Imperfect Human

From the earliest desires an earthly fires,
Walls have fallen,
The chains have broken, 
Spirits envision an escape,
This lent body that vessels me is weary,
Reality is seeking happiness in my ancestor’s footprints,
Trials of misled passions has formed my faith,
Dreams have been banished by failures command,
Conformity has become a slave to commercial processes,
Shall i eternalize my stagnation or just become a civilized drone?
Purged souls are predestined to kneel on alters of bullied repentance,
I am the melody of chaos,
I am the imperfect human...

My Daughter

WHEN FAITH IS ASKING QUESTIONS, 
TEMPORARY TORTURES ARISE,
MY STRENGTH FAILS AS IF MEANT FOR ATONEMENT,
READING SCRIPTURE HAS MADE THIS SOUL RAGGED,
 DEATH IS NEEDED EVEN IN LOST NOWS, 
THIS FEELING HAS UNCHAINED MY THINKING,
YET CERTAIN TRUTHS ARE PAINFULLY MUTE, 
TIME HAS LEFT MY MEMORIES IN THE CRADLE,
BUT STILL WHISPER TO THE TEMPORARY EMPTY,
THE DRIED FLOWERS  FROM YOUR REBIRTH ARE
FADED,
THE PETALS HIDE THE TRUE HAUNTINGS OF LIFE , 
AS THE EARTH CALLS TO GOD,
THE SAME I CRY OUT TO MY DAUGHTER...

Back To the Sea

THE  SUNSET WASHES IT'S  LOVE TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE UNIVERSE

I STAND BEFORE YOU AS A SOUNDLESS WHISPER,ONLY YOU AND THE SOFT SEA CAN HEAR,FOR WE ARE A PART OF IT,

WAVES AN MOONLIGHT MINGLE WITH CONVERSATIONS, I BECAME HUMBLED IN ITS WISDOM,

THE SECRETS OF TIMELESS LOVE HAS PERFORMED FOR US,FOR WE WERE WORTHY, 

STARS ALIGN  WITH REVERBERATED CHANTS  BECKONING THE  NIGHTS CALL FOR ME TO COME BACK TO THE SEA....

The Broken Child

WHILE MY EYES ARE SHUT,MY HEART IS UNBOUND,PURE KNOWLEDGE IS DEVELOPING,AS I WALK TO THE SHORES OF GHOSTLY REGRETS I FIND MY FAITH IS QUESTIONING THE SONG OF ANOTHER SPIRIT.
AS I SIT HERE AND KNEEL IN FALSE CHARM, THE NIGHT ONCE AGAIN REMEMBERS HER STORY......

WHEN I WAS A CHILD I HELD ON TO A STRING, IT WAS AS LONG AS AN ANGELS WINGS,ATTATCHED TO THAT WAS A LITTLE GIRL WHOSE DREAMS WERE SPLINTERED AND BROKEN,
SHE GREW UP ON DEBRIS OF SHATTERED LOVE AND DELICATE DEATHS,MANY SILENT NIGHTS SHE EMBRACED AN UNSEEN UNIVERSE,THAT RETURNED EACH SPRING WITH BLOOMING PAIN AND SUFFERING.
HER ACTIONS UNTIED MANY SECRETS AND SHE KNEW SOON SHE WAS NOT TO BE. 
HER INNOCENT TEARS WERE NO MORE SACRED,
FREQUENT DISCOMFORTS WERE ABSORBED,WHY WAS ASSUALT A SUBSTITUTE FOR A MOTHERS AFFECTION ?
 TIRED AND NUMB SHE ANSWERED FOR THE HATRED FOR ALL INDIVIDUALS,PRAYERS CANT SAVE WHEN TORTURE IS A CONVIENIENCE,
 THESE MEMORIES ARE THE PRISON OF A BROKEN CHILD.

Self Love

What must I do to just get through
To unlock a world I never knew
Closed eyes are now open wide,
Learning to love what I once despised.

Earthly Shrines

MY MIND ESCAPES RUSTLING THOUGHTS WRAPPED IN IMAGES OF ENDLESS RIVERS AND SNOW WHITE SKIES,

THIS ENCHANTMENT OF  BEAUTY HAS RIPENED MY ADULT IMAGININGS, 

 CLOUDS DANCED WITH UNTOUCHABLE CHOREOGRAPHY,
 ALL THAT IS HOME TO ME WAS INFRONT OF MY EYES,

LANDSCAPES ENTICE THE PASSIONS OF ALPINE HEIGHTS,
THE HEART OF NATURE WAS LIKE ADMIRING A SUNSET IN CHILDHOOD RECESSES,

AS I LAY IN THIS NEST OF BENDING BLISS,
 IM LOST IN A RUSH OF EARTHLY SHRINES.

Never Choose Love Out of Fear

AS YOUR LOVE TWIST THE BLADE,THIS DIDNT NEED TO BE, FROM THIS DARK I COUNT YOUR SELFISH NEEDS,WHY IS LIFE SO BITTERSWEET,ASCENDED FROM HELL THAT MUCH I KNEW FROM THE POISONS THAT YOU SPEWED , ILL NEVER ANSWER TO YOUR GUILTING SIGHS ,YOU BLESSED MY LOVE THEN MADE ME CRY,I'LL NO LONGER CARRY YOUR  CROSS,I'VE BLED ENOUGH FOR THE LOST, I DONT CARE HOW MUCH YOU PLEAD,EVEN THE DEAD DESERVE TO BE FREE,THE BEAUTY OF THIS MASQUERADE IS THAT YOU WONT ESCAPE THIS BED YOU'VE MADE,STATUED LOVE WAS NEVER TO BE, THESE CHAINS OF VOWS ARE AGONY,FROZEN IN DARKNESS A PRISONER OF A BLINDED MIND,MY HISSING HEART WAS PREPARED FOR LIFE,I ENTERED WAR WITH A STRANGER WHO CALLED ME WIFE, CAN STRENGTH AID ME IN THIS FIGHT,OR AM I PRAYING TO A DEAF DIVINE ?FATHER FORGIVE ME AS I FELL INLOVE,I DIDN'T HAVE PATIENCE ,I WAS YOUNG AND SMUG,I NOW UNDERSTAND WHY IM HERE,NEVER CHOOSE LOVE OUT OF FEAR.....

Take the Time

I WISH THAT ALL ANGRY VOICES AREN'T MISUNDERSTOOD, THAT PRAYERS CAST UPON THE SAINTLY ARE LOUDER THAN A WHISPER ,THAT THE DIFFERENT  WILL NOT  BE AN ORCHARD THATS BEEN PERMITTED TO  PICK ON FREELY,THAT ENDLESS PERSECUTIONS AND COMMUNITY HATREDS FIND A COMMON HUMANE GROUND, THAT STARS SHINE BRIGHTER FOR HEAVY BURDENED HEARTS,THAT BITTER CUPS NEVER QUENCH YOUR THIRST,THAT WHICH ILLUMINATES US BE SHARED IN A POSITIVE LIGHT, THAT ALL RELIGIONS  BE SHELTERED AN NOT DESTROYED BY MORTAL REAPINGS..THAT WE TAKE TIME TO UNDERSTAND.....

Justice For All

As I sit in this dark silence,I remember the landscapes of the sky that were once veiled by a song of gratefulness, I used to dream of journeying with the moon and sailing in a field of sunflowers,

But I'm now floating in debris of slain voices, My eyes carry burdens of broken visions,death hangs on heavens wishes that use to be christened prayers
From this deep audacity a routine has taken form. 

Openhandness has been cut from the very body that freedom recruited,
Patriotic traitors struggle with inferiority,
What equal boundaries permit bloodshed to replace peace instead of compassion ?

Is there justice for all ?

After the Fall

Will he still love me after I fall,As many before me I proclaim to know it all,My weakness is stupidity, and failing to listen,When he spoke to me my heart would glisten,I'm now grounded with no one to blame, Hiding my face,fallen in shame,When I was to only look I felt compelled to see,I broke his heart,I broke me,Was this my purpose a human in need,Or an entertaining angel with clipped wings ?
