Nothing really ends alternately,
reversing the life story endlessly.
Dressing own life with a passionate dream,
comes the selfishness reincarnated as a being.

The dramatic flows comes to an end,
gap between them is so wide to paint.
remembering the story is so much to take,
forsaking the past as their story becomes a fake....

You will do it until it’s finished
You will carry out and bring it to completion
With unmatched power and incomprehensible ability
You will do it
You are not one who will let us down
And punish with unrewarded goals
Totally looking up to You Lord
Put our faith on You
Our heart trusts in You
To the goal that will be your doing
Your majestic hands 
We will be relying on...

Broken wings,
I am dead inside,
these crooked things,
they bleed me out,...
was soaring high,
suddenly came crashing down,
i hope to die,
i shall never fly,.....
wasted love,
unrewarded care,
must let go somehow,what else can i do?......
oh heathen gods,
hear my plea,
strike me down,
and set me free,....
heaven or hell,
where ever i go,
so sweet my death knell,
freedom at last............

no good deed goes unpunished
no bad deed unrewarded
just deciding which is what
the altruistic and the sordid

depends upon the angle of view
what an act is deemed to better
and who it might be bettered to
gain advantage, and who's the debtor

gray is life's chromatic scale
certainty colored by present perception
think our discernment to no avail
that may be our own self-deception

clarity is the provenance of youth
blurrier is wizened maturity's truth
