and neither friend

on an iron steed

do we finally see

what's over the edge

at the end of the ledge

into the endless night

were dark is our sight

and neither friend

nor foe may we know

a great mystery lies beyond

at the end of our song

when our breathe does pause

our final decree; no clause

and every reason to

"You can't choose what stays and what fades away" Florence + Machine

to choke my self pity
to kick dirt on memory
to let it fall away
let the grip loosen this day

still some miles in this soul

no reason not to go

and every reason to

let love surround you

life is worth living

its worth forgiving

its worth trying again

its worth it my friend

we turn time and again

please stop the madness

can we spread some gladness

some good will to humans

and search for solutions

we always forget 

so to woe and regret

we turn time and again

remembering our sin

so once again

let the truth settle in

open the heart and the mind

for we are also all, human kind 

I did carry on

in the quiet night

we shed our light

and let our love spill

you know the drill

im still here

i did persevere

i did carry on

their papa did not let them down

and now near the end

of this glorious trend

i dont regret my time

protecting my queens light

the things i have lost

"you can't see the walls i'm bracing" -empty,  LetDown

stop hiding

stop running
the pain is only becoming
an unholy yearning

there is nowhere to hide
got to smash that pride
the things i have lost
and ne'er count the cost

this does allow
my pride to bellow
and gnash its teeth
to loves utter victory

The only one i am trying to reach

 the only solace i ever had
was on this blank canvas
its a simple thing
to express everything

im not speaking to you
nor to you
the only one i am trying to reach
is the author of this piece

hello in there i cry
how are you my guy
nothing answers back

im screaming into the black

That We Will Soar Aloft

 Far from perfect

Though we try to trick

Ourselves to believe

That the fault is not ours you see

We stumble onwards

Into a future hoping it’s not downwards

That We Will Soar Aloft

Or a landing that’s soft

We are only given

A day measured and woven

Into the fabric of time

One more day to continue our rhyme

To Let It Go

 To begin

Once again

To let the wind

Wander in our mind

To return

To continue to learn

To Let It Go

And let the glory show

God loves us all

No matter our fall

Let it be known

We live in heavens renown

To the finish line

"We are reaching for something that's already found us" -Jim Morrison

Step by careful step

We walk through regret

We leave behind pain

We let love reign

It's all a phase

Another leg of the race

To the finish line

When we rejoin the divine

The games we play

As we go through each day

The love we make

The hardships we take

over and over again

"sad woman take it slow - it will work itself out fine - all we need is just a little patience..."
Patience by GnR

i awoke
and my tears i did choke
for in my dream
your agony was plain and mean

you walk not alone
for it has been shown
over and over again
there is always an end to pain

in time the sun will shine
and it will all feel fine
you will remember you are precious
that your beauty leaves me breathless

i am holding my ground

"the story of my life - i give her hope - i spend her love until she's broke inside..."
The Story Of My Life - One Direction

I am writing the verses
against the darkest curses
i am holding the flame
against the deepest shame

i am standing long
against the twisted song
i am holding my ground
against the immoral sound

when its all said and done
what have you become?
when its all said and done
you'll see - i already won

To get too close

It's digging in

Getting closer to the win

It's slowly crushing

Everything it's touching 

No one cares

No one dares

To get too close

Its a howling screaming ghost

No where in this wide world

Is there a bright enough pearl

Of wisdom to counsel rest

The beast is hard to resist

No one will care

Please can't you see

That you're killing me

I don't know what to do

To stop feeling so blue

I'm going to die alone

Far from any throne

No one will care

Because I have nothing to share

It's all been taken

And I am forsaken

Cast out into the cold

Far from arms that hold

This simple knave

"You put your arms around me and I'm home"

Arms by Christina Peirri

I'll never make it

But I'll never shake it

This mountain I must climb

This destiny so divine

I'm not going to win

And though I may be free from sin

This simple knave

Doesn't get the save

So much between

A failure who has been

On the mountain side

And a loser with no pride

But never more

"Mr. Mojo rising... Got to keep on rising..."

LA Woman - The Doors

You are my kryptonite

Try as I might

To let you go

My heart does know

I pine for a home

A place to call my own

But never more 

Shall I find my door

Still even this poet

Can hope for it

A place of no lies

And no good byes

and just let things be

"and darkness has a hunger that's insatiable, and lightness has a call that's hard to hear..."
Closer to Fine - Indigo Girls


another day has come
under an old sun
we find our way
and banish the shadows away

its hard sometimes
to relax our minds
and just let things be
so much unease

still its all part of the plan
let faith reign in the land
be good, do good
it will be as it should

We are clay

"So you wanna play with magic..."

Dark Horse by Katy Perry

Looking out

Wondering what it's about

Wandering in

Reflecting on sin

There is no denying

There is no crying

We are clay

At play

Large to small

Low to tall

We play our roles

And cherish our souls

to do all i could

"Say something, I'm giving up on you"
-Say Something by A Great Big World

I stand apart
as it was in the start
so it ever shall be
until I am free

i tried and tried
with these tired eyes
to do i all i could
to be i all should

in the end
what does it matter friend?
nothing is ever good enough
no one has the right stuff

The way is prepared

A song was sung low

While the icy winds did blow 

But from winters dark heart

We find a new start

All is ready

Just hold steady 

The way is prepared

To those who would dare

Hold not to the night

But come into the light

A place is set

And you are well met

Confound and confuse

Let it move you
Let it shine true
Let the song scream forth
Bubble over with mirth

Choose not the way
of the spirits decay
Confound and confuse
vengeance's clues

deal not with darkness
spread your kindness
let peace reign
let all who will, sing
