Visions Of Shadows

I begin the day
Arguing what I need to say
Fleeing battlegrounds
Missing you when I ask for more
And you stepped away
Asking where did you go today?
I am seeing visions of shadows in my mind
The demons inside me cry out for light
And I sought salvation from my alien dear
In webs of death I saw my bones shatter into dust
As I wake my blood runs cold and My senses lose control
You never came to save me now I am dying all alone
I begin my day asking if I lost control
through the broken sight
We lost everything we stood for
As I stand alone
I never knew you did not return
Before I fall asleep
I let go of the shallow souls
Spirit speaks to me, Mirror lets me take control

William O'Rourke

A patriarch falls
Clear summer morning fog stings
Family silent

Blades of glory

Traveling within the darkness. 
In shadows I am hidden
Clinging to the light.
Love overwhelms me.
Upright I stand.
You are my mirror. 
Reflect the sunshine.
Abundant hope fully alive.
Washing the path.
In trust we found peace.
Who is our King?
Sanity to reside at the round table.
Questing for silence.
Gain the favor of sorrow.
Taste the air full of magic.
Ask and it is ours.
Take nothing for granted and pledge to trust in Love.

Time Lord

Wisdom gained from pain
Lost tomorrow sentenced
Shadows think me insane

Tortured and blood soaked stains 
Detached from earth yet dependent
Wisdom gained from pain

Memory lies in the rain
Star gazing got me contentment
Shadows think me insane

Free to play games
Facing my own are sentenced
Wisdom gained from pain

Screams lament my gains
I enjoy refreshments
Shadows think me insane

In chains I am lame
Darkness leaves me unrepentant
Wisdom gained from Pain
Shadows think me insane

Darkness Over Taken By Light

Waves of terror shock my core. Divided by silence ever more.
Echoes of rocks falling from my grave, A river flowing toward another day.
As time moves on, the shelter holds us forever strong. 
Questions of madness arise and I am Wakened into this morning fright.
When I sang songs from a distance, they warned me I was only missing. 
Recall moments of oblivion, as shadows cling to my existence. 
Darkness has not overcome us and Our light guides us through this storm. 
Will justice take us toward the oceans edge, can emerald skies give us peace or will we watch the end tonight?
Hunger gathers stars that do not move. the wandering lights get me into my groove. Cast diamonds off toward the Abyss. In void I sought my answers and kings bent their knees to the roses.

Trance of The Zebra

Allow the rain 
Hunt for berries
Echoes cast our shadows
Accept the start
Deduce the summer nights

Lemon scented mead
Initiate the Eclipse
Escape the Bunker
Silver snow storms with warm shelter

Protect the youth
Educate society in past innovations
Allow for Patience and Understanding
Create solutions to advance Humanity
Erect monuments to recognize Greatness

Tidal Whirlpool

Into the darkness I drove the line.
With sudden persistence I stuck their spirits.
Questions arose about my faith.
Under the shadows the powers of the air quake.
Through blended fields I struck their souls.
Yoking my aura deep into the earth.
Waking the mountain it never crumbled.
Ascending the moon, we summit the sky.
Zero percent of my trust was lost.
Accepting the limits of music's healing powers.
Into the light I became the world's darkness.
Without warning I took down all their protections.
Queens discovered my resilience and my mercy.
Under heavy silver rain those in power ran to cover.
Thoughts of my greatness whispered in all secret places.
Yoga they have never seen with Mastery of all senses obtained.
Witnessing visions almost forgotten in ancient days long past.
Acquiring strength to find hope in sorrow.
Zooming past traps laid by fools.
Asking for amber rain.
Indigo rivers of royal blood spilt.
Without doubt I belong to empires yet founded and peoples yet born.

Autumn Remains

Loyal true friend strong
Leaves descend to the earth cold
Memories of You

Games and Dreams

Radiant waves of emotions, full of hope.
Hearty beef stew with raisins and pickled beats.
We gained wisdom from our mothers.
Trusting the saints who walk beside us.
Into rivers we bathe away our shadows. 
Lights favor us with songs.
Jungles of bone.
Sand gave us the glass.
Knitting heavens weave.
Yearning for earthquakes.
Wake us when the sky is gone.
Many did not wait for us.
Roses laid waste by acidic snowfall.

Nothing Remains

Chaotic romance.
Fearful dreams of war.
Lost in the river.
Wakeful spirit.
Chaotic storms.
Heavy snow falls.
Fate or chance?
