Blue-Black
Deeper into the blue
My indigo shines bitter and cruel
Darkly ablaze through velvet haze
Like the wilting rays of a world-weary sun...

I Saw God Today
I saw God today
In the face of a child.

I saw God today
In the bright blue sky.

I saw God today
In the face of a world-weary old man.

I saw God today.

But I don't think he saw me....

World Weary
Death and destruction.
All men stand alone.
Money is moral.
Our hearts are cold and
Love is forgotten.

My mother's love
Father's blessing
A child's laughter.
A sense of peace.

Where is hope.
What I see?
Selfishness.

Death, and
Chaos.

Why....

The Breeze
Before the breaking, my heart sees
Something beyond my expertise,

And on unknown sunny shores as these 
I find my circumstances freeze,

Feelings that make me ill at ease
Wrapped in a reassuring breeze,

A gust that brings me to my knees,
Playing on my insecurities,

World-weary eyes are hard to please;
The wind on my face disagrees,

Unwraps myself and gently frees
The happiness it guarantees....

Broken Souls
Battered by the harshness of life
Blindsided by Fate
Abandoned by their gods
These world-weary tattered souls
living on misguided beliefs and shallow ideals,
They are unable to break free from
the shackles of tolerance and indifference.

Who’ll mend their ways?
Neglected by their fellowmen
Forgotten by unforgiving time…
Oh, are these the children of a Lesser God?
