Love Remains

Ties that bind
Can not be unwound
Blood we share
Shall not be impaired
Words we say
Are not in our head
Places we go
Show love we spent
Things we do
Or places we hid
Love remains

Nightmare

Nightmare

The light is gone and hid from view

It disappeared one day

And took with it the sun and moon

‘Caused joy to pass away

A glimmer is all ‘twould take

To make the world okay

But now our life blood spills away

And we wait in nightless day

We’ll feast on the returning

Step once more, into the fray

Until that day, we shall march forth

Keeping the nightmares at bay

Instincts

Instincts

Sometimes we all need to bay at the moon

To give into to our animal instincts

We need to fall to our knees and roll in the dirt

Feel the pounding of blood in our veins

Because it’s not always about the meter and rhyme

Sometimes we have to throw caution to the wind

For when we can’t be perfect

You may as well make as big a mess as possible

A little dirt under your nails

Only shows how hard you’ve toiled

Control

As I sit lost and hurt
Thoughts sped across my mind
Lying in dirt with a broken heart
Space and blood puddles in gallons at a time
The atmosphere is completely clear
Till my conscience starts to blur the sky
The trees start to sway
The breeze is not gentle
Lightning starts to streak
Hail and freezing rain
Falling, Failing to
Stop my
Heart from
Breaking
