• Torn
    It’s hard to turn away
    Even the thought takes effort
    Knowing that this..,
    This thing between you and I
    Well has no real end
    There was a beginning
    Way back when…

    I should leave
    I am the embodiment of the word toxic
    I know my faults
    My shortcomings
    I know that…
    Still, I cannot leave

    This thing is like a bungie cord
    I drop…Read More

  • Steadfast Flame

    Do not tire, do not fade
    your small light still guides the way.

    Lift your hands, whisper your hope
    let mercy fall where hearts are closed.

    Breathe, and breathe again
    grace softens stone
    faith carries flame.

    Rise each day
    extend your hand
    your devotion flows
    into the unseen, the unheard
    everlasting.

  • Peace not Granted

    Oh come to me sacred peace
    Unknowingly they participated
    Volumes reaching levels unprecedented

    Oh, come to me in sweet silence
    For one more vowel of consonant spoken
    I will meet the judge and jury

    I see my end near…
