Thrust in the Center of the Storm; All I Could See Was You
turbulence unrelenting despite sand blown eyes squinting all I could see was you… tossed around slammed to the ground dazed and confused still all I could see was you… hope eternal in the midst of furious hell upon me that fell still all I could see was you… as I drank from a bitter cup of tears and fears my vision transfixed all I could...

Premium Member Thrust In The Centre Of The Storm All I Could See Was You
Serrated swathes of overwhelming savage gusts without compassion, directionless dilatory daydreamer that I am ostensibly vulnerable, to the serendipitous intrusion at a wispy sapphire cloud flaccid noon, the minimal load burdensome midpoint idle tranquil saunter, meteorological forecasts couched in plausible penetrating atmospheric vocabulary, nebulous references to malfunction and teetering patterns sooth mutual misgivings, imprudent...

Premium Member When Thrust in the Center of the Storm
Thrust in the centre of the storm’s wild roar, Oh Lord, my Heavenly Father, you were near. I relied on you and it was your kind face which I saw, That you mended my torn spirit when fear did gnaw. When wind howled loud and thunder boomed and burst, In your mercy that exceeded all bounds, I did trust. I knew...

Premium Member Thrust In The Center Of The Storm
Thrust in the center of the storm, all I could see was you; Brewing at the zenith of your strength, so hard to get through. But I dared rising up and chose to let you go, before ruining my life and lead me to an absolute fiasco.

Premium Member Thrust in the centre of the storm, all I could see, was you
The winds raged, the rain pelted The air howled like a mad wolf, hungry for blood Fright gripped me with ice cold claws And I did not feel safe from inside my house I armed myself with courage, aware that rainbows Shall show themselves after some time And the warmth of the sun Shall allow me to wear my confidence again As I...

Evil thrust
So many times I visit sorrow. I gave you my heart to borrow. I've walked this path too much. Evil as such. Horrifying to grasp this love. Blood covers the sin on my glove. I feast a lot on pain, Nothing but rejection to gain. I love, but not love that should be. I hide from that evil I so often see. So innocent from...

All said and done Nigeria is the giant of Africa Though currently lost in a maze of confusion The giant is on a journey of self-realization The journey of self discovery Shedding its skin of criminal enterprise Preparatory to launching into orbit of true colossus That destiny has thrust upon her Rapists currently taking advantage Of her lust for...

What's the scariest book you ever read?.. Some Stephen King book like "Salem's Lot" or "The Shinning"? For me its Kate Millett's "Sexual Politics".. Oh, man..
