He could have come to rule the world,

he should have been a king.

He could have had all that he want,

but then what would it bring?

For he knew who he was and also

what the world would need.

Thus, he chose life a poor man’s son

who lived a life to bleed

upon the cross, between two thieves,

completely left alone.

‘Twould seem at glance a failure

It seems that life’s a limbo so if eternity is as well,

it’s hard to not conclude that every outcome will be hell.

For everything we do, in time fades into mundane dust.

The shiny steel of bliss today each next day gains more rust.

So how can Heaven hold its awe when eons pass like days?

For golden streets walked once too oft seem normal in their ways.

and as I dreamt I looked to see

a town that lay downstream below.

In dead of night, they did not know

that little time rema...

So, then he went to them and asked, "Why have ye labored not?"

They answered, "We have not been hired though labour we have...

I thought to change one hair tonight

from white to black, atop my head.

It seemed a try would be alright

while lying here upon my bed.

I called out to the powers that be

in all their forms amidst the sky,

but nothing changed at all for me

though I had given my best try.

I guess it’s human nature

to control the things at hand.

To try and make sure ever...
