Seasons In, Seasons Out

Leaves falling down, 
Autumn time, so dry
Tears falling, time flying 
Summer, so hot, spring passed
Thought could feel thee warmth during, 
The cold winter days
On a whiter snows, i appeared darker 
And lost, kicking stones and splashing water
Dwelling in thee dry leaves 
No sign of you
Waited till sun down
Dawn so dark
Waited and waited 
Till I ran out!! Out of breath!

Beautiful City of Shame

Woe to the bloody city
it is full of lies and rapine
the prey departed not
the noise of the whip and 
the noise of rattling of wheels and
prancing horses and bounding chariots
the horseman mounting and 
the flashing sword and the glittering spear and
a multitude slain and a great heap of corpses and 
there is no end of the bodies, they stumble upon their bodies 
because of the multitude of the whoredome
of well-favored harlot, the mistress of witchcraft that sell
nations through her whoredomes and families through her
witchcraft, woe to the bloody city
how dreadful of you
your hands are filthy, you wear shoes as hard as a gong
whom you step on breaks.  your heart is as hard as steel
your eyes sees only hurt and death 
OH! precious city where does your beauty lies?

During the Darkness

found myself in the dark
cried out for help
but darker it was for anyone'
to hear my cry for.
darker it was for sight 
darkness dwelled through the veins
traveled through organs and all of the pieces
of my body
darkness tied me up
hands,feets ...
For Master of it all it was
nothing above his power
he found me, he head me
he was there,when no one was!

Empty

Nothing is what I feel 
Empty was my world 
I painted a picture, but it was blank 
Blank imaginations, blank feelings
Dark and wild place I was in
No one, nothing nobody ever heard me
Skies were so near, could count the stars 
The moon tried to smile but blood covered it
Anger creped in, frustrations and greed
Tried ease the pain but I eased my self
Empty and Emptier I felt 
Bins couldn't be Emptier 
Gongs couldn't cockles than I was
Evil brought the sunshine but felt NOTHING

Hurt To Love

i saw him passed by
once, twice with friends
my heart skipped a beat 
when i saw him standing there
my eyes couldn't keep away 
i couldn't hold my senses
i was so sure he is mine
i was so ready for his next move
answers, laughs, smiles 
prepared!
all i wanted was him to take my hand 
all i wanted was him to look me in my eyes
tell me am beautiful
tell me am the only one 
when am not fine 
all i wanted was him to hold me tight 
tell me am going to be fine
kiss my forehead and promise to be there
not lie
not hurt me
nor leave me
but i sat down
watching the love of my life live'
tear dropped 
heart almost stopped 
lost it all 
lost it all when she came his way
they hugged and walk away
i sat and watched him live!

Blinded

you couldn't see me
you couldn't feel me
i was standing right in front of you 
singing this sad song
standing here alone
hoping you come along
i think about you day in day out
i love myself enough to love you too 
i pray for you more than i pray for myself
yes in my prayers am holding you
in my eyes i see you 
yes i mean it when i say i love 
can you please respond now?
please just say you love me

What Kind of a Friend Are You

you said you love me and i belived you
but you failed me
you said you go be a perfect dad one day 
but you left and never looked back
you were standing there watching with a knife in you hand
you waited for a step so you be in a back 
you looked me deep in the eye while back stabbing me
you covered the wound with your whoredom 
you heard me cry, and wiped my tears 
you whispered life but you a living dead
what kind of a friend are you?
you gave me a shoulder to cry on 
you opened your arms wide 
you gave me a warm hug 
kiss on the forehead 
how sweet you were 
but evil burned inside you
couldn't hold it any longer 
you had to roar like lion 
fire out of your mouth
now i had to flee for my life 
since i was no longer thee love of your life but your prey
my love became my predator
thee individual i adore caused me more pain 
than i thought...
