"i Found My Best Friend"

I scream,
but no sound
Trapped inside of my mind
This person is not me
This is a shell of someone I used to be

The emptyness of lonleyness,
My fear,
disquised in the image of a friend.
A long forgotten friend,
I prayed would never return

The darkness has come to destroy me,
here to try again
I want to breakfree, to run and hide

I struggle against the forces of darkness,
only to find myself falling backwords,
into the hands of the enemy
I walk behind him,
living in the shadow of his lies

A voice inside my mind screams
No! Don't you go, dont you leave
Remember me?
Remember me!
I am the one who saved you,
I will never leave

In the mist of my darkness, my despair,
I looked within,
and descovered a love story
I found my best friend!
He gentely wrapped himself around me,
and embraced me in his light

Living In the Shadow of His Lies

I scream,
but no sound
Trapped inside of my mind
This person is not me
This is a shell of someone I used to be

The emptyness of lonleyness,
My fear,
disquised as a friend.
A long forgotten friend,
I prayed would never return

The darkness has come to destroy me,
here to try again
I want to breakfree, to run and hide

I struggle against the forces of darkness,
only to find myself falling backwords,
into the hands of the enemy
I walk behind him,
living in the shadow of his lies

THE voice inside my mind says,
YES!
I allow myself to fall into the familiar hands of
emptyness
The abyss of nothingness,
wraps its wrath around me
and beckons me home.

On Butterfly Wings

Two souls join as one, 
beneath the heavens.
Love claims its throne!
Cups of gold spill upon,
outstretched hands.
Waterfalls sound the heartbeats of thunder.
Angles sing songs of love,
written on butterfly wings.
Butterflies flutter above blankets of meadows.
Bringing forth seeds of harvest,
planted along the river edge.
Where roses of red bloom.
Flowing rivers channel forth,
to the see of tranquility.
Waves kiss the shore.
True love dances,
Under moon light.
