Lies are the absence of
Truth
Lies are nothing
But the enemy

Something Beyond the Veil

What if I told you this is all just a game
Dark forces have control of the earth
They control the governments
Pitting this group of people
Against another
Both believe they are right
Both believe they know everything there is to know
It's...

The Pawn

Public figure
Associated with praise
Of something good for humanity
Pretty pictures painted
Pretty lies spewed
They look quite amazing
They sound quite enchanting
But once the truth comes
Trickling through
Like the sands of time

The Beast and Machine

The Eye of Sauron,
A war of the unseen,
Good and evil clash,
The Earth;
A battleground,
This is ground zero,
Data tracking,
Computer chips,
Digital prison,
Watchmen -
Watching,
The innocent
Butchered or
Torn apart,
To bring about our ...

Speak

How many poems did you trash,
delete, or second guess?
Words have meaning,
They hold power,
To shape and mold,
To think and unfold,
Do not be reckless in what you speak,
For there is power in your...

Dead & Dry

Statues of cold
as firm and steady as the ground
There is no love here,
hope,
or pain,
There are no colors here
only shades of between
Endless white skies
and endless black nights
In a world dead and...

Nightmare: Unclean

Sharp lines and
Medical beds
Stark walls
A metal table
I'm bound by IVs
And dripping
Poison
This place isn't for my health
It's a trap
And scientific research
My body;
A lab rat

I unhook myself from their contraptions,
Dragging my...

Alpha and Omega

Your light washes over me;
Cleansing me,
I surrender to your purity,
Ridding of all my impurity,
Whether it be my end, or
A new beginning,
My absolution,
Our Father
The Alpha and
Omega...

The Masquerade

On the surface
Fun and mysterious
Lighthearted chatter
Elegant gowns
And handsome suits
Animal masks
Embellished ones
Or maybe even plain
All serving their purpose
That does intrigue
But behind them all
Sharp smiles
Dark eyes
A...

His Guidance

You set my soul on fire -
With eyes of blue -
Your love sets me free, and
It is because of you;
I have found my way
You led me along the weary path
And made each step better than the last
In your love, I see Him
Working through your every...

The Wolf

eyes
watching
waiting
still as a statue
waiting for the time to strike
pretending to not be a threat
a bobcat

I know it's fake
it is real -
but a deceiver
it's hungry
for me

in a breeze passing by
from behind me
running...

Something In Nothingness

Dark and bleak
Cold and barren
Frozen
Moonlight
Someone, something
Watches;
Waiting
Nothing will grow here
Nothing goes on here
What you do here
Is your choice
Good or evil
Hope or loss
Will you cry out to the one you love
Our Father,...

Clever Snake

Into the garden he slithered in
With one goal in mind
To drag -
Down -
Humankind
His army breaks way
Causing choas and decay
Hunger, fruitless, desperation
Sets in

He speaks in songs of velvet,
Lies minced with truth,
Careful not to...

God Is Love

God's LOVE
The most beautiful thing
He creates with a purpose
His most tender attention
To detail
In every breath
His love for us
And all His creation
Infinite
Unimaginable
Even to the most brilliant mind
But by His most loving...

Death Aura

Black aura
It glows
Pulsing
It shines, but
Doesn't illuminate
It's not transparent
It consumes
Their eyes
Are void
A void
But they see
Lifeless
They stare

Pride: The Downfall

Pride;
The downfall,
Pride;
It tells us to,
Be proud of your nation,
Be proud of your race,
Your sex -
Be proud if you're gay,
Or straight,
Your religion
Or faith,
That thing that whispers,
Don't give in,
If you are wrong -
Because...

I run; To my only salvation
I run; To His solid foundation
In His Love; I find where I belong,
Until we meet again
I run; To the shadow of your wings
In your love; I am finally...

What is war?

War or
Human sacrifice;
Demons,
Pulling strings,
Whispers,
Temptations,
Fear,
Pride,
They remain...

Life in Beauty

There is life in beauty
The light in her eyes,
The hope in his heart,
The sigh of relief,
And joyous weeping,
Laughter that fills the air,
Without a care,
Even the sweet sound of your name,
Called from a loved one

There is beauty in life,...

Dark Soldier

Dark soldier there
Walking
Dim is the light in your eyes
And heavy with burden

Your past is haunted
With years of torment and
Neglect
Did you forget to love yourself?

Your love so deep, but hollowed out,
The void it grows
Did you...

Trapped: Nightmare

Eighty thousand people in a football stadium.
Trapped. Armed guards,
troops, march in.
They won't let us out.
They say there is a problem.
We are unclean and unhealthy.
We are a danger to everyone.
But the soldiers aren't right.

The Song of a Treasure

O' beautiful soul,
Who cares for the old,
Prepares for the young,
And sees to the weary,
Whose love is rarely told,
But it is surely shown

Noticed even less
And appreciated at best,
Beautiful soul,
You stand the test of time
Like an...

Contagion: Sin

In limbo: we ignorantly know-it-all,
But nothing of substance
To one's soul

In lust: we create pleasure
-For a thrill-
In our dull state

In gluttony: we overindulge
To fill a hungry void
Within

In greed: we hoard,
What we fear to...

Passion

Upon a plain canvas,
A pale blue sky,
With wisps of fluffy white,
And golden light.
Strokes of paint,
An artist sigh,
Relief is all that's needed,
As passion ensues,
Another gaze outside,
Drawings of color,
Across a bed of grass,
Wavy...

Lion, Wolf, and Sheep

This day shall pass
the end of a raging sea
and a new dawn will come
with fields of gold
and wildflower meadow
upon the lake shore
a boy will sit in peace
with his lion, wolf, and sheep
while they soundlessly...

A Dream of Fire and Stone

Ten years to prepare
Ten long years; waiting.
Wait for the sign,
It comes at night,
It blocks out the moon -
A ring of fire -
Its halo -
Is it day
or is it night?

He's coming,
he's here
He comes in confident strides
Pure intent that is...

Words,
Like lyrical singing,
With numerical meaning -
An art -
Form -
Your word,
An eternal song
Of healing,
To my dreary,
Heart.
A beacon of light
