    What Promise

    What promise can you give me
    What word can you say
    To make me believe you love me
    Not just wanting to throw my heart away.

     

    Will you lift me up
    To rise and know love once more
    Or
    Will you let me crash upon the rocks of life
    Bleeding 
    Dying
    To live no more

     

    I ask again 
    What promise 
    What word
    What bond
    Would make it worth to love you

    Dramatist

    Pity me from the angel's eyes,
    Whose teardrops shine in a selfish pry,

    Whiskey in a Mug, that earthly feel,
    Wrenched from the bone off the Amazon eel,

    Led into a hive, Bumblebees roar
    Brunettes being left dancing with a hacksaw,

    Born on Broadway, let them scream "Fantastica"
    Pictured for suicide, yet only a massacre.

    Jack-o-Lantern

    Jack-o-lantern your face is glowing from within, with eyes carved wide, evil spirits step aside
    Around the village, outside the house
    The glow is intense, through eyes, and wide  mouth.

    Angels Sing

    Oh come on angels sing
    Provide us with a beautiful hymn
    Calling out to all who hear them sing,
    sounding out their beautiful hymn,
    touching all from within,
    ringing in ears, bright not dim.

    White Rabbit

    Follow the white rabbit down the rabbit hole 
    Follow him to places unknown
    All is wonderful and fancy free
    An adventure for you and me

    Elves
    Dwarves and more
    Come come a brand new world to explore

     

    Follow the white rabbit down the rabbit hole 
    Follow the white rabbit and enjoy

    WHEN THE REAPER KNOCKS

    HELLO AND GOOD DAY

    I KNEW THIS MEET WOULD COME

    WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN

    HOW BAD AM I TO BE UNDONE

    COMMON IN TAKE OFF A LOAD

    A COFFEE AND SMOKE US TO SHARE

    I ACTUALLY PITY THE REAPER

    HES ALWAYS FULL OF DESPAIR

    I ASK HIM MY GOD MAN

    WHY THIS JOB

    I SYMPATHIZE EMBRACE AND FEEL TO YOUR DEED

    AS HE LOWERS HIS HEAD & REMOVES HIS HOOD

    TO MY VERY OWN MORTAL EYES MY FATHER STOOD

    FATHER FATHER WHY NOW JUST IN DEATH

    HE JUST SMILED AND PULLED ME TO HIS CHEST

    DEATH BED A HALLOWEEN TALE

    HERE WE ARE WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT

    OUR LIFE HAS  COME TO AN ABRUPT HALT

    IS THIS OUR THYME WITHIN GOOD REASON

    OR HAVE WE TURNED IN BECAUSE OF THE SEASON

     

    WERE WE CALLED HOME

    OR DID WE ABUSE

    OUR LOVE LIFE AND LEGACY

    PRETENDING TO MUSE

    OR

    WAS HE ALWAYS THERE

    PLANTING EVERY THOUGHT THRU YOUR DAY

    WERE WE MISLEAD

    OR

    LEAD HOME TO STAY

    IMMORTAL THESE TEXTS 

    IF EVER REREAD

    I WRITE THEM BEFORE 

    OR WHO KNOW2S

    ON MY DEATH BED

     

    EMCOMPASSED IN THE COMPASS

    THE LINEAGE OF TIME

    THE IMAGINARY THOUGHT THAT ALL EVEN COINCIDES

    WILL MY FLESH ROT IF PULLED FROM THE GROUND

    UNEMBLAMBED WITHIN A TINDER BOX OF PINE

    OR

    TOSS ME INTO THE BLOOD OF THE LORD

    HIS FIRE PURIFIES ALL MANS DISCORD

    MUSIC MAN

    YOU PLAY MY HEART LIKE A CELLO

    THINKING I WILL NEVER FRAY OR SNAP

    BRANDED ME A PUBLIC LIAR

    COMMITING ME UNRIGHTFULLY INTO A PYRE

    LABLED WICKED WEAK AND INSANE

    PURELY FOR YOUR AMUSEMENT

    HORSE HAIR IS NOT STAINLESS STEEL

    YOUR BOW WILL SURELY GIVE 

    EVENTUALLY TO BE RESTRUNG YOUR NOTHING BUT A SIEVE

    IF I JUST A STATISTIC

    YOU MELODY YOUR RIGHT

    THIS MUSE OF SOUL AND BEAUTY 

    YOU TOO SHALL BEHOOVE 

    WHEN GIVEN LAST RITES

    THIS HERATIC PURGES WHIL...

    THE DEVIL THREW ME A BONE

    THE DEVIL HE OFFERED ME THE WORLD 

    HE LAID IT AT MY FEET

    LOOK YOU WRETCHED WOMAN THEY SOLD YOU OUT TO ME

    SEE THERE HEARTS THEY LIE IN WAIT

    TO STEAL YOUR SHEEP CASH AND FATE

    HE HAD ME FOR A TIME OR TWO

    MY TOUNGE I SEE CAN BE FORKED LIKE YOU

    MY FAITH THOUGH YOU KNOW IS RELENTLESS AND GROWN

    THE PREIST THAT FORGAVE ME MADE HIM GO  MAD

    THE ONE I BEGGED FOR HELP HE THREW ME BACK TO THE WOLVES HOW SAD

    ALL WHILE I CARRIED YOUR HOOVES

    UPON MY BACK ARE A PAIR OF TATTOOED EYES

    CARRYING THIS PACK

    TRAMP STAMP YOU S...

    I am who I am

    I am who I am
    You may not like me
    But that's ok
    You are entitled to that

     

    However 
    I will not change who I am
    Just to be liked by you
    You either accept me or you don't 
    That choice is yours

     

    I am who I am
    I am a strong willed person
    With opinions and ideas
    That may not agree with yours
    So be it

     

    Just because we don't agree on somethings
    Doesn't mean we can't be friends 
    As long as we respect each other
    A friendship can grow
    If however you wish to not be friends 
    So be it
