When I See Through

When I See Through

 

I know more than I suppose so I thank my visions,

Everything you hide away from me begins to force a decision,

Out of sight, out of mind, doesn’t mean out of the picture,

Rather than saying what I really feel I’ll revert to scripture,

“Whatever’s done in the dark must come to the light”

Even when you tell me, “Everything’s all right”.

Please, don’t force me to dig in the dirt

To uncover the lies, rumors, and truths that hurt.

You were suppose to be my friend, my lover, my pleasure

What kind of value do you have to betray that treasure?

You’re supposed to be strong, while I’m not there

But I realize I’ve been mistaken, because you’re not there

What remains is a shell of who you used to be

The fires been burned out and now you’re losing me

This is my last plea, last attempt, to salvage what’s lost

You need to know, and once known, you’ll understand the cost.

A Cure So Easy

A Cure So Easy

I’m in need, in need of hope
I cannot cling to the first thing I see
Because a cure so easy, is not for me

Through a meticulous search, I head in the right direction
In tow, not a foe, but the right protection
What I neglect to put first is what I need the most
Please save me from myself I need a Heavenly Host.

I’m in need, in need of hope
I cannot cling to the first thing I see
Because a cure so easy, is not for me

Swaying like a boat tossed in the midst of a storm
Filled with my own deception, I’m swallowed by youth
Through time and enough grace, I’m sent back on my stroll
With enough armor and weapons to protect my soul.

I’m in need, in need of hope
I cannot cling to the first thing I see
Because a cure so easy, is not for me

I cannot cry or shed a tear, this harvest is mine
I know that the healing will come in time
Longsuffering a stretch, to persevere through pain
These tribulations build character, just call His name!
Jesus, I need you to be my hope
Jesus, I have the faith that’s desired of most
Jesus, I thank you because you died for me
Your grace, your grace Lord is enough for me
Jesus, I need you so the joy can last
Jesus, I thank you for forgiving my past
Jesus, walk with me and guide my way
Jesus, I praise your name today!

Visions

“Visions”

Here’s the balance to the equation
I’m the seeker of truth
I’ve held office in every station
Since I’ve held my nerve…
I’ve reached the curve of contradictions, false truths and conniptions
And tried to sort through the mayhem
But I’m seeking the lost.
The cost of a medic, the sutures and antiseptic,
Couldn’t mend the life scar inflicted by Christ
Those who lose their life will win it, and a message to the cynics,
My unfinished memoirs can open my past.
On the brink of insanity, the Lifestreams draining
Those captured in the maelstrom are feigning their sleep.
The awake to the wails of sirens, alarms and bells
And drift through the confusion; the illusion of peace.
It’s all vain glory, and I’ve observed it all.
From construction to destruction, the rise and the fall.

Maps in Space


“Maps in Space”

The summer’s heat…Soaking Wet
My mind recoils to something dead
As I wade through the mine fields
I connect the dots in space

Impressions seep…deep in thought
Astral travels, the mind gets lost
Pagan rituals soothe the mainstream
As the queen remodels the door

Different views…I can’t see
Trapped in 3rd person, so hard to breathe
Blackness crawls through the valleys deep
And the angels continue to war

Forest screams…sheltered beast
Jesus hand, the winds are ceased
Lightning calls, the hidden paths restored
As the king remodels the door

Kingdom come…thy will be done
Satan scoffs…the shepherds run
Trumpets sound, sounds of armor clash
I connect the dots in space

The leopards speak…cheetah’s dance
The image blurs the shamans’ trance
The castle echoes, sunlight sets the tone
I digress in life alone….
