Shambles
My life is in shambles
Through the smiles and the rambles
It all slips though my fingers
I can't hold it yet it lingers
To torture and to taunt
My mind seems to flaunt
All that I am not
In the pit of my stomach it will rot
As I fear all I am now
Who I'll become and how
Little me would be so

Shambles
The old homestead is a shambles,
nearly hidden in wild brambles.
My mind reveals a happy place
that had once held your funny face.
The tree swing we once swung upon
is fallen rotted and now gone.
How many the years, or the miles,
have stolen those days of our smiles?
I survey the giant oak trees
we would climb for a cooling breeze.
Now

The Shambles
One day I appear in the supermarket
in sweatpants and T.
Stained nocturnal, I drive my son to a concert,
then sleep in that T, eat breakfast in that T,
wear that T all day,
shamble into the night.
I have entered the middle,
the shambling center
that is the patched heart
of aging.
Days are thrown together,
nights hang on the backs of a chairs,
rumpled

Submit To Shambles
Submit to shambles release the pain
The fiery heart indulges a fiery gain
Up in arms will the whole world draw
As soon as the shark opens its jaw
The skies flash across a motionless earth
Touch down rays of lightening across the hearth
And to this very spot where it struck runs dry
To my hope to survive broke by my

In Shambles
A reputation in shambles
Was it worth the gamble
When you paint the sky orange
Everyone knows
It's supposed to be blue
So who are you to decide otherwise
Just a counterfeit king
With questionable authority
And a facade of moral superiority
Is just the tip of the iceberg
Beyond the sky
Is a kingdom wrought with gold
But you sold your ticket
For a pocket of heartache
And

Hills In a Shambles
Shudders the hill sky
Blood shed in Darjeeling on
The larks have vanished
Tea gardens are sad
Vultures jab among green leaves
They chip snowy peace
Gunshots in blue wind
Woodcutter birds make no holes
Hill dress torn to shreds
Intrastate conflict
Native ego reddening
Snakes out in summer

Shambles To Glory To Shambles
Noire,greenish and poisonous,
cold freezing,
in heaps,
incoherent and sad,
in flakes that were shambles,
she was an emotional wreck,
some black african mamba had bitten,
and bitten deep in,
soul had been torn,
and faith was tattered and worn,
she was at mercy of HIM,
seeking succour and relief,
forlorn and gone,
she had none.
I happened by chance,
I was aghast and stung,
that was cruel,
to have a full

Shambles
Cry my eyes out
See me fall to pieces
Scattered across the ground
Hear my voice
You find hearing the crack painful
But you haven't even seen the crack in my heart
There is no way to describe
I am deep in this hole
And there is no way back
I am scarred
Left in shambles
Scattered across the ground
Crying my eyes out

Ramble On Shambles.....
Undaunted Angelic cries
high pitched frequency
between my eyes
unheard words
are slowly burned
loving truth forever yearn.....
Dispel the voices in my head
tempting action fall to dread
visions wanting,images haunting
cunning are their tricks come flaunting
arrogant......yet ignorant
into God's hand is where I'm meant
but while I'm here in constant battle
the dust will settle,matter will be handled
consciousness of rightousness
heart of hearts are truly

To Be Left In Shambles (The Misery Psalm)
I kept on thinking of you
How you just left me in shambles
and formed my heart into a boulder
Blocking my will to ever love again
You left me because of something
that you could handle but....you didn't want to
Because you didn't care....but I did
I cared for you even if I wasn't privileged
But you left me in grief
You
