I Tore Apart My Dream One Night
I tore apart my dream one night,
An act of desperation,
I burned everything I saw,
Along with my creations,
Searching for an answer
In the depths beyond the known,
I found what I needed,
Now I'm sitting here alone
Making friends with all my demons,
Bringing balance to this soul,
There must be darkness with the light,
For one to feel whole.

The Broken One
I will always be the broken one,
I never seem to find time for myself,
Trying to fix other people's problems,
Putting my own stress upon the shelf
And as the anxiety begins its slow ascent
Like an ocean tide, wave by wave
I feel like I'm tied to the floor, unable to breathe,
Forced to watch as it drags me to my grave

Only Gets Better
Everything moves so fast in life
So be sure to take a step back from time to time,
Give yourself some room to breathe,
And undo the damage, let your mind unwind
Cause we're only here for a few seconds
On the infinite timeline of the universe,
So enjoy every moment while you can,
This life only gets better after you've been through the worst.

A Starry Night
Alone here on a starry night,
I gaze into my own reflection,
The universe inside my eyes,
I know not of my own direction
I slip into another world,
One that comes alive at night,
When my eyes shut, I see it all,
My destination's in my sight
As I awake, I'm lost again,
No recollection of my dreams,
And my memory fades away,
Nothing's quite like what it seems

Abide in the Mystery
Abide in the mystery of life
And have faith in all that will be,
Find peace here, now, in the present,
And soon you'll be able to see,
Each path goes a different direction,
But all journeys lead to our death,
So live not in fear, or sadness or rage,
And waste not one moment or breath

My Dear Friend
Death came knocking on my door one night,
"Boy, you can't run forever"
"My dear friend, I'm not running, simply walking my path,
I'll see you when my thread is severed"
He walked into the dark with a satisfied grin,
Knowing just where my journey ends,
I'll see him again in the future, I know,
And we'll always remain as good friends

The Most Courageous Souls
We, the most courageous souls,
Were sent down here to stay,
We knew the risk, and came to help
The ones who lost their way
The strongest souls were trapped
Inside the bodies of the kings,
And some, forgotten myths,
Among the gods and human beings
We came here not to rescue them-
For they could not be freed,
But remind them of their other life,
Before their souls were seized

Who am I supposed to be?
Who am I supposed to be,
And what's my purpose here?
Life is such a mystery,
Most live their lives in fear
This journey that we seem to share,
It always leads to death,
Some will run, and some don't care,
We'll live 'til our last breath
So, waste no time along your way,
And leave the past behind,
Today is one more day
Along the road to our deadline

This is the Beginning
This is the beginning
Of a story with no conclusion,
A tale of souls, lost,
In search of a solution
A tragedy, a comedy,
A loop that never ends,
Same mistakes, made over,
'Til we all can make amends
In this vicious circle,
Few find their peace inside,
Hidden in the chaos,
Unseen by the naked eye
At a point along the journey,
The Way may yet be shown,
All the answers will come c...

A New Hope
A man blinded by the dark,
With faith, his only guide
He walks on to help lost souls
To see the light inside.
If they could only understand
The power that they hold,
They would find a hope in life,
A new path to unfold.

So is the unyielding weight of the world,
But a symbol of our own demise,
Binding us to the planet on which we walk,
Keeping us far from the reach of the skies.
Though, if we so choose to drop what we hold,
And see how it's caused us much pain,
The way may be shown, if our spirits were grown,
And we'd let go and dance in the rain.
(If we stay on our path of comfort and ease,
And conti...

The Journey's Just Begun
When you're angry at the world,
Coming closer to the edge,
Just remember who you are,
And step back from that ledge
Your heart, it emanates a love
So pure, and full of light,
And like the moon, illuminates
The darkest of nights
Sometimes the joy is hard to find,
You feel you can't hold on,
Have faith in life and stay a while,
The journey's just begun
Tuesday 9th February 2016 7:39 am
Even when the light inside the Mind goes very dim
Even when the light inside the Mind goes very dim,
The power of the Heart will still be there.
To guide you through the darkness when the times are feeling grim,
And remind you of the love that you once shared.
Just like the tide, it's ebb and flow,
Together with the Earth, we are attuned.
So breathe in slow, then let it go,
And time itself will help you heal the wound.
I apologiz...

A Joyous Light
A joyous light
To guide the way;
Another dawn,
Another day.
A pain that healed
And left a scar.
The journey, made,
We've travelled far.
Here, now, we stand,
Familiar souls,
Two different paths,
With one same goal:
To spread the word
We came to know.
To love, to serve,
To help them grow.
For they have not
The eyes to see,
The answers found
By you and me.
And so, we'll guide them
