m savage, delirious, raving
Mad
Barbaric, feral, tempestuous
BAD
I’m tossing, storming, brewing
About to pound
Crashing, smashing, demolishing
Declared Unsound
I’m rampageous, furious, livid
Untamed
I’ll batter, break, uproot
And upbraid
I'll take you, shake you, hound you
Demand
Seize you, posses you, undress you
Command
Unleashed, unchained, unbroken
Free
Beware, take care, watch out…
FOR ME!
