Heart is apart of soul and one man is part of every man, rich or poor lost or found






Author Note: Forgive me the troubles of the world have taken me off the deep end









In the morning of my birthing
I will walk the will of God

Water falls in tears
of living
oh the soft pain of my life

Wild the vision
of my beginning
in days of
early strife

Count the blessings of the father in my hours of faith

Touch my soul
in a crying
of death defying hurt
and grace

No man can
ever pull
all the strings
that hold my heart

Comfort my all my yearnings in a valley deep in hope

Values drip
screams in will
trying to hold
voice

Shame takes its place
in heart bleeding
on love

Silver pieces and oil soaked hair escape from man

Trouble keeps me
in the hold
of a sad memory

Can you not
keep me free
of this feeling
please

Lady of the hour take the soul and let it rest

Stop please
stop in the will
escaping burden
and pain left

Will you carry
part of me
to a rest
in peace needed
now

Bleeding heart of the son glows in my tired eyes

Tiger of lamb
keeps the pardon
moving past
the image given

I need a palace
a place
to sleep
Oh Lord
why
have I failed
you this time

Fingers touch me to the soul of a mixed and troubled mind

Last victim stops to see you
a child
take my hand
there is a place
for you

Taste me one more time
before I go past the river of dreams
and lost souls seeking

Little child of my memory takes to a rivers deep in the valley of the shadow of death I sleep

Wanton body
stops in black pages
filled by color exploding
to read words dead

Craft is seen as the will
and the light
a bridge that enters
earth to heaven to hell

Milling stones of hatred hand about my neck in view come and believe as I believe in you

Pick the bones clean
to soul and faith
lingering in only nightmares
kept dripping

So lost in fear
and reason reaching
for air losing each part
I know of me

Angels of a guardian touch me releasing all the sorrow that I still hold in keeping

Gone all is gone
nothing left
only shadows
of what was
and is empty
as is my soul

Eyes stop
searching the horizon
and I cry
from the depth
of being
the lies
the lies

In the vision I have left I can seem to release all the guilt I have built in pursuit of greed

Earth reeks of man
and the stench
is real as time
lives the ruminants
of a mistake

Face is scared
forever as light fails
and the crust splits
gobbling up all
Let tin plated path

All my world is exploding into a kaleidoscope of lost purpose in lingering sleep

Walls collapse
and the will of God
has been tested
to his limits
and all truth
is consumed

Flames rip
and travel
from end to end
as the nashing of teeth
is final
all left empty
but free
