Untitled, Part 2

3;

listening on repeat;
lyrics pervading my mind;
hearing them for what they r;
hearing them for what they mean;

1-;
"dear agony, just let go of me, suffer slowly, is this the way it's gotta b?;
dear agony...;

suddenly the lights go out, let forever drag me down, i will fight for one last breath, i will fight until  
the end...;
i will find the enemy within, cause i can feel it crawl beneath my skin..."(Dear Agony, Breaking Benjamin);

2-;
"when there's nowhere else to turn, and all ur bridges have been burned, feels like u've hit rock bottom...;

don't give up its not the end, open up ur heart again, when u feel like no one understands where u r...;

someone loves u, even when u don't think so, don't u know, u got me and Jesus...;

by ur side through the fight, u will never b alone, on ur own, u got me and Jesus...;

after all that we've been through, by now u know i've doubted too, but every time my head was in my 
hands, u said to me...;

someone loves u, even when u don't think so, don't u know, u got me and Jesus...;

by ur side through the fight, u will never b alone, on ur own, u got me and Jesus...;

hold on to what we got, this is worth any cost, so make the most of life thats borrowed, love like there's no 
tomorrow...;

someone loves u, even when u don't think so, don't u know, u got me and Jesus...;

by ur side through the fight, u will never b alone, on ur own, u got me and Jesus..."(Me and Jesus, Stellar 
Kart);

words piercing my mind;
invading my thoughts;

fight...fight it;
it is here...fight it;
we can do it...together defeat the darkness;
me by ur side...u by mine...we can do this;
together...conquering anything;

4;

i messed up...i need some change;
i understand...i am willing;
i want u...i need u...i long for u;
u have my heart;
u...r...my...heart;

i feel with u;
i struggle with u;
i feel anger with u;
i weep with u;

but helpless i feel when causes r unknown or hidden;

wanting u to b happy;
wanting to make u smile;
wanting to make u laugh;
always;
that is the true desire of my heart;

when ur angry...i feel it;
when ur happy...i feel it;
when ur sad...i feel it;

i never want u to hurt;
i never want to hurt u;

first impression ruined;
sorrow attained;
never to b done over;
but striving to improve;
to prove myself to u;
to erase the bad and show the good;

Knight of the Masquerade- Part One

chill;
evening;
darkest moon;

slowly approaching;

shroud of darkness;
castle appearing;

from the mist the knight emerges;
gallant knight so young and brave;
armor of steel...sword of silver;
well put together is this knight;
massive steed so strong and powerful;
white as the snow...swift as the wind;

brilliant knight on steed approach;

lower the drawbridge is shouted from within;
soldiers obey and the bridge opens...like the great mouth of a dragon;

the knight is hesitant knowing what lies ahead;
it is not the people who scare him but his fear of revealing...revealing his true emotion;
he cannot let his guard down;

his mind races;
remember your training...be strong, be steadfast;
you are a knight of the castle;
you must set an example;

be strong...be courageous;
show no fear...never give up;

entering the town the knight flips up his visor yet puts on a mask;

a mask of happiness;

his steed halts...he slowly dismounts;
he is greeted by friends and family;

the mask remains intact;

to see the king the knight now goes;
pondering which mask should he use now;
a mask of victory is now put on;

the king is greeted...long live the king;
the king is pleased;
the knight leaves the court;

stronger than any storm;
mightier than any wind;

Beast-Attention and Approval

seeking attention, the beast stalks;
seeking approval, the beast stalks;

attention;
seek it, the beast does;
always seeking, is the beast;
attention, constantly;
in the midst of life, the beast seeks;
to the point of annoyance, the beast seeks;
tugging, prodding, pushing problems upon others for attention;
...
cowers; 
cowers when seeking turns to anger;
anger on the part of the attention giver;
always seeking attention leads to tension;
...
three step process;
one, the beast seeks attention;
two, the beast is denied by giver because preoccupied;
three, the beast cowers;
the beast does not cower because of fear;
the beast cowers because of the feeling of a wrong having been done because of interruption;
the beast apologizes, yet the feeling of interruption still reigns;

switch it up

approval;
seek it, the beast does;
always seeking, is the beast;
approval from parents, the beast seeks;
approval from friends, the beast seeks;
approval from life, the beast seeks;
is this good enough?;
will this do?;
always seeking approval, is the beast;

return

who is this beast?;
who is this beast?;

...i am the beast

Be Still, and Just Be

wind;
calm;
warm;

on the wind;
voices heard;
sounds echoing;

breeze;
cool...refreshing...renewing sun;

rays;
rays of sunlight renew and refresh;

wince;
rays hit my eyes...not caring though;
feeling the warmth;

warm...but cold;
heat...and chill;
fire...and ice mixing as one;
visions of sun...visions of snow;
joining together as one;

music;
music heard on the wind;

Creator;
relationship with creation;
interaction together as one;
unite under the Creator;
all is good because He has created it;

the beauty and splendor of the Creation;
living with creation as one;

speaking of Him;
talking about His nature;
His character;
His ways;
interpreting His actions;

knowledge...interpretation;
will we ever know?;
will we ever discover His true character?;
no one knows;

the Creator and His creation;
interacting;

as I sit here I interact with the creation;
interacting with the creation interacts with the Creator;

coming full circle;
thinking...interpreting...feeling...sensing;

be still and interact with the creation;
be still and interact with the Creator;

be still;.

With New Ears, With New Eyes

new;
listening on repeat;
interpretations change;
meanings emerge;
emotions surface;

application;
longing to b there;
to make u laugh;
to relieve ur pain;
to help u forget the darkness;
to b a shelter from the storm;

with every listen comes new meaning;
constantly finding new meaning, new direction;

with new ears and new eyes i listen now;
the song, with new ears;
the song, with new eyes;

the meaning changes, new melodies brought to my ears;
the meaning changes, a new light shown to my eyes.

Knight of the Masquerade- Part Two

back to his dwelling he shall go;
the mask of victory still remains;

home again...finally;
safety has been reached;
mask can finally be removed;

the mask of victory is removed;
the true face of the knight is unmasked;
his war-torn and scarred face is revealed;
marred and scraped from the heat of battle;

who is this man?;
a tear streams down his face;
this hard-faced knight breaks down;
he can’t handle this but he has to keep face;

he puts on a mask once again;

he must keep face;
remember your training...be strong, be steadfast;
you are a knight of the castle;
you must set an example;
be strong...be courageous;
show no fear...never give up;

what mask does this valiant knight wear now?;
the fear of revealing his emotion chooses the mask;

situational masks adorn the knight’s face;
ever there...unceasing;

what happens now?;
he continues on...mask ever-present;
a new day...a new mask;
situations call for masks;
never showing truth;
this knight once again mounts his horse;
preparing himself for the ride to come;
helmet is worn...relief for a time;

this strong and valiant knight has up until now been unnamed;
the true name of this knight...;
his name...;
he is called the knight of the masquerade;.

He Creates

space, emptiness, devoid of contents;
He is there…ever knowing, all seeing, all powerful;

He…who is He?;
master, creator, judge, father;
omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent;
who was, who is, who will always be;

thoughts of creation;
swirling;
it begins;

He creates;
wind over water blows;
heavenly voice...light;
separation begins;
darkness and light creep away;
a new creation...day and night;

He creates;
boundaries of air;
the waters above and below separate;
dissension of the ranks...one higher, one lower;
separating water from water;
barrier of sky;

He creates;
moving, stirring, separating;
the waters divide;
dividing for a reason;
creating new life, creating space;
land;
plants of all kinds, grow and prosper;
seed shall be spread over all the lands that He has created;
land...created by Him;

He creates;
times of day, times of year;
identify with our surroundings;
finding our place in the universe;
seasons to designate time;
minutes to identify time;
things created to define time and space;
two masses...celestial bodies;
He creates two...sun and moon;
responsibility...govern day and night;

He creates;
fowl of air;
creatures of sea;
come forth at the beckon of He who created you;
heed His call;
obey His commands;
multiply and be fruitful;
populate this orb made by He who created you;

He creates;
beasts of the land come forth;
heed His call...the call of your creator;
arise...be fruitful and populate this creation;

He creates;
man;
in the image of Him it is formed;
man and woman in the image of Him;
created from dust, created from bone;
creation from creation;
proclaim..."You are to name the beasts, the fowl, the creatures, the plants;
name them all for that is your duty;
govern over land, sea, and air;
live in His creation;
protect His creation;
love His creation;"

Him on high sits, work finished;
glancing over all that was created; 
observing each detail, each feature, each characteristic;
it is good;
this is His creation; 
this is His world;
He is Creator;
rest.
