I Have No Wisdom



I have no wisdom to write
Upon this page for you
No light to shine within so
You can see my inner soul

Yet you think what you read
Gives you insight about me
So you can tell me how
I should live my meager life

Why do you try and tell me
How to march to my drum
Throw no rocks for your windows
Have long been broken

Ask me not to shine
My light into your soul
For this light of mine
Burned out long ago

They'll Know

Here I sit pen in hand
To write what’s in my head
On this page the words I’ve put
Are written in blood now brown

What I write you will read
You’ll tell me, we think alike
But you’ll say, what I wrote
Are dreams of things unreal

You say my words spoke to you
And someday you’d like to write
Truly you, know not what torture is
For if I could, I’d stop this night

Can’t you hear those demons scream
“Write what you want about us there
Those mortals will never believe
What waits for them down below

Yet after death they’ll understand
What you wrote was subline
As they burn to ashes they’ll know
What is running through your mind”

Is All Lost:

As I write upon this page
What is running through my head
I wonder will anyone understand
Will these words be lost or read

Like the sand on an oceans shore
That just washes out with the tied
Are my words here like that sand
Will man and God watch them die

Maybe someday, some poor soul
Will trip upon those grains of sand
If they read them with their heart
They will cry for their fellow man

What was long ago, is true today
To keep my soul from the pit I dread
I try to write and hope you’ll read
what is running through my head

Serve not Him:

Those that walk upon this earth
Who serve their God below
Think they will someday rule
Yet in truth they’ll burn slow

On this earth they walk with pride
They know not what they’ll find
In that fiery pit full of woe
They’ll be consumed over time

Fire will pour from their mouths
Their skin will smoke for evermore
Bones will turn to ashes white
Then they’ll be again restored

Tho the fire burns white hot
From it no light will they see
Both the outside and from within
Will fry in that lava sea

Screams uttered from their lips
Will blend in with those below
None of us will cry for them
Our tears have dried up long ago

Hidden:


As we walk in the light
Our souls cling to us like shadows
Always hiding from the sun
Like our shadows, they run free
In the dark of night where we
Think neither God nor man can see
What hides deep within our souls
Telling ourselves tomorrow we’ll
Again be purified by the light
Yet we hide our shadow behind us
So no light can touch it and others
Cannot see what lies within
As we creep into those crevices
Our blacked souls will
someday overpower us forever

The Last Laugh

You thought I was really dead
Because you made me put
A bullet through my head

You’re telling, in hell I now roam
And all that smoke and flame
Will forever be my home

Sweetheart do not whine
For I’ve been told by them
You’ll be here in due time

Next to me, you will stroll
As I get to watch demons
Ripping apart your soul

Cry Not:

Cry not for me
No love did you show
No comforting words
Did I ever know

For years you told me
To suck it up, be a man
You don’t have time
To even hold, my hand

Yet when it’s for you
I’m just to do my job
Watch what I say
Don’t act like a slob

Now that I’m dead
I finally understand
I never could of been
Your perfect man

Pass By

Sitting here watching
Others rushing round
I care not what they’re doing
Or what they think they found

Someday I might wonder
Where they all came from
But why should I care
Doing nothing is more fun

Why is death clinging
At me instead of you
I beg I’m not ready
I have much more to do

Death smiles down at me
Don’t let those eyes cry
Because you just sit there
And let life pass you by

Last Thoughts:

Pain excruciating pain
Screams exploding in my head
Voices in the dark whispering
Laughter echoing to and fro
Icy hands touching me,
Where am I, who am I,
Is anyone there, none reply
This darkness is choking me
The pain gone, screaming silenced
Whispers just white noise far away
Nothingness is engulfing me
God is this my eternity

Battered Soul

The grief within
No one can see
This will to live
Is draining out of me

Yet the truth
No one knows
For none can see
This battered soul

They say this life
Has plenty to give
So why, within it,
I see no reason to live

Others scream out
Just listen to me
I’m never wrong
You’re sure to see

The pain is strong
I know it’s near
But is it life
Or death I fear
