Formidable Foe

They are coming...

tonight in the dark

they will cry out and bark

hunting down their mark

i shall need more than luck.

They are coming...

i can hear them breathing

behind the bushes, they are hiding

patiently they are waiting

for me to tire from running.

They are coming...

my heart races inside me

but still, i am trying to see

who hides behind that tree

and wondering, if he could see me.

They are coming...

i know i have no time

i have committed no crime

and i've yet to reach my prime

so i slowly start to climb.

They are coming...

so i sling back my bow

and up the tree i go

where i'll wait for tomorrow

till they chase me no more.

Seeking Salvation

I was always told life was about balance 

the same way i was told that living was a challenge

couldn't deny that that may have caused some damage

because knowing the truth didn't stop the carnage.

What if we were all born as equals on this stage?

and no one had to fight about race, gender or age

we could have lived peacefully without rampage

without having to lock our own brothers in a cage.

We were all born in his image they say

but now 'He' looks a certain particular way today

more like some and less like most they say

those who are less; obviously have to pay. 

There is no remorse where dead bodies lay

instead there is greed that makes unwelcomed guests stay

to take way what is left at the now unwatched bay

in darkness the demon in man cunningly comes out to play.

When we come to the end there will be a revelation

most certainly the cruel will face certain damnation

for all the things they have done to 'His' creations

much worse than being banished from every nation.

This will spark a realization that we have been fed with fiction

the race of man would be free from its undying infactuation

with power and greed and lies and other fascinations

man would go back to the beginning by seeking salvation.

Hello Goodbye

i knew i had always wanted you

i was always waiting for you

you came with summer's sun

all bright and promising fun

but alas my handsome hero

i was scared so i hid in my burrow

you galloped in my life on a white horse

you came so gently without any force

eventhough i've dreamed for us a life together

i know for now this cannot go any further

i'm not ready to hold you, to love you

gallop away white knight and wait for your que

when the time is right

i will welcome you without fright

embracing you like warmth from a fire

i know you will fulfill my every desire

your smile shall brighten every dark corner

i may even wish you had returned sooner

but now is not that time

my delicate heart knows its a crime

to turn down such a beautiful blessing

but my mind knows what i would be facing

therefore i am returning you to your kingdom

and i'll wait for your return to grant me my freedom
