Pantoum of an Orchid

sprawling like an orchids roots
stretching for morning air
enlightened with the sunshine
a blossomed red lotus

stretching for the morning air
emerging from the water
a blossomed red lotus
revitalized and refreshed

emerging from the water
mind and soul cleansed
revitalized and refreshed
clarity is understanding

mind and soul cleansed
seeking true nirvana
clarity is understanding
steering the wheel of Dharma

seeking true nirvana
underneath the Bodhi Tree
steering the wheel of Dharma
my truth empowers me

underneath the Bodhi Tree
I ponder my truth and fantasy
my truth empowers me
I walk the path chosen for me

I ponder my truth and fantasy
I am understanding my destiny
I walk the path chosen for me
I am on an envigorating high

I am understanding my destiny
reaching for air to blossom
I am on an envigorating high
the true nature of phenomena

reaching for air to blossom
sprawling like an orchids roots
the true nature of phenomena
enlighted with the sunshine

The Blast

I crawled through withered ash

your charred corpse lies in the past

beneath the ashes

as the fire passes

buried under residue from the Blast

digging out from the wreck

the stench of burning flesh

impossible conditions

a hopeless mission

I’m scrambling through this mess

a nuclear genocide

fighting for mankind

I left you to die

so I could survive

How could I ever leave you behind?

Our World Our Hate

Our World, Our Hate

A small amount of hate lies inside us all.

This hate can dwell, consume and divide us all.

You may not show it, hate is not always something you share.

Discomfort, judgement, pride and prejudice are all because of fear.

Please, Stop passing this fear to our children. Remember this hate has been taught.

It was passed down from generations of neighbors that have fought.

Hate has seperated us, slaughtered us and enslaved us.

We hate for of our god, because Satan has craved us.

Hate breeds, plagues, lingers and remains.

Hate is only passed on, so we must make a change.

Change isn't just gonna come, we have to make it happen.

Break this murderous cycle and put down our weapon.

It's a tremendous challenge to stop all the wars caused by hate,

but we can make a change, we do choose our world's fate.

Teach our children that we are all different, special and unique.

Take notice of our judgements and watch how we speak.

Embrace our cultures, our foods and our arts.

Open our minds, taste the fruits of our world and open our hearts.

If we could understand our differences and agree to disagree.

Imagine how much better our world would be.

Smothering the Flame

Raging flames to wilted ash

That inferno could never last

Molten lava to stone cold rock

The fire in your eyes is now just dark

Our fire once burned with fury, rage and lust

Our burning passion is now dry as dust

You became too engulfed in the flame between us

But just like fire needs oxygen, we needed trust

You can’t control a fire

and it’s too hard to tame

So you suffocated me

just like the flame

In your attempts to keep this blaze alive

You just put it out with all your lies

That glorious flame that sparked our fire

The emotion, the passion and the sizzling desire

You tried to protect it, but you tried too hard

Now we’re both burnt out, scorched and charred

You did all you could to save the fire we shared

But you were smothering the flame, it had no air

You cant control a fire

and it's to hard to tame

So you suffocated me

just like the flame

The fire weakened

with every tear that I cried

Slowly extinguishing the flame,

until the fire died

well... we tried

Armor

I can see through you
see through your lies
you put on so much armor
but it's no disguise
your secrets are buried under your flesh
to dig them up is your last wish
you never ask for pity
yet you shame yourself
ashamed of yourself
you never ask for help
the pain inside lingers like purgatory
unsettled and unresolved
an untold story

Across This Vast Ocean Pt. 1

Across this vast ocean, my spirit is being snatched.
I've floated away, so alone and detached.

I've crossed this ocean in an effort to move foward.
Yeah, I'm on a path, but what's that path headed toward?

Uncertainty has led me here and uncertainty draws me back.
My will keeps me here and it's to late to retract.

There is an ocean between us cluttered with wreckage.
I tell you we can cross it but you never get the message.

This ocean is tremendous and I'm on the other side.
Crossing it may seem impossible, if you've never tried.

Across this Vast Ocean pt. 2

Across this vast ocean, my spirit has been snatched.
I've floated far away, so alone and detached.

I gaze across this ocean for a glimpse of reality now lost.
My hope is shattered and this is the cost.

Saying goobye was brutal, your face was so final.
Everything was so unsettled and I left in denial.

Your blame and my guilt sinks us in this ocean.
The weight and the burden anchors me from motion.

The ocean between us becomes ever more vast.
The magic between us has become the past.

In this vast ocean hope drifts away.
In this vast ocean our love is astray.

There is something greater than this vast ocean standing in our way.
So, across this vast ocean, I will stay.

my world far away

All life's little things
always missing out on them
every happening

the births of children
the weddings unattended
funerals of friends

my world far away
an ocean between my life
where ever I stay

HEROIN!

Heroin...
why do you exist?
Heroin...
why can't people resist
the bitter sweet taste of your poison.
Your a morbid curse that nobody would have chosen.


Heroin...
your like a vampires bite,
spreading evil through their veins
rushing inside, but still as night.
You torment minds, making them deranged,
but without you, they become estranged.

Your power, your fury.
Their weakness, their purity.

Dirty spike, disgusting truth,
troubled souls, innocent youth.

Heroin...
I'm enraged by your sins.
Your an intricate game
that nobody can win.

Zombifying those I know
and luring them to your potent flow.

Heroin...
why do people crave your rabid injection?
Heroin...
why do people glorify your lethal infection?

Heroin...
Why did you take him from me?
Heroin...
why do you create such misery?

Heroin...
like Satan you claimed his soul!
Heroin...
You possesed him, you took control!


Heroin...
you took it all, until there was nothing left!
Heroin...
You even took his last gasping breath!

SMACK!

You are death!

Polluted

fragile and frail

but eager to stray

better to have a good time

and be in harms way

misjudgement of character

or attraction to swine

was it decision

or weakness to decline

hazed perception

polluted mind

outnumbered

weak and confined

unutterable actions

guilt unjustified

unsettled disgust

socially denied

plagued by scathe

pained to remind

irremovable dirt

fear redefined

burden of filth

permeable grime

penetrated by

an altering crime
