Riddle For You

I'm a prophet to some
and to others a freak
I make some men proud
and make other men weak
I have the power 
to drive most men insane
always without sorrow
I am never to blame
I live within all
but the soulless go free
with every decision
you come looking for me
although you may hate me
I'm constantly there
my final decision 
will always be fair
if you live without me
then you're living a lie
so now I ask you 
who am I?

Love In An Hourglass

Love in an hourglass
Sand scraping sand
The grains always falling
Getting higher as they land

Time a trusted companion
Though distance travels true
Love the great connector
Bridging me to you

Gently flows the sand
Curving down the glass
Reaching to the future
While leaving behind the past

Falling ever slowly
Landing ever light
Holding on to memories
Changing day to night

Time a weary warrior 
Divided in two parts
Feeling always separate
Though never in our hearts

Some time passes quickly
While some time passes slow
Before time passes us bye
There’s one thing you should know

Each grain brings us closer
Each day I love you more
Regardless of the time away
We’ll be better than before

Sometimes we may argue
And others we may fight
Love survives the winters
Endures the long cold nights

Time brings us healing
As spring ushers in the new
My love shines unhindered
Focused in on you

All my time is wasted 
When we stand apart
When we rise together
A better life can start

I’m sorry for the winters
I’m sorry for the time
I wasted living without you
Before I called you mine

My heart is always with you
My love is in your hands
Always filling up your life
Like the grains of sand.

Bring On the Blessings

Bring on the blessings
Shangrala the soul
Reap rewards from heaven
As momentum starts to roll

Supersede your  potential
Give the world your gift
Keep your passion flowing
And progress will be swift

Energize your empathy
Galvanize your grace
Clarify your compassion
And put a smile on your face

A hacienda of happiness
Is what your world should be
A galaxy of goodness
That leads you straight to me.

Tree

Every stage of development 
Is like the growth of a tree
It starts at the beginning 
With the planting of a seed
The seed spreads its roots
Taking nutrition from the land
God gives you knowledge
And shows you there’s a plan
As the roots take hold
And the seed begins to grow
God gives you strength
As the winds begin to blow
The light breaks through the soil
And a bud begins to sprout
God teaches you lessons
And takes the demons out
The bud breaks away
From all it used to know
It reaches for new heights 
And its spirit begins to glow
It turns into a sapling 
As the rain comes pouring down
To stimulate it’s growth
So it can rise above the ground
At the end of many seasons
Lies a strong and sturdy tree
With a plethora of knowledge
And an infinite amount of seeds.

My Cure

With your extravagant beauty 
and your radiant light
you are just like a rose
such a beautiful sight

If I could choose only one
then you'd be the girl
If the world was my oyster
then you'd be my pearl

Love within life
and love within death
I'll whisper to you
with my very last breath

I never question my heart 
because true love is pure
when life is my poison
then you are my cure.
